Everything about her was sexy.
“Greer…” I cupped her jaw.
Then we both moved. I lowered my head as she went up on her toes. Her lips pressed to mine.
With a groan, I pulled her against me. She shimmied closer and I plunged my tongue into her sweet mouth.
Her tongue touched mine, stroked. She tasted like every fantasy I’d ever had. She moaned into my mouth, her hands twisting in my shirt. Then she leaped up, her legs wrapping around my waist. I slid my hands under her ass, turned, and pinned her to the concrete wall.
Then I stopped holding back.
I devoured her. I kissed her with all the pent-up desire I’d had simmering for years. I kissed her until her lips were pliant and puffy under mine. I moved my mouth down the side of her neck. She undulated against me, rubbing that sweet pussy against me. I was as hard as steel.
“Jameson…God…”
Greer. This was Greer. We’d grown up together.
I shouldn’t be doing this.
I let her go and staggered back.
She pressed a hand to the wall, and another to her swollen lips. She frowned at me.
I’d been rough. She was too good and smart for me. She was family.
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done that.” I scraped a hand over my head. “I’m sorry.”
“Jameson—”
I spun and hurried away, my boots echoing on the concrete floor.
I needed to find some damn control. I needed to focus on hunting this monster.
I had a job to do, and it didn’t involve kissing Greer Baird.
CHAPTER SIX
Greer
With my hands on my hips, I stood on the dam wall, watching my team work.
Sunshine filled the morning, as if the storm had never happened. My chest squeezed. But we all knew that Travis and Sam were gone. A pall hung over the worksite.
I let out a breath and my gaze moved to the water. Today, it was as smooth as glass. Not a single ripple.
There had been no sign of the monster so far, and I hoped it stayed that way.
My gaze shifted. North and Zeke stood nearby, carbines resting in their arms. They were watching the water with a scary intensity while they murmured to each other. Keeping my team safe.
Jameson was inside with Marc and Kai. They were planning how to take down the monster.
Jameson. That kiss.
It was all I could think about. I’d slept like crap. Yes, a part of it was because of grief and worry, and a part of it because of thatkiss. It had been more than I’d imagined. Hot, fierce, passionate. And I’d imagined a lot when it came to Jameson. I touched my lips.
The kiss had been incredible.
Then he’d backed away like I was a monster.
