Rough — V.J. Chambers

Demetrius “Danger” Gallo

I'm too rough for her. I'm coarse. Untamed. Brutal.

I'm a dangerous man.

The things I want to do to her…

Things like that should never be done to a girl like her.

If it weren't for the fact I need her hacker skills for this job, I wouldn't allow her anywhere near me.

Because fighting my urges, well, that's not easy for a man like me.

I'm a virgin, but I'm not a prude.

It's only that I've got rules. My work comes first.

I'm here to rescue a woman from the mob.

He's here to kill a man.

We're busy.

Anyway, he doesn't think of me that way.

He treats me like a kid sister -- one who can't get anything right.

He might be massive and masculine, with a deep, rumbling voice that gives me shivers.

But that doesn't mean that I'm attracted to him or anything.

Because if I were, things could get rough.
