She nods and wishes me luck. I’m almost inside the elevator when I hear her.
“Maxwell!” Erica screams, causing heads to turn.
The sound of her voice alone causes my head to pound. “Erica.” I greet her coolly.
She storms over to me and before I can step back, she slaps me.
“How dare you! You moved me out like some piece of trash and put me in a shithole condo? After everything I’ve done for you? After everything we’ve been through?” Her voice trembles and tears pool in her eyes. From experience, I know she’s going for sympathy and an audience.
“That’s enough, walk away before you embarrass yourself,” I say through clenched teeth.
“Not until you talk to me. This fight has gone on long enough. Are you still mad about New York?”
“Erica, I thought I made myself clear at my brother’s party. I told you to get out, when you didn’t make a decision, I made it for you. There is and never was an us. I helped you through a tough situation and it was time to move on. This delusional fantasy you built up in your head is over.”
“Max, you can’t be serious. We’re so good together.”
For shits sake! Why can’t this woman take a hint? I look around to see Dana watching us with a sympathetic glare.
“Yes, Erica, I’m very serious. And while we’re on the subject, I’m involved with someone. Someone I care about deeply and that too is serious.”
Color drains from her face and she shakes her head.
“And one more thing, that shithole you’re living in is one of the nicest complexes on this side of Atlanta. If you don’t like it, feel free to move out and get something you can afford. It’s in your dad’s name.”
I push the button for the elevator again and luckily the doors slide open.
“And Erica, if you ever come to these offices again, without an official invite, I’ll have security throw your ass out. Father or not, you won’t cause a disturbance in my workplace.”
As the doors slide closed, her face is still pale but her eyes hard. Almost challenging me.
The whole drive to Stella’s office is a blur. I try to keep focused but I’m pissed. Finally things are going well and that bitch is determined to fuck things up. The truth is, the blame lies on me. I should have handled this woman years ago. It took meeting someone like Stella to finally man-up.
Laughter fills the small office when I let myself in. Instantly, my mood shifts. Stella sees me and runs into my arms kissing over my entire face. Her smile radiates the room as her eyes gleam.
“Before you even ask, we already know what happened. Dana called, worried about you,” she tells me.
“Is this the reason for all the laughing?”
“Not really the reason but what happened afterwards. Edward caught the tail end of your conversation and reamed her out further. He didn’t do it publically, but Dana heard it through his office door. He told her to stop embarrassing herself and especially not in his offices. She left with a very humiliated look.”
“Think she’s finally gone, Max?” Laci asks.
“Jesus, I hope so. I’m pretty sure the reason she showed up is because she realized the locks were changed. Edward made a point to tell me she’s been in New York looking for a new modeling contract the last two weeks. I guess she just realized she can’t get in.”
She nods her head and leaves Stella and me alone.
“Can we get out of here? Let’s take the bike out for a while.”
Her eyes sparkle and turn to honey. She steps back and gathers her things. Once she double checks she has everything she needs for our trip, we walk out hand in hand. Just the warmth of this light touch shoots electricity through me. It feels incredible, and it feels right. More right than anything ever in my life.
“Max!” Stella moans. She squeezes my dick so tight it takes every ounce of will I have not to come right now.
Her naked body writhes under me and I burn the image in my brain. Hearing her scream my name sends a surge of superiority through me.
“Turn over, babe, and hold onto your headboard.” I instantly miss her heat, but watching her follow my instructions gives me a new energy.
I slide easily back in and her moans push my resolve. Gripping her hips, my cock drives into her rough and deep. She shifts slightly and swivels back into me. The curve of her back glistens with sweat and I bend over to lick her.
