I gave Marcus a look. "We aren't going to kill him. Though, if he keeps trying to hit on me, I may change that decision later."

Marcus's fingers tightened around his container. Reaching out, I placed my hand on one of his large ones and squeezed slightly. He looked up at me.

"I'm just kidding. I can handle Jack Biggs." I said with distaste and then smiled at Marcus.

Marcus stared back at me, his expression softening as he placed his other hand on top of mine. "Yes. You can."

The tension in the room thickened the longer he looked at me. I didn't want to look away, but I wasn't sure what to do next. Marcus was so different from the others. I basically just had to treat them like guys to figure them out. Well, except Antoine. He was just an ass who apparently got off on me telling him to fuck off. It made the sex all the better though.

Marcus thankfully took the lead, shifting in his seat so that he leaned across the table. I angled my head up as he lowered his down to mine. My lashes lowered in anticipation of what was to come. Would it be like before? When we'd been in the dungeon of the vampire hunter's guild, we basically tried to devour each other with our kisses. However, we were both running high on adrenaline and the blood-feeding. I didn't know if that was an anomaly or if it was always that way with Marcus.

The first faint brush of Marcus's lips slid across my cheek. First one side and then the other, skipping over my lips each time. I found myself trying to turn my head toward him with each pass, getting more frustrated when I was left wanting.

My eyes flipped open only to find Marcus staring right at me. Those dark orbs, so brown that they were almost black, bored into me. I found myself staring back at him, unable to close my eyes or look away as he lowered his face once more.

His mouth captured mine, this time in a chaste but firm kiss. One that felt much different than the others with my eyes wide open. More intimate somehow. My tongue dipped out to taste him, but Marcus moved away.

"Have a good night, Piper." Marcus stood, his gaze on me until he left the room.

When he was out of my sight, I released a long breath and grabbed the side of my head, utterly turned on just from one little kiss. "Fuck."
