Clearly, he wasn’t okay. Frustration poured from his eyes, his lips were slit in a thin line, and his muscles were ticking in his jaw.
An angry Hawk was a very, very sexy Hawk.
“I’ll look into it,” Tucker said. “Thanks for letting me know. Glad you had your Kevlar.”
As they ventured into the parking lot, Hawk bit out, “Our body armor won’t do jack if we’d been hit in the head.”
He was seething with frustration, and she knew exactly what she wanted to do about that. Her body ached for his, she had to touch him. Had to feel that connection. So, she stroked his back as he walked her to her car.
“I love your touch,” he murmured.
At her SUV, she opened the liftgate, set down her bag.
“I appreciate that Tucker is so chill, but for fuck’s sake, if that was my business, I’d throw on the spot lights and hunt that asshole down,” he growled.
Addison stepped close. “You’re so angry.” She leaned up. “I find that so damn sexy.”
They were on each other, the incendiary kiss sending hit after hit of adrenaline flying through her. She slipped her fingers into his hair and fisted handfuls while his growls turned her wet with need.
With one hand around her waist, he palmed her ass with the other. “Fuck, you feel good. I can’t wait to give you what you need.”
“I need naughty Nicky,” she said between kisses. “Naughty, naughty Nicky.”
His lips curved as he slowed the kiss. “I’m gonna give it to you so good, babe. Make you purr like a kitten.”
“Ohgod.” She sucked down a breath. “I gotta go or I’m gonna be dry humping you in the parking lot.”
He cradled her chin, dropped another searing kiss on her mouth. “We can do a lot better than dry humping.”
Desire thrummed through her. Pausing, she stared into his eyes. “Mmm.” Then, she shut the back hatch. “I’ll meet you at the club.”
“I’ll follow you back to your place. We can drive there together.”
As much as she craved his company, she needed her car, so she could sneak out and meet Melinda.
Hawk’s phone rang. “Now what?” He checked. “It’s my mom. I’ll call her back.”
“Talk to her.” Addison opened the driver’s side door and climbed in. “I’ll see you at the club.”
She shut the door, started the engine, and backed out of the spot. With a little wave, she drove away.
In a few hours, naughty Nicky’s gonna be all mine… and I can’t wait.

“Hey Mom,” Hawk answered.
“Granddad had a little mishap. He was climbing down the ladder—”
“What the hell was he doing on a ladder?”
“And he fell. He’s at the hospital, and I’m headed there now with Dad. They’re running tests to see if he’s got a concussion, and his hip is hurting.”
“For fuck’s sake,” Hawk bit out.
“Nicky, what’s that all about?”
“I’m stretched a little thin and I’m already spending time at the farm helping them out. I don’t have time to—”
