My father grimaces at my grandmother’s admonishment. “I’m sorry, Lyla. I shouldn’t have said that. I’m just…I’m worried about you getting hurt.”
Ignoring him, I say, “Goodbye, Grandma. I’ll call you later,” then give her a kiss on the cheek before I walk out the door.
Only when I’m outside do I belatedly remember that I don’t have a car. Thane’s still driving it around, and my broken phone doesn’t work.
But I’ll be damned if I go back inside my father’s house tonight.

Thankfully, for whatever reason, Jordan was in the area. He came and picked me up so that I didn’t have to pay for an Uber. The kid is all right. And having a prospect around sure does come in handy. Well, one who takes orders. Greer is a prospect too, Remy’s, actually. But he’s busy running a bar. Even if he wasn’t, he wouldn’t do any shit you tell him to.
Will the guys I met in the army want to take orders, be a prospect? Hopefully, I’ll find out this week.
“Thanks again for the ride,” I tell the kid.
“Crazy night?” he asks.
“Yeah, it was…different, that’s for sure.”
“You got laid, didn’t you?”
I glance over at him, and he’s wearing a knowing grin on his face as he watches the road. “What makes you say that?”
“You’re nicer.”
“Nicer? I thought I was always nice.”
“You are. I guess what I meant is you don’t look as angry at the world or at yourself as you did yesterday. Getting off is one of the few cures for self-loathing. At least temporarily…”
“Yeah, I guess you’re right.”
“So, you did get laid?”
“I did,” I finally admit. “If a woman saysjust for tonight, do you think she really means it?”
Jordan snickers. “If there’s one thing I’ve learned from women, from my mom, is that they don’t say shit unless they mean it. The problem is men aren’t usually listening.”
“Yeah,” I mutter. I’m more than a little disappointed. What did I expect the kid to say? Thatjust for tonightmeans something different nowadays? It’s not a complicated sentence.
Still, Lyla looked like she enjoyed herself. Well, after she faked the first orgasm. I had no idea she was inexperienced. I don’t think she had ever had one before I got her off with my tongue. Fuck, I loved getting all of her firsts. I want more of them.
“What if she’s a virgin?” I ask Jordan.
“Huh?”
“If a virgin saysjust for tonight, do you think she means it?”
“Jesus, man! Was she at least eighteen?”
“What?” Oh, he’s asking if she was legal. “Yes, she’s twenty-one. I’m only twenty-two.”
“Oh, okay, good. I didn’t take you for the type, but you never know.”
“Right. So back to my question…”
“I don’t know, man. I guess it depends. How did you feel about the woman you lost your virginity to?”
“Let’s not go there tonight. I’m in too good of a mood to spoil it,” I tell him.
