Chapter 28

Harper

He has no heart, no soul, nothing but a super hot shell of a body, a six pack, and a

giant dick. I’ve never wanted to kill someone so much in my entire life. If he laid down on the street I’d run him over with his own Jeep.

It was all false bravado.

My own version of chicken, except he let me taste him, he watched me, his smirk had disappeared. I don’t know what I expected in that moment, maybe for him to taunt me or challenge me to go through with it. Instead, I realized I wanted him– wanted this, even if it meant all I was getting was angry Easton–at least in this instance I was in control and he knew exactly who was making him feel that way. I almost died when he gripped me by the hair, nearly choking me to death.

It was good

Damn it.

Ryan would decapitate him if he knew.

I get to my feet-shaking from our encounter and walk towards the fridge to grab a drink of water-soda-something that’s going to take away his taste so my body stops reminding me of what it felt like to be on my knees in Easton’s kitchen.

“What?” Easton is back to ignoring me as he grabs a bottle of water from the fridge then hands me one before opening his own and taking a few gulps. “Was it not good for you?”

“You’re an asshole.” I say reaching for the water. “I don’t suppose you have any mouthwash around for the whores you bring here?”

He smirks. “Are you calling yourself a whore?”

“You lasted like three minutes, Easton, I’d tread carefully before it’s your locker that

gets vandalized with the words Minute Man.”

“Bullshit.” He points his water bottle at me. “You took me by surprise, that’s all.”

“Mmmm, okay.”

He reaches into his back pocket and pulls out his phone. “Fuck, three missed calls is Aisha high or something?”

I flinch at Aisha’s name.

The girl he was making out with days ago.

She would hate me if she knew.

Then again.
