Am I that fucked-up that I find this sexy as fuck?Yes. The answer is yes.
But there is a small part in my brain that knows this is all kinds of wrong, and that this man in front of me is not right.
I should run.
Fuck it! That’s what I intend to do as I reach for the bedsheet, gripping and pulling it from the mattress, then tying it around myself.
“Trouble?” he asks in a manic voice as he steps around the bed to me. I jump onto the bed, holding the sheet tight reaching for what clothes I can, as well as my bag, then bolt for the door.
As soon as I pull it open, I run, sheet and clothes in hand, not worrying about anything but getting away.
That’s the smart thing to do, but no one said I was a smart woman. I never claimed to be, but right now, I know I have to run.
The doorman of the hotel looks at me, shocked. So I pull the sheet tighter around me and get into the taxi that’s waiting out front, thankfully.
I rattle off my address and don’t dare look back.
ELEVEN

“Let me guess. She ran.”Kyson laughs as I sit across from him at the round mahogany table. He has a glass in front of him that he isn’t touching. His leg starts bouncing while he smirks at me. If he wasn’t my brother, I would hit him. Fucking hard.
Kenzo says nothing as he sits next to Kyson, just observing like he does best. If I wasn’t in a mood, I might find it amusing that we’re all sitting on ornate white chairs trimmed with gold that look like they came out of a fucking Victorian movie. They must be the real deal because the dainty as fuck legs isn’t buckling under our weight. Who booked this place anyway.
“She ran,” I confirm.
“You didn’t try drowning her, did you?” He raises a brow at his question.
“Nope.”
“So what did you do? They all want a piece of you till they find out how crazy you are.”
I grin, thinking about how hard she came, the way her back arched and her eyes squeezed shut. It’s been a few weeks since that night, but Kyson hasn’t asked about it until now.
“None of your goddamn business.”
“Aw, come on, you always tell.”
“Not about this one.”
“She did seem a little crazy. Maybe that’s what you need… Someone crazy like you.”
I don’t respond.
There is no need for any more words.
I don’t always share what’s happening in my life with my brothers. They may be ruthless and the most loyal of fuckers to ever have existed, but some things I keep to myself.
Like Sage…
Standing and walking away, I take my phone with me. Kyson yells out as I leave, but I pay him no attention as I close the door behind me and go straight for the bed. We’re in a different hotel tonight with a new job at hand.
We don’t take a lot of jobs anymore, but when we do, we get paid a substantial amount. And when I say substantial, I mean in the millions.
We’re worth it.
We will hunt down your prey when no one else can.
