Luka’s smirk drops immediately as he whips his head toward the now retreating frightened creeps. I roll my eyes as he takes a step toward them. Jax chuckles patting him on the back. “What was it you said not a minute ago? Oh yes,they’re not worth it.”

Luka narrows his eyes on Jax before landing on me. “That was before...”

Jax’s eyes widen innocently. “Before?”

Luka shakes him off turning away. “Shut up,” he mumbles.

Jax’s chuckle gets louder, releasing some of the tension in my body.

“Let’s go get a drink, I need it.”

Luka nods, both starting for the bar but stop, turning to look at me.

Jax points a finger at me. “You. You’re coming with us. I’m not letting you out of my sight. Especially in that damn dress.”

Luka looks over as if just realising what I’m wearing. I feel his slow burning gaze as it roams over me, leaving a delicious trail of heat in its place. His eyes finally meet mine, both of us lost in the moment.

Jax’s quiet chuckle startles us back to reality.

Luka clears his throat finally breaking the spell.

“Let’s get that drink.”

I take a sip of my drink, trying to calm my raising heart and the heat in my body. Raising it to the two of them, I knock it back.

“I’m good. Too bad I have somewhere to be but enjoy your drinks.” I turn to get the hell away from them and their heady scents when Jax growls in warning, halting my retreat.

I whip my head around sending him a dark glare. “Don’t you dare growl at me, Jax Delaney. You don’t own me.”

It may have been six years since we last saw one another but nothing about the guys could frighten me. Nothing.

In fact, all he’s managing to do is turn me the hell on.

Jax’s eyes narrow in warning not seeing where my mind has turned. “Get that ass over here now, before I hunt you down.” A wicked glint enters his eyes as he takes a step closer.

“Or is that what you want?” With a cruel slant to his lips, he moves like a silent predator towards his prey.

“Do you want me to hunt you, Kiarra?” I squirm in place, watching Jax move toward me. His dark eyes flash, and his smirk grows knowing what he’s doing to me.

Stepping closer he places a hand to my throat, his thumb on my accelerated pulse.

“Stalk your every move, before I hold you down and do sinfully wicked things to every inch of that sexy body?”

The slow build intensifies, as a teasing throb shoots straight to my core making me bite my lip from the moan wanting to escape.

Leaning in he whispers into my ear, each raspy word sending tingles straight to my core making me wet.

“I’d make sure you’re wholly satiated before I got my fill. Though it may take us hours, maybe even days, before I’m satisfied.”

He bites my ear making me gasp as I close my eyes against the onslaught of pleasure running through me.

“Damn.” A tortured groan pulls me out of my trance making me realise where we are and what I’m supposed to be focusing on. The contact.

Pushing him back, I follow his hand as it falls to his side. Trying to shake off the fantasies running through my mind I look anywhere but at him.

I find Luka as he’s adjusting himself. The hungry desire in his eyes makes me want to go to him. To pull his mouth to mine and find some relief from the endless pleasurable build-up they evoked in me.

Jax chuckles beside me snapping me out of my inner torment.
