Oh, she bites.
Hard.
I fucking love this woman.
“Jealousy looks good on you.” I move my hand from my cock but don’t let her go.
“I look good on you, but we don’t all get what we want.”
I can’t help the smile that leaves my lips at her words. “You do look good on me. Hurt dick and all, I still want you to touch it.”
Her eyes fall to my pants, and she sucks in a breath. “I didn’t come here for this.”
“What did you come for?” I ask, pressing against her. “To yell at me?”
She opens her mouth to speak, but my lips slam onto hers before she can say another word. I kiss the fuck out of her, and to my surprise, she doesn’t push me away. Instead, her hands wrap around my neck, and she kisses me back.
Oh, how I have missed her kisses.
Gripping her hips, my hands slide up her body, but she pulls back.
“Shit, sorry.” Dammit! I forgot about her back.
“It’s fine,” she says. “I need to go. And this…” she waves a finger between us, “… cannot keep happening.”
“But it can.”
“Can’t,” she insists, her tone firm, but her eyes don’t agree. “I’ll take Magina with me.”
“No, you won’t.”
“Yes, I will.”
“No, I mean, you can’t.” Her eyes go wide. “This isn’t your world. She knows too much. Keir wanted her dead, but I needed to see what information she had.”
“She’s innocent.”
“That means nothing. She knows things, and it’s only a matter of time before she speaks.” We hear a rustling on the other side of the door, and I step past Adora to open it. Lucas stands there, holding Magina by her hair as she kneels on the floor.
“Seems someone likes to eavesdrop.”
“I wasn’t, Joey, I swear.”
“Just because you think he’s the nice one, it doesn’t mean you are any good at lying.” Lucas pulls her hair again, and she winces.
“Lucas, stop,” Adora says.
A phone dings, and we all look at each other. It’s then I realize it’s coming from the room we were just in. I step back into the room, find the phone stuffed under the mattress, and open it. The message reads…
Reportback about how they run everything ASAP.
I step back outand look at Magina.
She sees the phone in my hand, and her eyes go wide.
“It isn’t—” I don’t even wait for her to finish before I raise my gun and shoot her straight between the eyes.
“Fuck, give some notice next time. I would have let her go and backed up a bit,” Lucas gripes, stepping back. “I got my good suit on, and now it’s covered in blood and gore.”
