Was it possible for a heart to explode out of a man's
chest? Because that's exactly how Sebastian felt being so
close to Brie. Not being able to touch her was making him
insane. The sexual tension blazing between them was so
thick he could taste it. He knew she felt it, too, and had
since they'd fucked in her bathroom, exchanging secret
glances every chance they got, brushing up against each
other with every opportunity.
The memory of touching her had his fingers tightening
around the steering wheel. The need to hold her in his
arms, press his lips to hers, taste her succulent body,
everything he wanted to do to her was driving him wild.
Biting the inside of his of his mouth, he imagined what
it would be like to take his time savoring her body. He
didn't want to just fuck her pussy and mindlessly ravage
her body. He wanted to love her, sample every inch of her
flesh until she was writhing in his arms from unbelievable
bouts of passion. Passion he brought out in her.
The heat of her stare was like fire blazing over the
sensitive flesh of his body. The desire in her eyes
awakened his soul. She stole the breath from his lungs and
revved his blood.
He heard her shift and glanced up into the rearview
mirror to look at her, sitting in the backseat of his
dually pickup truck, arms folded over her chest. Brie's
soothing voice pulled him out of his sexual thoughts and
back into reality—a reality that reminded him that he
was sitting next to his brother, racing down Interstate 20,
running and hiding from a serial killer.
Brie released a heavy sigh, then asked, "Are you sure
we need to do this?"
"Yes!" Sebastian and Jonah replied in unison.
Brie blew out an exhausted sigh. Her eyes roaming over
the tan leather interior. "I didn't know you owned a pickup
truck. I pictured you as more of a Mercedes kind of guy."
Her eyes darted to the back of Sebastian's head.
"I have one of those, too," he said with a deep husk in
his voice. He glanced at her from the rearview mirror,
holding her gaze, then he quickly looked away before the
desire he felt for her rushed to his cock. Driving with a
hard–on was a real bitch. "To be clear, there are a
lot of things you don't know about me."
Like what the moon does to me, or how just being near
you drives me wild, makes me want to ravage your body in
ways you only dreamed...ways I only dreamed.
She rolled her eyes at him. "So tell me again, where
are we going exactly? And how long will we be there?"
"We're taking you to our ranch in east Texas. We have
well over three thousand acres of land. Total seclusion.
It's the perfect place to keep out of sight while the Fed's
track down dear old Mason Levi." He glanced back at the
mirror again to see her huff out another breath, her
patience thinning. He grinned. "Don't worry, little lady,
we'll be there shortly." Her eyes moved to meet his once
again. He couldn't help but feel his heart pound harder and
harder in his chest as his eyes swept over her sweet,
heart–shaped face.
Damn, did she not know how beautiful she was?
"And what if they never find him?"
"They will," Jonah said without hesitation. "But if
they don't, you'll have no choice but to live with us at
the ranch...forever."
"Forever," she balked. "Are you out of your ever loving
mind?"
Jonah cocked his head, his playboy grin gleaming across
his face. "Some might say that, but honestly, you won't
have to worry about that because Mason Levi will be caught."
"How can you be so sure?"
Jonah glanced over at his brother. They exchanged an
understanding glance. With a nod, Sebastian said, "Because
no other option is acceptable, Brie." His eyes sought out
her reflection in the mirror. "We will not have you living
in fear for the rest of your life. Jonah and I will see
that this nightmare ends for you no matter what it takes,
but in the meantime we're all going to make the best out of
this situation. Consider this a well–earned vacation."
"Right, a vacation." She snickered. "Something I have
no experience with. What exactly does someone do on a
vacation?"
Eyebrows raised, he glanced over his shoulder. Jonah
said, "I can think of a lot of things we can do." His dusty
brown brow danced up and down.
The heat of embarrassment reddened Brie's cheeks.
Sebastian glared over at his brother, wanting to smack the
back of his head. He'd have to wait till later to scold
Jonah for his sexual innuendoes. Of course, if Brie didn't
appreciate that side of Jonah, she never let on to it.
"There are tons of things to do. We have private lakes
for swimming and boating, hiking and biking trails, horses
and livestock to tend to, and a house big enough that
should you want to escape for privacy, nothing would stop
you." He smiled at her. "Trust me when I say there are
plenty of things to do and tons of places to explore.
You'll have a great time."
And maybe you'll even have a helluva time as I fuck you
senseless in my bed, on the couch, or in the woods...He
only hoped.
