wearing a tank top and those pajama bottoms that clung to her curves. She looked soft and sleepy and infinitely fuckable. Also confused. “Why is everyone here?”
“Why didn’t you tell me someone slashed your tires last night?” Kai shot back.
“Damn it,” Case said. “Ian’s going to win. He took the ‘within twenty-four hours’ slot.”
Kai shot Case his middle finger as he prowled down the hall toward Kori. “We need to have a serious talk.”
She backed up, her eyes steady on his face. “We do?”
“Your room. Now.”
She scurried back. At least one person was willing to obey him.
* * * *
Kori ran back to her room and gave serious consideration to locking the door behind her. She could live here now. Sarah could stuff protein bars under the door and she could live off tap water. This could be her home for many years. As long as it took for that wicked look to get out of Kai’s eyes.
Or he would find a way inside anyway and then her ass was grass because that man looked serious.
She should have told him about the tires. She’d made that promise a long time ago. In her attempts to avoid him the previous evening she’d decided that calling and telling him her car had been viciously attacked was counterproductive to the whole point of avoiding him. Now with a night’s wisdom behind her, she could see that it might have been a mistake.
Locking him out of her room would probably be another mistake.
She turned on him. Maybe she could get out of this. “Hey, you know in all the craziness of last night I totally forgot to mention that my tires got messed up. Maybe that was a manufacturer defect or something. It’s hard to tell in the dark.”
He stood in the doorway to her bedroom. Past him, she could still hear a lot of talking since it seemed her normally quiet house had been invaded. It didn’t matter. They could talk all they liked because all Kori could see or really hear was Kai. “Are you certain that’s the tactic you want to take with me?”
“Nope. I’m not certain at all.” She wasn’t certain of anything. When she’d woken and realized he wasn’t still in bed with her, she’d been disappointed. She’d reached out and his side of the bed had been cold, and for a second she’d felt tears cloud her eyes. Then she’d decided it was a good thing. He’d done what she wanted him to do. He’d snuck out and avoided all the embarrassing morning after stuff. Except he hadn’t. Apparently he’d invited friends over to witness the embarrassing morning after stuff. “What are you still doing here?”
He crossed his arms over his chest. “What am I still doing here? I was making you and your friends some breakfast. I was attempting to be a good…houseguest.”
She was almost certain houseguest wasn’t what he’d meant to say. What other words would he have used? Boyfriend? Dom? Master? Every single one of them got her heart racing. Was she thinking of trying with Kai? Could her heart handle that? “How did everyone else get here?”
“My brother seems to be stalking me and Case came over because he was worried about you. Apparently he knew about someone vandalizing your car.”
That was news to her. “He did? I didn’t tell him.”
“Who did you tell?” The question came out with an edge of irritation.
“Sarah and Mia. I decided to wait until this morning to call someone because it was late last night.” And I’d been trying to avoid you only to end up having the best sleep of my life because I was wrapped around you. Yeah, she wasn’t going to say that.
“How about the police? Were you going to call them? If you’re going to make an insurance claim, you’ll need a police report. Or are you going to claim that your tires died of natural causes?”
She held her hands up, attempting to placate him. Why did her room seem so much smaller when he was in it? It was a good-sized room, but Kai took up all the space. “You’re right. I should have called last night, but I was tired and I wanted to get home and get in bed.”
His gorgeous eyes narrowed. “You weren’t in bed. You were sitting up with your friends drinking wine. Try again.”
“Kai, what’s going on here? It’s a couple of tires.”
“You were supposed to call me if you got in trouble.”
“I wasn’t really in…” What was
