I heard loud footsteps walk through the kitchen.
A loud voice boomed through the hall. “Where the fuck are you, Luke?”
18
Luke
I grabbed the entire box of condoms from the nightstand. I hated the idea that Alexa was leaving in the morning. I didn’t know if I could say that to her in words. But my body sure as hell could fuck it in to her. She’d know by the time she left the ranch that she was mine. She was coming back to me.
The timing couldn’t be worse. The season had just started, and I had more shit going on right now than usual. But I wasn’t letting this girl go.
I heard a scream and sprinted down the hall.
“What the fuck, Linc!” I hollered at my brother who was gawking at a very naked Alexa on the couch.
She had tried to arrange pillows to cover herself up
.
“So I guess this is a thing.” He eyed her then me.
“Turn your fucking back, you pervert.” I didn’t have frilly blankets and throws. I ran back to the bedroom and grabbed a quilt on the end of the bed.
I hurriedly wrapped Alexa in it.
“Shit, I’m sorry.”
She made a triple wrap and secured it under her arm.
“Who is that?” she asked.
“My brother,” I grumbled.
“Hey, you’re the one who left the door open. No tie or sock on the door. That’s the universal signal for somebody’s gettin’ some.” He laughed. He extended his hand. “Sorry, to meet you like this. I’m Linc, Luke’s older and much more handsome and wiser brother.”
“Hi.” She was suddenly shy and quiet. “Alexa.”
“What are you doing over here?” I quizzed him.
“Not trying to bust up your night.” He kept stealing glances at Alexa.
“Then what?”
“I wanted to talk to you about the campaign. I’m sure you two saw all the headlines.”
Alexa shook her head. “Not for a while. We turned everything off. It was too crazy.”
Linc looked surprised. “It’s the biggest headline tonight. You’ve made all the news cycles. You’re the hottest couple right now. Although no one can come up with a word that combines your names. You’ve stumped them. I did hear ‘ALuxi”, but that’s just dumb.”
“B-but…” Alexa’s eyes darted to me.
“We’re not a couple, Linc.” I stared hard at my brother.
“Just fuck buddies?”
“Hey.” I glared at him.
“Sorry.” He grimaced at Alexa. “Didn’t mean to offend you. I’m just calling what I see. You two are clearly in the same house after the press caught you making out at the hospital. And the girl was completely naked when I walked in. Looks like you are something.”
