Chapter 229
The shrill beep of his phone receiving a text was the spell breaker I needed to step away from him. I had plans for a long night but I'd been about ten seconds away from taking what I wanted here and now and fast.

"Drio's leaving Leo's place now." His gaze licked over me and he took a step back, noticing the suitcase for the first time. "Going somewhere?"

He insisted on driving, and though I'd never admit it, riding in the Shelby was a rush. The leather seats molded to my ass like they were custom made, the sound system was top-notch, and the car didn't so much drive as prowl. I rolled down the window, letting the sweet summer breeze tamp down my fevered need to a manageable simmer.
