  “I wanted to be there when you two first met! What did you think? Was it love at first sight?”

  “I saw him alright, and promptly shut him down. He was exactly like the guy you’ve been emailing and texting me about, I want no part of it.” Heather rolls her eyes at my admission.

  “Addy, you said you would give him a chance! You promised.” She stomps her foot like a two-year-old who didn’t get her way. “You at least thought he was hot right?”

  I immediately begin to blush just thinking about his amazing body. “He was cute,” I mumble hoping she will drop the subject all together. Of course, I have no such luck because she shrieks in response.

  “You’ve got to be kidding me, Addy! Did you not see that fine piece of man meat? How are you still coherent?”

  “If you want him so badly, why don’t you let him in your pants then?” I respond. He probably flirts with anything that breathes and has tits. Nothing special about me other than I am the new conquest on the block.

  “It’s nothing like that Addy. Don’t get me wrong, he is sex on a stick. However, I have no desire to have sex with my brother.”

  “You don’t have a brother,” I say with a roll of my eyes as I walk past her into the kitchen. I can tell by the look in her eyes that I am going to need coffee for this conversation. She has that look, I hate that look. It means she is plotting something and usually, it’s something that I am not going to like.

  “What are you thinking?”

  “I think your vag has cobwebs, a good fuck might do you good.”

  “It hasn’t been that long.” Heather raises an eyebrow as she walks around the island to pour her own cup of coffee.

  “Okay, who was the last person you had sex with.” I open my mouth to answer. “Not so fast! I’m talking about mind-blowing, you couldn’t walk the next day kind of sex,” she says as she takes a sip of liquid gold.

  The last statement made me pause. I don’t know if I’ve ever had mind-blowing sex. I barely even orgasm while having sex let alone get to have a mind-blowing one. Usually, it is a fake orgasm, so he rolls off me, and then I take care of myself once he leaves or passes out.

  “I knew it! Bitch, you need to get laid, and Cole is the man to do it. No strings just mind-blowing sex,” Heather says as she grabs my mug to refill it with coffee, I can never have too much.

  “It’s the no strings part that scares me. I don’t do unattached very well. Once sex is involved, it will probably be worse, especially if it’s the mind-blowing kind.”

  Heather pauses to think as I take a sip of my coffee. “I got it, we will get you wasted. I can call Cole and get the gang together. A night of partying is hard to resist. I’m sure there will be someone to strike your fancy.”

  “Damn it, you make it sound like we are going to a stud farm or something.”

  “What? Guys do this shit all the time. They make plans on who gets what chick and who takes the friend. We are taking back the power for females everywhere.”

  Heather and her warped sense of logic aren’t wrong. A night out would be nice, I just got done with finals and graduation as well as this shit with my parents. Getting trashed and hanging out would be fun, if I get laid in the process, I call that a bonus.

  Chapter 5

  COLE

  “Finish up so we can get going, I want to try and catch Addison again,” I say to Delilah as we head back toward her house. I made sure to drop Sampson and Felicity off first. As I make my way up the Middleton’s driveway, I notice the curtains in the front window swing back into place. Someone was waiting for me. I make it to the door just as it swings open,

  “Did you miss me?” I ask with a raised eyebrow

  “In your dreams. I just happened to be passing by and saw you two heading up the driveway.” Addison is trying desperately not to check me out and failing miserably. I hand over Delilah’s leash as Heather comes skidding around the corner.

  “I wasn’t going to miss you a second time.” We all chuckle in response.

  “What can I do for you, lovely?” I know I’m laying it on kind of thick, but if I can piss Addison off enough, I may be able to get her number out of this at least. My best friend knows all my tricks, thankfully she continues to play along.

  “Addy and I are headed out later tonight to celebrate her graduation. Why don’t you join us?” Heather responds with that look in her eyes, she’s up to something. As always, I’m happy to play along. This is a win-win proposition for me. Either way, I’m going to get laid, although I would prefer it be Addison than a random bar bunny.

