I chuckled as I shrugged into mine. “Then maybe put your coat onafterwe leave. The last thing I need is Benoit eyeing what’s mine.”

I unlocked and opened the door to greet my friend.

“Good morning, Benny. Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Benoit turned on my porch, his Burberry winter cape flowing around his body with extra flair as his eyes narrowed on me.

“Well, it’s about ti—” Benoit’s words stopped forming as his eyes shifted past my shoulder to Preston.Then his knowing gaze came back to mine and his glossy lips slid into a sly smirk. “Good morning, indeed.”

I barely resisted the urge to roll my eyes as I stepped aside and held the door open for Preston.

“Benoit, you remember Preston.”

Preston stepped up beside me, and Benoit’s eyes roved down over him. He never could resist a beautiful man.

“Do I ever. Morning,mon cher.”

“Morning. It’s nice to see you again.”

“Not nearly as nice as it is to seeyou.”

“Okay, that’s enough of that.” I stepped out onto the porch and grabbed my friend’s elbow.

“What? It is nice to see him.” Benoit batted his lashes at me. “Bet he’s even nicer to wake up to.”

“Benny,” I warned, but even I could tell it was halfhearted as Benoit turned back to a grinning Preston.

“He’s so grumpy. Did I interrupt you two, or did his back?—”

“Have a good day, Preston,” I said, and practically dragged Benoit down the stairs to where a car was waiting for us.

“Yes, have a good day, Preston,” Benoit called out as Preston’s laughter followed us, and I shoved my friend in the arm.

“Are you insane?” I said. The driver pulled open the door for Benoit as I marched around to my side and glared at him over the roof.

“No,mon ami. I’m jealous as hell. So get your ass in the car—I want all the dirty details, and don’t act like there aren’t any. That boy is lucky he has any clothes to wear home today. Animal.”

Benoit’s laughter floated into the cool morning air as he ducked into the car. My eyes drifted back up to my porch to see Preston standing there staring down at me with his phone in hand.

A second later, a text came through.

PRESTON:

Have a good day, Mr. Carrington. Just know that me and my mouth could’ve made it GREAT ;)

My dick jerked as I imagined exactly what he’d written and?—

Shit,if anyone ever saw that, and who it was from…I needed to change his name in my phone, pronto.

The cocky fuck winked as he shrugged into his coat. Preston Abernathy was the kind of trouble I’d always made sure to avoid, so why was it that I could no longer seem to stay away?

SIXTEEN

I HADN’T BEEN able to lose the smile on my face all day. How could I when I’d woken up in Archer Carrington’s bed? When we’d spent all night giving each other mind-blowing orgasms and exploring every inch of each other?

I’d fantasized about what that would be like more times than I could count, but even in my most erotic dreams, nothing compared to the reality. I could still feel him everywhere, could still smell him on my skin, and it had my heart lurching and my stomach tumbling all over again. I was already counting down to the next time I could be with him. I knew I’d see him tomorrow at the Elysium, but that would just be hours of looking with no touching. Something I would’ve been okay with before last night. Before knowingwhathis touch felt like.
