Lottie leans in closer as Audrey rubs her hands together like some maniacal villain.

“Oh give it to me. No, wait. Please don’t say Xander has a small dick. I would be distraught for you.”

I sigh and shake my head. “He has a very impressive dick, but this is about Beck.”

“Okay, what’s up, because I’ve seen him at the club and he’s packing.”

I’m not sure how I feel about Audrey knowing what Beck’s cock looks like, but I mull it over for a minute and decided it doesn’t matter. They run a sex club, for God’s sake. It stands to reason they use it from time to time. Unless?

“Please tell me you and Beck have never.…”

Audrey makes a disgusted face. “Eww, no. Wash your mouth out.” She beckons the waiter over. “Can we get a pitcher of Margaritas, please?”

“Yes, Madam, of course.”

The waiter runs off and Audrey shivers with distaste. “See, that comment has me day-drinking when I should be putting the fear of God into a room full of overgrown schoolboys who think they know how to run a company.”

“I hope that doesn’t include Linc.”

Audrey pats Lottie’s hand. “No, my cousin is one of the good ones.”

“Can we focus, please? I need your help.”

Our margaritas arrive and Lottie pours as I fiddle with the hem of my dress. “Okay so we did things, lots of things, yesterday, but Beck only really kissed me and touched me some. We didn’t actually have sex.”

“And?”

I squirm as Audrey makes me say it. “Do you think maybe he just wants Xander, and I’m the side salad he has to have on the side to get it?”

Audrey tips her head back and barks out a laugh, banging her hand on the table. I frown at Lottie who’s trying to hide a smile. “What the hell?”

Audrey wipes the tears from her eyes, not once smearing her mascara. “Oh my god that is priceless.” She sobers and yanks my hand between her palms. “My darling girl, Beck has been head over heels for you for as long as I’ve known him and we all know it. The only two people who didn’t were you and him. When you walk into a room, it’s like nothing else exists for him, he tracks your every movement and reacts to your needs before you can even voice them. How the sexual chemistry between you two hasn’t burnt down the buildings you occupy is beyond me.”

Lottie is nodding as I look between them in shock. Is this true? Have we been dancing around something for an age when all along we both felt the same way?

“I can see you spiraling, so let me stop you. You and Beck have something special, but I think it wasn’t the right time for you before and now it is. He wants you but my guess is he’s still worried about losing you. Beck is strong but I don’t think he would survive not having you in his life.”

“What should I do?”

“Talk to him. Tell him what you told us. A relationship is hard but when three people are involved it becomes harder and communication is key.”

Her words make sense and I have the overwhelming urge to see him and settle this now before my brain can whip me into any more of a frenzy. “Do you think I should talk to Xander about it?”

Lottie shakes her head. “I don’t. I think even in this you still have individual relationships within the three of you. This isn’t about Xander so you and Beck need to work it out between you.”

“I agree with our little Lottie.”

Lottie rolls her eyes at Audrey. “Only Linc calls me that.”

I stand abruptly from the table. “I have to go.”

“’Atta girl.”

“Are you all going to Norrie’s cookout tomorrow afternoon?”

I blink at Lottie. “I guess. We haven’t discussed it yet.”

“Does Norrie know?”
