Unleashed (A Bad Boy Stepbrother Romance) (128 page)

“I’m fine.”

“Oh? Didn’t the doctor tell you to stay off your foot?”

“Fuck the doctors.”

“What about your fractured rib? All the bruises on your body? The black one on your thigh?”

“It’s not like you were worried about that last night.” He licks his lips. “While you were screaming my name… scratching my back.”

The image of his hot, sweaty body pressed up against mine, his hips thrusting into me, flashes through my mind. I scowl at him.

“You’re losing me, Pierce. I’m telling you, I’ve had it up to here. I’m ready to walk away.”

“No you’re not,” he says, and he gets up off the chair. It creaks and cracks again. He’s comes to me, closes the distance fast in just two hard strides.

I put my hands out, but he moves them aside, turns me around, and wraps me up from behind. He buries his nose into my neck and inhales.

“God, you smell sexy.”

I feel a pang of self-consciousness. The last time I showered was yesterday morning, and we got very sweaty the night before. If only I hadn’t overslept!

“Pierce…”

“Pen,” he says, and I don’t fail to notice his right hand sidling ever lower over my belly.

“
Pierce
,” I hiss. “Not here, not now!”

He takes my earlobe into his mouth, gives it a nibble. Goosebumps explode all over my body, and still his hand is creeping ever lower.

“Why not?” he asks. “There’s construction on the road. Traffic is bad. Tina won’t be back for a while.”

“Tina
walks
,” I say, my voice barely a whisper. “And she’ll fire me if she catches us. This is unhygienic.”

“Well, you
can
be pretty dirty.” Before I can reply, he lowers his voice, and says: “I need to taste you.”

“Pierce.”

“Right now. I’m going to make you come.”
