Page 133 of Something So Strong

He scoffs at me—hazel eyes leering down his nose. He wants me mad, and I want to give it to him, but this is not the occasion.

Next time, maybe. Or in a few weeks when I’m more used to things.

But not tonight.

“I’m not gonna stand for that behavior.”

“What are you gonna do about it?”

“I’m not doing anything. But you’re going to change your attitude.”

“Don’t wanna.”

“Kai.” The deepness of my voice affects us both and—

Don’t do it.

He lowers his chin.

You prick.

The slightest smile curls. It’s only millimeters, but I know what he’s doing.

I swear to god if I see your—

The tip of his tongue pokes at the corner of his lips.

Fuck you!

With a forceful shove, I push his head back against the door, but release him a second later. “When you’re the one getting fucked, you can decide how it happens.”

The expression on Kai’s face doesn’t change, but his proximity to me does. “But I will be getting fucked, Baby. You’ll pull me in, push back on me, and beg me to go deeper.”

I gulp and fight the compulsion to force him to his knees here and now. “I thought I was your Daddy?”

“We’re not in the sheets yet.”

My fingernails dig into my palms and I step back. His path clear, I gesture for him to move. “Get the fuck upstairs, Kai.”

Hands straight into his pockets, he saunters past me.

Kai’s halfway up before I follow.

He’s too much for my hungry eyes.

His ass and thighs were already too much to bear in the light gray slacks he’s wearing, but putting his hands in his pockets…

Fuck him to the moon.

Arriving at my room first, Kai spins around and slumps his shoulder against the wall. “Enjoy the view?”

“I can still say no.” Key in the lock, I glance at him sideways.

Pushing back off the wall, Kai moves behind me. The heat of his body makes my chest feel cold for the first time.

My eyes close when his strong, inked fingers grip my hips.

I lose the ability to stand up straight when he forces himself against me.
