Panting, she glanced up at me and murmured, “Holy fucking shit.”
“You’re fucking telling me.”
Chapter 10
Raven
With the taste of Jett’s cum lingering on my tongue, I got dressed and started to make my way out of his office to finish my shift.
His hand grabbed my forearm. “Where do you think you’re going?” he rumbled.
“Back to work?” I spun on my heels to be met with a soft stare.
Pulling me into him, he brushed my hair behind my ear. “I wasn’t lying, darlin’. You just became mine.”
“I still have to work,” I badgered, running my fingers through his long beard.
He shook his head, pulling me onto his lap as he took a seat. “You really don’t.”
“Do I have a unicorn-dust-laced vagina or something? After one fuck, you’re ready to make me your old lady?” I searched his eyes, but he was playing his cards close to the vest.
“I would have made you my old lady the instant you walked into this bar asking for a job.” His words landed in my gut like a brick.
“I don’t get it,” I admitted, shifting away from him a little.
“You will.” He exhaled before kissing my cheek. “Darlin’, you’ll see it more and more every damn day.”
“What now? Are you expecting me and Emma to move into your house and me to just be a kept woman?” I lifted my eyebrow at him, hoping he would realize how stupid that sounded.
“Why the fuck not?”
I jumped out of his lap. “Because that is insane. We barely know each other.”
He stood, his menacing presence forcing me back against the wall. “I warned you—you’re mine.”
“I like the sound of being with you, but for fuck’s sake, I am not going to rush into something when my kid is involved.” I puffed out my chest, trying to challenge his overwhelming stature.
He threw his hands in the air. “I can be patient. I think I have proven at least that to you over the last few months.”
I let out a sigh, relaxing a bit. “Thank you. I just need to be wooed a little bit more.”
“Then get ready for the most incredible wooing of your damn life, darlin’.” With a little wink, he slapped me on the ass quickly. “Go on, get back to work. We can discuss this more once we close up. Emma is at her dad’s tonight, yeah?”
I nodded. “At least do me the honor of coming to my house after work tonight.”
“Fine.” I rose on my tiptoes to kiss him before exiting the office.
What just happened?

“Ready, sis?”Wyatt started to put his jacket on as I finished counting out my drawer.
“I’m going to hang out with Jett for a little while before I head home. See you later.” I offered up the explanation, praying my nosy brother would just take it at face value.
“Jett!” he yelled, stomping toward the back of the bar.
“Wyatt, no!” I chased after him.
