Her forehead creases, a glare turning her facial features downward. She taps her sister’s shoulder, and points in my direction; Caroline squints at me, then at Boyd, her jaw dropping open slightly.
Two years ago, their father tried auctioning the elder sister off to me in an attempt to pay off his debts. I’d never admit it publicly, but his offer wasn’t one I’d ever consider; not only does an arranged marriage make my dick perma-soft, but Miss Priss would never have been able to satisfy me.
Juliet, though, is a different story. She’s hauntedjustenough that I’m beginning to think I could do whatever I wanted and she’d lie there and take it.
Like a good little slut.
There’s a sharpness in her gaze, though, that suggests she might resist at first, put up that bratty defense, but I don’t mind; I’ll relish in breaking her. Have her eating from the palm of my hand as if she can’t fucking live without me.
Dragging myself from her frosty blue eyes before I bust a nut from imagination alone, I turn on Boyd, dropping the chain back beneath my shirt collar and stuffing my hands in my pants pockets.
“What are you doing?” he asks, nodding over my shoulder. “Why are you harassing Juliet Harrison?”
“I’m not harassing her.”
“Then why does she look like she wants to murder you?”
Turning my head slightly, I slide a quick glance from the corner of my eye; sure enough, she’s still watching me, staring daggers into my back. They’d hurt if I had any conscience at all.
“She walked in on me and Mel earlier this evening. Thought I was raping her.”
He clips out a laugh. “RapingMel? I don’t think she’s ever even learned the word no when it comes to sex.”
The comment sends an uneasy ripple through me, but I swallow over it, acting unaffected. “In any case, it was a mere misunderstanding. She doesn’t seem to have taken it well. I guess she thinks of herself as the savior to womankind, or something.”
“Not a savior, but not a silent bystander, either.” Her lilted voice floats in around me, a chirping that sets my skin on fire. It’s hard to decide if the flames are pleasurable, even as I move around to face her.Fuck, she’s even more beautiful by moonlight. “I doubt I can save all women from you, but at least I stopped you tonight before you did anything worse.”
A grin spreads across my lips, pulling them back over my teeth before I can stop it. “And I told you, I wasn’t doing anything to her that she didn’t ask me to.”
“I find it hard to believe anyone would want to pass out with a dick in their mouth.”
“Well, kitten,” I choke out, a knot rising in my throat as I rake my gaze over her tight little body, a hunger igniting within I’ve never felt before. “Maybe you’re not sucking the right dicks.”
“Jesus Christ.” Boyd shifts, eyes darting between us. Heat radiates off her body, drawing me in, and mine sways, trying to press closer to her. I fist my hands in my pockets, restraining myself, and he takes a step forward, offering her a handshake. “Sorry, my friend here has no manners. I’m Boyd Kelly.”
“I know who you are. Cyber Engineer at Ivers International, right?” Cracking a smile, she levels me with a pointed look. “Wasn’t that your job, at some point?”
Gritting my teeth, I force my smile wider. “I resigned. You’re gonna have to try harder if you want to rile me up.”
“I don’t want to do anything to you.”
“No?” I slide closer, edging my friend out of the picture. She tilts her chin up, not looking away, even as I tower over her.Jesus, she’s small.Malleable. I’d give anything to take her home tonight, strap her to my bed, and lick the skin clean off her body. Fuck her until she offers her soul on a silver platter. “What’re you doing over here, then?”
“You have something that belongs to me.”
“Mm, you’ll have to be more specific.”
Her jaw clenches, the muscles in her cheek jumping as she struggles not to lash out. Violence practically vibrates from her body, the desire to accost me making her tremble.
Hit me, baby. Make me bleed.
Boyd clears his throat, shoving me back with his shoulder. He stares down at Juliet the wayI’mstaring at her—like the Big Bad Wolf who’s three seconds away from devouring her—and I fucking hate it. Want to slit his throat and watch the desire leave his body along with his blood.
“If this guy has something of yours, I can almost guarantee you don’t want it back.” He hooks his thumb in my direction, and I resist the urge to reach out and bend it ‘til it breaks. My parents are due back any minute, and that won’t look well. “There’s no telling where he’s had it.”
She blinks at him, pursing her lips. “Maybe, but this is important.”
“Why?”
