“Shoot!”
“Question of the day, number two... What’s your biggest fear?” His words come out gently.
“Fuck that, I’m fearless. You know this.” I raise my chin in defiance to prove my point, but his scowl calls my bluff. “Okay, heights. Definitely heights.”
Jett shakes his head as he makes atsksound. “Deeper.”
“Ugh.You’re so ungrateful!”
His smile grows, and my heart melts a little.
Screw off, heart. You are not needed here.
“Fine. I’m scared of letting people in,” I finally admit, almost timidly, looking away, unable to meet his eyes.There it is.I’ve said it.?
“Why, Iz?”
“Nope, that’s all for today, Beast. I’m all questioned out. Now, I need food.” I stand and dust the sand off me. He follows my lead and stands beside me, attempting to stare into my eyes, but I won’t allow it. I won’t allow myself tofeelwhat they do to me. “Are you going to feed me, or what? This girl needs a big ass burger.”
He snorts. “You eat like a damn man.”?
“Fuck yeah, I do.”
Chapter two
Jett
July 2016
“I can’t believe I agreed to this,” I whisper-shout under my breath. “Aren’t we fucking adults at this point?”
“You’re twenty; I’m eighteen. We are hardly adults. Now, quit bitching and pick,” Izzy demands.
I raise an eyebrow at her, and she raises one back at me in challenge.
“Don’t be scared, Beast. I promise to go easy on you.”
“I do like it when you make things easy for me.” I throw a wink her way. “And are you ever going to drop the ‘Beast’ shit?”
“First, I will always make you work forit.” She giggles. “And secondly, never. Beast is here to stay. Blame yourself.”
Silence falls momentarily, and I let out a sigh of defeat.
“Dare,” I mutter under my breath.
“YES!” she shouts with a little too much joy. Instantly, I know I’ve just fucked up. “I knew you were a rebel!”
What the fuck did I get myself into agreeing to play a child’s game with this woman. I can see the wheels rolling in her mind.She’s formulating a plan, and knowing her, this will not be in my favor.
“I dare you to drop your shorts,” she commands with a wicked grin plastered across her face. Then she spins and heads toward her bag.
I chuckle darkly, liking where this is heading. “We didn’t have to play a game for you to get me naked. All you had to do was ask nicely.” Izzy whips around to face me, holding something behind her back. She pads over to stand in front of me, pulling my board shorts down, and my aching and ready cock springs to attention.
She looks down and shakes her head with a giggle. “Always so eager. Oh, no, big boy. You didn’t let me finish”
My face to drops at that laugh.
Oh shit.
