“And from what I understand, the lights guy quit last night because Crew pissed him off,” she said.
We entered the building, and sure enough, Crew met us at the door with the news.
Leaving him with a shit-eating grin on his face, and the understanding that he was only a few short days away from freedom.
“Now what?” Crew asked, looking between the two of us.
“Now we go home and get showers. I’m disgusting. And we’re cold,” I answered.
“On that note…” she mumbled. “I’m going to collect my things.”
“You should stay,” Crew said as he tossed me my shirt I’d left in his office earlier.
I looked at him. “You have a state-of-the-art security system that’s finished, no kid to take care of, and you’re not getting her to stay and take care of the place. Ask Maxine. She knows this place inside and out, and all the ladies listen to her.”
Crew scowled.
“But she has her life together, and she’s awesome.” He sighed. “I talked to her. She said she would consider it. Maxine. Not Hades.”
I nodded.
“I can’t believe I don’t remember her,” he said. “Like literally, I just talked to her not even a few weeks ago. How do you forget someone that you literally just saw?”
I had no clue.
But that was his loss and my gain.
Though I felt bad for Hades.
Being invisible was heart wrenching.
Just the thought of her being ignored made me want to kill things.
“So I’ll get the invoice in the mail?” he asked.
I was already nodding. “Yep. I’ll have my assistant email it out first thing.”
“And you’re out tomorrow?” he wondered.
I was already nodding.
“And Hades?” he asked.
“Her, too,” I said.
I had to fix her.
She couldn’t keep living like this.
And who better to do it than me? Someone that knew how to function when they were just as fucked up as she was.
“Dammit.” He sighed. “Well, it was great meeting you, and thank you for getting things figured out so quickly.”
I didn’t deserve that thanks. “I’ll have my crew come finish up what I didn’t get to today and clean up.”
Crew nodded in thanks.
“Ready?” Hades said as she appeared in the entryway, weaving through people that were now loitering in the hall.
“Ready,” I said. “Let’s go.”
Hades didn’t spare Crew a second glance, which had him scowling.
Laughter on the tip of my lips, I headed out the door to my bike, already dreading the ride home.
Whose bright idea was it for me to ride this up here?
Oh, mine.
I was right.
The ride home was only made bearable due to the way she held onto me the entire way.
We were both downright freezing by the time we made it into our rooms.
With the door still open, we walked straight to our bathrooms and turned on the showers.
Thank God for awesome water heaters.
By the time I finished mine, I was thankful they had great ones.
After finding a seat on my bed in only my sweatpants that I stole back from her, I leaned against the headboard and waited.
I knew she’d come.
She didn’t disappoint, either.
“You took my pants back,” she accused.
I popped one eye open and said, “I took my pants back.”
“To-may-to, to-mah-toe.” She waved her hand through the air.
Then she dived into the bed beside me and rushed under the covers.
I allowed it, because that was exactly where I wanted her to be, and then waited for her to settle before saying my next words.
“I need a Mountain Dew.” I groaned, letting my head fall backwards.
They were my guilty pleasure. Something I only allowed myself to have once in a blue moon.
Hades, who was wrapped in the blankets beside me silently up until now, looked over and said, “I’m not sure Mountain Dew will fix what’s wrong with you.”
I snickered, turning to face her.
When I did, my mouth came within inches of her face.
We both blinked, slightly still on that kiss high from hours earlier.
Then we both reached for each other at the same time.
CHAPTER 12
I got you jumper cables for Christmas since you’re always starting shit.
-Text from Hannibal to Hades
HADES
We hit each other at the same time.
One second, we were far enough apart that it would be considered decent for two near strangers, and the next we were all over each other.
His hand went to my hip, and he all but yanked me on top of him.
I straddled his thick thighs, then placed my panty-clad vagina right where I wanted it. On top of his throbbing cock.
His throbbing, very big, holy hell how is that going to fit in me, cock.
He growled when our bodies met, and then he was kissing me, reminding me in no uncertain terms that he was the controlee in this situation.
“Fuck,” he breathed in my mouth when our tongues parted and we started panting in each other’s breaths. “Are you sure about this?”
And that was all the reason I needed to go through with it.
