“Sounds like your man does.”

“If he knows anything, he won’t say a word. I would stake my life on it.”

She was so sincere, I almost believed her. Almost. But the problem with believing people who were sincere is that it got your world fucked up.

“Well, let’s hope you’re right.”

“I am,” she said. “So, now that that’s out of the way…”

I shook my head. “We’re not going to do this.”

She shrugged. “Why not?”

“Because it’s not a good idea, Lyric.”

“I disagree. I think it’s a great idea, Lincoln.” She rose to her feet and hopped toward me. I sighed and closed the distance between us, reaching for her so she didn’t fall. “It’s just sex, Doom. A little fun. Two gorgeous people in the prime of their life gettin’ a little. We can end it anytime. No harm, no foul.”

“Don’t want to hurt you, Lyric.”

“Slowly, but, yes.” I nodded toward the desk. “Bring the tequila.”

“Is that a good idea?”

“I’ve only had Tylenol today, so it’s a very good idea.”

He grinned, handing me my crutches, then grabbing the bottle of tequila and my bag. “We’ll go slow.”

“Okay, but only if you promise we’ll go fast later.”

He studied me for a second. “You’re gonna be a problem, aren’t you?”

“If you’re lucky, yes.”