  “I’m sure Cole has better things to do,” Addy cuts in.

  “Are you afraid to be seen in public with the ‘help’ princess?”

  I can see fire ignite in Addy’s eyes, I can’t decide if I want to fuck her or continue to piss her off. Both are so much fun, the prior will be glorious if she doesn’t kill me first.

  “I was trying to politely say that you may have prior plans, meaning you would rather do whatever it is you do when you’re not working.”

  I can’t help but lean forward on the door frame, getting closer to those kissable lips. “I can’t think of anything better than spending time with you, Addy,” I whisper before standing back up to my full height.

  I watch the blush creep across her cheeks and down her neck, my thoughts are interrupted by Heather’s giggle. “Well, that’s settled. Meet us at Noble Experiment at seven.” She gives my chest a shove before shutting the door in my face.

  I knew she was plotting something, I don’t mind. I head back to my car and head to the office to confirm my walks for the evening.

  Just as I’m locking up the office for the night, I grab my cell and head for my car, dialing my partner in crime. I climb in, the phone only rings once before she answers, “I’m busy trying to get you laid, what can I do for you?”

  “Life would be easier if we would just fall in love with each other, you know this right?” I say with a chuckle in my voice.

  “I am fully aware of this, but you aren’t my personal brand of sexy. Your way prettier than me. So again, what do you want?” Her snarky attitude would usually cause me to hang up, but she sounds stressed out, just why she is stressed is beyond me.

  “He’s working tonight, isn’t he?” I ask.

  “Fuck you! This isn’t about me, it's about you. However, the answer is yes.”

  Heather has been in love with Wyatt Chambers since we all met Freshman year at San Diego Mesa. She has no problem telling people like it is unless they are Wyatt. Lucky for her, he is also one of my best friends and has a serious hard-on for her. I may have to put on my own cupid wings tonight as well.

  “When are you going to listen to me, he is head over heels for you. If you just show some tits and cut the bitch attitude for two seconds, you two would be living happily ever after already.”

  I’m met with nothing but silence. I’m treading on thin ice, but someone needs to push her. She is always in everyone else’s business, if she keeps this up she will never find her happily ever after.

  “Again, not about me, about you. What the fuck did you want, or I’m hanging up. It takes time to look this good.”

  Obviously, I am two seconds from ruining my chances with Addison. “Fine. I just want to know what my chances are.”

  “What is this? My baby boy wants to grow up and keep his dick in his pants. Halleluiah! Thank you, sweet baby Jesus!” I can hear her dancing around her room.

  I pinch the bridge of my nose. “I said no such thing! Don’t get your hopes up.”

  “Whatever you say, Cole. Just be the man we both know is under the asshole you let everyone see. I say if you can be that guy, your chances are damn near perfect.”

  “Enough of this mushy shit, I have to shower. I smell like a dog,” I say as I pull into my assigned parking spot.

  “I checked to make sure your stalker wasn’t around; the coast is clear. Be sure to wear what I put out for you on the bed. Oh, and Addy’s fa
vorite color is royal blue.”

  “Yes, Mother.” I chuckle as I hang up the phone.

  Chapter 6

  ADDISON

  “Girl, if I were into chicks I’d fuck you,” Heather shouts as she struts past me into the closet. I still can’t believe she talked me into wearing this. My mousy brown hair is in loose curls waving slightly past my naked shoulders. I borrowed a bright red off the shoulder A-line dress, hugging my curves in all the right places. Finishing off the outfit with my black moto jacket and leather ankle boots. You can dress me up, but I’m going to be me no matter what.

  “Found it! The perfect final touch,” Heather shouts before exiting her walk-in closet. She walks behind me, draping a necklace made of interlocking maple leaves across my neck.

  “This is gorgeous,” I whisper.

  “Of course it is, but mostly because you’re wearing it.” Giving me a wink, she heads back into the closet to finish off her own outfit.

  “We are some sexy bitches! Even if it isn’t by Cole, we are getting you laid tonight.”

