This isn’t okay. He’s going to get hurt!”
“No, he’s not. He’s good at what he does, Sara. Just keep your eyes on him. Eight seconds is a lot faster out here than it is on that thing.”
The announcers were shouting something and the crowd went wild. The air seemed to still, and then the cage door was snapped open. Beast reared out of the cage.
13.
My heart stopped beating as I watched the bull throw its body in every direction. It kicked out its back legs over and over again while jerking its head around, trying its best to get Justin off.
I couldn’t look away. Justin held on to the bull with one hand while his other arm stayed in the air, flying all over the place. The crowd had faded from my awareness, as had the announcers. All I could hear was a white noise that blared in my ears.
My vision tunneled until all I could see was Justin being slung about. My lungs contracted painfully and I sucked in a sharp breath. “How much longer?!”
Justin’s grip was loosening. I could see that the bull was about to kick him off. I screamed in time with the buzzer as Justin flew through the air and landed on his knees in the dirt.
He jumped to his feet and ran to the fence to climb out of reach just in time. The bull rammed into the fence below his feet and paced about, right behind him.
“He pissed that bull off!” Avery’s excited voice reached me, and I could hear how pumped he was.
I looked over at him and Devon and watched as they high fived and did a weird handshake. My heart had started back up in a painful rhythm. I became fully aware of the crowd around us in a flash. Screams were erupting from everywhere. Everyone was as excited as Avery and Devon. I , on the other hand, felt like I’d just watched someone cheat death, and I just wanted to touch Justin to make sure he was okay.
“Here he comes, Sara.”
I followed Avery’s eyes and watched as Justin trotted over to our side of the fence. He’d taken his helmet off and his dark hair was matted to his head, but I’d never seen him look better.
Justin climbed over the fence in a beat and was standing in front of me. He ignored the cheers and pats on the back he was getting. Instead, his eyes were on me. “You’re here.”
I gave him a shaky smile and nodded. I couldn’t speak. Up close, he was a force. His body seemed even more masculine in his gear. He was too hot for me to be able to function.
“You okay?” He took a step closer and grinned down at me.
I shook my head.
“What’s wrong?”
I pressed my chest against him. “You aren’t kissing me yet.”
He grabbed me and slammed his mouth down on mine. It wasn’t a sweet kiss. He was giving me everything he had. I’d missed him, and I did my best to show him exactly how much. His hands slid down to my ass and grabbed it before jerking me up. I wrapped my legs around him the best I could in my dress and held on tight.
“Seems Justin Steele has a special lady in his life. Sorry, ladies. I know you all came out hoping for a chance at the stud, but it looks as if he’s taken.” The announcer’s voice cut through my lust-induced fog.
I pulled back and laughed as Justin threw his arm in the air, not unlike the way he had on the bull. I slapped his chest and then kissed him again. “Three weeks are over.”
His eyes turned serious and he put me down. “Yeah?”
I nodded. “Whose house are we going to tonight?”
Avery’s face appeared in between us. “Sorry to interrupt your plans for screwing, but you still have the rest of the show to do, Justin.”
Justin punched Avery in the arm and kissed my forehead. “He’s right. I still have two more rides and a speech to give. Are you done with the bake sale?”
I nodded. “Sold out.”
He let me slide down his body and groaned. “I’ve never ridden with a boner before. This should be interesting. Stay and watch?”
I couldn’t move. I was frozen in my spot. “Of course.”
He kissed me once more before climbing
