Chapter One
“Don’t touch me.” I pushed Tyler away from me as hard as I could. He stepped back and stared down at me with a twinkle in his eyes.
“Such a strong push for a girl so...” His voice trailed off and I stared into his eyes searching for some sort of glimmer. All I wanted from him was the truth about Grant.
“Why won’t Grant let me leave?”
“Why do you want to leave?” He stared at me disdainfully. “Didn’t you enjoy his lovemaking?”
“You’re so rude.” I shook my head, my face afire with embarrassment. Was he calling me out for sleeping with Grant? “It’s none of your business.”
“I didn’t say it was.” He shrugged. “I should leave.”
“Where are you going?” My voice dropped. I didn’t want him to leave me by myself.
“Out.”
“Out? Now ?” I grabbed a hold of him. “Take me with you.”
“You want to run away from Grant?” He paused and leaned in towards me, his tongue trailing down my cheek for a few seconds. “Or do you just want to be with me?”
“What are you talking about?” I gasped and stepped back, my cheek hot with fire from his touch. “I just want to go home.”
“Do you know the story of Little Red Riding Hood?” He asked softly, his eyes intense on me.
“Doesn’t everyone?” I rolled my eyes and shivered.
“What was the lesson you learned from Little Red Riding Hood?”
“I don’t know. Don’t trust people pretending to be your grandma with hairy faces?” I tried to crack a joke to lighten the mood, but he didn’t crack a smile.
“No, the lesson to be learned is that Little Red Riding Hood should have been smarter before she even reached the house. She should have realized that anything could have been waiting for her.”
“But she got the better of the wolf.” I licked my lips. “She wasn’t to know that the wolf was a psycho.”
“What wolf is not?” He stared at me for a few seconds and I could see him studying my face carefully. “Why did you come back here with him?”
“You don’t want to know.” I bit my lower lip, feeling ashamed.
“I do.” He stared at the rumpled sheets and then back at me. “I very much want to know.”
“What’s going on?” Grant opened the door and walked into the room, looking at Tyler and me with narrowed eyes.
“We were just talking.” Tyler said smoothly. “Do you have a problem with that?”
“Why would I have a problem with that?” Grant looked annoyed and stared at Tyler, who was staring back at him defiantly. I stared at the two men in front of me and swallowed hard. There was Grant looking so handsome and virile. His dark hair shadowed his face and his eyes were intense and possessive as he gazed at me. Then I looked at Tyler, so strong and buff. His blue eyes, light, as they gazed at me with questions. I shivered as I stared at his arms, so strong and muscular. Tyler licked his lips slowly and grinned, a devilish, captivating and spine-chilling grin.
“So Evie.” He said softly as he took a step towards me. “What do you say?”
“Say to what?” My heart beat faster as he looked me over from head to toe. What was he asking me? What was going on here? Was this some sick sort of game?
“What do you say to the big bad wolves that are both ready to eat you up?” He whispered into my ear.
“What?” My jaw dropped as I stared at him. Was he saying what I thought he was saying?
“Are you ready to be breakfast?” His husky tone dropped and I felt his hand on my lower back. “Or would you rather be lunch?”
“What?” I repeated, my stomach churning. Was he propositioning me for a threesome?
“Nothing.” He laughed and looked back at Grant. “The call go okay?”
“Yes.” Grant nodded and his eyes narrowed. “Anything else?”
“No, that was it.” Tyler smiled and walked out of the room. I stood there staring at the door wondering about our exchange. Grant and I stood there in silence and when I finally looked at him, he
