CHAPTER 15
JUST CALL ME JOHNNY 5, BECAUSE I’M SHORT CIRCUITING
JASPER
I’m speechless for the second time tonight.
That’s a lie. I’ve been battling with my mind-mouth connection all goddamn day. Typically, I have zero filter saying whatever comes to mind, but today every time anyone says anything even partially related to sex, I have a full body malfunction.
Wade said double dare.
I’ve never known this man to take a risk on anything in his life. He’s cautious to a fault and annoyingly strategic in everything he does.
So, double dare, yeah…I’m fucking speechless. And by the look on Major’s face, he’s just as stunned as I am.
At least I know I’m not hearing things.
My mind can’t help but spiral, thinking of all the things I could do if he would have said that to me. I would have challenged him for a repeat of what happened in his room. No, I would force him to tell me what he was visualizing when hesaidthat’s it, both of you take my cock, so I could recreate that scenario for him in real life.
“Oh.” Abby’s surprise mirrors all of ours as she looks over at Major, then peers over her shoulder back at me.
I wish I knew her better so I could predict what’s going to happen next. She must know that all of us are open to whatever might happen next, and she has every single man in this room at her mercy. But, I have no idea if she’s a risk taker or a play-it-safe kind of girl, and the unknown is killing me.
And because my brain isn’t functioning with basic vocabulary today, I silently respond with a tight-lipped smile and an idiotic look on my face.
She huffs out a light chuckle before biting the corner of her lip, then turns her gaze back to Wade.
“Are you sure? No take backs,” she says playfully.
Wade chews on the inside of his cheek, his eyes shift briefly in my direction before locking back on hers. He contemplates for less time than I expect him to before nodding. “Oh, I’m sure, sweetheart.”
CHAPTER 16
THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT SCATTERGORIES
MAJOR
What in the everloving hell is happening?
We were supposed to be playing Scrabble or Monopoly or some other boring archaic board game, not the Truth or Dare kissing game with the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever laid my eyes on with three times more testosterone than necessary.
God, I’m too old for this shit.
Of course, I’m saying that to myself but I’m enjoying every minute of watching this unfold.
The sexual tension between Wade and Jasper has always been there. I’ve felt it even if those two masked it in the form of hatred. But now, adding Abby into the mix, well that’s like adding fuel to an already burning inferno.
And I have no idea how to respond to the guys right now. Because Truth or Dare Wade is nothing like the man I normally know. It’s like he’s hijacked the confidence that Jasper usually has, leaving Jasper confused and distorted.
My gaze trails over to the lost man as he sits on the couch opposite Wade and Abby. His shaggy blonde hair is disheveledfrom when Abby kissed him, gripping onto his scalp like she never wanted to let him go. But also, because he keeps running his hand through it, as if that’s a nervous tick I’ve never seen him have.
He’s beyond flustered, that much is obvious. I can’t say I don’t relate.
Watching Abby all day as she recorded videos of herself, and all of us, for her social media account was surprisingly a tease I didn’t know I would enjoy. But seeing her interact with the guys, pulling out sides of them I’ve never seen before and now these two mind-blowing, life-altering kisses. Yeah, I feel like a giddy teenager and a born-again man going through sexual rebirth at the same time.
I’m battling with myself to remain calm and maintain the control that I typically have in most situations. But let’s face it, none of this is like any situation I would have imagined myself in. Especially with a woman, almost twenty years younger than me and with both of the guys I lean on the most professionally.
This is a bad idea. This is a really bad idea.
