“Now, where’s the fun in that?” One of his hands falls from the wheel and latches onto mine, both clutched together. “You’ve always been mine, Astor. It doesn’t matter who you’ve decided to bring along. That’s never going to change.”
I unravel and lace my fingers with his, squeezing his limbs tightly to show him…everything. “Do you mean that? What we did the day I found out you were alive…”
“Why are you hesitating?” His thumb gently glides up and down my skin in silent comfort. “And why are you even asking?”
“Because we fucked and said nothing about it.”
“I didn’t know you fucked and then spoke about it. But if you want?—”
“Stop it,” I lightly chide. “Youknowwhat I mean. I come with baggage. I come with several?—”
“Boys.”
“Levi…this isn’t normal.”
“Are you saying you wanted me to change course and date Nessa?”
My nails mindlessly dig into his flesh. “No.”
“Then leave me alone with my decisions. I chose you. Even when Nessa showed up naked in my bed and wanted me to fuck her silly, I still chose you. I willalwayschoose you.”
Showed up naked in his bed?
Yeah, bitch?
I’m highly regretting my decision not to make her deathhurtmore.
“You can stop stabbing me with your fingers now,” Levi chimes, instantly having me ease up on my death grip of a body I can’t touch anymore to inflict pain. “I don’t know if I should be pissed still or turned on. I’ve never had a woman kill for me before.”
“Told you it would’ve saved you trouble.”
“I like your brand.” He points ahead. “Right there. That’s one of the cars.”
My eyes slice to the direction of his finger, and it’s textbook bad guy.
Blacked-out SUV.
Nothing special about it.
“How are we gonna do this?” I inquire, adjusting my ass in the seat to get ready for whatever he has in mind.
“We’ll try to spin them first. However, that means a whole lot of gunfire in our direction, and I only have my Glock and an extra clip. Check the glove box.” I do as instructed and only find random pieces of paper, no extra guns or weapons of any kind. “I’d tell them to come more strapped, but until I handle Muncy, I don’t want them getting locked up on some extra bullshit.”
“So the guns they’re already carrying aren’t enough?” I tease with a roll of my eyes.
Levi smirks and gently pulls my hand to his lips, darting his tongue out to lick at my flesh before pressing a searing kiss there.
I wish he wouldn’t do that.
Not when we’re here, about to do some crazy-ass shit, because I would love nothing more than for him to pull over so I can straddle his lap.
“What if we can’t spin them?” I ask, attempting to keep on topic and from my body betraying me fully. “We need to get them out.”
“Yeah, but which one is in there?”
I glance back at the SUV as it makes a right turn, and Levi follows at a safe distance. They’re going to catch on that we’re following them any second and bolt. We don’t have a lot of time.
And I can’tnotget to whomever is in that car.
