Rose rolled her eyes. “You do remember that I’m twenty-six, right? More than old enough to drink or have sex, even the kinky stuff that goes on here.”
I winced. “Come on, kiddo. I really don’t want to hear my baby sister talking about sex.”
She chuckled, and I decided it would be worth feeling uncomfortable if it got her to laugh like that.
“You know, now that I’m here for who knows how long, maybe I should look into getting a membership. It’d give me something to do,” she teased.
“You’re killing me, Rose,” I groaned. “Please, don’t do that. I know you’re old enough, but I really don’t want to risk coming here and running into you grinding on some leather-clad stud.”
Now she let out that loud, boisterous laugh that I had always loved, and I felt some of the tightness in my chest ease. She was going through a rough patch, but she would be okay.
“Come on,” I said, opening the door.
The music when the elevator door opened on the ground floor was deafening, so we didn’t talk as I escorted her through the club to the front entrance. To my relief, nothing too wild was happening, though I had to shoot a couple of ‘big brother’ death glares at a few guys who were clearly eye-fucking Rose. I knew that, technically, she was old enough to make her own choices about who she dated, and if she chose someone from here, I’d accept it.
Well, after a very thorough background check and a conversation where I made my intentions crystal clear for her potential suitor, then I’d accept it.
Maggie’s car was pulled up to the curb right in front of the club, so we headed straight for it. The driver opened the door for Rose while I leaned down to greet my step-cousin. It didn’t surprise me that Drake had Maggie using a driver, but I was a little shocked that she’d given in. We didn’t chat long since this wasn’t an actual parking spot, but it was enough for me to tell both women that we needed to get together soon and to ask how the little rugrats were doing.
By the time I headed back into the club, I was smiling despite still being slightly worried about Rose. I was halfway to the elevator, completely intending to go back to Gavin’s office to finish what we had started, when I saw Sienna standing next to the door to a private room. That strange magnetic pull I always seemed to feel around her came back with too much force for me to resist.
I changed direction and headed straight for her, running over possible conversation starters in my head. However, I didn’t even have a chance to say a word before she snapped at me.
“What do you want?” She glared at me, folding her arms across her chest.
I pretended not to notice how her particular stance pushed up her breasts into a cleavage that was even more mouth-watering than normal.
“I just wanted to say hello, but apparently today’s not a good day for that,” I shot back. “Though I would like to know if you’re biting the heads off of every guy that talks to you like you’re some sort of praying mantis, or am I just special?”
Her mouth twisted into a scowl, and she turned on me with a finger already out to jab into my chest, but froze when a tall guy in a ‘Security’ shirt walked by. A snide remark was on the tip of my tongue when she grabbed my arm and dragged me into the private room next to where she was standing.
When it closed behind me, all the noise from the club cut off, making her next words crystal clear.
“You are such a pain in my ass!”
“Is that what you’re into?” I stepped closer into her personal space. “Because spanking your ass until you can’t sit without thinking of me is awfully appealing.”
Color crept into her cheeks, and I wondered if her ass would turn that same pretty shade of red under my hand. She didn’t, however, back down. Instead, she closed the last of the distance between us, leaving barely an inch of space. Looking up at me, her eyes flashed, heat mixed in with the anger there. That electricity between us was stronger than ever, and my blood rushed south.
“You’ve got a high opinion of yourself,” she said. “Want to put your money where your mouth is?”
I smirked at her. “I’d rather put my mouth somewhere else and show you why I can think highly of myself.”
There was a beat, and then she was pulling my head down and crushing her mouth against mine. It only took a second for my brain to catch up, and then I was pushing her up against the wall and taking control of the kiss.
CHAPTER TEN
Sienna
What had I been thinking, letting this happen? No, that wasn’t right. I knew exactly what I’d been thinking when I kissed him: I wanted this. Him. Now. And I wasn’t about to let a little thing like sanity get in my way.
Fury’s lips on mine sent a jolt through my body, short-circuiting any rational thought. All I knew was that I needed more of that electric touch. I wound my arms around his neck, feeling the flex and shift of powerful muscles beneath my palms. His hands roamed eagerly, sending flames licking across my skin even through the thin barrier of my dress.
A sharp intake of breath as he lifted me, my legs locking around his waist. I could feel the hard planes of his body, every ridge and contour, as he pressed against me. My core clenched, aching for more contact, and I squirmed, desperate for relief from the building tension.
He must have felt my need because he suddenly ground his hips into mine, the considerable bulge in his pants igniting a fire. I wanted to feel all of him now. My fingers dug into his shoulders, urging him closer as I arched my back, seeking more friction.
Then his hands were on me, slipping beneath my dress to stroke my overheated skin. With a growl, he hauled me against him, his fingers teasing their way under my panties. The touch of his calloused fingers on my sensitive flesh made me gasp.
