“When a hot blonde walks in with three grand…”

“We’ve been careful, dude. Seriously.”

James stared into her eyes. “Do you remember our talk about the code my men live by?”

“These aren’tyourmen and I didn’tfuckthem.”

“No. You let them hit you, hurt you, and draw blood to work off anxiety and frustration. Fighting as therapy, Nina, is often as intimate as fucking.” Without breaking eye contact with her, James loudly asked the room, “Who am I to you, gentlemen?”

“You own the place.”

Another murmured, “Have for seventeen years.”

“Who trained you?” James asked.

“You did, Statton.”

“If I ran into trouble, would you come to my aid?”

“Absolutely.”

“Would you call yourself my men?”

“Yes, sir.”

“Prepare to spar.” James removed his suit jacket, shoulder holster, shirt, belt, shoes, and socks.

“James…”

“Nina, I’d never seriously injure these men but I’ll make them work to keep me from doing it. They train law enforcement in the area. Particularly SWAT and undercover cops. Perhaps this will explain why youshouldhave come to me and why Ihopeyou’ll come to me in the future for anything involving self-defense.” In a low voice, he added, “Especially if you’re using it as a replacement adrenaline rush for what you really need.”

Turning to look at the men, he added, “Don’t hold back simply because this gorgeous woman is watching. Nina doesn’t mind blood.”

Over the next hour, James systematically mowed down the men Nina had struggled to keep up with. He fought them one on one and in groups. Fast, strong, and maintaining a fixed expression on his face, he beat them all.

By the time the final man slapped his hand against the mat in surrender, she felt like she might come if he breathed on her.

Bending, James offered his last opponent a hand and pulled him to his feet. “Excellent work. All of you. Lock up and take off.”

They made their way to the back and James stood in the center of the mat, still and silent until he heard the slamming of the door at the back of the building.

“Nina.”

She took two steps, paused, and then ran at him. When she jumped into his arms, he caught her easily and whipped her to her back on the mat, his body on top of hers.

Panting, shaking apart, she helped him get her clothes off and worked at the closure of his slacks.

Then he was inside her and she latched her teeth onto the meat of his shoulder. He tasted of sweat, a little blood, and a warm musk she wanted to lick from his body.

She settled for running her lips up his neck to his mouth and moaned as he ate at her.

Pounding his cock into her, he growled, “In the wild, the strongest female always wants a powerful male. She’ll watch potential suitors rip each other to shreds without interfering and take the one who walks away.” He wrapped his hand around her throat. “My sleek jaguar. Did you know I owned this place?”

“Yes.”

“How?”

“I followed you here two weeks ago. I watched the place to see who came for training.”
