Spicy (Bad Boy Rockers 2)

Donovan drops his head to the curve of my neck and breathes – heavily. “You’re killing me.”

He briefly presses me closer to him before letting me go, albeit reluctantly.

“I’m sorry. I can’t do this. It won’t happen again,” he apologizes and then I hear his bedroom door slam shut.

My tears start to flow from my eyes as I slowly push my way into my bedroom and closing the door behind me, I lie across the bed and cry.

Now I know he isn’t indifferent to me, it’s going to hurt all the more knowing he isn’t willing to do anything about it.

Chapter 31

Donovan

Fuck!

I slam into my bedroom and just stand in the middle of the room not knowing what the fuck to do with myself. I promised Reece I’d stay away from his sister and what do I go and do? I go and practically pin her to the door with every intention of loving her. Loving her.

She’s Reece’s baby sister and is a total no. I’ve managed to keep her at a distance for years, but the fact is, she drives me totally insane and only has to look in my direction to give me an erection from hell. She thinks or rather thought that I don’t like her, but the truth is I’m fucking obsessed with her. I’m obsessed with an eighteen year old virgin…at least I presume she’s a virgin. I scowl at the thought of anyone else touching her because she belongs with me. Dammit to hell!

Dropping down on top of my bed, I catch my breath because I’d forgotten about the problem in my jeans, which I refuse to take care of myself. If I took care of it I wouldn’t get the relief that I’d get between her sexy thighs so why settle for second best.

My erection throbs so rolling over onto my back I hope for some kind of relief while I clear my thoughts of Mara. Sweet Mara.

Fuck this. Jumping up from the bed and grabbing my gym bag, I walk back out into the living area and hunt around for my sneakers, which I kicked off when I’d crashed out on the sofa last night.

Spotting them under one of the stools at the breakfast bar, I drop my bag and I’m about to reach for them when I spot Mara standing just outside her bedroom door watching me.

Wondering what the hell is going through her mind as she continues to watch me, I reach down and collect my sneakers, tossing them into my bag.

She looks lost, which makes my heart drop like lead to my feet. All I want to do is walk over to where she’s standing and wrap her up in my arms and tell her I’m never letting go, but instead, I turn my back on her pretending to look for my keys, which I know are in the dish by the door.

“Donovan, you can stop ignoring me. I know this is awkward, but it’s only a week, right? We’re both adults so I’m sure we can act like it.” She turns away, but not before I watch her wipe a tear from her face. Making me feel like the biggest jerk around.

After promising Reece I’d stay away from his little sister three years ago, I’d gone and lead with my heart, earlier and now she couldn’t even look at me, and I’ve upset her. If she has any of the feelings that I have for her then she’s feeling crushed as though a vice is crushing her heart because that’s how I’m feeling.

“Mara…”

“Please Donovan. Let’s just try and forget what happened earlier and move on. I’m at college on Monday so I’ll make new friends my own age. You don’t have anything to worry about.” She disappears into her bedroom, closing the door behind her.

Make friends my own age. You don’t have anything to worry about.

Her words have frozen me to the spot as I feel my anger slowly rising. I’ll kill any fucker who so much as looks in her direction and look they will, with her long dark hair, slim curvy figure and legs that seem to go on for miles even though she’s shorter than me. She’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen and the only woman that’s ever taken root in my heart apart from my mother. She’s also the only woman that I can’t be with, and that tears me in two.

Epilogue

Reece

(4 weeks later)

“Callie, you have to promise me you’ll behave tonight. No more interfering with Mara and her…new friend.” Yeah, I struggle to say ‘new friend’ because I’m not sure I actually like him, but seeing the way Donovan scowls every time he sees them together before he disappears, makes me keep pushing them closer together. I can’t even remember his name, which actually says it all. But my best friend is eight years older than my baby sister, plus I know what he’s like, so yeah, I want to keep him away from her.

Creeping up on me, my girl smacks me across the back of my head. “Stop trying to push her together with Mr. Straight and Boring. He looks vanilla and Mara needs…” she meets my gaze and smirks, “someone like you who knows where he’s going. Someone who’ll cherish and love her forever.” She grins. “Someone who knows exactly how to make her scream in pleasure.”

I cringe when she finishes. “I really don’t want to hear my sister in the same comment about someone making her scream in pleasure…that’s not normal.”

“What’s not normal, her screaming in pleasure? Or you making me scream?” Callie comments slipping her hand into the front of my pants.

“I love making you scream, babe, but hearing ‘screaming in pleasure’ when you’re referring to my sister knocks me sick.”
