“My ex was an asshole but not in a ‘touch my wife and die’ kind of way. He was just a prick and will always be one.” Ronny pulled her long hair over one shoulder, giving me a shrug. “As long as he’s good to the kids, I don’t really care how he treats me anymore.”
“That’s fair.” The hairs on my nape stood on end. Looking around the room, I found Nicky standing at the entrance, talking to the hostess. My mouth dried that he was already there. “He’s here.”
Veronica sat up straighter, following my line of sight. “Oh my. He’s hot.”
“You should see him naked,” I blurted.
“I hope to.”
My head whipped around.
She winked. “I hope to see you naked too.”
My eyebrows rose. “Really?”
“I told you I wanted some fun. Nothing serious. I don’t want a relationship, but I need to be used for one night.” She pointed a long finger in my direction. “I think you could use the same thing.”
I swallowed hard.
I had no idea what to say to that but thankfully, I didn’t have to say anything because Nicky saw us and came up to our table.
“Noah.”
That single bark of my name always got to me. My blood simmered through my veins and my stomach clenched with desire for this fucker who stole my heart years ago.
I moved over in the booth, making room for Nicky to sit beside me.
“Hello,” he greeted Veronica.
“Hi.” She grinned. “I’m Veronica.”
“Nicolai but my friends call me Nicky.” He cupped my knee, giving it a squeeze. “Hello, Noah.”
I looked at him then. “Hi.”
He winked.
He was wearing a dark blue suit that hugged every inch of his hard body and I swore he just got hotter and hotter as time went on.
“So how did you two meet?” he asked, pulling his hand from my knee and signaling the waitress over. He ordered himself a scotch on the rocks, another martini for Veronica, and a beer for me.
“We met on a dating app. Started chatting a few weeks ago and met for the first time tonight,” Veronica explained. “I’m divorced, mother of two small children, and just wanted to meet someone I could get along with.Not looking for any commitments, no strings, no damn relationship.” She rolled her eyes. “Been there, done that.”
“So, you want to be fucked. Is that it?”
I coughed at Nicky’s vulgar question.
“Yes.” Veronica sat forward, staring intently at Nicky. “Maybe a few times but definitely once at least.”
“Sounds like a reasonable request.” Nicky paused when the waitress brought over our drinks.
I quickly ordered a round of waters for us because I didn’t need something to happen where Veronica regretted it. Nicky was blunt and forthcoming when it came to sex. He often told me stories of his sexual exploits. I was left feeling jealous most of the time and I knew he did that on purpose. He enjoyed making me jealous because it made the sex between us that much hotter and more intense. I wasn’t overly dominant in bed but when he told me sexual experiences in great detail, I often attacked him.
“I thought so too.” Veronica looked between us both. “When was the last time you two saw each other?”
“Two months ago,” I answered, shifting in my seat.
“Stop wiggling, Noah, or I’ll give you something to squirm about.” Nicky’s rough demand made my cock leak. Fuck this man and what he did to me.
