“Better to know now than later, right?”
“What?!”
“Baby, listen,” he grabbed my chin. “I know it sounds like a lot. And honestly, maybe thisisreally soon. But… I thought you weren’t pussy?”
“Did you forget your dick is my hand?”
“Not at all. I’m hoping you decide to climb on and teach me a lesson.”
Instead, I squeezed him a little too hard.
“It’s not funny.”
“I’m not laughing,” he countered, still cringing.
I stared at him for a long moment, then pumped my hand again. “Do I need to bring anything?”
“Just yourself. And your sparkling personality.”
“Uh huh.” I hissed as he slipped a hand between my legs, his attention focused on my sensitive clit.
“So you’ll be there?”
A moan rumbled in my throat as he pushed those fingers further – pushed them into me.
“Yes.”

Alicia insisted on an alarm system.
That had been her biggest thing, when I talked to her that morning that followed the break-in.
She was fine with the supposition that this was a random crime or even that I was targeted - for being such a lovely addition to the neighborhood, not for my past.

She wanted me to get an alarm system at least, just in case.
“Normalcy makes you rusty,”she’d said, meaning it as a teasing thing, but it was rooted in truth. I wasn’t training like I used to - I wasn’t training at all. Wasn’t being challenged in the ways in which I’d grown accustomed.
I was eating too much macaroni and cheese at Pot Liquor, doing too much hanging out and laughing with Anika and Jules, too much texting with Dacia and Pen.
I was gonna open the candle shop. Willow handled most of the paperwork for that, but there was still a need to make a shit ton of candles.
Another deep distraction.
And then - worst? - of all… I was incredibly, disgustingly wrapped up in Tristan.
And I was… happy.
You’d be even happier if you get your ass to that hair appointment..
Oh shit.
Yes.
I was already dressed and ready to go, just had to stop musing about the meaning of life long enough to actually set the alarm on the shop and leave. I was still getting used to it, but it was simple enough.
