I arch my eyebrow. "Why have ya always been so nosy?"

She smirks.

Maeve enters the room, interjecting, "He married me because he could. Isn't that right, babes?" She glares at me.

We've been arguing all morning. She keeps asking me where her father is and why she can't get ahold of him on the phone. I keep giving her the same answer. I tell her we're looking for him, but she keeps accusing me I know more than I'm telling her.

I always deny it. Instead, I promise her I'll find him and then try to divert her attention to something else.

This morning was different. Nothing was working, and I lost my cool. I told her to stop worrying about her piece of shit da who doesn't deserve any of her time.

That got me in the doghouse.

And apparently, she's still pissed at me. Her glare is just as strong as it was this morning.

I cross my arms, tired of her attitude and Arianna interrogating me. "Are ya two ready to go to your class? I have work to do."

I'm glad they became friends, but sometimes I wish they hadn't. Arianna's always been a little pain in my ass. Not that I don't love her to death. She's always been like a sister to me, and it's good for Maeve, but I need a break from them today.

Arianna smirks. "Yep. We're off."

I can't help but dig, asking, "Shopping again, ladies?"

She answers, "Duh. We don't have class today."

"Is that a problem? Have I reached my limit?" Maeve bites out.

I clench my jaw and stare at her. She's bought some things, but it's nothing compared to how Arianna shops. I suspect most of what Maeve does buy is due to Arianna pressuring her. And I couldn't care less about the little amount she's spent. But her anger over Malachy has me a bit salty today. To remind her who's in charge and regain some power, I reply, "Not yet. I'll let ya know when you're getting close."

She rolls her eyes. "Whatever. Let's go, Arianna."

They start to leave, and I call out, "Hey, princess, did ya forget something?"

Maeve looks at me over her shoulder. "What?"

I curl my finger.

She stares me down for a moment.

"You can pay later tonight for ignoring me if ya want," I threaten.

She huffs and struts over to me. She bats her eyes. "What's up, babes?"

I groan in my head. I hate it when I'm in the shitter with her. I point to my cheek. "You're forgetting something."

"Oh, sorry, hubby." She rises on her toes and goes to kiss me on the cheek, but I grab the back of her head and slide my tongue in her mouth. It only takes a few seconds before she kisses me back eagerly.

Since the night at the club, we've been having crazy sex everywhere. I still haven't taken her as I should have, but I've given up on it. She seems as freaky as I am, so I decided I might as well go with it.

As kinky as she is, I've not allowed her back in the club. The other night, she asked about returning, but I said no. I'm unsure when I'll take her again.

I retreat from our kiss and hold her flushed face in front of mine. "Stay safe."

She's slightly out of breath and replies in a much sweeter voice, "I will."

I pat her on the ass and then give her another peck on the lips. "All right, get out of here."

"Yes, sir." She grins, spins toward the door, and she and Arianna link arms and leave.
