“I just put fifty on you winning,” Lincoln murmured in her ear.
She blinked up at him. “You believe in me?”
He picked her up so they were eye to eye. “I’m never gonna underestimate you, baby.”
Then he kissed her thoroughly before setting her back on her feet, and she couldn’t help how dreamy she found him. Smiling, she turned to look at Kian.
“You ready to lose?” she asked.
“Talking smack already, eh?” Kian asked. “Ladies first, unless you need me to break?”
“Oh, no, I can break,” Vivi beamed. She stepped up to the table and made a mental note of the order the balls were lined up on the table. Taking a breath, she lined up the cue stick dead center on the front ball and narrowed her stance, which helped propel her hips and torso forward on the break stroke.With a loud crack, the balls scattered. She sank a solid and a stripe. Walking around the table, she made calculations in her head which would be a better follow-up and decided to go with solids. After that, she sank ball after ball, even jumping over one of Kian’s stripes in order to sink hers. In a matter of minutes, she was down to the eight ball, called it in the side pocket, lined up the cue ball, and gently sank it.
The entire club had fallen eerily quiet.
“Oh, shit!” Draco laughed, and that broke the dam for everyone else.
Vivi looked up at Lincoln and beamed before looking over at Kian. His mouth hung open in stupefied surprise.
“What the ever-loving fuck did I just see?” he asked.
“I believe you just saw my girl kick your ass. Pay up.”
Kian shook his head, amusement shining in his eyes. He jumped up on the pool table and let out a loud whistle. He held the attention of every single person in the clubhouse.
“My ass was handed to me by this little slip of a girl,” he said loudly. Several people snickered. “She is the best pool player I’ve ever seen or played against.”
“You didn’t even play!”
Kian laughed. “True that. Maybe one day she’ll give me a rematch!”
He faced her, and even high up, he folded his arm across his belly and bowed.

Vivi smothered a yawn as she entered their bedroom, with Lincoln locking up behind him. She kicked off her shoes and started to undress as she headed to the bathroom.
“I’m gonna grab a quick shower,” she said.
A moment later, he scooped her up and she emitted a little squeal. The bathroom wasn’t that large to begin with, and with both of them now in it, it was a tiny closet.
“What are you doing?” she asked breathlessly, and wrapped her arms around his shoulders.
“Gonna have my way with a beautiful pool shark. Where did you learn those mad skills, beautiful?”
“You know how there are people who have never played an instrument in their life, but sit in front of a piano and can immediately pound out Mozart?”
“You mean, like a savant?”
“Well, I’m kinda like that with pool. I don’t know why or how, but the first time Cross played with me, I looked at the all the balls and I could see the trajectory of each one. And then I lined up the cue ball and they all went where I was aiming.” She shrugged. “I can’t explain it.”
“You are amazing,” he praised. He let her legs go but still held her up against his body with an arm wrapped around her waist. “Now, I’m gonna give you a good dicking.”
“Oh, are you now?”
With his free arm, he turned on the shower and adjusted the water to the right temperature. Only then did he release her enough so she slid down his body. Slowly, he began to take her clothes off, and she did the same to him. Once their clothes lay at their feet, he bent his head to capture her lips with his as he maneuvered them into the shower.
“Turn around, place your hands against the tile, and spread your legs,” he murmured into her ear.
