I knew she would try and avoid me. So I made damn sure to be up at the ass crack of dawn. I was just about to say fuck it and wait for her on the couch when I heard the bedroom door creak open.

Her startled eyes looked tired, and I almost felt guilty because I knew she had tossed and turned all night over what I’d said, over what we’d done. But when that looked turned from tired to heated in a nanosecond, I couldn’t give a shit about guilt.

Last night was…no words. Tasting her again after so long had almost been my breaking point. After she punched me in the guts with her words, I stewed in my thoughts long enough to ignore a call from Royce, again, and replay the words Deklan said.

She’s yours. Stop being a pussy and take what’s yours.

My brother could learn a thing or two about tact, but he wasn’t wrong. Ember had always been mine, would always be and the sooner she accepted that, the better for both of us. She was pissed at me with good reason, but she wanted me; she was still as much in love with me as I was with her. It was that thought that got me moving two hours after she’d closed the bedroom door last night and easing over to her door. I smirked when I tried the knob and met resistance. I knew she’d lock it; it was classic dangle the prey in front of the predator and then hide technique. I could still smell her on me. It almost wasn’t fair; she needed to watch more Animal Planet because the predator always got its prey.

I knew Ember would have let me do anything to her last night, but for once, I thought with my head and not my dick. I knew if I did what my cock demanded, it would only mess things up more than they already were. I wanted Ember to know she was more than this, more than a quickie. Even though I was willing giving myself a case of blue balls, I left her sated and loose and slinked off to the damn guest room for a night of restless sleep.

My phone snapped me out of my daydream, bringing me back to the here and now.

I looked at my phone as my dad’s corporate line flashed across the screen, then glanced at the time before I slid it to answer. Guess this was where I got my persistence from, my father didn’t give up.

“If this is about work, I thought I made it clear I wasn’t coming in. Ever.” I had made that clear when I told him in no uncertain terms that I quit. I didn’t really need to work anyway , with what my mother had left Dek and me in her will on top of what I already had in the bank from working for my father, I wasn’t worried about income.

“Uhh, Mr. Kane? This is Linda, your father’s Eastern Regional Chief Operator .
