“Daniels…”

“Sorry. I’ll stop elevating your hopes.”

His brain started to show him an image of Raina above him, her knees on his pillow as he pulled one of those strings to the side, but he shoved it away. Images like those, he reserved for when he was alone and wanted to torture himself, seeing as how he would only ever taste her in his mind.

“Are there…more?”

“Yep.” Delilah scrolled. “Here’s a different one. This looks more like bridal lingerie.”

Mrs. Saraci was a knockout in white lace with pink ribbons. Something like this would have been perfect for their wedding night. He would have enjoyed watching her breasts jump in those too-small cups as he drove his hips into hers.

“…that she wasn’t expecting,” Delilah finished.

“What?”

“You didn’t hear a word I said, did you?”

“What word?”

She laughed and scrolled. The following image brought a completely different reaction.

“Who the fuck is this?”

Delilah peered into his face. “Dr. S, you just used the F-word in front of a student.”

“Former student,” he corrected. “Plus, we’re family. It’s fine.”

“We’re what?”

“Who is this, Daniels?”

She stretched the image, zooming in on the male model’s face. “Maxton Briggs, I think. She told me she was doing a shoot with Layla Briggs’ cousin. You know, the socialite? I’ve never heard of him, but it’s hard to forget a name like ‘Maxton.’”

“Where in Foggy Bottom is this shoot?” He stood, handing her the phone. “Do you have the address?”

“Dr. S, you can’t be thinking of going down there.”

“I’m not ‘thinking’ of it.”

“Aren’t you busy?”

“Not too busy for this.”

“Dr. S, ask her to dinner or something first. You can’t go barging onto the set because you don’t like her doing a photoshoot with a man.”

He pointed to her phone. “That isn’t ‘a photoshoot with a man.’ His tongue was less than three inches from her…private area.”

“Now, is when you censor yourself?”

Fuckwas tame compared topussy.At least in his book. He and Khalid had started experimenting with curse words in middle school; however, pussy made him blush until the first time he put his face in one.

“Daniels, the address. I know you have it.”

“For emergencies,” she said.

“This is an emergency.”

“Dr. S, this won’t make Raina amenable to you. You’re not her husband. Even then, you’d be free to be upset about it, but you still can’t go down there guns blazing.”
