I looked at her then.
She was chewing her bottom lip, her brows furrowing in the middle.
“I do.”
“I just don’t want any issues. I know you two have been sleeping together for a while and…” She shrugged. “Ijust don’t want to come between whatever this thing is that you’re doing with him.”
“All we’ve been doing is fucking,” I told her. “It’s not like we’re a couple.” That thought should have stayed in my head. Especially when it came out filled with contempt.
“That’s clearly a touchy subject.”
“You have no idea,” I grumbled, needing to change the subject since Nicky was now making his way back to the table.
“Let’s finish our drinks and then we’ll head back to my hotel,” Nicky offered, taking a large swig from his bottle of beer.
“Are we all sure about this?” I asked Veronica’s question out loud, since I was the one who had originally gone on a date with her, and it was because of me that she met Nicky in the first place.
“Yes, I need to be used for once.” Veronica laughed lightly. “It makes me sound desperate.”
Both Nicky and I chuckled.
“Nah. Just means you’re down for a good time is all.” He winked.
“And I could always use a good night of…being used.” I grinned.
She laughed, shaking her head. “Thank you both for making me feel normal about this.”
“You don’t need to thank us,” Nicky answered for both of us.
Which was true. I was just as new to this as she was,but like her, I could also use a night of passion, pleasure, and pure hard sex.
By the time our drinks were finished, the heaviness from earlier was no longer hovering over us. We walked out of the bar with Nicky’s arm wrapped around Veronica’s shoulders and with me holding her hand. To onlookers, we probably looked like a happy throuple orthree really good friends. Not two guys who’d just met a woman and was about to take her back to a hotel for a hard fuck.
Nicky led the way to his car which was parked a block away. We walked in silence with Veronica between us. I glanced over at him every so often, wondering what he was thinking. This was about to be a show that he was going to run, and I didn’t know how it was going to go. I could take a few guesses, but I knew that nothing could prepare me for what he had in store for both me and Veronica.
It was one thing I liked about him. Every time with him was a new experience. It was far from boring and often kept me on my toes. It was exciting and one of the many reasons I kept going back for more.
When his car came into view, Veronica stopped, forcing us to halt in our steps.
“What’s wrong?” I asked her, wondering if she was having second thoughts all of a sudden.
“What’s going on with you two?” she asked, turning to face us and placing her hands on her hips while staring up at both of us.
A look passed between Nicky and me.
“His brother is my best friend.” A fact I’d already told her but felt the need to say it again because I really had no idea what she was getting at.
“We’ve known each other for years,” Nicky added. “He’s comfortable.” He looked at me then. “You’re comfortable.”
“Which means I don’t come with baggage like I’m sure a lot of people you’ve fucked over the years have had.” I waited, raising an eyebrow. “I’m right, aren’t I?”
“It’s…” He sighed, glancing back at the woman we were about to spend the night with. “It’s complicated.”
She looked directly at me then, probably wanting to see if his comment pissed me off. It did,but I wouldn’tlet either of them know that. When this night was through, I had a decision to make. Continue being used by Nicky or move on from him completely. It would be hard, and I would need some time to think it over, but I couldn’t do this anymore. Presley had been right in saying that Nicky was going to hurt me. Maybe not intentionally but my stupid fucking heart got in the way, and I could no longer handle just being a random fling whenever he decided to come back to town.
The longer Veronica stared at me, the more my heart began to race. She knew it was all an act. How she knew was beyond me but before she could say anything because I really didn’t want to discuss it, I stomped toward her. Catching her jaw in my hand, I tilted her head back. She swallowed hard, her eyes darkening even more at the firm grip I had on her. Turning her head to the side, I leaned down toward her ear.
“I suggest quitting while you’re ahead, baby girl,” I whispered, letting my lips brush along the shell of her ear. “I’m not dominant in the least but I am a very fast learner. One night with Nicky and I can have you on your knees, begging for every inch of my cock to fill every one of your slutty little holes.”
