“Holy shit, woman! What the fuck?”
Her legs did some twirly shit, and then she was on her feet, growling at me like a feral beast. Who the fuck was this woman?
“I’m not going back there,” she growled.
“Well, too fucking bad. You broke his cock and now you have to help him.”
“If I go back there, Knight will kill me.”
“You’re lucky I haven’t killed you yet,” I muttered.
“Yeah, like you could kill me,” she scoffed.
I crossed my arms over my chest and stared down the feral woman in front of me. “Seriously, why the fuck don’t you want to go back?”
“Because I may have rammed my car into Knight’s wife’s car to escape the property,” she muttered.
Jesus Fucking Christ. This woman had a death wish. “And he let you escape?”
“Well, he was a little more concerned with his wife than me at the moment. It was just a little fender bender. She was fine.”
I sighed, running my hand across my face. Obviously, the woman didn’t know that much about Knight. Or, maybe she did since she was so insistent on not going back.
“Alright, I won’t let Knight near you, but you have to come back with me. The poor guy has a woody that won’t go down. Hunter will need to know things that I just can’t help with.”
“And what happens when I help Hunter? Will you let me go?”
“Sure,” I muttered, even though I had no intention of letting this woman go. She had just beaten the crap out of me. There had to be more to the story that I wasn’t aware of, and before I let her go, I was going to find out what it was.
“That didn’t sound very convincing,” she said, refusing to move toward the truck.
“Yeah, well, you just gave me a bloody nose. Sorry if I’m not as chipper as you’d like. Just get in the fucking truck.”
She glared at me, but walked toward the truck and scooted inside. “Can you release my arms?”
“Not until we get back to Reed Security. I can’t risk you running me off the road.”
She snorted in laughter, “Yeah, because I would really need my arms for that.”
I slammed her door and walked over to Lindsey, pulling her into my arms roughly. “Next time you’re hiding someone, make sure the woman is nothing like that,” I said, jerking my thumb back toward the truck.
“What’s wrong, John?” she asked, her eyes twinkling, “Can’t handle a strong woman?”
“Princess,” I growled. “When I get home, I’m gonna accidentally fuck you into the floor.”
“Promises, promises,” she grinned before walking back into her bed and breakfast.
I shook my head and got back into the truck. I was quiet the whole ride to Reed Security. This was fucking ridiculous. I didn’t know how I was going to keep her away from Knight. What the hell had she been thinking? And how was she wrapped up in Parker’s shit? Why was Parker even in town? I was out of town on a job for three days. How had I missed so much?
I pulled through the gates and opened the door for Blake, then pulled the not-so-limp dick out of the back of my truck. I sighed as I headed for the elevator. This was going to be a fucking circus. I couldn’t get my hand scanned and do all the other security protocols with him in my arms. There was just no way to do it.
“Alright, I’m gonna cut your-”
She snapped her arms out behind her back and broke the zip ties, completely jumping ahead of what I was going to do. I stared at her in awe. This woman was kind of a badass. She smirked at me and motioned for me to hand Parker over. I set him down between the two of us and she slipped her arm under one of his arms to prop him up, while I did the same on the other side. I scanned my hand, my eyes, and punched in the code, then waited as the elevator ascended. The doors opened and there stood fucking Gabe. Fuck, it could have been any of the other guys, but no, it had to be the pervert of the group. His eyes dropped to Parker’s massive dick and then flicked up to meet my eyes.
“Uh…”
There was nothing to say. There was no explaining this. I knew that anything I said right now would only get me into trouble. “Help me get him to Hunter.”
He took a step back. “I don’t think so.”
“Really? I would think this would be right up your alley.”
He snorted and shook his head. “Not really. I like watching fucking. I do not like being near another guy’s dick.”
“Well, neither do I, but here I am. Grab his other arm.”
He shook his head. “You’ve got the woman. I’m good.”
“You’re a prick, you know that?” I said as I stepped out of the elevator.
“I’m good with that. As long as I’m not walking next to the prick.”
I rolled my eyes and headed for Hunter’s medic room. I was hoping to slip in unnoticed, but unfortunately, the medic room was close to the training center, and the chances of slipping in unannounced were highly unlikely. I rounded the corner and almost made it inside when Jackson and Chance walked through the doors of the training center.
“Fuck,” I muttered under my breath. They
