Chapter Fifteen

Tegan

“A mercenary, as in you kill people for a living?” That should have made Tegan grab the boys and run for the door. Instead, it instilled a sense of safety. A mercenary could protect her from people like John Cashel and his mafia boss. He and his Hound friends rescuing her now made more sense. “You mentioned you took out the leaders of The Ministry, but killing is your job?”

Jax scrubbed his hands down his face before looking at her with worried eyes. “I probably should have told you that before bringing you here. If you want me to call Rory and have her take you to Providence House, I’ll understand.”

Tegan scooted closer and took his larger hand between her smaller ones. “Explain your job to me. Do you kill anyone if the price is right?”

“No. We only take out the worst sorts of scum. The killers, the rapists, the human traffickers, insane cult leaders, drug lords. And mafia dons.”

Yes! “That’s exciting. Do you carry a gun? Or do you Gryphon out on their asses and claw their eyes out?”

“Wait. You think my job is exciting?” Jackson looked gobsmacked.

“Well, yes. I don’t know you that well, but I cannot see you sitting behind a desk. You’re a Gryphon. A biker. Your job should be as thrilling as your lifestyle. I mean…” Tegan ran out of steam. “Wow.”

Jackson grinned at her, his lush lips parting to show his perfect white teeth. Tegan licked her own, slightly crooked teeth. “Did you have braces, or is your mouth as perfect as the rest of you because you’re you?”

“What?”

“Sorry. I’m getting off the subject. To answer your question, no, I’d never ask you to give up your club or your job, but that doesn’t mean you won’t get tired of me.” Tegan slumped against the back of the sofa.

Jackson grabbed Tegan around the waist and maneuvered her onto his lap. “Is this okay?”

No, it wasn’t. The closer she was to him, the more she wanted to give in and say “fuck it.” Her Lion purred, and Jackson’s eyes widened. Then he smiled. Then he cupped the back of her head and lowered his mouth to hers. Tegan wrapped her arms around his neck as he deepened the kiss, his tongue tangling with hers slowly. It was a revelation. She’d been kissed before. Not often, but it had never been good. John kissed the same way he licked her clit, flicking his tongue up and down quickly. It was why she never let him kiss her. She hated it. But this? Jackson Lynch could kiss. And if his kisses could melt her panties, she couldn’t wait to see how he was in bed. And yes, she was thinking about sex with her Gryphon.

Jax reclined on the sofa with Tegan on top of him, his erection pressing against her core. It was all she could do not to grind against it. Sexual chemistry didn’t mean he would keep her. And that was the crux of her indecision.
