I loved the feel of her body clinging to mine. I was tormenting myself, getting myself to the edge, then stopping, and I felt like a selfish bastard. I wanted this to be as good for her as it was for me.
I held her up with one arm and went to rub her off, but she stopped my hand, her lips pulling back from mine.
“My family is waiting. We—” She gasped because she tried to stop me mid-movement. Then her eyes locked with mine. “Finish in me.” I froze. She placed her hand to my cheek. “We’re safe.” And I believed her. I usually wouldn’t believe a woman saying that to me, thinking they were out for my money or trying to baby-trap me.
But I believed her. I cupped her cheek with my hand, bringing her lips back to mine as I fucked her, freely, her soft moans encouraging me. And when I finished, I realised I’d found it—I found the meaning of addiction. As I stilled, her head fell to my shoulder. My breathing was fucking sharp, and my heart raced.
She kissed my neck as I pulled out of her, helping her get steady on her feet, wanting an excuse to keep my hands on her.
Then I didn’t know what it was, but I needed to kiss her. So when she was steady, I cupped her face, bringing my lips to hers, and this time, I kissed her softly, as if she were made of porcelain.
She didn’t say anything as she pulled back. A soft smile graced her lips before she walked towards her adjoining bathroom.
I cursed under my breath as I pulled my jeans up, doing my belt. What the fuck had I done? I was positive I had just fucked up my one shot with her and ruined our friendship. I heard the toilet flush, and I told myself to get some sort of fucking control. Then she walked out, and my eyes went back to her. I was reminded at this moment the reason for my insanity—Holly Kincaid.

Holly
“You get that prep work done?” Kobra asked me from across the table. I had to say that dinner felt somewhat normal as I sat next to Creed with my family. Conversation flowed, and Dad didn’t glare at Creed nonstop. Kobra was making an effort, which made me wonder what he was up to.
“No, not yet,” I answered him. “Sort of getting nervous the more I read.” I was surprised Kobra had even listened to me that night. I had been watching television in the lounge room when he stumbled in drunk.
He’d sat down next to me and had a full conversation. It felt like old times. But I hadn’t expected him to remember it.
“You’ll do all right, Holly. I know it,” Kobra said, and it was one of the nicest things he’d said to me in a long time.
I frowned, just as the oven chimed, telling Mum the pie was done. Mum’s apple pie was always amazing. I had no idea why Dad got up when she was more than capable of getting it herself. However, as soon as Mum and Dad both went inside, my eyes narrowed on Kobra.
“What do you want?” I got straight to the point, even though Creed’s hand was on my thigh under the table and having Kobra’s attention on me right now wasn’t the brightest idea I had.
“Nothing,” Kobra lied poorly while taking a sip of his beer.
I arched my eyebrows.
He groaned. “I fucked up and need you to cover for me.”
I smirked. “Well, well, if it isn’t the man that never does anything wrong.”
Creed was keeping his smirk contained, but I knew he would be getting amusement out of hearing the sergeant at arms had fucked up—which also made me wonder why Kobra would mention it in front of Creed.
“I left the fucking safe unlocked,”
“Which one?” I was sort of surprised to hear that. Kobra was a lot like Dad when it came to safes.
“The club one.” Kobra leant forward. “Dad’s gonna fucking lose it. You have an excuse to go there. I know you left your other lot of textbooks there last night.”
“Dad’s gonna lose it more if someone finds it unlocked before him!” I hissed at Kobra. “Go lock it!”
“Can’t.” He clenched his jaw. “Dad has banned me from the club till the next sit down. Tells me I’m irresponsible there.”
I gave him a pointed look. “Well, this doesn’t prove Dad’s point at all.”
“I don’t need judgement!”
“And I don’t want to be pulled into your fuck-ups!”
He scoffed.
