Chapter Ten

Palmer

Ten more minutes.

When I walked in the door, I promised myself I would only do this for ten more minutes, and if Briggs couldn’t get through his shit by then, I’d find someone else. Or at least stop trying to make me and Briggs happen.

We’ve been toeing the line, crossing it, backing up and crossing it again, and are at a point we just need a push. Which is why the second I heard Briggs shout Mo’s across the lobby I knew I needed to be here tonight. That’s about where my plan ended, but Tucker and his frat brothers barhopping for one of their birthdays at least gave me something to work with.

Tucker’s the only one who dares get too close, all of them wary of the death glares aimed at them from the corner booth.

I giggle at the appropriate time, fluttering my eyelashes at the joke one of the beefy guys playing pool just made. I have no idea what he said, but it doesn’t matter.

Every sound and move is for Briggs, a part of the game. It might be childish to try to make him jealous, but I don’t care. I just want his gaze on me, and right now, I feel it from across the bar, and it burns.

Tucker gets even more brave and slides his arm around my waist, drawing me into his side. I look up, my gaze locking with Briggs, and it all flashes between us. We both know the arm around me is the wrong one. It should be him.

It’s supposed to be him.

Then the cracks widen, Briggs throwing money on the table. And then he’s crossing the bar, long strides, and my breath comes faster. I don’t even realize I’m backing up until Tucker’s arm falls away because all I see is Briggs, stalking toward me like he’s about to tear me apart.

And I want him to.

He doesn’t slow down, catching me around the waist, his lips crashing into mine. In the same breath, he’s hiking me up, my legs wrapping around his waist. Our tongues collide, the rest of the world fucking stopping for us while he claims my mouth. I throw my arms around his neck while I throw the rest into the kiss, his strong hands gripping my ass as I moan.

I’m breathless, panting and aching.

“Mine,” he growls.

The word goes straight to my clit, setting off the buzz that hasn’t fully died since his fiery gaze first landed on me. I kiss him ravenously, his mouth claiming mine in a hot, soul stealing kiss as he carries me out of the bar, the hot and humid summer air sticking to our skin.

He opens the driver door to a black SUV and climbs in with me still in his arms, our faces inches from each other as he slams the door closed. The seat suddenly moves back, giving me room between him and the steering wheel. His teeth tug at my bottom lip before he skims his mouth down to my neck, sucking and licking at my skin like he’ll never get enough.
