LOGINJENNA’S POV“And then he just broke it off. Just like that?” Liza sobbed, scooping another massive spoon of vanilla ice cream into her mouth. “Like I meant nothing? Like what we had was nothing?”I kept my hand moving in steady, comforting circles against her back, watching the pink ice cream in my own glass bowl turn into a soup of sweet, sticky liquid.“By the time he realizes what he lost, you’ll be with someone who actually deserves you. Someone who treats you like you’re his whole damn world. Trust me.” I told her softly. I almost regretted the words the second they left my mouth, because Liza broke into another hard wave of sobs, her shoulders shaking.“But I really liked him,” she choked out, “I don’t want anyone else.”I squeezed her shoulder, a cold, violent heat settling deep in my chest. I was already calculating the ways I was going to ruin Reign the second I caught him.The fucking coward had spent a whole month love-bombing my best friend, dragging her around, making h
JENNA’S POVBefore I could answer, he reached over to his bike, grabbed the helmet off the handlebar, and shoved it over my head. He strapped the chin buckle, his thumb sweeping hard across my bottom lip before snapping the visor down.He swung his leg over the heavy bike, bringing the engine to a loud, roaring life that shook the pavement under our feet. He looked over his shoulder."Get on."I didn't hesitate. I straddled the leather seat behind him, wrapping my arms tightly around his waist and pressing my front flush against his back. Alec grabbed my hands, pulling them tighter around his ribs, making sure I was locked in place."Hold on," he warned over the thunder of the exhaust.He kicked the kickstand up and slammed the throttle, tearing out of the alley and into the night. The city lights blurred past us in streaks of white and yellow, the wind whipping around us, but all I could focus on was the solid, unyielding heat of the man between my knees.Ten minutes later, he pulled
JENNA’S POVInside the rusted iron ring, Alec looked entirely different. The easy smirk he’d worn at the bar was completely gone, replaced by a cold, deadly focus. His muscles strained under the dim yellow lights as he bounced lightly on his toes, his dark eyes locked onto his opponent—a massive, bearded guy easily pushing two hundred and fifty pounds.I could only guess though.The big guy swung first, a heavy, wild hook aimed right for Alec’s jaw. Alec ducked under it effortlessly, his feet moving in a smooth, practiced blur. He drove a brutal punch straight into the guy’s ribs, the impact echoing over the noise of the room."Damn," Knox muttered beside me, cracking open a cold bottle of beer and sliding it across the wood to a guy in a leather vest. "Alec’s not taking his time tonight. He usually likes to play with 'em first.""He’s good at this though," I said, my voice barely audible over the screaming crowd. I grabbed a glass, filled it with ice, and poured a shot of bourbon for
"You quit racing," I snapped before I could filter the words. "I don't get why you threw that away just to get beaten to a pulp underground."Alec's jaw locked, a muscle ticking under his stubble. The air in the room instantly turned ice-cold. I knew I'd hit a sore nerve, but he didn't give me a fight. He just turned, walked into the bathroom, and shut the door behind him.I wasn't going to let him walk out of here alone and ruin himself again. By the time he walked back into the bedroom, I was already standing by the door with my jacket on and my boots laced tight.Alec stopped, raising an eyebrow at me. "What are you doing?""Getting ready to leave with you."He let out a dry scoff, shaking his head. "No fucking way, Jenna.""Yes fucking way," I said, stepping right behind him as he walked out of my room "I'm coming with you so I can make sure you don't end up crashed at someone else's apartment when you get hurt."“I told you it won’t happen again” he sighed as he pushed my kitche
I was still trembling when he pulled out. The sudden emptiness made me cry out. Before I could close my legs he grabbed my hips and flipped me onto my stomach again, yanking me up onto my knees. My face stayed pressed into the mattress. He shoved two pillows under my hips so my ass was high and my chest was low—completely presented. I felt his thumb press against my asshole. I tensed instantly. “Relax,” he ordered, voice dark. “I’m not taking it tonight. But I want you to feel me everywhere.” He rubbed the pad of his thumb in slow circles over the tight ring, using the slick from my cunt to wet it. Then he pushed just the tip inside while he thrust his cock back into my pussy in the same motion. The dual invasion made me sob into the sheets. It wasn’t pain exactly—more a deep, overwhelming fullness that made my thighs shake. He fucked me like that, one thumb working shallowly into my ass while his cock pounded my cunt without mercy. Every stroke forced broken, high sounds out
She cried out around my fingers, the sound muffled and broken.I set a brutal pace, my hips snapping forward and the wet slap of skin on skin filling the quiet bedroom. Every thrust drove her higher up the bed. I released her mouth only to grab both wrists and wrench them behind her back, pinning them there with one hand while the other returned to her hair, yanking her head back so her spine arched hard, changing the angle until she was taking every inch and still trying to scramble for more.The belt was still within reach. I snatched it up again and laid three more strokes across the backs of her thighs while I fucked her. Each impact made her cunt clamp down tighter around me. She was sobbing a messy kind of cry that came from being overwhelmed rather than wanting it to stop.“Look at you,” I growled against the side of her neck. “Bent over in the bed he bought you, taking my cock like you were made for it. Tell me who you belong to.”“You,” she gasped. “Alec—I’m yo—oh god”I bi
A knock on my dragged me out of my dream.“Jenna?” Anna’s voice floated through the door, soft and overly excited for 7 a.m. “Sweetheart, it’s your first day. You have to get up!”Right, First day of school in these new town.I shot up from bed with a burst of energy I definitely didn’t have last n
If my mother lectured me any harder, the entire steering wheel would melt from the heat of her disappointment. “Jenna, I am begging you, please behave yourself this time.” She said. For the tenth time. In twenty minutes. I slouched deeper into the passenger seat, pushing one earbud in. Not bot
The next morning, I woke up feeling strangely light, a feeling I hadn’t experienced in weeks. For the first time since I arrived in this town, there was a quiet excitement humming beneath my skin, the kind that made the air itself feel different. I dressed quickly in a simple T-shirt and jeans befor
JENNA’S POVTell me why I had been trying to start this stupid car for almost thirty minutes and it still wouldn’t budge.Did Dad seriously give me one of his beat-down cars just to get me to shut up and leave him alone?I groaned and leaned back in the seat before grabbing my phone from my purse.
