This woman looks a little too put together—and too coherent—to be high on drugs. Then again, I’m sure I looked like I had my shit together when I was in fact high as a kite back in the day.
I reach for my phone. “Listen, lady, I’m about to call security—”
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you.”
“You think you can boss me around? Whatever medication you’re on, ask your doctor for a new prescription—”
“You’ll want to hear what I have to say, Beckett.”
I narrow my gaze and study her. Something about her demeanor suggests I tread carefully.
“I’m going to ask three simple questions. You answer them or I call the police,” I tell her.
“Hit me with your best shot,” she says in a flirtatious tone.
“Who are you? Why are you here? And how the hell did you get into my building?”
She slides a finger between her teeth and bites against it like you’d expect a shy little girl would do. She also does this thing with her shoulders. It looks like a rehash seduction tool from her lame bag of tricks.
“I’m Nerdy Ari’s cousin,” she says.
“Who?”
“Arianne Buchanan,” she says.
Then it hits me.
“You’re Mariah Golightly?”
“She has talked about me?” She beams gleefully. “Of course she would. She’s a little obsessed with me because she wants to be me, but she can’t.”
It takes everything in me not to roll my eyes.
“Let me guess. You’re here to order SCORE Yours headphones as wedding favors?” I ask.
“You’re funny, but no,” she says. “I’m here because you and I can work out a deal that would be mutually beneficial for everyone concerned—”
“I doubt we have anything to talk about,” I say. “You still haven’t answered my last question. How the hell did you get into my building?”
She lets out a dramatic sigh. “I flew in from Silicon Valley late last week after your big announcement—and those stupid photos of you kissing Nerdy Ari—drowned my announcement.”
Nerdy Ari? How fucking condescending.
“I secured the top celebrity baker to create a show-stopping piece for my wedding, and thanks to you two, the press practically ignored me.”
This woman thinks too highly of herself.
“I’ve been hanging around your building for a couple days now, trying to figure out how to get your attention. It’s amazing what you can get when you give great head. I just love giving blowjobs. Bonus, your new recruit has a pretty big dick. So, it was a win-win. I sucked him off twenty minutes ago, and in return, he snuck me in.”
Someone’s about to get their ass fired—
Wait a minute?
Great head?
Blowjobs?
Isn’t Mariah engaged?
