Confessions of a Bad Boy Cop
Page 7
I mull that over for a moment and as much as I do need to get laid, do want his hands on me, I know I can’t. Nothing good—other than a few amazing orgasms—could come from getting mixed up with a dangerous guy like Harding. I have a political career to think about—one that is important to me for many reasons—and I can’t do anything to jeopardize my reputation.
Harding moves with stealth and precision, a predator stalking its prey. Sara is shouting beside me, and cheering Harding on. All I can do is sit still, and count down the seconds until the round is over. These guys don’t even use gloves, for God’s sake. I can’t imagine what a mess Harding’s face is going to be when it’s over. The guy he’s fighting is huge, but before we came, Sara assured me Harding was going to win. I couldn’t stand to see him hurt, really.
I peek through my fingers to see Harding land a series of punches. His opponent falls to the ground, and Harding takes that opportunity to jump on top of him and land a few more hits until the ref drags him off. Harding lifts his hands, and the crowd goes wild.
“Did he just win?” I ask a screaming Sara.
“Yeah, total KO. What a warrior!”
“KO?”
“Knock-out. Jesus, girl, you really do need to get out more.”
My heart jumps into my throat. The fight is over, and that means I’m supposed to meet Harding, but I’m not going to. I grab my purse and I’m about to stand when Sara stops me.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
“Home.”
“Like hell.”
“Sara—”
“Look, it’s easy. Harding is an experienced guy. He’ll take you back to his room, give you some straight-up nasty sex, then you’ll get in your car and go home. It’s a simple as that, and you need this.”
As simple as that?
That doesn’t sound simple at all. It sounds cold and detached. Call me old fashioned, like my middle name Adeline, but what ever happened to the art of conversation over dinner, and a guy driving you home afterward? I guess it’s just not a part of the world Harding lives in.
Okay, decision made. No way. No way am I going to meet him back stage, and jump into bed with him.
I don’t think.
