“Get in the car,” I told her as I stepped back.

 

She said, “You know, saying please might not kill you,” but she turned and opened the car door.

 

She was a brat. That much I knew.

 

I waited until she was inside, then closed the door behind her. I walked to the driver’s side, took a deep breath, then got in the car.

 

“Do me a favor, Creed.”

 

“What’s that?” I asked, my hand hovering over the start button.

 

“Don’t keep playing games with me.”

 

I glared over at her, shocked that she would think I was capable of that. Here I was, being a gentleman, and she was accusing me of what? Leading her on?

 

It was enough to flip a switch inside me. That primal beast that paced deep inside me stopped moving, alert to his surroundings. Everything slowed down as one thing became my focus. Her. She was prey, and I was the predator, and the only way to sate the primal urge was to claim what was mine.

 

It took effort to contain the exigency, the desire to grab her roughly, to take because she was willing to give. The last thing I wanted was to scare the little kitten, so I reached over and slid my hand under her hair, cupping the back of her head. I pulled her toward me as I leaned in. My lips found hers in the dark. She moaned softly, and I swallowed the sound, holding it deep inside while I plundered her mouth.

 

She was liquid fire, her body instantly pliant beneath the onslaught. It triggered that instinct, had me testing the strength of those tethers holding my lust at bay.

 

“If you think for one second I don’t want to get under this dress, you’re wrong. I want nothing more,” I growled against her mouth.

 

“Then why aren’t you?”

 

I was tempted to warn her off, to tell her there were things I wanted from her that she couldn’t possibly understand because she was too innocent and pure for the likes of me. But if I did that, if I told her there would come a time when there were no requests, only demands on my part, she’d find a way to run. Sure, I fucking loved the chase, but if it wasn’t as a predator after his prey, it held no appeal. And while I’d like to shield her from that darkness, I was too fucking selfish to give her up.

 

I held her stare in the darkened car, my face inches from hers. “Pull up your dress.”

 

I felt her shift.

 

“Higher,” I commanded roughly.

 

She shifted again, the material stretching across her hips, barely maintaining the secrecy of what was beneath.

 

“Now spread your legs.”

 

I felt the tension in her neck as soon as the words were out of my mouth, but I didn’t intend to soften it with a please or thank you. I teased along her leg, moving from her knee toward the top of her thigh. Her eyes skimmed my face, but I wasn’t sure what she was hoping to find.

 

“I can hardly breathe for how much I fucking want you.”

 

Her knees fell open. “Then have me, Creed.”

 

I’d be damned if that dare didn’t threaten to snap the choke chain keeping my hunger for her from shattering us both.

 

I held her by the back of her neck as I slid my hand beneath the stretchy fabric of her dress, my fingers seeking the heat of her. I could tease and caress, but clearly, she had an end goal in mind, and since she had already caused my control to fray, I figured it was futile to turn this into a game.

 

“Fuck,” I groaned when my fingers brushed the apex of her thighs.

 

She was baby-smooth, which meant she’d waxed recently or she shaved often. I found the slick lips of her sex.

 

Twining my fingers in her hair, I pulled her head back forcefully, meeting her gaze and holding it. “Once I touch you, that’s it for me, Journey. You understand what that means?”

 

Her expression was a wild combination of confusion and lust. “What does it mean, Creed?”

 

“It means your pleasure belongs to me. Me. No one else. One taste of you won’t be enough for me. And kitten, I’m not the sweet, gentle lover you’ve fantasized about.”

 

Her eyes narrowed. “Don’t go thinking you know anything about me, Creed Granger. Sweet and gentle have nothing to do with this.”

 

That comment surprised me, but I didn’t let it deter me. “I’m demanding and possessive,” I said against her lips, my voice dropping an octave. “I take what I want when I want, and you … you’ll give it to me because you need it, too, little cat. You’ll crave what only I can give you. It’s an addiction, a need so potent you won’t understand it, but once you experience it, it’ll call out to you. Do you understand me now?”

 

She nodded as much as my firm grip on her hair would allow.

 

I nudged her legs wider, dragging my finger along the slick, warm lips of her sex before pressing deeper, seeking her tight entrance. “Your pussy’s so fucking wet.”

 

She groaned, her head falling back when I glided my finger upward along the seam. I found the little nub and circled the tip of my finger over it.

 

“Creed...”

 

“Tell me, hellcat. What do you want me to do to you?”

 

“Everything.”

 

I wasn’t expecting that, but it triggered my primal instinct. The dark, possessive beast inside me reared its head, gearing up to take what was mine. I slid one finger inside her, slow and deep, feeling the smooth walls of her cunt as they clutched at me. She was so damn tight and so fucking hot.

 

“Is this what you want?”

 

“Yes.” She bucked her hips, trying to fuck my hand.

 

“Then open your eyes and look at me,” I demanded gruffly.

 

Her eyes snapped open, meeting mine. The brilliant blue glittered in the dim light from the restaurant.

 

“Keep them open. On me.”

 

Her eyes held steady as I added another finger, sliding them through her slickness, filling her as those husky sounds grew louder. She was so fucking beautiful like that. The problem was, I knew if I fucked her, I’d never want to stop.

 

I pumped my hand faster until she was writhing against the seat, but she maintained eye contact the entire time, daring me to take this further.

 

“Jesus, you’re beautiful,” I whispered. “I want to feel that tight little pussy come all over my hand, baby. Can you do that? Can you come for me?”

 

She nodded.
