“I’m going to need it hard and quick in a minute, but are we done?”

I smile. “I have some debts to pay, I guess.”

She pulls her phone out again. “Dax helped me out with this one and put me on the chain. But I took care of that too.”

HAYDEN: Delightful doing business with you.

LAW: Cha-ching!

ROBBIE: Candy from a baby. Let’s go double or nothing, he yells, “To adventure” soon.

COLTON: This one had me sweating. Did not want to give up that cash. But, Tony, you never disappoint.

DAX: And somehow, you got Dad to pay.

MAK: No. I did. (Makenzie) And from now on, leave my love life out of your little betting pool.

HAYDEN: Woo-Hoo! Mak! Lizzie says, you de witch!

LAW: We’ll see if she can keep her spell cast over him for more than his longest relationship, three years.

MAK: Fine, I’ll freaking play. Double or nothing.

HAYDEN: In.

LAW: In.

COLTON: I’m sweating, but no offense, Makenzie, I’ll take that action. They’re still together in three years.

DAX: In. But if you get married, this bet is null and void.

I type quickly into her phone.

MAK: This is Tony—gentlemen—Candy. Baby.

She pops a hip and closes the door behind her. “There’s nothing standing in our way.”

“Except your clothes.”

“Well, that’s easily handled too. Jeez, give me a challenge.” She whips her dress off, and I get to see her fantastic body. I pick her up, and she wraps her legs around me. I lower her onto my couch.

“I love you, Tony.”

I whip off her cheekies and outline her clit with my finger. “Prove it.” Then she licks her lips and moans a bit. “Always wet for me. How do you do that?”

“Practice.” She sighs and kisses my neck.

I hitch her up a little higher so she can feel what she’s doing to me. “I’ll bet I could spend the rest of my life proving it.”

“I’ll take those odds,” she says with a smile.

I lean up, kiss her, and settle into the very best feeling in the world.

“Come with me. Right now, to the Vineyard, where you will enjoy yourself so much this time, you won’t leave me.”

“Cocky much?”

“Confident.”
