he said flatly.
“Then move and let me walk out of here and you can go back to your life the way you like it,” she dared him. He looked at her silently and she spoke again. “Let me go.”
For an answer he pressed his lips to hers gently. That lasted for all but five seconds before he was devouring her mouth in a kiss that devastated her senses. Everything about him was dangerous and decadent, but as he penetrated her mouth with his tongue, Crystal gave up even that thought and immersed herself in the pleasure of his kiss. He lifted her up and she wrapped her jean-clad legs around his hard, muscled thighs. She whimpered as he pressed against her and she could feel the hard bulge of his cock. Hart thrust against her, simulating the act of fucking her and her body exploded in ecstasy. He did it again, harder, while their lips clung and tongues dueled. If he kept that up she would come right then and there and they still had their clothes on. There was a hair’s breadth between his lips and hers when he spoke.
“I could fuck you right now and you wouldn’t say no.”
“You don’t know that for sure,” she whispered.
He gave a soft laugh. “If I slipped my fingers in you right now you’d be so wet. Your panties are probably soaked. Your nipples are hard under that thin sweater. I can feel them through your bra. Say no to me, Crystal.”
“No,” she practically whimpered. God, his words were like heat against her skin.
“That doesn’t sound too sure or forceful,” he murmured and bit her bottom lip gently.
“Regardless, it’s still no,” Crystal answered.
“Very true.” Hart stepped away and she instantly felt the loss of his touch. “Run away, southern belle, and I bet you I’ll be in your dreams tonight. But one more thing.”
“What’s that?” She was trying hard to find her composure.
“The next time I see you like this, I will take you hard and hot until you’re screaming my name while my tongue is buried in your pussy,” Hart promised. “Then I’m going to fuck you in so many different ways and you’ll still beg for more. Not like those men in those books you have stacked up there, but like a real man, pulling your hair and telling you dirty, nasty things.” He stepped close again and she swallowed hard. “So run away, sweetheart, and come back when you’re ready to play with the big bad wolf.”
Crystal did just that. After picking up her purse and the envelope, she fled her office and didn’t stop until she got to her car. Inside, she leaned against the steering wheel and tried to regain her composure. She saw him come out and their eyes met and held. She felt a shudder roll through her. His gaze spoke volumes and his intent was clear. He wanted her and damn if she didn’t want to say yes. He watched her as she pulled out of the parking lot. He probably wanted to make sure she got out of there okay. She drove the opposite way from where she knew the Deuces bikers were staying, not wanting to give them any reason to chase her down. All the way back to Lyn’s he kept her eye constant on the rearview mirror and her phone ready to call for help in case she saw anyone following her. All the while her thoughts were on Hart and how he had made her feel. Getting naked and between the sheets with him would bring her the utmost pleasure, that wasn’t a doubt. But when he left he’d shatter her heart. A leopard never changes its spots and a bad boy never gives up the life, even if he seemed great with kids.

So it’s time to set a fire under some people , Hart thought with too much devilish pleasure. While Crystal may have thought he was just staying at the motel to secure her property, there was something more. He needed to be able to move around without questions and being alone in a motel was the best place to be. With her keys, he changed rooms every night in case someone came looking.
But at night he tracked the bikers and the dirty cops easily, collecting evidence
