After I gave myself a moment to clear my head, I stepped back outside into the hallway, and Kaleb was leaning against the wall waiting. He tilted his head as he raised an eyebrow atme. “You know, you were supposed to come save me back there. Instead, you just let me suffer. She had her hands all over me.”
I swallowed, seeing the teasing in his eyes. I stared at his lips and felt my heart skip a beat. “My bad.”
He moved closer. “My bad? That’s all I get? I saved you when Ryan was hitting on you. Don’t I deserve the same?”
I shrugged. “What, half-naked women aren’t your thing?”
Kaleb was practically hovering over me. I could smell his cologne and swallowed. His eyes looked at me softly as he chuckled. “Not like that.”
I glanced down at his lips and suddenly felt myself wanting them. Before I even knew it, Kaleb pulled a hand up, cupping the back of my head, and kissed me. It was like a kiss in the movies where you thought you were never going to have the chance again, so you took it.
He kissed me like his life depended on it, and I found myself wanting all of it. We tumbled back against the wall, and I knew people could see us. We were just a foot away from leaving the hallway, but I didn’t care.
He pinned me against the wall, his fingers tight against my skin as he tilted my head up, deepening the kiss. His tongue slid against mine, and I felt my breath being taken away.
Chapter 8 - Kaleb
Nora tasted like cherry and a hint of salt. Her lips were softer than I thought was even possible. I knew it was wrong, but the way she was looking at me made me unable to help myself. I watched her watch me get hit on for half an hour, and she did nothing. She just let it happen. I thought maybe she would have come and yelled at me, maybe asked why I wasn’t telling this woman to leave me alone when we’re supposed to be dating, but she didn’t.
I knew this was fake, but I didn’t care. I wanted her to know that I was hers. During this time, no other woman got me, and no other woman even came close. Was it wrong of me to want her to be protective? Was it wrong to want her to care?
I felt her hands shake as she pushed against my chest. “I need…air. It’s too hot in here.”
I leaned back and stared into her eyes, taking in her flushed face as she avoided looking at me. I could see the lust and embarrassment swirling in them, not seeming sure which to let win. I wasn’t having it. I grabbed her hand and pulled her back down the hallway toward the exit. I pushed the door open and stepped outside, feeling the cold wind hit me.
Outside, I scanned the space, seeing it was empty. It was a small alleyway with little space but semi-private. No one would bother us out here, and that was what I needed.
I pulled her closer to me and hooked her chin. “There is your air. Is this better?”
She looked around the alleyway for a moment before she looked back at me. Her eyes scanned me before her throat bobbed slightly. I watched her bite onto her lower lip, her teethraking over the skin. A shiver ran down my spine. She looked so sexy.
I pushed her against the wall once more, stepping into her space. Her nose brushed against mine, and I inhaled her scent. I could smell the alcohol on her, knowing she had had a drink while she and Jade talked.
“We need to discuss the rules.”
She nodded. “We do.”
There was a lot we needed to talk about if we wanted this to work. But as I stared into her eyes, I knew I couldn’t be serious. She was clearly buzzed, and I had a beer. Neither of us was in any condition to talk rules.
I kissed her softly, just grazing my lips along hers, and found she was kissing me back with just as much want. I knew she wanted this just like I had. She could look at me with anger, tell me she was over me, but I didn’t believe it. Was it wrong to do this, knowing she probably still had feelings? Yes, but I couldn’t help myself.
I grabbed her legs, hoisting her up, and pressed against her, flattening her to the wall. She moaned, and it stirred something deep in me. I wanted so badly to have her. I wanted to sink myself into her and just forget about everything else.
I didn’t want to think about the pack or my father. I didn’t want to think about the danger or how messy this all was going to get. I just wanted her. Just a moment where nothing else mattered.
Her hands wrapped around my neck, her legs shaking against my hips. She moaned softly as I took what I wanted. I could feel myself getting hard, having her pressed against mycock like this. She was practically grinding against me with each kiss.
“Oh god,” she moaned slowly as I cupped her ass, feeling her legs tighten against my hips.
“Kaleb, we…we…We should talk.”
“We can talk after,” I offered, as I ran my teeth against her neck. “I don’t feel like talking now. Do you feel like talking now?”
She shook her head, her legs pulled me closer to her. My cock pressed against her, and I knew she could tell I was hard. Her eyes seemed to sparkle for a moment. Her fingers pulled at my hair, and I groaned.
I cupped the back of her head, wrapping my fingers around her hair, and pulled back gently. She looked up at me with pleading eyes, and it looked good on her. I’d watched her hold such a natural expression or look at me with anger. I’d missed her offering something else, something raw.
“God, you look stunning like this.”
