“What about your guests?” I ask, taking a quick look around. There’s not a large crowd here. Then again, this house is massive. They could all be in a ballroom somewhere. We’ve only made it to the grand foyer.
Jasmine shrugs. “I don’t care if they stay. I have enough security here to make sure nothing gets stolen. And Lord knows a riot isn’t going to break out with this laid-back crowd. Most of them are my father’s friends anyway. Any chance he gets to show off to them, he takes advantage of.” She snaps her fingers. “Let me go get my purse and cell.”
Alexa turns to face me after they walk away. “We won’t stay out late.”
I shrug. “It’s no big deal. I won’t be drinking much tonight.”
The girls return, and we walk out the front double doors, down the steps, and to the right. I almost trip over my heels when I see the black Mercedes Maybach G650. I’ve always wanted one. When Alexa opens the back door for me, I slide in and sink into the leather, biting my lip so I don’t groan at the softness.
I wonder what this chick does for a living. The size of her house… the cars… it has to be Daddy’s money, right? I’m twenty-two, and she can’t be much older than me. She did say that he likes to show off.
The remix of “Roses” by SAINt JHN blares through the speakers as she pulls out of the driveway.
“Where are we going?” Emilee asks from the passenger seat.
Jasmine shrugs. “Wherever.”
The music comes to a stop as she receives a text message. Her Bluetooth speaks to us. “You have an incoming message fromBig Daddy Dick. Landing early tomorrow morning. You going to be home?”
Emilee laughs. “Who the fuck is Big Daddy Dick?”
Jasmine looks over at her and smiles. “No one you know.” She grabs her cell phone from the cup holder and hands it to Emilee. “Text him back.”
“What do you want me to say?” She looks down at the phone.
“Say, I’ll snort two lines of birth control just for you, Daddy.”
Emilee frowns. “But you’re on the shot.”
“Dear Lord.” Jasmine jerks the phone from her hands and tosses it to the back. It lands on my lap. “Text the man, please?” she asks, looking at me in her rearview mirror.
Nodding, I open the text and do as she asks. “Done,” I tell her.
“Thank you,” she says.
“Is this some guy you fuck for free?” Emilee asks.
My eyes widen at that question. What the hell does that mean?
Jasmine laughs. “Honey, I’d pay to fuck this one. He’s that good.”
I glance over at Alexa, and she just shrugs. I’ve never heard her speak of these girls before, so I know she’s not close to them.
Jasmine’s Bluetooth picks up again. “You have an incoming message fromBig Daddy Dick.You better meet me at the front doors on your knees, wearing nothing but your red heels.”

“WAKE UP.”
I hear my brother’s voice far away and ignore it.
But then a hand slaps my face, and I sit straight up. “Huh?”
“We’re here,” Bones growls, standing over me.
After I took the pills in the bathroom, I made my way to his bedroom in the back and passed out. Decided to sleep as much of the flight as I could.
