Page 21 of Suit

So the woman has some backbone. Good to know.

“Where the fuck is your ring?”

She already took it off? I’m still fucking wearing mine.

I see red. I don’t know why I’m so angry. This is what I wanted, isn’t it?

Bear was touching her, and she was smiling at him as if she liked it. Does she want him? Was she trying to take him to her bed?

Gently but firmly, I collar the front of her throat and use it to lift her face so I can look into those pale green eyes. I’ve never seen eyes so pretty.

“What are you playing at, Elena?” I ask her, bringing my lips to her ear. She smells so good it makes my mouth water. “You want to fuck a biker, is that it? Do you think any of the men here are going to touch you knowing that you belong to me?”

“On paper. I belong to you on paper only, Suit. You don’t get to pick and choose when I’m yours. You’ve made yourself pretty damn clear. I just wanted to have my first proper kiss. I’m twenty-three and have never been kissed. Do you know how sad that is?”

Has no one even kissed her before me? This is why I wanted her sister. I knew she was way too innocent for this life.

My throat works as I swallow. “I kissed you at our wedding.”

“That was a sweet, chaste kiss. I want a proper kiss from a man who wants nothing more than to fuck me⁠—”

I shut her up by slamming my lips down onto hers. She wants a kiss she won’t forget? I’ll be the one to give it to her.

I’ll be the one to give her everything. If she thinks she’s going to make me look stupid by messing around with other men behind my back, she has another thing coming.

She tastes so sweet, and as I taste her, I forget why this is a bad idea. I forget myself altogether. My cock hardens as my tongue dances with hers, as she follows my lead naturally.

She tastes like sin, not regret.

She moans, melting into me, and my hand slides down to rest on the curve of her ass. She’s perfect, and I don’t know how much longer I can pretend that I don’t want her.

My cock is so fucking hard right now, and I know she can feel it, but I force myself to pull away from her mouth. My lips trail up her jaw and stop at her ear. “You got what you wanted, princess? Now get out of here. You don’t belong in here.”

Her palms land on my chest as she pushes me away. Instead of the satisfaction I think I’ll see on her face, she looks up at me with anger burning from those pale green eyes. She lifts her hand to touch her now-swollen lips. “I wanted my first kiss from someone who wants me. Not someone who was forced to marry the nerdy virgin sister. You had no right, Suit.”

With that parting shot, she turns around and leaves the pole room.

I had no right? She is my wife. I had all the fucking right, unlike Bear. She wanted the kiss, and we both know it.

Angel comes up next to me. “You need to choose, brother. Do you want her or not? She’s a good girl. If you aren’t all in, then you need to leave her alone. She deserves to live her life too.”

“She’s my wife.”

“If she were really your wife, you would have fucked her on your wedding night,” he states, crossing his arms over his chest. “Why didn’t you? And don’t feed me that bullshit about her not being your type. All women are your fucking type.”

“She’s too innocent⁠—”

“Only because she’s been sheltered,” he fires back.

“You think a woman like that can give me what I need?”

“I don’t know, but she’s your wife. So I think she deserves the chance to find out. I know you better than anyone, Suit. And I think you’re scared, but Elena is not Jade.” He claps me on the back and walks past me.

Jade?

What does this have to do with her? Yes, she cheated on me, and yes, I never wanted to be in another relationship after her.

But that was years ago.
