Ride With The Devil (Devil's Riders 2)

Good.

He didn't think he could handle seeing her walk around in it. She'd liked it though. Why hadn't the girl bought herself a dress?

That's what girls did, wasn't it? Especially spoiled little rich girls like her. Daddy’s girls who were too good for the likes of him.

He followed them to the next store, deep in thought.

Chapter Eleven

Janet

Janet had been scanning the mall for help wanted signs since she walked in. It was a shame her parents had cut her off when she dropped out of school. That red dress had been really cute on her.

She grinned to herself. Jack had certainly thought so.

The big man thought he was being subtle but she'd caught him staring at her almost constantly. His eyes had nearly bugged out of his head when he saw her in the tight little number.

Maybe he did like her, but he had a stomach ache? That's probably what it was. She smiled deviously as she imagined handing him a bottle of antacid and a tablespoon.

"Look Jan- there's a help wanted sign!" Kaylie was pointing to one of the restaurants in the food court. Janet almost rolled her eyes.

Great. Mommy and daddy would just loveee that.

It was one of those restaurants where the girls had to wear skimpy outfits while they waited tables. She was definitely not into doing that.

That's until she caught the look on Jack's face. He disapproved clearly. He probably thought a girl like her wasn't good enough to be friends with Kaylie. She squared her shoulders and smiled at her friend.

"Perfect."

Jack’s scowl seemed to get even deeper if that was possible. She smiled and strode across the food court.

Time to call his bluff, and maybe get a job in the meantime. A job that would make her parents see red.

But anything was preferable to staying under their thumbs.

Chapter Twelve

Jack

He’d thought he was in hell already. He’d been wrong.

Jack stared as Janet filled out the application. She was going to get hired, that much was obvious. The manager was practically drooling on her.

Maybe she liked that. She should be used to it by now.

Jack narrowed his eyes. If that’s what she was into, so be it. She could wait forever. Jack wasn’t going to fawn all over the girl.

She looked overjoyed to be put on display like a piece of meat. The girls that worked there were half-naked. He didn't think a girl like her should be working at a place like that.

She was too good for it.

Clearly though, the manager was thrilled with her. He kept touching her arm and smiling at her. But he wasn't smiling at her, he was smiling at her boobs.

Jack wanted to kill him.

"If you would just try this on in the back, I can take a picture and send it to headquarters."

Janet giggled and disappeared into the back with the uniform. Dev and Kaylie were sitting at the bar with their heads together. They were always like that, totally in tune. Too bad that right now it meant they were missing what was going down.

Jack walked over and tapped Dev on the shoulder.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?"

Dev and Kaylie both snapped their heads up and stared at him.

"What man? You mean Janet?"

"Yes. She shouldn't be working in a place like this."

Devlin looked baffled.

"Why not? The girl needs a job. Her parents are being real hard on her since she dropped out."

Kaylie lifted her shoulders in a graceful shrug.

"They don't need anyone at Mae's right now unfortunately. It’s the mall or baby sitting.”

Jack didn't say anything. He just walked away to stand near the door that Janet had disappeared into.

He had an unsettled feeling in his gut. It took him a minute to figure out what it was.

He was angry at Dev for the first time in his life.

They were missing the point. This was not the place for a girl like her. She’d be on display constantly and someone would put his meat paws on her eventually.

It was only a matter of time.

Janet chose that moment to walk out of the storage room in the tightest orange shorts and the smallest top Jack had ever seen. It was cropped to show her flat midriff and way too small. He stared at her, his breath coming hard and fast.

The tank hugged her gorgeous tits, pushing them up and out until they practically spilled over the top. He felt the blood rushing to his groin as hot lust sliced through him.

And anger.

The whole place was hooting and hollering like animals at the sight of her. Janet smiled and cocked her shoulder at the crowd, preening. Didn’t she realize the danger she was in?

The crowd was like a pack of damn wolves.

And she was the lamb.

The girl was too damn gorgeous for her own good.

Jack had to stop himself from throwing his jacket over her. He was frozen in place, his eyes glued to her, feeling utterly enraged. A group of college guys at a nearby table started chanting.
