Exposed (MAC Security 2) - Page 4
“That isn’t what the law says, baby.” Shaking my head, I searched the room, not being able to spot Kay anywhere.
Dammit! I shouldn’t have taken my eyes off her.
“She left,” Daley murmured.
“Fuck!” Running my hands through my hair, I tried to listen on the ear piece, but with the thumping of my heart, I couldn’t hear a damn thing.
“You don’t want to go home with that mousey girl,” Serena sneered, coming up behind me.
My nostrils flared as I turned back to face her. Taking two big steps I got as close as I could without physically touching her. “You listen, and you listen fuckin’ good,” clenching my fists, I backed away a step. “You stay the fuck away from her, and me.”
She opened her mouth to reply but I didn’t bother waiting around for anything else that she had to say. Instead, I pushed through the
growing crowd and headed straight out the door. Taking the stairs two at a time, I scanned the area for Kay, it’s not like I could miss her in that dress.
That beautiful dress that showed all of her curves and soft skin.
“She went that way,” one of the valet guys said pointing to the green. Nodding my head in thanks, I jogged in the direction that he pointed.
She shouldn’t be out here alone, not when we still haven’t found that dickweed. Ripping the ear piece out, I shoved it in the pocket of my pants and pulled my shirt out as I went.
My breaths came faster the longer I looked for her, I had to find her. My head swiveled all around, searching for her. I squinted at something in the distance, spotting two shadows, I moved towards them.
Two bodies came into view; I knew it was her straight away from the way my heart started to pound in my chest. I walked faster, not being able to see who she was stood with.
“Let’s get you home and to bed, yeah?” I heard Luke say to her. I breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was only him. Then it registered what he had said.
“Yeah,” her soft voice answered him.
Coming to a stop, I tried to hold my temper in. He held her in his arms, the same way that I held her. His hand woven through her soft hair. Then she smiled at him, one of those soft smiles that she does so often. I could never get enough of that smile. But I hated seeing it aimed at him and not me.
“You better take your Motherfuckin’ hands of her!” My hands were clenched at my sides, partly to stop myself from hurting him, but also to stop me from grabbing her away from him.
I was constantly thinking about the way that I touched her, there were times when all I wanted to do was throw her over my shoulder and lock us in my room. But I had to keep reminding myself that she was fragile, that I had to take my time, be patient.
I watched as she turned into Luke, her soft voice telling him that she wanted to go. That killed me even more, I should have been the one that she turned to like that. Not him.
I held my hand out as she walked past, letting my walls slide down so she could see the truth. I only ever did that with her, no one else got to see me unguarded.
But for her, I would do anything. From the moment she stepped foot into my office, I knew that she was mine and that my life would never be the same again.
For a second, when she stopped, I thought she’d come over to me. But her eyes moved down to my neck, I saw the hurt in her eyes for a moment, then she put those shields back up and walked off, leaving Luke behind.
“Give her some time,” he murmured.
“Fuck.” I scrubbed my hands down my face, not wanting to let her walk away but knowing that I needed to. For now.
“You watch over her, Luke,” I scowled at him.
“I will, boss.”
Tilting my head to her, he took that as his queue to leave.
She may have thought this was the end but it was only just the beginning.
Kitty was sat at the entrance of the country club by the time I’d made it back there. Pulling the door open, I grabbed onto the handle to pull myself up into the van, not saying a word to her as I shuffled over to the middle seat.
“Kay-” she mumbled, her voice unsure whether she should say something or not.
