Alex
Iwas sick and tired of dealing with the attorney and could not wait for this divorce to be finalized. Belinda was driving me nuts with her constant ‘woe is me’ tirade and pushing for more cash in the settlement. As far as I was concerned, she wasn’t getting another dime from me.
My attorney told me that the newest copy of the settlement would be in my mailbox, and I was in a rush to get it when I came around the corner a bit more aggressively than I had intended and almost knocked one of my neighbors on her ass.
I might have felt bad for it, but I didn’t have time to soothe her bruised ego at the moment. What had Belinda demanded to have now?
I retrieved the mail and walked away from the woman without much thought. Well, I guess I shouldn’t say that. I did have a few thoughts about her, like how sexy her eyes were as they threw flames my way and how attractive her mouth was as she pouted.
Pouting lips and blazing eyes are what got me in trouble in the first place, and I hadn’t gotten myself out of it yet.
I tore open the envelope, my gaze scanning over the words, looking for what was new when I overheard the woman talking.
“You remember that guy that I told you about that is sexy as sin but rude as fuck?”
Was she talking about me? I kept listening as she paused and then continued a moment later, and I knew she was indeed talking about me. Interesting that she wanted me to do dirty things to her, and I liked the idea of receiving a spanking as well.
I managed to pull my focus back to my mail and find the clause that my attorney had advised me of. Instead of calling him on my way out the door, I returned to the elevator. This conversation needed to be behind closed doors in case I lost my shit.
On the way up to my apartment, I decided to play with fire a little bit and teased the sexy woman. As I stepped away from her, I realized that it had been over a year since I’d had any sexual relationship, and it was hitting me hard.
So hard that when I got to my apartment, I considered sitting down on the couch and jacking one off with that auburn-haired beauty still fresh on my mind. I didn’t, though, because the moment I entered my apartment, I remembered the envelope in my hands and wanted to strangle my ex.
I called Jack, my attorney, and had to wait on hold for a few moments before he got on. “I assume you read it.”
“Yes, where the hell does she get off thinking she is entitled to anything from my collection—especially work that I have not even done!”
“She’s fishing, Alex. I told you that she realized the mistake she had made. She thinks if she makes this divorce too difficult, you’ll give in and go back to her.”
“That’s not happening, Jack!”
“I know that. She’s determined, though.”
“Well, you go back to her attorney and tell her they can both kiss my ass. Belinda and I weren’t even married two years, and only together less than three. This divorce is going to take longer than our marriage lasted. She isn’t getting another penny from me, especially on anything I haven’t done yet! She’s the one that cheated on me. I don’t understand how she thinks she is owed this!”
“I hear you, Alex. I do.”
I sighed wearily. “Sorry for blowing up, Jack. I just wish this was over.”
“I know you do. I’m trying. I’ll see if I can somehow get her attorney on our side. I’ve been up against her before, and she’s a pretty fair lawyer. She has to know that this is bullshit.”
“Of course it’s bullshit, Jack. Belinda fucked my manager at least half a dozen times. Jesus, one night she even gave him a blow job while I was in the next room. That’s how I figured it all out in the first place.”
“I know. She’s a piece of work, but she’s now saying that you told her to sleep with your manager to further your career.”
“What?” I bellowed. “You’re kidding. Did she really fucking say that?”
“Yep, that’s what Francine, her attorney, told me earlier today. Belinda is stating that you forced her to have sex with Buck to get you another show.”
“Forced her? Forced her!” My voice rose, and with it my blood pressure. The next time I see that woman, I was going to give her a piece of my mind! “I didn’t force her to do shit! God damnit, Jack. What can I do to get this woman off my back?”
He sighed and said, “I don’t know, Alex. Hold tight. We’ll get it figured out.” He hesitated. “You sure you didn’t say anything to her about maybe sleeping with Buck at any time, even as a joke?”
“No! Absolutely not.”
“Well, you can’t blame me for asking. I’m aware of your past indiscretions, Alex.”
“Yeah, well, it’s all bullshit anyway, and my past indiscretions didn’t include making my wife fuck my manager for better wall space.”
