She nods, and I answer the call. “Who’s this?”

“You know who the fuck it is.” I grin ear to ear. “You aren’t going to marry her,” he barks.

My fingertips travel up and down her back. I look her right in the eye as I respond. “I have every intention of making Jordan my wife.” It’s the truth. I’m all in with her.

She stills, and I hold the phone away slightly. “Don’t stop.”

Her hips gyrate again, and I smile, biting my lip.How did I ever get so lucky?

“That’s why I’m calling. I have an offer to make you,” he says, calmer now.

My eyebrows shoot up. “What kind of offer?”

“Name a price.”

He wants tobuyher back from me?I laugh incredulously. I’m disgusted by him for even suggesting such a thing. “She doesn’t have one.”

“Yes, she does. You just haven’t thought of a high enough number yet.”

“There’s no number,” I grit out. It makes me angrier that he’s arguing. “You had your chance and you fucked up. You have no clue how to treat women, certainly not one of her caliber. She’s done with you.”

“I gave her everything!”

“You gave her bruises and a fucked-up sense of self-worth! And you should thank Jordan that I haven’t killed you yet, because I promise, she’s the only thing standing in my way.”

I take a deep breath, he will not rattle me. I smile and pull the phone from my ear and hit speakerphone.

“Do you seriously think I’m going to step aside and let you eat my lunch?” he says.

“I already have... I can still taste her on my tongue.God, she’s sweet.” I groan and slide a finger under her clit. Her eyebrows soften as she whimpers. “You can’t put a price on happiness.”

“You can, actually.”

Jordan’s eyes twinkle with rage when she realizes the nature of his call. “Then, tell me, Bryan... why are you still sofuckingmiserable?” she interrupts. “The best thing you ever did was fuck my best friend, the best thing I ever did was fuck yours. The only difference is I love Camden. You only love yourself, and that’s why you’ll end up alone. When are you going to realize that everyone in your life is simply putting up with you?”

She’s hot when she’s angry.

Her hips snap, and she’s right on the edge. I smirk. She’s getting off on taking back her power from him. I set the phone on my chest and clutch her throat with one hand.

“That’s it, Sunshine. Tell him how good I make you feel.” I rub her clit faster, and her eyelashes flutter as she rocks into me, her voice hitches.

“You lost, man. It’s over,” I say. “Eyes, Jordan...” She blinks open and her body clenches.Christ.My smile stretches ear to ear. “That’s my girl.”

With hands planted on my chest, she rolls her hips as she comes. Her breathy cry is so fucking sexy. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think she was putting on a show, but the sounds she makes when she orgasms are this sensual every time.

“That’s what it sounds like when she comes. Thought you’d want to hear it since you never got to experience it yourself.”

“Both of you can go to hell.”

“Wait, before you go, I want to give my sincere thanks for giving me the opportunity to show her how priceless she is.” I smile. “But we need some privacy while we get settled, we have a lot of planning to do—you know how it is.”

“You’re going to regret the day you ever left me.”

“No, Bryan,” she says, her voice eerily calm. “You’re going to regret the day you ever underestimated me.” She gazes at her new manicure and sighs. “I’m not to be trifled with.”

“You’re a—” I cut him off before he insults my queen.

“Say goodbye, Jordan,” I tell her.
