My tongue stuck to the roof of my mouth, and for a second I forgot why I was here.

“What are you doing here?”

The beast surged forward with a growl, and I remembered myself. Putting on my most winning smile, I stepped past her and said, “Thought I would grab a quick shower.”

“What? You can’t just let yourself in here,” she spluttered.

She closed the front door despite her objections, following me into the bedroom and watching as I peeled the shirt over my head.

“What do you think you’re doing?”

I smirked, leaning into the shower to turn it on. Each word was emphasized as I repeated, “Taking a shower.”

“Do you invade the privacy of all your rental guests, or am I special?”

You’re special.

I slid my hands into the waistband of my shorts instead of answering. They came down slowly, Tara’s eyes following them past my hips. When she got to my cock, she forgot about the shorts, staring at me with wide eyes and licking her lips.

I stepped into the shower, turning my back to her and letting the hot water soak my hair. “Aren’t you getting in?”

Tara’s lips parted, and I watched from the corner of my eye as she grumbled about my audacity. She wasn’t ready to admit to herself that she liked it.

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re an incorrigible asshole?” She asked, even as she shimmied out of her leggings.

“Not with those exact words, no.”

“You are so full of yourself. You think having one hot night together—"

“Two.”

“Twohot nights together gives you permission to just let yourself in here?” Her sweater went flying across the bathroom, followed by her bra.

I swallowed dryly as she stepped into the shower beside me, pushing me none too gently out of the spray and letting the hot water splash over her breasts.

“You could always kick me out.” I couldn’t fully keep the snarl from my lips.

“Where would the fun be in that?”

This was such a dangerous game to play.

Right now, it was only physical. A challenge that I had no choice but to accept.

What if it got worse, and the beast decided to show her exactly how fiercely he guarded his territory?

Inside my chest, he clawed for his freedom, already enjoying the idea too much for my liking.

I lost focus on that thought, and almost lost my hold on him completely as Tara dropped to her knees on the wet tile and sucked me into her mouth. She pulled back, glaring up at me with burning blue eyes, and hissed, “Asshole.”

I groaned, my soul almost leaving my body as she sucked harder, pulling me into the back of her throat. My head fell back against the wall of the shower, my vision blurring like I was drunk.

I remembered myself quickly, threading fingers in her hair and giving a testing thrust. “Is that where you want it this time?”

Tara squeezed my balls, hard enough that I almost winced. Her pace increased, head bobbing back and forth, swallowing as much of me as she could.

I had the insane urge to keep goading her. To see how far I could take it before she was well and truly angry.

I wanted her to hate me.
