Her, on top of me, a collar around my neck as she yanked.Who’s my good boy?

“Careful, dogs bite.” I was so fucking hard, and she knew it. It wasn’t an accident when she rolled against me.

“Then show me your teeth.”

“We have reached the penthouse. Please exit the elevator.”The electronic voice echoed around us, and for one more moment the energy between us thrummed, an inescapable force. Then she shoved me off, and I let go without hesitation.

She walked into the apartment, and I adjusted myself before following after her.

They’d cleaned the place up, not a speck of blood to be seen. Realtors didn’t even have to disclose anything in Neo Stellaris. A heart attack, that was the story.

“Damn, maybe I should have gone corporate.” Eon sighed, eyeing the place—with its two-story ceilings and all-black fixtures. For a second, it almost looked like she wanted to roll around on the real wool rug, but she resisted.

“Told you. Once you see the benefits, suddenly your soul doesn’t seem so valuable, does it?” She shot me a look but traced her hand along the marble counter as she walked through the kitchen, her eyes darting everywhere. “Don’t know what you think you’re going to find. You won’t find an electron out of place.”

She ignored me, wandering deeper into the space. She stepped into the office off the living area, the glass doors wide open. When you lived in a place like this, you wanted your guests to see every inch of it. She scanned the shelves in the back and frowned, then came back out.

“It’s all fake, huh? Staged?”

“Yeah, like I said—” She pushed past me and found the main comm panel for the security system near the front door. She pulled out one of those nerdy retro keyboards that only total techheads used and hardwired into the panel. I walked over and watched her breach the system in under ten seconds.Not bad.

She shrugged. “For such a fancy place, they have shit software.” I knew for a fact it had taken our guys four hours to break the encryption of the security feed here, but she’d already seen all that data. I told her so.

“Just checking to see if you missed anything.” She shot me a condescending grin that had me pissed—and my cock twitching again. I rubbed the back of my head and walked away before I got worked up. Again.

For a few minutes, the only sound in the apartment was theclackof her mechanical keys, until I heard her let out an annoyed groan. She yanked her hardwire and stomped over to me.

I gave her my own condescending grin. “Find anything?”

She crossed her arms and twisted her mouth. “No. Visual and audio was useless. Thermals showed the same spike we saw on the EM data, but we already knew that.” She bit her lip as she thought through everything, and I couldn’t stop watching those plump lips twist and blanch.Fuck me.

Everything about her was a fucking distraction. The tight crop top hugging her tits, the sliver of skin between that and her baggy pants, which did nothing to hide that tempting curve at the base of her spine—and everything below it. No wonder I couldn’t keep my hands off her.

“I told you. So unless we’re going to fuck against those windows, I don’t know what we’re doing here.”

She made a disgusted face and flipped me off. “Fuck you, Cy.” Like she hadn’t just pressed herself against me in the elevator, her breath hitching when my lips grazed her skin. Fine. She wanted to play like that—I would play.

“That’s the idea, doll.” My mind was already there—her back and ass pressed against the glass as I squeezed those creamy thighs and had her screaming my name again. Thrusting into that tight cunt while I looked out over the whole goddamn city.

Instead, she rolled her eyes at me.

“Get a grip. Preferably on yourself. Where was he murdered?”

I pointed to the bar by the windows, and she sauntered over, the view of her ass only making things worse. She stood up on her toes and peered into the cabinets, just slightly bent over the counter.Fuck me!She was doing this on purpose.

And I was done restraining myself.

I walked up behind her, caging her against the cold marble with my arms, burying my face in the hair at the base of her neck.

She growled as I pressed my cock against her ass. “I said fuck off, Cy!”

“Why? We’ve got this whole place to ourselves. Just finishing what you started.” I knew it would piss her off, and I reveled in the pain as she slammed her elbow into my ribs. I grinned and pressed in harder.

Then I felt her power rise, and she threw me back with it. I slid across the seamless floor, ready for her, as she spun, eyes glowing. I let my own Flux meet hers, so fucking ready for this fight, when her eyes went wide. But they weren’t looking at me.

Look at me.I let my EM field pulse, and her eyes snapped back to mine.That’s it, look at me. See me.

“Do that again,” she said, dropping her Flux. Her eyes darted away again. “Look.”
