CREAM (On the Hunt) Read Online Free Page A

crap was for the head families. Enforcers went where the money was. A few enforcers tried to stake claim on an area but they spent more time fighting with other enforcers than bringing in bounties. Teaghan and the rest of the majority believed in the snooze-and-lose way of doing things.
    Jeliyah sighed in her sleep and then spoke soundless words. Her lips brushed his neck in light caresses that made Teaghan’s dick jump to attention. He stumbled at the instant reaction but regained his footing before he hit a tree.
    Less than a day with this woman and she already had him reacting to her briefest touch. That made up Teaghan’s mind. Jeliyah was going to be in his bed sooner rather than later. He just had to convince her of that fact…and get her to ditch the necromes.
    The tingling had lessened since she started speaking. Whatever she dreamed about, she must feel safe. He hoped it stayed that way, at least while he was holding her. The last thing he needed was her activating these stupid things because of a nightmare. He’d been on the wrong end of a necrome before, back in his rebellious days. He didn’t feel like repeating the experience.
    The car came in sight and he slowed his speed. On the passenger side, he shuffled Jeliyah’s weight to one arm so he could grab her duffel bag and toss it out of the way. He lowered her to the seat and then fastened her seat belt. After retrieving her duffel bag, he shoved it and the severed head in the trunk. It was a tight fit with his bag also stashed in the back, but there was no other place for it. The trunk closed and that’s all he cared about.
    He hopped into the driver’s seat and glanced at Jeliyah. She was smiling about something. His dick twitched. She looked better with a smile. He would bet she looked fantastic with those plump lips open and moaning her pleasure.
    Teaghan started the car and peeled out of the lot, headed for the nearest hotel. The first sign he saw that said cable TV, laundry service and free breakfast was where he stopped to get a room.
    His cell played a hip-hop beat just as he was laying Jeliyah on one of the two double beds. She frowned in her sleep and her necromes glowed, forming a shield around her that crackled with the energy powering it.
    Timing. Teaghan stepped back from the bed and answered his phone. “What?”
    “Yo, Big T. It’s Rick. You busy?”
    “Not so much. What you got for me?”
    “The usual. Three large for the night plus tips. You in?”
    “Where?”
    “Kent’s.”
    Teaghan shook his head. “Five plus tips and free drinks.”
    “Come on, man. You’re killing me.”
    “Take it or leave it. I just came off a hunt so I’m happy to take my ass to bed. And for putting up with Kent’s bullshit, I should charge you an extra three instead of two. I’m giving you a discount on account of me being in a good mood.”
    “Fine. Fine. Five, tips and drinks. When can you get here?”
    “Give me an hour. I’ve got to cash out.” He ended the call and clipped the phone back in its holster.
    He perused Jeliyah’s body, lingering at her breasts. “Damn shame.”
    He would have liked to stay and see how far he could get with his little partner but her necromes activating had stalled that idea. The woman must have a real hate on for hip-hop to react in her sleep like that to a little music. If he tried to touch her now, the shield surrounding her would send enough voltage through him to make a lightning rod jealous.
    Since he wasn’t a masochist or the suicidal type, he decided to leave his exploration for another night, preferably one where she wasn’t wearing those damn necromes. He would be limited to exploring until she gave him permission to do more.
    He grinned at the thought of how he would get that permission. Her breasts would be his first stop. He wanted to spend time getting to know those twin mounds until Jeliyah was pleading for him to do more. And she would. Teaghan hadn’t met a woman yet who didn’t ask for
