#1
A
tall, muscular bouncer covered in tattoos, with inky black hair that looked a
little too shaggy, a strong jawline, and the palest blue eyes Karma had ever
seen gave them a once-over. He exuded self-confidence, masculinity, and
perhaps a hint of danger.
“IDs.”
His voice was deep and sent a shiver down her spine. She had a feeling he would
never be caught in a situation he could not control. She envied him for
that.
With
a quick cursory glance at the front and back he handed them back. “Have fun,”
he grunted.
“You
too,” Karma said. She forced a smile and grabbed her ID from his huge hand. She
was surprised to realize her fingers were trembling.
“Would
it kill him to smile? Why do jerks have to be so freaking hot?” Karma mumbled
as she walked away.
“Heard
that,” the bouncer said in a deep, smooth voice.
Eva
nudged her with her elbow, her eyes wide.
Karma
shrugged and turned back, waving while flashing him a smile before they pushed
through the large double doors. He really should lighten up.
Why
was he stopping? Her stomach clenched. She
tried to still her frantically beating heart. Her mind screamed, don’t stop. Please don’t stop. She needed this
experience. She wanted it with every ounce of her being.
“Don’t
stop.” She hated the pleading she heard in her own voice.
“Karma,”
he said as he closed his eyes and leaned back on his knees. “Tell me you didn’t
go to a club to pick up a guy for your first time? What the hell…” He ran his
hands over his face.
Karma
was shocked by his reaction. “You sound like my father.”
Jax
pulled away as if he’d been bitten by a snake. The look on his face was of
total disbelief. Gone was the look of lust in his eyes. No. No. No. They were so close. Why
did she have to say anything? She hadn’t meant to, it just came out like word
vomit.
“You’re
really a virgin?” He ran his hand through his inky black hair.
“Yes!
I’m a virgin. Everyone has to lose it at some point.”
“My
mother would kill me if I took a girl’s virginity on a one-night stand.”
“Why
are we talking about our parents right now? We were about to have sex.”

“It
blows my mind you can look like you do and not see it for yourself.”
Her
throat tightened. Why did he keep saying things like this? Couldn’t he just
drop it? “Please, stop.”
He
stepped closer and dropped his hand to the swell of her hips. “I love your hips
and the way they fit perfectly in my hands, your nose gives you character, your
thighs… Jesus, I can’t even think about them without getting a hard-on, and your
eyes make my heart race like a schoolboy with his first crush.”
Karma
stood on her tippy toes and went in for a kiss, but Jax pulled back, laughing.
“You’re not getting out of it that easily. We’re crossing another one off your
list.” He pulled her down the stairs into the pouring rain.
“You’re
crazy, Jax!” She laughed, tilting her head up and spinning in the rain like a
five-year-old. When she came to a stop she looked up and Jax was staring at her
so intently it took her breath away.
He
yanked her toward him, and his hands slid down her back to the curve of her
waist. His legs widened as he pulled her closer, and she could feel the hard
ridge of need through his pants. “You’ve been driving me crazy all evening,” he
said roughly.
Wild
desire tore through her body as the rain pelted down on them. Jax bent his head
and his lips covered hers. A moan of pleasure escaped as her hands slid up and
gripped his shoulders. The response to his body was overwhelming. She was
trembling and it had nothing to do with the cool rain.
Jax pulled her tighter, as
though he never wanted to let her go. One of his hands released and cupped her
breast, his thumb caressing her rigid nipple. A shot of desire ignited between
her legs and her breathing became ragged. The burning pleasure was instant and
spread throughout her. Her body was ready for him, moist, warm, and drunk
on desire.
Ciao, Andrea. Scusa la mia ignoranza in inglese...
