Badboy Ace novel Chapter 19

Ryn's pov

I've been in my room sulking for the past five hours and I was grateful that I had already eaten, wouldn't want to get out the room in case I murder Ace.

He was really frustrating with all those sexual jokes. I admit that I wasn't all that mad when he gave them but upset that I couldn't give into my body's needs.

It's just been almost two days and he almost successfully made me let my guard down. Something I didn't plan on doing again anytime soon.

The television was still on and it blared through the small house. I was tempted to tell him to low it down but didn't want to face him as yet. I knew he was doing it to irritate me and I refuse to make him win.

I silently scoff as I scrolled through Facebook on my phone at seeing a picture of my ex-boyfriend that I had dated for like two days. I really didn't know what had gotten into me when I started dating him.

I tossed my phone beside me and looked at the ceiling. I was laying on the bed and I was feeling utterly exhausted. I should've been at work right now probably about to leave but under some circumstances I was now suspended.

It's been so long since I haven't been working twenty four seven trying to take down the Reeds. The ringing of my phone removed me from my thoughts and I quickly picked it up seeing that it was Nate who was calling.

"Ryn!" Nate greeted. He sounded like he was on the verge of having a breakdown.

"Nate, breath, calm down and tell me what's wrong." I said softly and sat up.

"I miss you and my day has been horrible. Captain Stark has informed me that José and I will be partners until you come back." He complains.

I bit my lips feeling a bit of sympathy for Nate. It wasn't a secret that José was a lousy cop and an even lousier partner. His last partner switched departments just to get away from him.

"Nate I understand how you're feeling right now but look, it won't be long until I come back and if José gives you any trouble or captain just go to papa Nathan. It's not like they can do you anything, you're the chief's son." I offered hoping to ease his mind. I hated using papa Nathan when anything goes bad but working with crooks had forced us to.

He sighs making me know he was now relaxed. "I'm just leaving the station want me to come and check you before my date tonight?" He asked. My heart quickened as the image of Nate seeing Ace in my house crossed my mind.

"N-no it's fine I'll see you tomorrow or when you're free." I stuttered and cleared my throat, shifting on the bed uncomfortably. I really didn't know how I'll be able to hide Ace from Nate when he usually comes unexpectedly to my house.

"Woah do you finally have a man at your home tonight Ryn? Are you finally going to pop that cherry of yours?" He laughs.

"Nate there better had not been people around you when you said that!" I hissed already embarrassed if someone heard him.

He laughs. "Chill I'm in my car, there's no one around, so relax your virgin ass."

"Nate if you were near me right now I'd sock you in the eye." I threatened.

His eyebrows were set into a frown as he looked at my outfit. I had dressed appropriately for an outing, with a tight silk red dress that showed off my curves and reached mid-thigh. I had only worn this outfit in hopes of making the manager see eye to eye with me.

He was a pervert and if I knew him like the way I think I do, he'd agree to let me pretend to be a waitress in the restaurant in a heartbeat. A girl can only hope.

I decided to put Ace out of his misery as he waited for my answer. "I'm going to Sauces pack to speak to the manager, I'll meet you there."

He nods but looks at me confused. "You're wearing that to speak to the manager? Are you trying to seduce him Ryn? And why will I meet you there, can't we just go together?" He asked, his face held a hint of anger as he looks at my outfit.

I looked at him like he had grown two heads overnight. "Ace we can't go together dumbass, it'll blow our cover. How am I supposed to pretend like I don't know you if we arrive together?" I asked in exaggeration.

When I thought that my words would've ease his mind he had become more furious. "You didn't answer all my questions Ryn. Do you plan on seducing the manager?" He seethes.

I rolled my eyes at him and threw the apple's core in the bin. "I'm not planning to do anything like that Ace, not that it's any of your business anyway."

He steps towards me and grabs the back of my head. Before I could react he had slammed his lips onto mine in a rough dominating kiss. He pulls away a second later and mumbles. "It is my business."

I stumbled out of his hold and stared at him in shock. I pulled back my hands only to slam it on to his unexpected face. He staggered backwards at the blow. Not knowing what to do again I hastily walked out of the house still feeling my lips tingle from the kiss.
