CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Shell

We didn’t stay at the charity ball for much longer than forty-five minutes, which was fine with me, because the dress might have made me look hot, but it was incredibly uncomfortable and awkward. Couple that with the fact that Cade couldn’t keep his hands off of me while we were dancing, and that was kind of working me up.

He looked amazing in a suit. He seemed sophisticated and yet primal, as if he’d encased all his raw power in designer clothes. The lines of his suit seemed to have been tailored just for him, cut to show off every aspect of his phenomenal body.

But all I could think about was how badly I wanted to loosen his tie and unbutton his shirt and put my mouth on the tawny solidness of his chest and stomach.

Being with Cade was like being half-aroused all the time, and there was never any time to release all the pressure. I thought I might pop soon.

One thing that did confuse me was that I had thought that we were there so that Cade could do a job, but he hadn’t. Unless he’d gone off any killed someone in the span of ten minutes, which was the only time he left my side.

Then, as we were driving off, I heard a muffled bang from the trunk.

“What’s that?” I said.

He switched on the radio, turning it up loud. “Don’t mind that.”

Oh, God. He had a man in the trunk of the car. An alive man. Was he going to kill the man in front of me?

I didn’t know if I could…

We drove. The music blasted. Every now and again, I could hear something from the trunk.

Eventually, Cade got off the interstate, and took a series of complicated turns, until we were somewhere in the middle of nowhere, on a tiny two-lane road that didn’t even have white lines painted on the edges.

We pulled onto a one-lane bridge, and Cade stopped the car, but he left the key in the ignition, the music still pumping. “Don’t listen,” he said to me.
