Her mocha eyes are an inferno of rage, but a challenge glimmers in them as she gives me a smug smile. “You wouldn’t dare. It would tarnish your perfect son act.”

My smile is threatening and wolfish. “Little girl, I’ve been playing this game for a long time. I’ve had twenty-five years to perfect my techniques. I’m not worried about getting caught.”

Lexi scowls before sliding into the chair I pull out for her. “Butyoushould be afraid. Your reputation is more than a little tarnished, unlike mine.” My smile and eyes are hard as I gaze at her for a few beats before sliding into my seat beside her.

Cynthia flashes Lexi a warning look. “Don’t embarrass me.” Her gaze flicks to me. “Follow Evan’s lead, Lexi.”

Gloating over the rim of the water glass, I tip it back, hoping it can douse the anger burning through my veins from Lexi’s stunt. My gaze moves to her fucking banging body in that dress.

Nope, not yet.

I take another swig, wondering if the waiter can bring me a hose to drink from. The flames inside me are burning me up.

After I’ve tossed back half the glass, I set it on the table. My hand grips Lex’s thigh, my palm burning the second I make contact with her bare skin. “Listen to your mother, little sis,” I taunt in her ear.

Lexi bristles, her cheeks scarlet from embarrassment and anger. She tries to push my hand away, but I tighten my grip, my fingers digging into her thigh.

After placing our order, my father started droning on about the company, boring me out of my skull. He’s under the mistaken impression I’ll be working for him, but I have other plans. I’m working on a master’s in Psychology for a reason. Not only will becoming a professor offer a more flexible schedule than the drudgery of working at Whitmore Industries, but it will also allow me to continue doing projects when Jaxson King and Zayne Morine, owners of King Morine, need my assistance.

King Morine is the leader in the technology and security field, and unbeknownst to Lexi, the cameras I installed in her bedroom are from them. Last weekend, I met up with Jaxson and Zayne and picked up the cameras. Luca Federico was with them, showing me the latest tracking devices they’ve been working on. My interest was piqued by the one that can be installed in a watch or necklace, but since I don’t require it now, I didn’t buy one. Now I’m wondering if I made a mistake. Lexi is proving to be a handful already.

My attention drifts back to the present when Henry and Owen Alexander are seated at the table across from us. Lexi’s head lifts, and her gaze moves to Owen, curiosity in her mocha eyes.

Oh, fuck no. Owen is an asshole, and there’s no fucking way I’m allowing this to continue.

Owen looks at Lexi as though she’s on the menu until he catches my watchful, narrowed eyes. Rage burns from me, causing Owen to squirm in his chair, his eyes dropping to the table.

Henry and my father converse while I stare daggers into the side of Owen’s face.

“Excuse me. I need to use the restroom.” Lexi takes advantage of my distraction, standing so quickly that my hand falls from her leg, striding away before I can speak. As she passes Owen, she gives him a flirty smile before throwing me a smug look over her shoulder, victory shining in her mocha eyes.

Meeting Cynthia’s concerned eyes, I flash her the smile that never fails to charm adults. Putting my hand on hers, I say, “I’ll keep an eye on her. I need to use the restroom anyway.”

“I can always count on you, Evan.”

Releasing her hand, I get to my feet. Stopping at Owen’s table, I put my hand on his shoulder, squeezing tightly. “Hey, Owen. Good to see you again.”

Owen winces, his blue eyes flashing to mine. He gives me a nod, indicating the fucker understands the message I’m sending. “Good to see you, Evan.” His voice is strained from my tight grip.

Satisfied he got the message, I stride away, hot on the heels of Lexi.

I spot her long chestnut locks as she talks to a waiter. He points her in the direction of the restroom, staring at her cleavage.I’ll deal with that sonofabitch later.

Once Lexi disappears down the hallway, I hurry after her. She pushes through the door, turning around to shut it when I plow through it, pushing her back. As it slams shut behind me, I lock it, my attention on her.

Lexi gasps before unleashing her fury. “What the hell do—”

That’s all she gets out before my hand is around her neck, backing her against the wall. “Did you think you could get away with taunting me, Lexi? Did you foolishly believe you wouldn’t suffer any repercussions even though I warned you that you’d be punished if you misbehaved?”

She doesn’t answer. Her body trembling like a leaf is the only response I need.

I switch hands, my left holding her by the throat while my right-hand slides down her body to the hem of her dress.

Kicking her legs open, my fingers dip beneath the silky material, moving to her pussy. The dampness in her panties makes me grin before I groan.

“You make me fucking crazy.” Sliding her panties to the side, I run my index finger over her clit. She presses her lips tightly together, but not before a strangled moan falls from her lips.

Giving her a cocky smile, I sink my finger deep inside her soaked pussy. She whimpers, her wide eyes locked on mine. I can see her pulse beating against her neck, giving me an idea. I begin fingering her to the beat of her rapid pulse, moaning when she floods my fingers with more wetness.
