I bite my bottom lip.
He touches my chin. “You know, I just might have to sign you.”
“What?”
“That’s right. I’ll sign you to my label. Right now.”
“Cullen, stop.”
“You’ll be in the studio. Recording. I’ll make you famous.”
“Do you think that’s what I want?”
“Tell me it hasn’t crossed your mind, love.”
“How about we leave therock star dreamsfor another time,” I whisper.
“That’s a good idea. I have something else in mind for-”
There’s a hard thudding knock at the door.
Then it opens.
“Sorry, Cullen,” Mattia says. “We have to talk. We have to go for a ride.”
Cullen looks back at Mattia. “Right now?”
“Right fucking now,” Mattia says. “Laz is loaded up. Ronan is on his way. Gabriele will stay and stand guard.” Mattia looks at me. “Not sure if you want-”
“I’m right there,” Cullen says.
Mattia doesn’t close the door.
“Cullen,” I say.
“No,” he says. “I’ll walk you out. Drive right back to theThorns.”
I want to know what’s happening.
But Cullen moves fast.
He packs up my guitar and rushes me outside to the golf cart.
“Don’t stop for anything or anyone,” he says.
“What…”
Cullen quickly kisses me.
His lips to mine.
His tongue sweeping across my bottom lip.
Then he takes off toward the house, calling out orders.
I climb into the golf cart and begin to drive.
I assume something dangerous is going on and Cullen is protecting me from it.