  Heather’s outfit is a little more understated but nothing short of gorgeous. She has on a sleeveless royal blue circle dress with a lace overlay. Completing the outfit with a tan leather belt, jean jacket, and brown cowboy boots. Her long red hair is pinned back on one side with a beautiful comb covered in blue sapphires.

  “We gotta motor or we’ll miss our Uber,” Heather says after taking one last look in the mirror to make sure everything is in place. As I follow her down the stairs, I can’t help but get excited for what the night is going to entail.

  Arriving at the bar, Heather makes her way right for the bartender. “Shots, we need them now, and keep them coming.”

  The bartender gives us both a once over. “Anything in particular, ladies?”

  Heather looks at me for a suggestion, so I say, “Tequila.”

  The bartender gives me a wink before turning to get our shots. “Damn girl, how fucked up do you want to be,” Heather whispers into my ear.

  “Wasn’t that the objective? For me to get as fucked up as possible before Cole got here, tequila will definitely get me fucked up.” Heather shakes her head in response.

  For the first time in forever, I see Heather blush. “What gives?” I ask.

  “I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Heather tries to blow off my question as she leans back to sneak a peek at the bartender.

  “Is there a specific reason you are breaking your neck to catch a glimpse of the bartender’s ass?”

  “Shut your whore mouth, or I’ll tell Cole about Teddy.” My cheeks immediately heat with embarrassment.

  “There is no need to threaten Teddy at a time like this! I just want to know what gives.” I want to run home and check my secret hiding spot for my favorite stuff animal.

  Heather sighs in defeat before responding, “Fine! You know how I’ve been telling you about Wyatt?”

  “The guy who was able to break the armor around your heart,” I say a little louder than intended.

  “Yes, now keep your voice down! That’s him,” she responds, as she motions her head down the bar in the bartender’s direction.

  I can’t help but check him out as he heads back towards us carrying our shots. Wyatt stands a little under six feet tall, gorgeous body, and dirty blonde hair. I can see exactly why Heather is so head over heels for him.

  Wyatt returns, placing our shots on the bar. I throw back mine without a second thought. “Give me two more of those, I want to forget my name.”

  Heather giggles before handing her card over and asking for more shots and some other fruity drink to go with it.

  “Put that away, you know your money is no good here,” Wyatt responds with a wink. “Is this the infamous Addison you’ve been so excited about coming to visit?”

  “In the flesh.” I reach over the bar to shake his hand. “You really need to let her pay for some of the drinks. I plan to get thoroughly intoxicated, it is my graduation party after all.”

  “Well, Congratulations! Welcome to being an adult, or at least attempting to be one.” Wyatt chuckles before taking Heather’s card. “Alright you win, but the first round is on me.”

  Heather and Wyatt continue to talk about something, but at the moment I don’t care. Throwing back one of my shots, I spin around to lean against the bar and begin searching the room to see if Cole arrived already.

  “Calm your tits, he said he was going to be here, so he will. Here take this shot and glass of water. If you finish it, I’ll grab you another drink. I wanted you drunk, but he won't fuck you if you’re not coherent.”

  Pointing toward an empty table near the dance floor, Heather ushers me in that direction. I take a seat and down my second shot.

  “Thanks Mom. I thought the point of tonight was to have fun and get me laid.”

  “Yes, but no one is going to have fun if you puke everywhere and end up with alcohol poisoning.”

  “Fair enough. I’ll drink the water, but I am going to be angry the entire time.” I can’t help but laugh at our conversation, while I continue to scan the bar.

  Heather has always had more confidence than I did when it comes to men. It may have a little something to do with her size two body and perfect hair. Don’t get me wrong, I love the way I look and wouldn’t change it for the world, but when you are surrounded by people who are more focused on who your Father is than you, it becomes discouraging.

  “Look Mom, I’m all finished. Can I have a big girl drink now?” I ask as I take the last pull from my glass of water.

