Tuesday Teaser - Adam's POV
My eyes suddenly find the reason for my discord and the disturbance in the air. Sebastian Blake. Those piercing, hazel-brown eyes are locked on mine and he’s advancing toward me in long, angry strides. His jaw is clenched tighter than I’ve ever seen before and his posture screams, “Do. Not. Fuck. With. Me.”
I pull free from Knox’s hold and stand there spellbound, as I watch the man of my dreams make his way to me. I shiver at the anger I sense in him from half a room away. I’m not sure why he’s here, or why I’m even glad to see him, but my body comes alive at the sight of him.
“Who’s that,” Knox asks. He places a comforting hand on my back. “Is he the one you’re trying to get over?” I can’t speak. I’m not sure I’ve even taken a breath since I made eye contact with Sebastian. I can only nod. “Damn, baby,” Knox whispers huskily against my ear. “You sure know how to pick ‘em. He’s beautiful and so very angry at you.”
“I don’t know why,” I say barely above a whisper. “He doesn’t want me. He said so.”
“Baby, that’s not the look of a man who doesn’t want you. That’s a look of a man who doesn’t want to want you and there’s a big fucking difference.” Knox purrs behind me. “God, you are so lucky. What I wouldn’t give…”
I don’t feel lucky, especially once Sebastian is standing directly in front of me. I see so much fury in his eyes that it scares me. I automatically take a step back, which puts me flush against Knox’s chest. Knox wraps protective arms around me, which Sebastian mistakes as a sign of possessiveness.
“We’re leaving,” Sebastian says angrily, as he grabs my hand and forcefully pulls me out of Knox’s arms. Sebastian turns and walks away, pulling me behind him.
“Hey, wait.” Knox calls out and begins to follow us. “I didn’t hear Adam say he wants to leave with you, dickhead.” I hear genuine concern for me in his voice. It amazes me that someone who’s known me for such a short time can genuinely care about my safety. “Adam, do you want to leave with this maniac?”
Sebastian stops suddenly and pivots around. “Fuck off. He’s mine,” he growls at Knox.
I’m his?
