Enjoy this quick sneak peek from Fire Devil.
Her doorbell chimed followed by a pounding, seconds later on the wood. “Christ, Carter. One day and you feel like you have the right to show up at my place whenever you like.” Gina rose from her chair and padded to the door. Unhooking the safety chain, she yanked the door open. “What the fuck are you doing here?”
Carter stared back at her, his gray eyes creating heat in places it didn’t need to be.
“Do you ever check to see who is on the other side? Or ask who it is?”
“No need. Only one ass would come to my place at this hour in the morning.”
His gaze narrowed on her face and he stepped toward her.
She held her ground, refusing to give an inch. “Can I help you with something?”
“We need to talk.”
“No, we don’t.”
“I told you we did, right before you raced away.”
Suddenly, the mug she had wasn’t nearly enough. Stepping back, she waved him in, then slammed the door behind him.
Carter strode in, took three steps then pivoted back to face her. He took a leisurely perusal of her attire.
Beneath his intense stare, her nipples pebbled, drawing tight. Her core clenched and she struggled not to give into the lust slamming into her. “Yes?”
“How long have you been back in town?” His nostrils flared as his gaze deepened.
“Does it really matter, Carter? I mean in the grand scheme of things, does it? You divorced me. You didn’t want me as part of your life any longer. What the hell gives you the right to come to my place, especially at this time of night to demand how long I’ve been back? My life and what I do with it, isn’t any of your fucking concern.”
“You’re entitled to your opinion.”
“You think you have a right?” She glanced around, grateful nothing was within reach for her to chuck at his head.
“Do you know why I gave you the papers?”
I can’t believe he wants to talk about this. “I didn’t ask then, why do you think I give a damn why now?” So what, if I was curious as to why you didn’t think I was good enough to be Mrs. Liaci. “I figured it was something to do with you and your whore.”
A muscle flexed in his jaw. “Rochelle is just a friend.”
“So is Davidson.”
He raked a hand through his hair and the play of muscle in his biceps mesmerized her. Her heart thudded in her chest and she struggled to appear calm and in control. Therapy had helped. Learning martial arts had helped more.
“This isn’t about a man you know isn’t right for you, but about us.”
“I didn’t think it was possible but now I have to say, I’m floored. I honestly didn’t think you could be more arrogant than you used to be. Consider me schooled. Your arrogance is unending. Newsflash, Carter Liaci…The world doesn’t revolve around you. You’re not the center of the universe. People have lives. We actually manage to live and function without the great and powerful Liaci, ass that you are, in our daily business.”
“You’re being unreasonable.”
Gina bit the inside of her cheek hard enough she drew blood. “Last time you said that…you served me with divorce papers. Since no papers need to be delivered, how about you take your swelled belief of importance and get out of my puny life.”
He had her in his arms in the blink of an eye. Strong fingers gripped her upper arms as he lowered his face to hers. “I’ve never forgotten you, Gina,” he muttered, the breath from his words fanning over her lips.
The devil dangled temptation before her, that lure of unending pleasure, the touch that ran over her like chocolate silk along her skin. His rich taste she’d never been able to forget, no matter how many years passed her by. All she had to do was lean forward and touch her lips to his.
Then you go back into the same cycle you were in before? Where he doubts you, and thinks he is the ruler in the relationship?
Her thoughts while a splash of cold water, couldn’t quite pull her from the enticement this man still held over her. She swayed closer, her lips less than a hairsbreadth from his. “Get out.”
The heat in his eyes morphed to a challenge as he slowly backed away from her, never once releasing her gaze. “This is far from over.” Carter touched his lips before wheeling around and vanishing through her front door.
Her legs collapsed beneath her, taking her to the floor in an ungraceful flop. She shook as her emotions warred with one another. Some yelling for her to go after him, others for her to never see him again. Through it all, however, was the pulse he lit to her blood. During their marriage and prior, he had gotten so deep under her skin, she inhaled and swore it was his heartbeat, his lungs within her.
Seems things hadn’t changed.
Gina touched her face, frowning when her fingertips came away wet with tears. How the hell was she going to survive this?
