“Yeah?” Everleigh opens the fridge and pulls out the butter, sour cream, and steak sauce.
“She acted a little…weird.”
Everleigh narrows her eyes. “What do you mean?”
I explain what happened, down to her touching my arm and being in my personal space. I even mentioned what she said about me no longer being single. Everleigh grinds her teeth like she’s ready to take her steak knife and find Dana.
“She’s been so damn sketchy lately, but this is her final straw. I’m firing her ass tomorrow,” she scoffs.
“Babe, don’t make any rash decisions. Maybe she was just being friendly, and I took it the wrong way. I’m not Southern bred.”
She rolls her eyes. “You don’t need to be. Everyone knows there’s a fine line between friendly and tryin’ to steal another woman’s man. She made you uncomfortable, and that doesn’t sit right with me.”
I grab her wrist and pull her to my chest. “Even if that was her intention, it’d never work. I’m too madly, crazy, and stupidly in love withyou.”
She sighs, then finally smiles. “Fine, but I’m at least having a chat with her. Make sure she knows I’m aware of what she said to my man. Then if she pisses me off again, she’s gone.”
I chuckle, then tilt up her chin. “Another reason I adore you so much.”
I swipe my tongue between her lips and taste her sweetness.
“Maybe you canshowme just how much,” she taunts.
“Always got your mind in the gutter, don’t ya?”
Once our food is ready, we sit on the couch and eat. Everleigh puts on another episode fromOnly Murders in the Building, and I contemplate how I’m going to tell her about the text message and picture I got today.
“This show just gets crazier and crazier,” she says when it ends. “Also, that was the best steak and potatoes I’ve ever had.” Everleigh smiles, wrapping her arm around me and colliding her lips to mine. “Thank you.”
“I need to tell you something.”
She straightens, and that wrinkle between her brows appears. I hate making her worry, but I promised not to keep any secrets from her, good and bad.
“What is it?”
After a moment, I explain what I got from the unknown number. Then I show her the screenshot I saved, and she mutters a few curse words.
“Now that you’ve given me a description of her, if she comes near me, I’m using my Taser.”
“Babe, you can’t just tase anyone with jet-black hair.”
“Tase first, ask questions later,” she counters.
I chuckle, pulling her onto my lap. “She’s just trying to intimidate and piss me off, but all it does is bring us closer.”
“So what you’re saying is, orgasms are the way to get revenge.” She pops a brow, rocking her body against mine.
“That’s exactly right.” I lift my hips and push my bulge into her.
Everleigh moans as she grinds into me, then slowly slides off. I give her a look and ask what she’s doing.
“I got a little surprise for you today…” She pulls a small container out of her pocket and pops it open.
“What is that?” I ask hesitantly.
She flashes a wicked grin, then slips something onto her tongue.
“Everleigh…”
