Dom studied Garrett’s body, watching as it slumped over and fell on the floor. “You know that should’ve been my kill.”
“Says who?” I challenged. “He grabbed me first. He probably hired me first too.”
Dom scoffed. “He was going to hand me off to The Vultures MC. I deserved that kill.”
Flashing him a wicked grin, I said, “Cry about it.”
“Sounds like you need a little attitude adjustment.” Backing me up against the wall, Dom pinned me with his body against mine.
“Absolutely I do. Maybe that phenomenal fucking cock of yours would help.” A rush ran through me when he grabbed me by the throat. God yes, I wanted him so bad.
Dom brushed his lips against mine. “I’ll see what I can do about that.”
His mouth was on mine then, staking his claim. His tongue plunging between my lips in search of mine. His warm breath on my face as he devoured me. I couldn’t get enough of him. Every kiss was a tease. I wanted so much more.
Too bad we had to clean this fucking mess up first.
CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR
DOM
What kind of a maniac sits in a hot tub outside in the bitter chill of winter? Noah Cunningham, apparently.
With the cold night air biting at my skin, I eased myself into the hot water. “Jesus Christ, this is crazy. Why do you enjoy this?”
He watched me with an amused grin, splashing hot water at me. “Are you kidding? It feels fucking amazing. Give it a few minutes. You’ll like it.”
“I’m not sure why I let you talk me into this. It’s too cold to be outside naked.” We left our clothing inside, coming out wrapped in only towels. I tossed my towel onto the raised platform next to the hot tub, submerging myself under the water to escape the chill in the air.
Noah sank down until the water was up to his neck. Letting his head fall back against the padded side, he let out a dramatic sigh. “Goddamn that feels good. Exactly what I needed after a hell of a week.”
We sat across from one another, our legs entangling beneath the water. After returning from Elmwood, Noah asked me to come to his house. Needing to be alone with him, I’daccepted. Damon had gone straight to his bedroom. Now that it was just the two of us, I wasn’t sure where to start.
What did I want to say? Did I even have the words?
Noah picked up a frosty bottle of beer from the ledge, taking a drink. “Do you think Project X will continue without Garrett?”
The sensation of going from freezing cold to engulfed in heat was starting to feel kind of nice. I waved my arms back and forth beneath the water, savoring the warmth. “I’m not sure if they have it in them. We should probably keep an eye on them for a while.”
“I wasn’t sure if you would come when they demanded you as a trade for me.” Noah’s smile faded. “I thought you would assume I was in on it with them and leave me hanging. I’m really glad you came.”
Taking the risk of reaching out into the cold air, I snatched my drink from the ledge and drank back a large amount. “Part of me thought you might have been screwing me over. It felt like something you might do. I guess I didn’t want to believe it. I couldn’t let myself. Thanks for not selling me out.”
A hint of a smirk tugged at Noah’s lips. “I thought about it. Then I thought about your sweet cock and the way you make this husky little groan when you come. I decided I didn’t want to give that up.”
Neither of us seemed to know how to handle the seriousness of what was taking place between us. I was glad that he felt it too.
“Is that all I am to you?” Tilting my head to one side, I hit him with an intense stare. Needing to see the truth in his eyes. “I find it hard to believe you would make decisions based on a nice cock.”
Noah pursed his lips, making a little pffft sound. Not quite a scoff. “Hey, you’d be surprised what a cock like yours will makea guy do.” When I continued to stare at him, he added, “You really want to go there?”
“Why not? We’ve come this far already.” Running my foot up the inside of his leg, I grazed the inside of his thigh with my toes.
He stiffened slightly. Finishing off his beer, he placed the bottle back on the ledge. Grabbing onto my leg, Noah used it to drag himself across the hot tub toward me.
“What is it you want me to say, Dom? That I’m yours? That I need you to be mine? You already know that, don’t you?” Climbing onto my lap, Noah plucked the drink from my hand, placing it on the ledge.
My already hard cock pressed against him. Like the devious little shit that he was, Noah moved against me, grinding on my erection. My hands went to his waist, gliding up his body until I’d wrapped them both around his throat.
