away!”
“Easy way or hard way Alesha. Doesn’t matter much to me, but it might to your uncle.”
“Go to hell you fucking nut!”
“Okay, the hard way then.” He took a step back and with his shoulder pushed the door open, busting the lock.
“Are you out of your mind!” Alesha yelled.
“Without a doubt.” Jonah closed the broken door behind him. Within seconds he closed the distance between them, boxing her to the far wall.
“What’d you doing?” she asked.
“What’d you think I’m doing?” he tossed right back at her.
“I think,” she didn’t finish her statement but he got the point pretty clear when her knee came up and made contact with his groin. “I think you’re an asshole and need to get the fuck out of here right now!”
Jonah dropped to the ground, freeing her for a few precious moments. She dashed to the door, it flew open and out she went. He took several deep breaths, waiting for the pain to move on so he could finish what he started. This had to be a first for him. Just had to be! Yep, he thought about it while on his knees, no one else had ever racked him before. Most of the females he met tried to get in his pants, not try to crush his manhood.
Lucky for him it didn’t last. The pain went away quickly and he was able to stand again. One deep breath and he was heading to the door, jerking it open and looking around. Ashley stood there with her eyes wide. Jonah watched her closely. Watching for a small sign as to where her daughter might’ve gone. She didn’t even realize her eyes made a movement towards the second closed door on the floor. When she did notice what she had done, both hands went up to her mouth, shock spread across her face. Keeping his mouth shut and working to keep the anger at being kneed under control, Jonah went right to the door, sniffed then took a step back and kicked it in.
Alesha jumped. “You’re insane!”
Jonah charged her and she instantly backed up. With her eyes wide open, she turned and rushed towards another door. She had it opened and he closed it right back with his hand right over her head, body pressing up against hers.
“That wasn’t nice,” he said in her ear.
She turned around, facing him. “Look, this is crazy. We had sex, okay, I’ll admit it. But that’s it. Just sex. Get over yourself if you think I’m going to be this little tame pet you all think the women should be like just because we fooled around. And for your information I’m not nice. Ever!”
“A pet huh? Cute, real cute.”
She pushed at his chest, and then slapped his hand away when he reached up to touch her face. “I’m serious. I’m not bowing down to anyone around here so you’re wasting your time and might as well leave before you break more shit.”
“Not going anywhere—alone.”
“What do you mean you’re not going anywhere alone? Get out.”
“I mean I’m not leaving here empty handed.” He waited a few seconds for his statement to sink in and when it did he grinned. “Yep, you heard right. You’re going with me.”
“The hell I am!” she pushed against his chest, but it did little good in making him move away from her. He had a hunch if she was back in the human world her little pushing and kicks would do some damage, but here she pretty much had met her match.
“Do you know what it means to lock inside you?”
“I don’t give a shit what it means. I’m not going anywhere with you and that’s final.”
Jonah sighed, “Well I had a small amount of hope you might be reasonable but I guess being among the humans as long as you have has had its effect on you.”
“And what the hell is that supposed to mean?”
“It means easy or hard, you’re being claimed.” Jonah took a step back, grabbed both of her arms and jerked her hard and fast to him where he bent over and picked her right up, slinging her over his shoulder.
