~EXCERPT~
We were at a stop light just blocks away from the club when Cole murmured, “Chinese fire drill.” And then a devilish plan jumped into action.
Nico, being ever so collected and cool, took the driver’s seat and continued on driving once the light turned green. The other one had opened the door of the back and bent himself inside the small space. Instead of buckling himself up, Cole got on all fours above my body, forcing me to press myself into the door.

Something wet ran across the protruding bone at the base of my neck and I jolted from the strange sensation. And then I realized it was his tongue when he placed little nips all over the bone and then traveled up to my ear.
“S-stop…”
He chuckled darkly, “You don’t want me to.”
But I did. So why couldn’t I say so?
