arrest.”
One by one the club members started to
laugh until it filled the space. El shook his head and sauntered up
to the spitfire with pretty brown eyes. He stopped when the muzzle
of the weapon prevented him from moving farther and took a deep
whiff of her scent. Her breasts heaved, and her eyes darted back
and forth. He caught an undercurrent of fear. Just as quickly, she
shut the emotion down and tightened her grip on the gun. His cock
hardened by the minute. He’d never had any interest in human women
before, but this one … he wanted to bury himself in her
lushness.
El wrapped his fingers
around hers and forced her to ram the muzzle deeper into the center
of his chest. He met her defiant gaze and gently squeezed her hand.
“Go ahead suiker ,
pull the trigger.”
Chapter Two
The heat from El’s palm bled into the
back of her hand. Her heart beat sped up. She inhaled through her
nose, and then pushed her breath out through her mouth, in an
effort to slow down the organ. Nae angled her wrist up, and the
muzzle of the gun edged down the center of his bare torso. She
swallowed, as she looked him up and down.
Unlaced, tan leather work
boots with the tongues hanging out, covered his big feet. Faded
jeans, worn white at the knees and unbuttoned at the waist, hung
low on his lean hips. Shirtless, his muscles flexed with every
breath. The vest, with several colorful patches, hung off his broad
shoulders, and the word pride was tattooed across his chest. Dirty blond hair
with white streaks grazed the black leather.
Nae met his gaze and
pressed her lips together in a firm line. Amber eyes with dark
green flecks stared back at her with defiance . Taunting her by gently
squeezing his fingers, she held her hand still against his
urging.
He covered her thumb with his and
eased the safety off. “I will not be confined. There are only two
ways I would let you take me, and I would have to be dead for one
of them.” He had the faintest of accents
“ I can claim my bounty
either way.” A bead of sweat rolled down her temple.
El leaned in. “Shoot me I
dare you, suiker .”
“ Do you have a fucking
death wish?”
“ Tsk, tsk, foul language
from such luscious lips. Keep it up suiker, and I may be forced to
punish you.”
“ Discipline me, really?
You might want to rethink that babe. It would take an act of God
for you to get a
hand on me .”
El cocked a brow.
“ Challenge accepted.” The crowd closed in on them.
“ Damn, you’re obnoxious.
Tell your friends to back the fuck off, and then turn around and
walk toward the door.”
“ I think you’re confused
by my confidence.” He slid his hand down hers, stopping at her
wrist.
She raised the baton in her other
hand. “I will take you in, one way or another.”
“ Keep talking woman. Your
promises are giving me a hard on.”
Nae watched as he slid his
palm over the growing bulge of his crotch. In the background,
someone commented dryly, “ For the love of
goddess somebody shoot me .” She couldn’t
stop her lips from twitching. In one fluid move, he twisted her wrist and
forced her to release her weapon. El caught the pistol as it fell
from her hand. With deft skill, he slid the safety into place.
She yanked free of his grasp and spun out of his reach. Nae lashed the baton
across his midsection. The blow glanced of his
tricep as he bent at the waist and caught
her across the middle.
The force from his
shoulder knocked the air from her lungs and left her breathless. He
heaved her up, and she cracked the metal rod across his back. El
shuddered. A heavy hand fell across her butt cheek, stinging
the place where
his palm landed. Waves of electricity flowed through her from
the spot . Cream
flowed from her pussy.
His lips skimmed her side, and he
inhaled. “Goddess, I wonder do you taste as sweet as you
smell.”
“ Put me down, this is
kidnapping!”
“ Suiker , you walked into my world, and under our terms you’re
