“You don’t even like country music,” shesaid.

“You don’t know that.”

She just stared at him and he said, “Whyare you at this bar?”

“It’s ladies’ night, okay? Which you’veruined by showing up here.”

She supposed that statement would havestung him a little more if she hadn’t sounded so pathetically excited about himshowing up.

“You don’t go to bars,” he said. “Youshould be home knitting or some stupid shit like that.”

“One – you’re not the boss of me and two –knitting is not stupid.” She winced again when he stepped on her foot for asecond time.

He cursed and lifted her up until her feetwere dangling.

“What are you doing? Put me down – thisisn’t dancing.”

“I can’t fucking dance,” he said.

“Then why did you cut in? Nathan was aperfectly good dancer.”

“Because I know exactly what you wereplanning to do with that prick and it is not fucking happening,” he snarled. “DoI make myself clear, Sunshine? If you let him anywhere near your pussy, I’llbreak both his arms.”

She stared silently at him. He had givenup completely on moving and was just standing on the dance floor, holding her tightlyas the other couples moved around them. His face was red and the usual calmand collected Preacher had disappeared. He was acting like a jealous lover anda tingle of excitement went through her. Maybe Preacher wasn’t done with herafter all. She bit back a smile as a truly wicked idea flashed in her head.

No, Addie! No, that is a very, very badidea. Maybe he still wants you but there’s no point in continuing to sleepwith him. Tell him he has no say over who you can sleep with, then go and findthat nice cowboy and take him home. You’ll forget all about Preacher whenNathan’s in your bed.

She almost laughed out loud. She’d neverbeen a good liar – not even to herself.

“Did you hear me, Addison?” Preacher said.

“I heard you,” she said sweetly. “But I’mstill not feeling confident about my bedroom abilities and since my lessons areover with you, I’m looking for a new teacher.”

Preacher’s arm tightened around her untilshe gasped and smacked his back. “Can’t breathe!”

When he loosened his grip, she said, “I’vealready talked to Nathan about my problem and he’s more than happy to continuemy lessons. So, if you don’t mind…”

She stared pointedly at him. His face wasa mask of fury and his eyes glittered angrily.

Shit. Maybe she had pushed him too far.

He pressed his mouth to her ear and said ina dangerously calm voice, “You want another lesson, Sunshine? Fine. I’ll giveyou another lesson tonight. But I’m going to fuck you until your voice ishoarse from screaming my name, until you’re begging me to stop because youcan’t take one more orgasm. I’m going to fuck you until your thighs are sosore, you can’t fucking walk tomorrow. When I’m finished with you, your tightlittle pussy will know exactly who it belongs to. I promise.”

He dropped her to her feet and took herhand. “Let’s go.”

“Preacher,” she whispered. Her limbs weretrembling, her pussy was throbbing, and Preacher’s damn speech had made her sohot she couldn’t think straight.

“Let’s go, Sunshine.”

Chapter Twenty-Nine

“Preacher, are -”

“Bedroom, Addie.”

She shivered, her stomach clenching with pleasureas Preacher closed her apartment door. He took his boots off and she slipped outof her heels.

“Do you want something to drink?”
