grab her and rock her world in a way she had never known. But then she’d win. Her body would win. Fuck that. He was done with the games. It was time to tell the guys.
“I think I’m gonna go back to the crew.” He stood up and adjusted himself hoping that his erection wasn’t showing. It was bad enough for him to feel it.
“You’re gonna tell them?” Allison looked terrified. If she’d had a plan, it didn’t work. Whatever it was. And she knew she had fucked up.
“It’ll take me a good half hour to get there and another fifteen or so minutes to tell ‘em everything. If you mean no harm, disappear.” He wasn’t cruel. He was giving her a chance to run.
“And spend my life looking over my shoulder? Because of you? I’m trying to help. Make some money, yes, but help. And you would toss me to the wolves because I won’t let you fuck me? Men are all the same.”
“You know the options.” Jake ignored her insult and turned and walked out of the room. He was angry. Frustrated. Disappointed.

It only took a few minutes for Allison to throw her things into a bag and take off. She wasn’t sure what she was going to do, but staying here wasn’t an option. She had to lay low. She couldn’t leave town. But she obviously couldn’t count on the mysterious and so-called good guy Jake Brighton to help her. She was on her own. Which wasn’t unusual. The problem was that she was on her own with an ache in her groin that couldn’t be satisfied.

“Why’d ya wait so long to tell us, Jake?” Logan was angry. His eyes showed rage. They also showed suspicion.
Jake had just told him that he’d found the girl. He didn’t call her by name. They’d never told him her name. He told them where she was and everything. Why was Logan yelling?
“I was trying to find out some things.” Jake wasn’t going to cower to his friend, his brother, about some bitch who’d tried to swindle him.
“Let’s go.” Logan ordered and the crew stood up. “Jake, you just wait here.”
That part surprised him. Why wouldn’t he be included?
“What? I did the work. I want to be a part of this.” He stood his ground.
“This isn’t your issue. It’s ours. From before you were with us. Besides.” Logan smirked. “I’d say you had enough chance to finish on your own. Now it’s our turn. Wait here.” The guys left.
Jake, angry and still frustrated, ordered a beer that he’d never drink. Because before he would down it, he’d realize that maybe she was telling the truth. Maybe they didn’t want him there in case she spoke. Maybe they didn’t trust him the way they should after all these years. And he decided he was going to be there, with or without the permission of Logan Dixon.

She wasn’t this careless. She wasn’t this confused. Ever. She wasn’t accustomed to being off her game. In her line of work she had to stay on top. And here she was, crouched in an alley in the dark, with no clue where to go or what to do. The girl that was never scared was terrified.
Even more so when she felt an arm around her waist, pinning her arms down, and a hand across her mouth. She tried to yell out, but it wasn’t happening. The person behind her lifted her up and carried her off. This was it. She was about to die.
***
To be so beautiful, she was a pain in the ass. Squirming and kicking him as he walked. He wouldn’t admit it turned him on. Instead, he was getting angry. Good Lord, couldn’t she let him save her? If she was heard, they’d find both of them. And at this point, if the Dixon Crew walked up, Jake was just as dead as the woman he was carrying off.
CHAPTER FIVE
“What the fuck are you doing?” she screamed when he released her onto the bed. Where had he brought her? The whole time she was being carried she was positive she was being taken to her own demise. She still wasn’t sure. But as she looked
