His hair was damp, slicked back, as if he’d recently stepped out of the shower.
What’s this?
A tiny bandage curved high along his cheekbone.
When did he get injured? What the fuck?
Kenji let me drank him in and remained still leaning against the desk—but just barely. Every muscle in his body looked primed to launch. His knuckles flexed against the wood. His jaw twitched. His lusty eyes locked on mine, and for a second, I swore I saw the moment he almost said fuck it.
Almost lunged.
Almost pulled me in.
Almost bent me over the nearest skyscraper in that 3D Tokyo and tore this damn outfit in two.
I knew for a fact that if it weren’t for his men being around, I would have already been naked and getting deliciously fucked.
The air between us was a live wire.
He inhaled me.
Loudly.
His eyes fluttered half-closed, and he let out a low, guttural groan that made every inch of my body throb.
It was so loud that Lollipop guy snapped his head toward Kenji. His brows shot up in amused disbelief and then a wicked little snicker left him. It was so damned loud that the men near the back of the room stirred and began to come over.
Three of them approached first. One had platinum-blond hair tied back in a low knot. His gaze flicked between me and Kenji.
Beside him, another drifted forward, mohawk slicing through the air like a blade. He didn’t blink much. Just stared at me.
A third man had purple hair running down the center of his shaved head and tattoos climbing his throat like vines. He grinned at me—a little too wide, a little too knowing.
Two identical men stood not far behind them, arms folded, perfectly mirrored in posture and expression.
Twins? Yeah. Definitely twins.
They didn’t smile. They didn’t blink. Just watched with a kind of silent, spectral intensity that made me shiver.
So. . .are these more Fangs or am I finally seeing the Claws?
I guessed that they were Claws since none of them looked familiar.
Then came the others.
They weren’t walking.
They were closing in.
Suddenly, I spotted Kaoru with that long pink hair framing his heartbreakingly beautiful face. Tall and lean.
I smiled at him.
He gave me a quick wink.
Kenji didn’t notice, but Lollipop guy did and the line of his jaw twitched.
Okay. I should be careful and not be too polite to his men, just in case.
