*Jax's POV*
"Do you want to see how a kiss should really feel?"
Sera's question hung in the air between us, soft yet dangerous. My wolf stirred, suddenly alert to the shift in her energy.
I should say no. Walk away. This woman was chaos wrapped in a beautiful package, and I already knew she could tear me apart.
"Yes," I answered instead.
A slow smile spread across her face. "Good. But we're going to play by my rules."
Before I could react, she placed her palm against my chest and backed me against the wall. The move was so unexpected that I let it happen, my back hitting the surface with a soft thud.
"Rule one: you don't touch me." Her eyes gleamed with wicked intent. "No matter what happens, your hands stay against this wall."
I opened my mouth to protest, but she pressed a finger to my lips.
"Rule two: you don't move. Not an inch."
"And if I do?" I challenged, my voice rougher than intended.
"Then I stop." Her finger traced my bottom lip. "Immediately."
