“So?” Nick says.
I shoot him ajust let it golook. He purses his lips and nods. “Are you okay?” I smile up at my boyfriend and nod. He places a chaste kiss on my lips.
“Here.” I pull out of Chris’s hold to face my brother. I grab my phone from him and tuck it into my coat pocket. “Look,” he says, then sighs and shoves his hands into his coat pockets. “I lied, my car isn’t broken down. I came here to try and work things out but…”
I recoil. “Why the fuck did you need my phone?” I snap.
He shrugs. “Looks like we aren’t so different after all, brother.” The cocky lilt to his voice puts me on edge.
“The fuck is that supposed to mean?” Chris grits out from behind me.
“Nothing at all. Dad will be pleased to know he has nothing to worry about with this merger now. See you soon,brother.”
I haven’t been able to shake the feeling my brother is up to something for days. I saw him Monday and it’s Friday now. The meeting for the merger is next week and I have let my workload fall onto Holly, who is more up to date with things than I am.
She’s the trump card.
“Hey, Saint?” I look across the conference room table to Holly. She looks worried.
“Yeah?”
“I’m not trying to overstep.” I want to scoff, she has no idea I have been overstepping inside her every damn night for weeks. “But, are you okay?”
The fact she even noticed something was off with me has my chest tightening and warmth flowing through me. “Ah, yeah. I’m good. Just got a lot on my mind.”
She nods and smiles but I can tell she doesn’t believe me. “If you want to talk, I’m free… Well, I’m free during work hours.” Her sheepish smile and the way she ducks her head down has me wanting to push her.
“So, does that mean if I asked you out for a drink tonight you would turn me down?” When she snaps her head up, shock is plastered across her face. I know for a fact she is trying to figure out a way to get out of it since she was ordered by us two weeks ago to head straight home after work every night.
She nibbles on her bottom lip. “I mean… I guess I could.” Delight spurs to life inside me, knowing that I’ll get to punish her ass tonight for disobeying our orders.
“Perfect, we’ll head out straight after we finish here.” I grab my phone off the table and shootNick and Chris a text.
Me - Snowflake just agreed to have drinks with me after work
My Boo - Is that right…
Me - Don’t be jealous, baby, you’re coming with me!
My Boo - You’ll be sucking my dick on the car ride to her place
Nick - Her ass is getting fucking punished tonight! I want her chained and gagged. The filthy whore will be begging for mercy by the time we’re done with her.
My cock is rock fucking hard and I still have two hours left on the clock before we’re finished for the day!
CHAPTER THIRTEEN
HOLLY
Leaving work today I’m a nervous wreck.
I shouldn’t be, but I can’t help it.
Over the past few weeks I have spent every night with my masked men, trying new things, experimenting. It’s been the best time of my life. I don’t want it to end, but I’m also at the point where the secrecy is getting to me. My relationship with them isn’t just casual anymore, I have feelings involved now and I’m terrified of that fact.
“You okay?” Saint asks as we enter the bar. I smile and nod but the pinched look on his face tells me he isn’t buying what I’m selling. He leads us toward the back of the crowded bar. When I spot the guys waiting for us in the back, my smile isn’t forced anymore. Nick and Chris grin back at me as I take a seat beside Nick.
“I didn’t expect you to join us tonight,” Nick says.
