He jogged to catch up as I walked toward the parking lot and slung an arm around my shoulder. "You know this doesn't change anything, right? We're just going to have a little fun."

I stopped as soon as we got to the top of the path and faced him. "Did you put fish in my dorm room?"

His eyes widened and his lips pulled at the corners, fighting a smile. "You think I would do something like that?"

"Yes." I saw Ivy and Aiden walking up the path and grabbed his hand. "You can make it up to me. Where's the car?"

He took keys from his pocket and led me to Jax's black Maserati SUV. "I'm the designated driver tonight."

He opened the back door and I slid in with him hot on my heels. My ass was barely over into the next seat when he placed his hands on my cheeks and his lips were on mine.

What the hell was I doing?

I wrapped my fingers around his wrists, but instead of pulling away, I moved my head to a better angle and let his tongue in my mouth. It was as if I couldn't stop it once their mouths were on mine.

His hands ran down my arms and then he grabbed my waist and laid me out on the seat, settling between my legs. My body arched up to his as he moved his hips against mine. I gasped when I felt his erection against me.

I couldn't control my body's reaction to him.

"Shit, vixen, you taste and feel better than I could have ever imagined." He ran his thumb over my bottom lip.

"Why are you doing this?" My eyes searched his for answers.

"Because I'm horny and you're fine as fuck." He ran a finger along the edge of my shirt before dipping a finger under to touch the soft skin of my breast. "Have you let anyone kiss you here?"

My eyes grew heavy and my body wanted to arch into his touch. I never realized how much I craved a man's touch and mouth until then. It was like they'd opened up a floodgate of hormones that had been locked away.

He kissed down my neck to the exposed skin of my chest. I speared my fingers through his short brown hair.

"Treating me like crap... why?" I couldn't even formulate questions correctly. His lips stopped and he pulled back.

"You didn't meet your deadline." He sat back on his heels and rubbed his hands up and down my thighs. "Are you even trying to contact him?"

I nodded and my eyes landed on the evident bulge in his pants. "Why is it so important for me to contact my father? Do your parents work for him or have investments in his business?"

His hands stilled and he lowered himself back on top of me, gripping my chin between his thumb and forefinger. "My parents are dead."

"I'm sorry, I didn't-"

The door was wrenched open and Morgan yelped as he flew off me and hit the car next to us. Jax's pissed off glare greeted me.

"Stay here." He slammed the door and turned and punched a laughing Morgan in the face.

Aiden and Ivy opened the door on the side the two assholes weren't fighting on.

"Hurry!" Ivy grabbed my hand and I pulled away from her. "Hurry before he's done beating the shit out of Morgan!"

"Wait." I got to my knees on the seat and looked into the trunk area. "This is my one chance."

Morgan and Jax were still fighting, and with the tinted windows, they couldn't see me. I climbed over the backseat.

"Your one chance for what? Riley! What the fuck are you doing?" Ivy screamed in a whisper. "They aren't going to fight for that long!"

"Leave the door open and then run to Aiden's car and peel out of here like I'm with you." She shook her head and looked at me like I was crazy. "Please! This is my one chance to find out why they hate my dad so much."

"You were just supposed to turn them against each other! Mission accomplished." She gestured to the other side of the SUV.

"They might know where my mom is." I gripped the headrest. "I have to try."
