“Yes, I heard all about that last night too.”
“If he takes them, I’m dead.”
“Do you really think I would track you here and then let him leave with the eggs? Maybe it’s about time you start trusting me.”
“I don’t know you,” she snapped.
I snagged her around the waist and pulled her against me. “Then it’s about fucking time you started.”
I pressed a bruising kiss to her lips, refusing to give in even when she pushed at my shoulders. I was tired of chasing this woman, only for her to leave me in the dust. I would prove to her I was here for her even if it killed me.
“Nicholas—” she panted. Her shoves turned into twisting my shirt in her fingers. I grabbed her hands, trying to stop her as she pulled at the hem of my shirt, but she yanked back and landed a bruising slap across my face.
My head snapped to the side with the force of her hit. Slowly, I turned back to her, the anger and need raging inside me. Grabbing her by the arms, I tossed her up against the wall and pressed my body to hers.
“Don’t fight me.”
“Don’t tell me what to do.”
She tried to shove me off her and I grabbed her wrists, slamming them against the wall above her head. Defiance flared in her eyes, but her body was begging me for more. Clasping her wrists in one hand, I slid my other hand down her waist, flicking the button on her pants.
“Be a good girl and stay still.”
“I was never very good at listening.”
But when I slid my hand inside her pants and brushed her clit with the tips of my fingers, she stilled, needing my touch more than she needed to prove she could stand on her own.
Hot, wet heat flooded my fingers as I swirled her tight bud. She panted with need, her fists clenching with the need to break free, but that wasn’t happening. Running my nose along the length of hers, I slid my lips over hers, devouring her and taking what was mine. My teeth clamped down on the delicate lobe of her ear, not releasing her until she hissed in pain.
“Tell me you need me.”
Her trembling breath almost had me believing she could hold out. But her pussy wouldn’t be denied. She craved this as much as I craved the chase—the need to know where she was and protect her from any threats. She may not need my protection, but that wouldn’t stop me from intervening and making sure no harm came to her.
“Tell me,” I repeated, pinching her clit just a little too forcefully.
She gasped, her head slamming back against the wall as she fought the waves of pleasure I forced through her body.
“Say it.”
“No!” she gasped.
“It’s not that fucking hard,” I snapped, getting really pissed now. “I’m a man. I protect you.”
“I take care of myself.”
“And I’m there for backup,” I demanded. “You can’t always be alone.”
Her gaze snapped to mine and fire lit her eyes. “I’m always alone.”
“Not anymore.”
If she didn’t believe me now, she never would. And I couldn’t blame her. I stalked her. I fucked her. But I didn’t really know her. That was all about to change.
In a matter of seconds, we were both naked from the waist down. I guided my cock to her entrance and slammed inside, taking what I desperately needed. I hadn’t even realized I’d released her wrists until she wrapped them around my neck and pulled me closer. Her nails scraped against my skin as I thrust inside her, driving home the point that this was not over.
“I hate you.”
“I need you,” I panted.
