31. "You lied to me."

"You lied to me, Swan." Killian said huffing, as he tilted his head to speak, trying to loosen the rope tied to his arms and wrist. "You said it was an easy case; that you'll catch the guy quickly and we'd be on our way to our dinner plans in no time."

They were in a basement somewhere; each of them tied to a chair, facing away from each other, her back to his.

"I am sorry." Emma retorted frustrated. "I misread the situation… It won't happen again." She said as she tried to maneuver her ties into the dent of the chair to start cutting the rope.

"How did we end up tied in a basement, Swan?" He sighed. "I'm a police captain! Gods, I am a disgrace to the force. Mac is never going to let this die when he finds out."

"Well, I would have seen it coming if someone wasn't breaking my concentration by licking my neck and shoving his tongue on my mouth." She scoffed at him, clearly as frustrated as he was at being so reckless.

"Darling, I don't recall you complaining about it. Actually, the sounds you were making were clearly not complaints." He retorted as he moved his fingers, sensing the knots, and smirked.

"You couldn't wait until we made it to the restaurant, at least?" She said frustrated as she continued to work on cutting the rope. "You just had to jump me the moment we were on the car…"

"Can you blame a man for trying to make the best of a night out with his wife after they could finally get a sitter?" He replied annoyed as he loosened the knot, thinking that whoever did it was clearly an amateur. "Besides, if I recall correctly, your hand was getting reacquainted with the front of my pants, Swan."

"Hook, I swear you're such an insufferable ass sometimes!" She yelled.

"I prefer scoundrel…" He replied back.

Emma had finally cut through the rope. "Finally!" She said.

Killian had loosen the tie on his arms, "About bloody time" He said.

They both got up and turned around at the same time, ready to help the other. They both sported the same shocked look at seeing the other standing in front of them.

She broke out of her shock to smirk at him. "Thief." She said with a lopsided grin.

"Pirate." He smirked back raising his eyebrows at her.

He was in front of her in that same instant, crushing his lips to hers in a lustful kiss. When he pulled back, he had a predatory gaze on his eyes.

"Now, can we please go get this asshole so we can move on to more enjoyable activities?" He asked in a husky voice.

"Aye."
