A Twisted Arrangement (Twisted Vows, #2)

“You said you’d let me live.” “Hmmm. Did I? I guess I lied.”

“He fucked with what’s mine.”

“What are you doing here?” “Is that any way to welcome someone who just did you a favor?”

My breath catches as his presence surrounds me, causing my body to hum even without his touch. I stare down at the buttons of his perfectly tailored crisp black shirt. “Look at me, Little Sparrow.”

“Don’t call me that.”

“Don’t look away from me when I’ve come to see you.”

“What do you want?”

“All handled. Your asshole ex won’t bother you again.”

“I’ve come to call in my payment.”

“What…what do you want?”

“Kiss me, Scarlet.”

I push them away, trying to find some semblance of clarity. “What?” I say breathily. “There’s no running away now, Little Sparrow.” His lips brush mine. “Kiss me.”

my desires from my past take over, and all rational thoughts leave me as I close the distance between us.

His mouth isn’t soft; it’s hard and demanding. Like he wants to own a part of me and show me...

I kiss him back, pulling him closer, losing all sanity as he pushes his knee between my thighs and de...

I pull away, instead sucking my bottom lip into his mouth and biting it. “This isn’t over.”

“Who?” “The client. He didn’t show.”

can feel Matthias step behind me into the doorway even before he says anything. “You must be looking for me.”

I should keep my hands to myself, but I’ve never been able to do what I’m supposed to, so I slide my hand onto the bare skin of her knee. She jolts, legs hitting the table, and glares at me, hand attempting to slap mine away.

A chuckle rumbles the back of my throat, and I lean in so only Scarlet can hear me. “I’m a bug now?” She stiffens, and I run my thumb back and forth until her body relaxes beneath my touch. That’s my girl.

My thumb skims her sensitive skin, and her breath hitches in her throat, goose bumps forming on the back of her neck and down her arms. Come on, Scarlet. Take what you want. She clamps her thighs closed and glares at me. “You’re going to get me fired.” “Unlikely.” My dick hardens almost painfully.

I let her go, knowing she won’t be free for long. Five days, Little Sparrow. Then you’re mine.

Did one of you assholes buy a law firm?

I bought Scarlet’s law firm.

Damn Matthias, you’re just like Damon.

I hope it’s not fucking contagious.

😂😂😂😂

“Fancy seeing you here.”

“Bash!”

“You look ravishing, Miss Laurent.” “You look all grown

“Does that mean you’ll hide away with me tonight?”

“You know I can’t stop him.”

“Right. I don’t want to die tonight.” “Why do people keep saying that?”

“Because it’s likely, and I want to live. I’m too pretty to die this young.”

“You’re being ridiculous.” “Am I though?

Matthias’s deep brown eyes take in mine as we move together through the steps. His scent fills my nose, a nostalgia coming with it as I breathe him in. Matthias slides his hand up my waist, a move that’s not a part of the dance, and heat floods to my core.

“I’m fine. Just thirsty.” “Let me get you a drink.” “I’m alright on my own. Besides, I think the girls will throw a mutiny if I keep you much longer.”

My fingers tap on my hip, mildly comforted by the hard steel under the fabric.

“What do you think you’re doing, Little Sparrow?” A shiver runs through me as his lips brush against the shell of my ear. Too close. He’s too close.

“None of your business.”

“Everything about you is my business.”

“Since when? Seriously, I thought you couldn’t stand me.”

I feel myself grow wet when he presses closer, and the hard ridge of his cock indents my stomach. “Does that feel like I can’t stand you?” “I don’t understand you.” Mortification seeps in at the slight tremor in my voice.

“You will.” He opens his mouth, his tongue hot on my skin as he makes his way up my jaw.

He grasps my chin, angling my face the way he wants it before capturing my mouth. The feelings he stoked within me the other

day come to life as if they never went out. He burns beneath my skin as his hands travel down my sides and slowly lift the hem of my skirt until he can grasp my bare ass.

“We can’t do this,” I breathe, leaving it up to him to stop. His fingers press against my entrance. “Tell me to stop.” I try to push the words out but can’t.

Matthias chuckles as he sinks two fingers into me, and I curl against him, burying my moan into his chest.
