Synopsis: Levi Black is an s.o.b.
Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he’s a pretentious, obnoxious, womanizing jacka** who thinks the world revolves around him.
He wouldn’t be wrong.
A famous soccer player, his skills on and off the field have won him medals, trophies, women, and the cover of every heartthrob magazine in the country. He’s broken nearly every bone in his body and a few hearts along the way, including mine—his stepsister—and lived to tell about it.
One night changed everything, and I’ve avoided him like the plague ever since. Just long enough to finish college, to bury the hurt, and to outrun the memories. But now that’s all changed. I’m back, and there’s no more running.
My hands are supposed to be my livelihood, but now they’re my curse. Levi’s reckless ways have landed him in a sticky situation, and his father has given me an offer I can’t refuse. One month, and all I have to do is put my hands on his body. Easier said than done. The problem is, even though I know it’s bound to bite me in the a**, I can’t bring myself to say no to the s.o.b.
“What the hell are you doing in here? Get out!”
Levi is leaning in my open doorway—a door I know I closed when I
went to bed last night. Or tried to. It took hours, listening to him and his
“friends” laughing and making all kinds of racket, before I finally managed to
fall asleep.
Now, he’s standing in my bedroom, half naked, and looking at me
like I’m something he wants to kill. Or eat.
My thighs clench at the thought of Levi putting his mouth on me.
The last time—no. I shut the thought
down before it has a chance to go too far. It’s inappropriate. This whole
situation right now is inappropriate.
“Get out!” I shout again,
because he just continues to stand there, completely stoic. Unreadable. “Are
you high?” Along with the rest of the world, I’ve witnessed the kind of life he
leads: late nights, partying, an endless supply of women. The possibility that
he’s actually high right now isn’t that far-fetched.
Why does he have to look so damn good, though?
Levi’s shirtless chest moves in a silent huff and a humorless smirk
makes his lips twitch. And that damn beard. It’s distracting. I’ve only ever
seen him clean shaven, but this look is even better. He looks rough. Dirty.
Mountable.
Lifting his arm to his head, he rakes his fingers through his hair,
making it messier than it already was. The action makes his bicep flex, showing
off a massive bump, and creates a long visual line that draws my gaze down over
his sculpted chest and abs to the pair of sweat pants that hang so low, I can
see damn near everything.
As my eyes land between his legs, it begins to grow. My throat turns into a desert and I swallow,
tearing my eyes away as I cast the inappropriate thoughts the vision inspires
away. Or at least I try to. They keep sling shooting back, taunting me. Just look at it. One little peek.
No!
It should be illegal to walk around like that. In fact, he should
be thrown in jail for assault. I’ll never get the vision of him like this out
of my head.
I hear Levi’s soft chuckle and jerk to attention.
“You should see your face right now,” he says, his voice mocking.
“You behave like you’ve never seen my dick before, which we both know isn’t
true. Or,” he says, his voice pitching low as he pushes off the jamb and stands
tall, putting that hard bulge on full display, “maybe you just want another
taste.”
Yes, please. The heat in my face deepens. I do want it. I won’t deny that, but
I refuse to let him drag me any deeper into the rabbit hole or humiliate me
over something we both know we want but can’t have.
