I scrambled to pull the boyshorts up my legs before he came back in the room. Getting my dress off and my tank on had taken entirely too much of the one minute he'd given me. With a wince, I crashed back onto the bed as I heard his footsteps reach the outside of my doorway.Holy cannoli that had been close. "Where are your extra towels?" he asked.I looked over at him. He was stirring something in a bowl, his gaze fixed to my body. And not my legs. I glared at him. Not that he noticed. I snapped my fingers. Waited until he raised his gaze to my eyes. "Friends, Ten. Friends."He grimaced and glared. "I already hate that nickname. Towels?"I pointed him back towards the bathroom. "Same cabinet, lower right." I was keeping that nickname until a better one came along. It was so very fitting. In a number of ways. Ryker came back out of the bathroom. A towel draped over one arm, a glass bowl with something white in it. He set both on the floor next to my bed. Reaching dow

I bit my lip as she wiggled and slithered around on the bed. She was going to drive me fucking bonkers. Her moans had me believing in angels. Forcing myself to keep the pressure light, correct, was the worst lesson in self-control I'd had in at least a decade. Her pelvis dipped low and bumped up as I tried to keep being her friend. Think of Grams. Think of Grams. Think of Grams. Treat her like a princess. Grams' sweet voice in my head helped clear the lust that was as thick as the lotion I was using on Willow. Sweet fuck, let this be over soon. Her left leg pushed into my hip. Shit. Her other leg. Not to mention the backs of her legs. I was going to implode. Or die. Can someone die from blue balls? Is that a thing?It had started out fine. Very platonic. I could feel the fluid sitting just beneath her skin. Felt it move out of the way under the light force of my hands. Her skin was losing that puffiness that accompanied the purple and blue colors. At least in her lower

I hurried to sit up. My body was mostly mush, so it took a hot minute. I grabbed onto Ryker's leg to help. He shoved me away like I was a leper.I fell back against the pillows. "Minus five points," I said under my breath. "Jerk."He sighed, reached over, and helped me sit. "Can I have them back now?"I narrowed my eyes at him. "Maybe.""What are you two whispering about? Why is Ryker on your bed?" Tali asked, arms crossed, one hip popped out. She tapped her long red nails against her opposite arm. "I'm waiting.""He was helping me with my legs. Apparently there's a type of massage that helps move fluid around. Lymphatic massage." I looked at Rafe, glared. "At least he didn't drug me."Rafe ducked his head, scooted away from the doorway. "That's not going to save you, Rafe. We're going to have words, you and me," I yelled after him. I looked at the other Amatucci siblings. "How's Momma?"Tali shook her head. "Nope. Still on you and Ryker."I rolled my eyes. "He

I slammed the car door behind me as I slid into the driver's seat. Curling my fingers around the wheel, I gripped it so hard my knuckles turned white as a cramp spasmed through my palm. What the fuck had I been thinking? I wanted to hit something. Kick it. Beat it to a bloody pulp. If my own ass had been within reach, I would have laid me out. I'd been so close to getting her under me. Had it not been for my big stupid mouth, the next time I met up with Willow, I could have closed the deal. But no, Domenico came in. All but pissed on her to claim his territory and I'd snapped. She'd been calling my name, moaning under my hands. She was fucking mine!I stabbed the button to turn the car on. Waited for the systems check before gunning it. I headed out of the parking garage. Turned so fast, my tires squealed. Fury blinded me as I shot down the street. When I almost took out a nice couple too wrapped up in each other to notice the silent bullet of my Tesla firing down the street

"Chase, you've got a visitor," Tali called from the door. I looked up at the clock over the oven. Shit. I hadn't planned on losing that much time to baking. I grabbed the hotpads and pulled the cupcakes from the fiery depths of the oven. "Let him in, Tali. Thanks," I called. I eased the cupcakes from the pan and settled them on a cooling rack. I still needed to get the frosting put together. Hopefully this affidavit nonsense didn't take too long. I turned around and eyed my official visitor. He was one of those guys who was utterly forgettable. Poor thing. "Come on in. Can I get you anything to drink? Dom should be here soon."The DA's assistant tugged at his tie. "No, ma'am, but thank you. It sure smells good in here."I smiled. "Thank you, and please call me Willow. I'm not old enough to be a ma'am yet."He smiled politely as he set his briefcase down on the high top counter section of the kitchen island. "What are you making?" He gave a dramatic sniff of the room.

You're one hell of a kisser, Ryker. You should come with a warning label. Her words banged around my mind like they were the steel sphere in a vintage pinball machine. Her lips had been everything I thought they would be. Decadent, plush, velvety. What hadn't been in the top ten descriptors I'd come up with for her mouth: Uninterested. But that's exactly what I'd felt from her. As if she'd been locked away behind a frozen sheet of glass, I hadn't been able to reach her. Get her to respond. Get her involved. Nothing like the moaning woman from last night who'd all but writhed in my arms. Or called me last night to check on me. The doors slid closed, cutting her off from my view. What the fuck had just happened? I replayed the whole scene again. She'd been right there with me. Edgy as fuck, her breathing uneven, her body sending all the right signals. I hadn't been imagining them or misreading them. I banged my forehead softly against the stainless-steel elevator doors. I'd f

It was a good thing I had an industrial sized mixer. I would have beaten the cake batter into unusable lumps if I'd had to do it all by hand. Instead, I sat back and glared at the mechanical arm that sliced through the batter like it was a hot knife through butter. Shame and embarrassment slid through me again. My stomach soured as I thought of the idiot I'd made of myself. Now, I was going to have to act like we could still be friends. That I hadn't insulted him with my disappearing act.I shuddered as the humiliation surged through me again. The black hole that lived inside me grew and pulsed as my inner asshole rose to vibrant life. No one will love you. How can they? You're a murderer. You helped a serial killer destroy countless lives. You killed daughters, sisters, mothers, aunts, cousins. You're worthless. He should've just killed you. Then all those other women and girls would still be alive. They're better than you. Even as society's trash, they were better than you.

My phone rang just as I was getting ready to pick it up and make a call. I smiled when I saw Willow's name scroll across the screen. She'd reached out to me again. I intended for it to be at least a daily occurrence. I hit the connect button. "Hey, cupcake. I was just getting ready to call you."A low, mechanical whine rose over the line. I could hear her breathing, slow. Measured. The hairs rose on my arms as I waited for her to speak. "Willow?" I called. What the fuck was going on? A feeling of dread sank into my neck.Nothing but that droning whine filled my ear. I pulled the phone from my ear, checked to see if we were still connected. We were. I put the phone back up to my head. "Willow Chase," I barked, putting steel in my voice. Nothing. Nothing but a motor spinning in the background. Something was very wrong. I plugged my free ear, prayed I would hear something from her. "Why did you kiss me like that?" she asked finally. Her voice was monotone. Dolls had
