Chapter 2

Colt froze.

Then he rushed to apologize. "I'm sorry, babe. If you don't want to make love outside, we won't. That's on me…"

I cut him off with a cold laugh. "I said get the hell away from me. Are you deaf? We're done. As of right now."

I didn't want to waste any more time on this scumbag. In a few minutes those convicts would come strolling through here.

I had to get out of this place, fast!

But Colt just stood there, totally lost.

In his mind, I was the sweet one, the pushover. I'd never said a harsh word to him, and I sure as hell had never said the word "breakup."

So he chased after me, begging, "Babe, I shouldn't have asked you for that. I'm sorry. Forgive me, okay? Don't do the breakup thing!"

I looked him over, his broad chest, his firm backside, and suddenly I had a plan.

"You want me to forgive you? Sure."

"Take your clothes off. We're going to play a game."

I pulled the climbing rope out of my backpack.

I dangled it from my fingers, teasing, and held his eyes.

It clicked for him right away. He smirked, kind of sleazy about it.

"Oh, so that's the game! You had me going for a second. I knew you weren't really breaking up with me.

"Fine, fine. Whatever you want, babe!"

He honestly thought I was playing a couples' game.

He turned around and slowly stripped, then let me tie him to a tree.

So he wouldn't get suspicious, I only tied his hands and left his legs free to move.

I dragged a leaf across his chest, slow and ticklish, and said, "Turn around. Face away from me, strike a few sexy poses, and make some noise Do it right and I'll forgive you."

He grinned, turned his back to me, and actually started working it. Every so often a low, throaty moan came out of him.

While he did, I turned around and threw every piece of his clothing down the canyon.

In a few minutes, when the fugitives showed up and saw Colt like this, they'd go for him!

Then Colt could be the one to keep them busy!

And that would give me time to run!

While he was still facing away, I quickly packed up my bag.

But when I got to Colt's phone, I saw a few iMessage previews pop up on the screen.

【Did you get the camera set up?】

【Did she agree to make love it in the woods?】

【Ugh, I know you're doing this for our future, but I'm still so jealous. I miss you so much…】

I tapped the sender's profile picture to blow it up, and I recognized her instantly!
