We’re veering off track. I need to bring the conversation back to Wren.
The sweet little birdy who’s scared of the mean and nasty cat with fangs.
That would be me.
“If she’s actually having a birthday party, I want an invitation to it,” I tell them, my voice firm.
“We can’t work miracles,” Ezra says with a nonchalant shrug. But what does he care? He’s already been invited. “Maybe you should try a gentler approach with Wren. Be nice for once, instead of your glaring asshole self all the time.”
Seeing her makes me automatically scowl. How can I be nice when all I want to do is fuck her up?
Fuck her up as in, fuck her senseless. I see her, and I’m immediately filled with lust. Watching her suck a lollipop between her lips makes me hard. She’s sweet, gentle Wren for everyone else.
I see her differently. I want her…differently.
I don’t know how else to explain it.
“He’s glaring just thinking about her right now,” Malcolm points out. “He’s a lost cause. Give it up, mate. She’s not for you.”
What the hell does he know? I’m a Lancaster for God’s sake.
I can make anything happen.
Like fucking a virgin.
