#PreOrderNow
“Going somewhere, princess?”
No. How was he here?
“Leave me alone,” I hissed, tugging at Jay’s arm. Where had he come from? He’d just been fighting Kane.
“I don’t think you want me to, do you?” he purred, low, right against my ear, and I…I stopped struggling. He hummed, his lips skimming over my lobe. “Thought so.”
“What the fuck are you doing?” My words were angry, and I was angry—with myself. I didn’t want to like the feel of him against me, to wish that instead of the bare brushes of his mouth on my skin, he was kissing me until I lost my breath.
He exhaled sharply. “I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing. You’re going to be an engaged woman tomorrow, and I can’t—” Cutting himself off, he dipped his head, his fingers curling around my hood to pull it back so he could press his lips against my throat.
“Can’t what?” I whispered.
“Do this.” He pressed another kiss against my skin. His hand slid under my hoodie, with just the thin fabric of my T-shirt providing a barrier between the warmth of his palm and my stomach.
“W-why do you even want to do this? You hate me. I hate you.” The words tasted bitter on my tongue, my body betraying me as I pressed into his touch. “I’m promised to Anton.”
Withdrawing his hand from my hoodie, he covered my mouth. “Don’t speak his name. Just pretend. Pretend we don’t hate each other.”
