“Fine,” I say. “Let’s get this over with.”

“It’s about a three-hour trip to Vancouver and an hour to the strait. You all can go below deck and I’ll call for you when we get to the big bad.” Cal points to the stairs behind him.

Jayden grasps my hand and leads me down the stairs to the cabin below deck. He pulls me through an open door into a storage room. His lips crash down on mine as he shuts the door with his foot and pushes me against the wall.

“The next time you suggest that I leave you alone on a mission, I’m going to chain you to my bed and edge you until you’re crying and begging for me to stop. Understand? I’m not fucking leaving you, ever.”

“Jayden,” I whisper.

“The next words from your mouth better beI understandor I’ll give you a taste of that right here,” Jayden snarls.

Black is bleeding into the blue of his irises as he loses what little control he has on his shadows. They pulse and writhe up his arms.

“I understand,” I gasp just before he smashes his lips to mine again.

“I searched for you for an entire day, baby. I did nothing for an entire day but scour the entire coast of Seattle. Even with the waves crashing like thunder.”

“I’m here now, Jayden. I need you guys to be safe though, and being around me obviously isn’t safe for any of you.”

Jayden cups my cheeks. “I already told you I would die for you. I would burn the world to the ground if it meant you were safe.”

“We’re trying to save the world, not destroy it,” I whisper.

“I don’t care about the world. I’m a selfish asshole. I’m only here because you are. You care about the world and have this need to save it, but I just want to save you.” Jayden kisses me again and I open for him, letting our tongues battle together.

I pour everything into this kiss. Every emotion I’m not ready to name and he does the same. It’s a claiming kiss. My body heats up as I grip his T-shirt and pull him closer to me. Jayden presses me harder into the door, his hips pressed against mine, and the bulge in his jeans rubs my thigh.

“Jayden,” I whisper against his lips. “We can’t do this here.”

“We can if you can be quiet. Can you be quiet for me, baby?” He kisses and licks down the column of my throat.

Jayden’s hand pushes inside my jeans and panties and he growls at the wetness he finds as he circles my clit with his thumb.

“Jayden,” I say and he nips my neck.

“That’s not being quiet,” he growls against my throat.

“We shouldn’t be doing this here,” I say but my hands dig into his back, pulling him closer.

“I need you. Right fucking now, baby. I was terrified when you disappeared right out of my fucking sight—just gone. I need to feel you.”

I’m already close between his words and his deft fingers circling me. I’m climbing to the peak. Maybe it’s the forbidden that has me pulling him closer and sliding my hands beneath his shirt to trail my fingers over his rock-hard abs. Someone could walk in at any moment and that just ratchets up the excitement.

“I’m right here, Jayden,” I say, breathless.

Jayden pops the button on my jeans and pushes them down my thighs before spinning me around so I’m pressed against the door.

“You’re so fucking perfect,” he whispers and kisses the back of my thighs.

“What are you doing?” I ask.

“I’m worshipping my goddess,” he says.

His tongue runs up my entrance and a heady moan escapes my lips.

“Shhh. I told you to be quiet. You don’t want them to hear us, do you?” Jayden asks before sucking my clit into his mouth.

Fuck. This asshole is torturing me. How the hell am I supposed to be quiet when he does that? A whimper escapes and Jayden stops. He laps at my pussy in slow, languid strokes, edging me just enough to drive me insane.