  “Fine, but next round is on you. This is going to get expensive if you keep drinking like that.”

  “Well, you should have thought about that before you labeled this my graduation party.”

  She rolls her eyes at me before disappearing into the crowd. I pick up the lime attached to my empty shot glass and place it in my mouth.

  “If you need something to lick, I can help you with that.”

  I’m startled by the whispered voice in my ear, spinning around I notice Cole with a sexy smirk on his face.

  “You’re here!” Heather says to my left. Thankfully carrying a dirty martini for me. I throw it back and hand her my empty glass. I try to calm my racing heart with the drink, but no such luck. This man is going to be the death of me. Heather’s right, I’ll just fuck him out of my system and be done with it. If I’m drunk, I won’t remember so there is no way I can get attached.

  “Slow down there, Tiger,” Cole says as he hands me a glass of water.

  “I don’t recall asking for your opinion,” I snap in response. “Heather, can I have another one, please? If this ass hadn't scared the shit out of me, I wouldn’t have chugged that one down.”

  She raises her eyebrow at me, as I cross my arms. Either she gets me another one, or I get it my damn self. Either way, I am getting another martini. Our small staring contest ends with Heather spinning on her heels and heading back toward the bar.

  “You know we are only trying to look out for you, drinking that quickly can’t be good,” Cole says as he slides into the seat next to me. His button-up shirt slips open, and I watch his abs constrict as he brings his ankle up to rest on his knee.

  “If you’re a good girl, I’ll let you lick them before the night is out.”

  “You’re an ass, you know that.” I can’t help the shiver that runs through my body as he brushes his fingers across the back of my shoulder and down my arm. He grips my right hand, placing a gentle kiss on my wrist.

  “I may be an ass, but I know you want me to fuck you. Let’s see how long you can hold out.”

  COLE

  The look in her eyes as I lean back in my seat has me adjusting myself underneath the table. I’ve wanted her since she opened her mouth, even more, once I walked into the bar tonight, now to get her to admit to herself she wants me just as badly.

  “You can let go of my hand now,” she snarks back at me.

  Her attitude just makes me wan
t to put her over my knee and give her ass a swat for good measure. Fuck, I’ve never been into spankings, but Addison needs one.

  “Now that I have you, I’ve got no intention of letting you go.” I gently tug on her arm pulling her into my body, she falls into my chest. If she weren’t so intoxicated, I’m sure she would be resisting my advances a little more. Win-win for both of us.

  “I want you. Tell me you want me,” I whisper into Addison’s ear before taking it between my lips. I feel a small shiver run through her body.

  “I want to be fucked. If you happen to be the one to do it, I wouldn’t complain.”

  “I’ll take it.” Without another thought, I capture her mouth in a searing kiss. She tastes like tequila, limes, and something that is purely her. I nibble at her lips, as we both battle for dominance, neither one giving in.

  She pulls away slightly, grasping the table for support. “You’re trouble,” she states, but before she’s able to return to her own seat, I grip her wrist again pulling her off balance so that she falls completely into my lap.

  “You like it. Don’t pretend that you don’t.” I run my nose along the curve of her neck placing a kiss on her shoulder before making my way back up. “Those pretty boys wanted daddy’s money, didn’t they? Me, I’ve got plenty of my own money. I want to know what you sound like when you cum.” She moans in response. I capture her mouth with mine in another searing kiss, she rolls her hips against my hardening cock causing me to growl in response.

  “If you don’t stop that right now, I’ll fuck you right here in front of everyone.”

  “Promise?” A playful smile crosses her face. Addison has a feisty side, this is going to be fun to explore once I get her out of this dress and in my bed. That is if we make it out of here before I’m buried deep inside her.

  “I guess I should find my own ride home, huh?” Heather comes back to the table with drinks for all of us. In my desire to get Addy’s attention I completely forgot about Heather being here. “Here bitch, drink up. Cole, you will make sure she gets back in one piece, won’t you?” The look she gives me halts that smartass remark I was ready to give her.
