I checked my phone for the time, and grabbed my purse as I stood up. “That’s one of the more awkward things you’ve said this morning.”
“It’s the truth!”
“Ha. Go home and get some sleep, I need to get to work before my brothers start hunting down random guys.”
“I’ll see you tonight for a repeat of last week!”
I turned and hushed her as I looked around the coffee shop. “Please don’t interrupt us again tonight, I haven’t seen him since Wednesday.”
“I kid. I kid,” she said with a wry smile. “But I want details of your monkey sex tomorrow!”
My face had to be as red as my hair by now. I widened my eyes at her and laughed lamely when she blew me a kiss. “Sometimes I just want to punch you.”
“You love me!”
“I do. Seriously, go get some sleep. You look like the crypt keeper.”
Amber threw her head back when she laughed. “Ah, bitch. I love you too.”
I laughed and ran out the door and to my car. My phone went off right after I’d pulled into my parking spot at work, and I frowned when I saw Co
Which also meant I couldn’t make my day go by faster by talking to him since he would be busy with work.
Seven hours, thirty-six games of Minesweeper, and twenty games of solitaire later . . . and I was now all cozy in my desk chair as I read from my Kindle. But I was distracted. Other than one more text from Co
Bryce and I would go a week without talking, and I wouldn’t give it a second thought. A week and a half with Co
“What’s this?”
I almost tipped my chair backward when I flung my legs off the desk and reached wildly for the Kindle that had just been ripped out of my hands. “Give it back, Kota!”
“And his throbbing member—”
“Ew! You know it doesn’t say that. Give it back, asshole.”
He tossed my Kindle on my desk and sat down next to it. “What’s up, brat?”
I reached forward for my e-reader, but he slapped my hands away. “Ugh, what do you want?”
“What? I can’t check on my favorite sister?” he said with a charming grin.
“I’m your only sister, fucker. And, no, you can’t. You only ever come up here to piss me off somehow.”
“Not true, and I’m offended,” he grabbed at his chest dramatically. “I’m being nice and you’re just wanting to hurt me.”
“What do you want, Dakota?” I repeated as I crossed my arms over my chest.
“I need to know if you took care of the setup for the new clients we got this week.”
“Yes, I finished it as soon as Craig gave me the information, and the security officers have been informed of the new places.”
“See? Favorite sister.”
“Why are you really in here?”
He leaned forward, his hands gripping the edge of the desk as his expression got serious. “I want Amber’s number.”
“Um, no. Definitely not. She has a boyfriend, and I told you both no already!”
“I just want her number, I didn’t say I was going to try anything with her.”
My eyebrows rose up, and I laughed humorlessly. “You honestly think I believe you right now?”
“Hell no, but you can’t blame me for trying.”
Jumping off the desk, he grabbed my Kindle and began walking away. “Put. The Kindle. Down.” When he didn’t stop walking, I spoke louder. “Don’t make me use the ‘daddy’ card.”
Dakota froze and hung his head before he turned around. “Bitch,” he hissed under his breath as he roughly tossed it back on my desk.
“Aww, and here I thought I was your favorite.”
“Doesn’t change the fact that you’re a bitch.”
“I learned from you.”
He huffed and turned back around. “Tell Amber I’m looking forward to Mammoth with her in a little over a week.”
“I’ll be sure to tell her you have syphilis.”
Dakota shuddered and looked back at me. “That’s just cruel.”
“It’s up to you, try something with her and I’ll make up a massive list of STDs that you miraculously and suddenly got overnight.”
“You don’t play nice.”
I shrugged and inspected my Kindle to make sure he hadn’t damaged it. “Neither do you.”
Sam came up behind him and shoved him into the wall, pi
“I am. I’ll see you Monday.” I grabbed my purse, yelled an “I love you” to my dad so I wouldn’t have to pass Dakota, and made my way outside.
Once I was home, I tried reading again, but I couldn’t even remember the main character’s name, so I did something else to pass the time.
I cleaned.
I know, I was that desperate for time to speed up.
A couple hours in, I’d thoroughly deep cleaned my apartment and was rearranging Christmas decorations when my phone chimed.
“Freaking hell. Finally!” I yelled at my phone as I raced to get it off the counter.
Co
My face broke out into a ridiculous smile, and I hurried to hop in the shower so I could clean up before going to his place.

GRIPPING MACI’S HIPS, I gritted my teeth and tried to hold off until she was ready. Judging by the sounds she was making, she was close, but watching her ride me was making it almost impossible to keep myself from coming first.
I forced my right hand to release her hip, and brought it in between us to tease her clit.
“Oh, shit!” she cried out and threw her head back.
Her movements became frantic until she started shuddering, and her body bowed over mine as she tried to continue moving at the same pace. But the force of her orgasm had sent me into my own, and my hands gripped her soft skin to stop her movements as I finished pumping into her.
Maci’s forehead was resting on my chest, her shoulders and back rising and falling from her erratic breathing. Placing a soft kiss on my chest, she turned her head so her cheek was resting against me, and I ran one hand through her vibrant red hair as I wrapped my other arm around her.
“Come here,” I commanded gently and pulled her up to me so I could kiss her lips, which were still swollen from the rough sex we’d had earlier.
There was still a line from where I’d bitten down a little too rough on her bottom lip, and I ran my thumb over it. She quickly bit down on the tip of my thumb and gri
“I didn’t mean to hurt you,” I tried to assure her.
“You didn’t,” she said with a smile. “I didn’t even feel it. I wouldn’t have known if you hadn’t noticed the blood.” Her face fell and she brought a hand up to cup my face. “Co
But I’d made her bleed. I fucking hated that. All I’d been able to think about in those first few seconds of seeing the blood on her lip was what if next time, it wasn’t during rough sex? I opened my mouth to respond, when loud banging came from my door.
Maci and I both froze, and her eyes got massive when we heard the voices.
“Get out here, you pussy! Let’s go get a beer!”
She was off me and scrambling to find her clothes so fast that she stumbled into my dresser, and hissed a string of curses as she started to dress. I’d just grabbed a pair of jeans and was stepping into them when the banging got louder and they started up again.
