“It’s not,” I assure her.

“Your brother knows you’re not alone,” she accuses.

“I’m okay with that, Jules,” I tell her.

Her concern grows tenfold. “What is he going to think of me when I try to sneak out of here?”

“You’re not sneaking out.”

“Fine. I’ll wait here for your brother to leave,” she crosses her arms under her naked chest, lifting her tits in a tempting way.

Focus.

“You don’t get it,” I say.

Confusion tugs her eyebrows together.

“You’re not my dirty little secret, Jules.”

Her expression is unreadable.

“Linc and I haven’t connected face-to-face since I left for the lawyers’ office two days ago. Yesterday, I was at the office in the morning. He was meeting with some new suppliers. I spent the afternoon and evening with you. He didn’t expect me back at the office, but we usually catch up at the end of the day. Last night I was involved in a sex marathon with a sexy as fuck blonde––who happens to be my new business partner––so… he doesn’t know about us yet.”

A rosy shade of pink blooms on her cheeks.

“This isn’t how I was going to introduce you to my brother, but hey,” I shrug, “it is what it is.”

“You want to introduce me to your brother?” she shrieks.

“Of course. You’re my girl.”

She’s incredulous.

“You’re a part of my life now,” I insist.

She takes a deep breath and blows it out, rolling her shoulders back before craning her neck from side to side. “This is still so new…” There’s a thread of uncertainty in her voice that gives me pause.

She’s right. This is new. I’m slightly out of practice and, true to form, I’m putting the pedal to the metal.

I place a finger under her chin and tilt her head up. “So?”

She bites her lower lip. She’s considering. “So nothing, I guess.”

“Good.” Taking her hands into mine, I bring them to my lips and drop a soft kiss. “I have an extra toothbrush you can use and you can borrow one of my t-shirts. Let’s get freshened up, then we’ll go meet the family.”

The smile on her face speaks of relief. “Okay. I’d like that.”

Jules and I walk hand in hand down the stairs.

My t-shirt swallows her, and her long hair is piled up in a messy bun on the top of her head. Her beautiful face is devoid of any trace of makeup. She simply radiates. If it weren’t for my brother’s unplanned visit, I would be balls deep inside her right now.

I curse under my breath, shaking my head.

“What?” Jules asks.

“Nothing.”

It’s clear she doesn’t believe me, but she lets it slide.
