“I’m fine. You can go back to your friends. I was just about to find a movie to watch.”

He leaned forward and picked up the remote control from the coffee table. “Sounds good. What do you want to watch?”

I turned my head to look at him. “You don’t have to stay up here. I’m fine. Just tired.”

He ignored me, turning on the television and leaning back. “It’s been a busy day. We need some comedy.”

“King,” I said, making him look at me.

His eyes met mine this time. “Yes?”

I could do this. Be a big girl. Act like a grown-ass woman. “I am okay. You do not have to babysit me. I acted weird downstairs. I’m sorry about that. It won’t happen again.” That was as good as it was going to get. I couldn’t lay it out there better than that.

“Not here to babysit you, sweets. Came up here to hang out with you. I prefer your company. Do you want food? I’m getting fucking hungry. I can call up to the main house and get Minna to send us something down here.”

He was back to the food thing. How frustrating. I was giving him an out, and he wasn’t taking it.

“I don’t think that because we had sex that we are…are…anything more than friends. I also know we aren’t in some commitment, and you…we can have sex with other people.”

He stopped scanning through Netflix and swung his gaze back to me. “You have someone else you’re thinking of fucking, sweets?”

I shook my head. “No. But that isn’t the point I was trying to make.”

“So, your point is that you acted a little territorial down there, and you didn’t mean to. You won’t do it again. We are friends who fuck. Really well. Olympic-worthy fucking.”

Olympic-worthy? That was a good thing. Right? Yes, I was sure it was.

“Yes, I think that was my point,” I agreed.

He stretched his arm out behind me on the back of the sofa and turned his body slightly toward me. “We are friends. And if you fuck someone else, I’ll kill him.”

A surprised laugh burst from me as I stared at him. Was he serious?

“You look shocked, sweets,” he drawled.

I nodded my head several times. “That’s not exactly fair.”

He narrowed his eyes. “What?”

He was serious. He didn’t see how one-sided this was even if I had no plans on having sex with one of his friends or family or whatever.

“You can have sex with…those women down there, but I am only supposed to have sex with you?”

He reached over and ran a knuckle over my lips, then down my neck. “Sweets, if we’re fucking, I don’t need to fuck anyone else. You’re keeping me real damn sated. Am I not doing the same for you?”

I shifted and dropped my focus to my lap. “Yes, you are.”

“Good. Then, that’s settled. We are friends who fuck. A lot. We don’t need to fuck anyone else while we have this setup.”

I nodded, glancing back at him.

His hand clamped over my shoulder and pulled me against him. “Finally. Now, pick a movie, and I’ll call for food. Then, we can fuck again. I want to eat your pussy in the shower.”

Was there a woman who would turn that down?

We didn’t skip Sunday breakfast the next morning and it was more intimidating this time than it had been the first time. Even though I didn’t think King had told anyone we were having sex, I just felt like they all might think we were. Since we were sleeping in the same room. That, and I felt as if it was written all over my face when they looked at me. King didn’t sit beside me, which I wasn’t sure if I should take personally or be thankful. It made us look less…uh…affectionate maybe?

“Why can’t I sit in here beside Rumor?” Birdie asked, standing at the head of the table beside Maeme with her hands on her hips.
