Talia brought her hand up to her mouth and coughed, “Liar.”
“Am not!” I wailed.
“I thought that was how you met Hunter,” Boomer interjected.
“No,” Tally interrupted. “I introduced Saint to Hunter.”
Boomer nodded slowly. “Right.”
“Will you guys stop talking about my dating life in front of my boyfriend?” I demanded, eyeing Jacob’s angry, flushed face. “He’s about to spontaneously combust. He doesn’t know you well enough to know what assholes you are when one of us gets a new partner.”
“He better get used to us,” Talia said. “He’ll be stuck with us in Virginia and then New York.”
Jacob’s icy eye beam rays suddenly became more powerful. He glared at Talia and snapped, “What?”
My body froze.
A slow grin spread across her face. “We’re going to Virginia with you. I thought a few days staying in a nice hotel on the Potomac River would be fucking awesome.”
Jacob’s stare never left her. “You’re not coming with us.”
“I am,” she argued. “So’s Boom, Jonny, and Sam. It’s already arranged. The boys’ bodyguards want to spend some time at the club before we head to NewYork, and we all need protection from the weirdo, creepy stalker, so I thought, two birds, one stone.”
Jake folded his arms across his chest. “Hendrix won’t agree to it.”
A grin split her big, fat mouth. “Your prez already did.”
Jacob’s face fell, and I thought for a second he was about to cry, but instead, he turned on his heel and stalked out of the room.
Cat watched him go, and she slowly turned her head toward Sam. “See what you did? You never make a man like that jealous. You’re lucky he didn’t take his gun out and shoot you.” She began to mutter under her breath, “Chicos estúpidos.”
Sam’s smirk was all the answer I needed, and my eyes narrowed on him in disbelief. “You did that on purpose.”
“Not on purpose exactly,” he muttered, his stare avoiding mine.
“That’s a shitty thing to do, Sam,” I snapped. “How would you like it if I did that to Jolie?”
Sam shrugged. “It’s over between us. She dumped me.”
My jaw dropped. “So you thought what? That you’d spread the misery? Well, it’s backfired because how the hell can you come to Virginia now? Jacob doesn’t even want to be in the same room as you.”
“Oh, come on,” Boomer interjected. “It’s not like he’s been a virgin in the last couple of years. Gambit’s been telling me about the Speed Demons’ club girls.”
Talia sat up straighter. “Club girls?”
“Club girls?” I echoed.
“Girls who hang around the club and fuck the brothers,” Sam explained.
Bile rose through my throat.
Cat let out a gasp, pulled her rosary from around her neck, and brought it to her mouth.
Talia’s grin widened. “Bikers have groupies, too? Awesome!”
At that moment, the bi-folds opened, and Jonny J wandered in completely naked, with water dripping from his body and his hand covering his junk.
He cleared his throat. “Did I hear somebody mention groupies?”
