Very small because Roni has the majority of my attention as she saunters toward me. I clench my fists as I take in her thick thighs that are revealed by her too short jean shorts.
She has a thigh holster on her right leg and black boots that stop at her lower calf on her feet. Lara Croft has nothing on Roni. The closer she gets, the more drawn I am to her.
When she reaches me, she pulls that lollipop from her lips, the purple coloring stains her mouth. “Hey, boss,” she bites out, her lips pinching. “Just so you know this is my two weeks’ notice. I’ll never work for your ass.”
With that, she taps my lips with her sucker and pops the sweet treat back into her mouth. She narrows her eyes at me as she rolls the pop with her tongue. Yeah, my girl is playing with some serious fire.
“Roni—”
She holds her hand up. “I ain’t got shit to say to you.”
As soon as the words are out of her mouth, she turns to follow Val and Uri into the facility’s gym. I just about swallow my tongue when her back is to me. And it’s not because of the shorts riding the crack of her big ass.
Her shirt is backless, tying at the neck and waist only. On full display is what looks like fresh ink. Her entire back is covered in the design. I’m seeing red so I can’t think clearly enough to focus on making the tat out.
From this angle I can see the sides of her full perky tits that her shirt is doing fuck all to cover. This shit has my blood boiling and I’m ready to spank Roni’s ass. Yeah, I’m over this.
I storm toward her and scoop her up over my shoulder without breaking a stride. She kicks and screams, but I ignore her, thinking of the most private place I can take her that’s not too far away.
The armory comes to mind. I was in there not too long ago with Uri, checking on the Briggs’s supply. Pulling the temporary staff card Thomas Briggs gave me and my brothers from my back pocket, I swipe it to gain entry.
“John, if you don’t put me down,” Roni growls.
I slap her ass, earning a punch to my ribs. I chuckle as it burns a little, but that doesn’t stop me from slapping her ass again. This time I turn my head to lick the sting away.
Her gasp brings a smile to my lips. “If I drop you, it’ll be your fault.”
“If you put me down you won’t drop me,” she snaps.
Ignoring her protest, I move to one of the back cages. As soon as I step inside, the lights come up, illuminating all of the weapons and shelves with backlighting. I drop Roni on the island-like tabletop in the center of the cage, stepping between her legs before she can fight me. I grasp her face and crush her sexy mouth with my lips.
Taking my time, I suck and nip at her lips a few times before she starts to respond. Not wanting to disturb her tat as I see it’s very fresh, I reach down to pop the button on her shorts and shove my hands into the back of them, palming her lush ass. Dragging her heat closer to the edge of the counter, I start to grind my erection into her. She whimpers into my mouth.
“I’ve missed you so much,” I breathe against her lips.
The words must be like ice water to her. She breaks the kiss and starts to push at my chest. I try to seal our lips together once again, but she grabs me by the throat.
I narrow my eyes at her as she glares back at me. “Back off,” she hisses.
I take a step back, folding my arms over my chest. She doesn’t release her hold, but I’m okay with that. I lick my lips taking in the flavor from the grape sucker that got lost somewhere in our trip here.
“You have a lot of damn nerve. You come here and cost me my job. Then insist I come work for you. You have to be shitting me,” she says with so much heat, her nostrils flare. “And please tell me what the hell makes you think I’ll leave Torque behind?”
I step all the way back out of her hold. “This was the plan wasn’t it? And I don’t expect you to leave him behind.
