“I’ve got you,” he growls quietly, stroking my back as I bury my face in his chest.

“I’ve got you, Brynn.”

His voice and his hands sooth me, and I cling to him as he picks me up and carries me inside, shutting the door behind us. He cradles me in his arms, saying nothing and asking no questions as he carries me into his study and sits on one of his comfy, wing-backed chairs. I cling to him, pushing my face back against his chest again and trying to collect myself as he strokes my back and one of my arms. He leans down, and when I feel him kiss the top of my head tenderly, my pulse quickens.

And slowly, the tears fade as the heat rises inside.

I’m still clutching him as I pull back to look up into his face.

“Brynn—”

“Here,” I whisper fiercely. “I want to stay here.”

He nods, his jaw tight and his eyes piercing into mine until I’m lost in them.

So lost, in fact, that with those eyes, the heat of him, and the way his big, strong arms are cradling me so tight and protectively, I lose myself entirely. It’s like the world falls away around us until it’s just him and I. And when I lean close, and when he growls and holds me tighter, I know I’m about to fall.

“Brynn—”

I close the gap between us, and when my lips sear hotly to his, I just explode as the kiss brings us crashing together.

Oh shit.

Colton

The fire roars through me as my lips sear to hers, and I groan as my hands slide over her hips to hold her tight to me, like she belongs right here on my lap, with her lips seared to mine.

She moans into me, and fuck if the savage inside of me doesn’t surge to meet that passion. I groan, kissing her harder, and deeper. Her mouth tastes like candy, her lips so fucking pillow soft and her tight little body grinding against me. My blood burns like diesel through my veins, my cock throbbing hard beneath her, and I’m about to just keep on kissing her until, well, forever, when a voice suddenly pipes inside of me.

She’s a fucking student.

I freeze, my heart racing.

The fuck am I doing?

This is fucked. This is very, very fucked, and suddenly, I’m pulling away, my face hard and my eyes blazing into hers. She meets my gaze, her cheeks burning, and her lips swollen from the kiss. And when she lets her tongue dart out to wet them, I groan.

“Brynn—”

“I’m so sorry!” she gushes, her eyes looking like they’re about to start crying again. “I—I don’t know what I…” She cringes, looking down, and something melts inside of me as I take a deep breath and reach up to touch her chin with one of my fingers.

“You’re scared.”

She swallows, nodding but not saying a word or looking at me.

“Brynn.”

“Principal Kane, I’m so, so fucking sorry I—”

“Just look at me, beautiful.”

She stiffens at my use of the word, but when she looks up at me, I can see the smile hiding in the blush on her face.

“What happened,” I say quietly, still holding her there on my lap. She frowns, looking down.

“They…” she swallows. “They came to talk to me.”

The fire roars inside of me, my jaw clenching tight as my arms flex.

“What?” I hiss through grinding teeth. “Where? Here?”

She nods. “They were waiting for me on campus after swim practice.”

I swear viciously, snarling as my eyes narrow. And I make a note to ream the fuck out of the campus security office about unknown people prowling our fucking campus after dark.

“The guys from the club?”

She nods, and I growl lowly. “What’d he say to you?”

“Just that…” she shivers. “I owe them a lot of money, Colton.”

“The hell you do,” I snarl. “Your father does.”

“Yeah, well,” she says softly, shaking her head.

“Well, you’re staying here.” I say without even a sliver of question behind it. “And we need to call the police, now.”

“No, we—”

“Brynn, we have—”

“Please, Principal Kane,” she says quietly, pleadingly, her hands moving to my shirt and gripping it tight. “Please. I know how messed up this is, but I’d never forgive myself if this led to my dad getting in deeper trouble than he already is.”

She smiles wryly.

“Look, I know it looks like he’s this—” she shakes her head. “Okay, he is a big scumbag, but he’s still my dad.”

I suck on my teeth, my brow furrowing. I don’t like it. Not one fucking bit. But I know it’s not my place to move on this. Not when she’s asking me like this. And so, against my better judgement, I nod.

“Fine,” I growl quietly. “But you’re staying here. No fucking questions.”

She smiles quietly, her eyes sparking as she nods.

“Okay,” she says quietly, and I can’t even try to stop the grin that spreads over my jaw.
