They like it. She likes it.

A whore behind closed doors and a princess in the eyes of the world is exactly what a man like Less wants.

I was too immature to even think of it. And yes, as Bella said…too uncompromising. If I didn’t have a fairy tale, I had nothing.

Given his view of relationships and mine, we never did have a chance, did we?

We still don’t.

If someone can shit on something that’s mine, who am I?

I might have been wrong about so many things back then, but the bottom line is, he didn’t care about me as a person. I was just his property.

We were both wrong. I’m going to have to spend a fair bit of time on my psychologist’s couch talking it all out.

But this week, I don’t have to make sense of the past. I can just relax, and enjoy what I’ve been given: a way to find closure.

I clear my throat. “I’ll bear that in mind.”

Patience isn’t in my nature. I’m used to getting what I want right away; if I can’t, I generally bulldoze my way in, just like I did with Ivy all those years ago.

That didn’t work at the time, and given what I know, I sincerely doubt it will now.

So, I had a plan. A great one, prompted by Bella’s candid comments. Step one was to actually calm the fuck down. Give her space.

And I would have stuck to it, too. But then she had to go and look at me likethat.

Bite her lip.

Bat her long lashes and blush when she saw me looking.

I know almost every inch of her body, and I sure as fuck know herI wanna get fuckedsignals.

The plan is still a go, but fuck patience. My taking a step back was enough for her to take a step forward. And it can’t hurt to remind her how good we are together.

Just sitting there, watching her eat, in full knowledge that I’m moments away from bending her over, feeling her beneath me again, is more than I can take. My cock hasn’t been this hard in my entire life.

Caden’s still not over his loss, so he broods through the three courses, occasionally sending pointed glares at Ivy. She answers them with winning smiles.

I shake my head, knowing full well where Cad’s mind is going with that.

I grab my phone when it buzzes in my pocket. The message popping up in our general group isn’t a surprise.

Caden: I should get a turn with her.

Me: Keep dreaming.

Caden: That was my win. Let me hate-fuck her.

Hawk: He would if you were hotter. But we both know I’m the one to pop her threesome cherry.

Me: About that…
