I grab the back of her ponytail and pull it tight as she whimpers and then I crush my mouth on hers.
Hard.
Punishing.
This is wrong on so many levels, yet my tongue takes hers, and I tighten my hold on her hair. Primal lust pumps through my veins. Her body shudders and submits, giving me exactly what I need. My tongue takes and takes, and I swallow her candy taste and smell her fucking scent…
“Everything all right out here?” A loud voice makes me break away, both of us panting as I try not to attack some man who’s only trying to help.
“We’re fine.” I hold up a hand, stopping him from coming closer. Trying to catch my breath, I force my brain to work.
“You okay, young lady?” The man’s voice makes me turn to look at him. He’s older, maybe sixty, wearing a white apron, his concerned eyes focused on Alex, then me.
“Yes.” She nods, her hands still holding on to my forearms.
The man squints at me, then motions with his head. “You need to move that scooter. It’s gonna get run over. And take that business”—he gestures at us—“somewhere private.” He shakes his head and turns, walking back toward the fish market.
“Fuck.” I remove her hands, and they fall limply to her sides. Her lips are swollen and red from my aggressive kiss. I need to back away. If I don’t, I’m going to fuck her against this brick wall.
“Alex, this can’t happen.” I state, moving toward the scooter and backpack laying in the middle of the entrance where Alex dumped them.
“I’ll call you a cab. I can’t take you home on my bike—”
“No.” Her voice sounds loud and high-pitched. “I can call an Uber. I want to.” She shakes her head, reaching for her backpack. As she sits down on a concrete slab, her back to the ocean and PCH, she types on her phone.
“Goddammit.” I hesitate, and Ineverhesitate. I always know what I want and what I’m doing.
Get your head on right, Brett.Grabbing the scooter, I walk it over to the end of the parking lot, popping the kickstand out as I watch it shut off. I turn back to Alex, who still sits on the concrete. I want to pull her on my lap, kiss her, pet her…Goddammit.This will end badly. Nothing good can come from it.
“Look at me.” My voice sounds harsh to my own ears.
When she jerks her head up, her big emerald eyes lock with mine. I almost adjust myself because what I see in hers… is everything a man like me should never be teased with.
We’re kindred souls with the same needs.
I don’t trust myself.
I’m fighting not to break every rule and take her back to my place. Blow off the fundraiser and fuck until this insane attraction is sated.
“Drop the class, Alexandrea.” I force myself to break eye contact and walk toward my bike.
I hear her snort, and she calls out to me, “Thanks for everything. Don’t worry about me. I’m fine…” Her sassy mouth makes me turn because I just saved her. Eyes narrowing, I watch her as she looks over at the silver car pulling into the parking lot.
“Look, I’m sorry. My Uber is here,” she snaps, biting her bottom lip as she waves at the idiot in the Toyota Camry smiling away. Irrational jealousy spikes through me, and all I can hear is my teeth grinding.
Walk away, Brett. This one is bad news.Instead, I grab the door before she can shut it and lean down, glaring at the Uber driver who looks at me through the rearview mirror.
“Drop the class, Alexandrea.” I straighten.
She reaches over and violently slams the door on me. I back up and watch her mouth something to the driver as my fist opens and closes.
I’ve always been competitive, but never a jealous man. So this feeling that I’d like to beat the shit out of the driver’s smiling face solely because he’s pulling away with her is unacceptable.
Unacceptable.
“Fuck this.” I walk to my bike and start it up, not caring that I’m playing Russian roulette with oncoming traffic. My mind purposely ignores her scent, which clings to my jacket, and the pineapple taste of her mouth as I zigzag back into my lane and head toward my house.
I’ll change into a suit and get completely smashed so that everything that happened today will be gone tomorrow.
