Viper’s hair is still wet, drops of water falling on his skin and making its way down his muscles, which are cut to perfection. He even has the V, and his dick… I see every ridge through his pants. My mouth waters. I’m a pooling mess of want. “You,” I hiss at him, “suck!” I grab a pillow and throw it at him, which he catches, grinning.
“You’re so sexy when you’re mad!” The amusement in his voice makes me narrow my eyes at him.
“I hate you!”
His grin intensifies. “No, wifey… You love me!”
I scowl. “You wait! I’ll get you back!” A mix of a promise and a threat cut through my tone. I need to get away from him before I do something like attack him. I stand and stomp out of the room. “Evil, evil man,” I mutter under my breath.
I wander downstairs, needing to get my mind off him. I can hear the sweet butts’ voices in the kitchen. Trixie is getting pizza out of the oven while Mercedez is putting chicken pieces on a large serving tray. Dolly is in the pantry, while Candy is leaning against the kitchen island, arms crossed over her chest.
“I can’t wait until she leaves,” Candy whinges. “She” I gather is referring to me, so I take a few steps back so I’m out of their view.
There’s a long sigh. “Give it a break already,” Mercedez says. “At this rate, I’ll be glad when she leaves so I don’t have to listen to you bitching all day.”
“I like her,” Trixie adds. “Her lively personality is just what we need here, and she challenges Viper. I think she’s exactly what he needs.” I clutch my chest.
“You’re supposed to be on my side!” Candy’s voice is loud.
Trixie replies, “I’m not on anyone’s side. I’m just saying what I think.”
I peek around the corner to see Dolly walking out with napkins. “Sophie’s beautiful; I’m enjoying having her here just to look at.”
I can’t stop the chuckle that falls from my mouth. All the women’s heads turn to me. A blush creeps up Dolly’s cheeks.
“Hello,” I say in a chirpy voice as I walk toward them.
“Hello,” Trixie and Mercedez answer back.
I lean over and reach in front of Candy to grab an apple from the fruit bowl. The apple crunches as I take a bite out of it. She narrows her eyes at me. There’s silence until I finish chewing and swallow.
“Viper’s a married man now… It’s time you moved on.”
Her face turns red. She turns on her heels and leaves.
I turn to Dolly. “You’re beautiful too, babe.”
Her lips curve into a broad smile. I make my way outside and decide I need a girl’s day, but with Zara, Ava, and Elena. I call Zara first to ensure they have people to cover for them at the charity tomorrow. Then I organize a spa treatment for all of us. I study my chipped fingernails. I wouldn’t mind a massage, a hair wash and blow-dry, and a manicure and pedicure, so I go about making these appointments for us at my family’s resort.

“So,where is this place you want to go?” Rage asks from the driver’s side.
“The spa. It’s at the Crown Resort, which is by the beach on the main road.”
He nods.
“I’m excited,” Elena says. She’s sitting next to Zara and behind Ava in the back seat.
“How did you get roped into playing chaperone?” I ask Rage.
“The men are extra cautious with their ol’ ladies, and I’m the lowest-ranking member.”
I reach forward and run my fingers through his lush, soft hair. He pulls away from me.
