Chapter Eleven

The last thing Jax should have done was go for a long ride with Kat on the seat behind him. The weight of her, the soft press of her curves against his back settled his wolf. Easing off on the accelerator, he took a curve. She flowed with him, balancing her weight perfectly.

Perfect.

The word applied to Kat on so many levels. Levels he desperately wanted to explore, but doing so put them all at risk. Twenty minutes into the ride, he realized their destination. She’d appreciated the lookout by Abel’s, but he knew a better one—a quieter one.

When he pulled off the road and coasted to a stop, he stopped worrying about woulds, coulds, or shoulds.

“Where are we?” She eased off the bike when he came to a complete stop, then pulled her helmet off and shook her head. The length of her ponytail bobbed, and his eyes adjusted for the dark, because he wanted to see her.

“You said you forgot how pretty the area is,” he said, turning the key so the bike quieted and left them alone in the night. Taking a deep breath, he cleared his lungs of the scents from the bar and the exhaust of the bike. Instead, he drank in the sweetness of Kat. Her earlier anxiety and pain diminished, leaving only the exotic spice he’d come to associate with her. Some of his scent bled into hers, but he’d made sure to run his hands over some part of her bedding and occasionally her uniforms. It kept the guys in line.

Until tonight.

Tonight it had aggravated Norton.

Pacing away from him, Kat reached the railing of the lookout and stared out at the valley. Above them, the stars twinkled. The lack of light pollution left the sky a dazzling display—even the Milky Way glittered among diamond-bedazzled black.

“It’s beautiful.” She exhaled the words, and he couldn’t agree more.

“Not as beautiful as you,” he admitted.

Releasing a self-deprecating laugh, she glanced over her shoulder and then froze. “Your eyes.”

Fuck. He glanced away, then rubbed his eyes even as he released his night vision. It aggravated his wolf. He wanted to see her.

“Just tired.” Would she buy the weird dismissal?

He crossed over to the railing and took a place next to her. The urge to slide an arm around her and pull her against his chest so he could hold her while they stared at the stars vibrated within him. His wolf paced restlessly within him, and he hungered for her nearness. A change in position didn’t satisfy his inner demand.

“You’re not the only one,” she agreed, letting him off the hook. Then she leaned on the railing, her forearms against the wood. Mirroring her posture, he glanced at her sideways.

“Kat…”

“Jax…”

They spoke at the same time, and he grinned. “You first.”

“No, you should—you brought me out here for a reason.”

No, he’d brought her out here because he wanted her with him. The dance at the bar had left him hungry for more contact. The wolf leaned into him, pressing him into her space.
