“Really, this is good right here.” Skyler unbuckled his seat belt as I slowed the SUV to a stop.
I knew there was only so much we could do to push him to tell us which place was his. We’d already managed to strong arm him into sitting with us after our session and to let us take him home. Much more pushing and I was afraid he’d steer clear of us. And I didn’t want to risk losing him as a play partner, for mine and Spencer’s sake.
“Thanks for playing tonight and for the ride home.”
“We had a great time,” Spencer said.
“Yeah, we’ll be in touch this week,” I said. I caught a glimpse of Skyler pulling his hood up over his beanie as I looked in the rearview mirror to make sure there weren’t any cars coming.
“I will anxiously await your text. Later, guys.” Skyler hopped out of the Porsche and quickly closed the door before dashing between two parked cars and onto the sidewalk.
A car honked its horn behind me, quickly drawing my attention to the road.
“Fuck, alright already. Damn,” I mumbled, and took my foot off the brake to ease forward.
“Impatient fuck,” Spencer murmured.
“Did you see which one he went into?” I asked. I glanced at the GPS on the dash to see that we were now past the ending destination checkered flag.
“I’m not sure. The rain is coming down in sheets. But we at least have his address.”
Our drive home took much longer than it should have due to the rain. Spencer had his cell phone out and had been quiet most of the way.
“What are you looking at?” I finally asked.
“I was doing some searches on the address to see who he’s renting from. It belongs to a property management company.”
Yeah, Spencer was borderline obsessed already.

Iwas already up and working on my second cup of coffee by the time West reached the kitchen. Between banging the hell out of him twice last night, I hadn’t slept much. Despite the lack of sleep, I was full of energy and planned on digging around for info on Skyler. I was eager to find everything I could about him. I just didn’t want West to know it yet.
Playing at Edge last night with Skyler had invigorated me, and it got West excited and energized again too. Both of us had nearly lost hope of ever finding a solid third.
“I’m surprised you’re not exhausted after last night,” West said as he set his coffee tumbler under the spout of the coffee maker and tossed a pod into the machine. I laughed and then took a sip of coffee from my mug.
“What are you doing today?” I asked, even though I knew he had something to do for work.
“Just some little stuff. I’m hoping to be home by nine tonight. What’s your schedule today?”
“I have a small pile of accounts to look into for Michael.”
“Have fun with that.” West snapped the lid on his coffee tumbler and walked toward me. “I’ll see you tonight.” He grabbed my ass and said, “Maybe tonight I’ll fuck the hell out of you and make you feel it tomorrow.”
West headed toward the garage as I hollered, “Are you feeling it today?”
“Yes, I am.” He hadn’t turned around but stretched his arm upward and flipped me off.
Once I got the notification that the garage door had closed, I headed to my home office to begin my digging. While I waited for the laptop to wake up, I sipped on my coffee and flipped to a blank page of my steno pad.
“Let’s find out some details about you, Skyler,” I said under my breath. I took one more sip from my mug and set it on the desk along with my phone.
First, let’s get your last name.
I started with getting into Edge’s system that housed the member profiles to grab Skyler’s last name. I wasn’t surprised that the security was bare bones on Edge’s site, and within moments I was in the database, scrolling through the photos of members. The butterflies fluttered around in my stomach the second I found Skyler’s picture.
