and looked at me. “Sex is the best stress reliever in life, so maybe it’s
something else. Call me when you figure it out,” she said as she walked out.
I walked to the locker room and got dressed. Damn Ellery Lane. I just couldn’t stop thinking about
her. Not only did she fuck with my head, now she’s messing with my sex life. I walked out of the gym
and climbed into the Range Rover. I put my head on the steering wheel for a minute while I tried to
figure out what I was going to do.
I drove to the penthouse and threw my bag on the bed. I stood in the shower and let the hot water
run down my body. I couldn’t stop thinking about Ellery and what her reaction is going to be when
Camille shows up at her apartment with the dresses. I stepped out of the shower and wiped the steam
from the mirror with my hand. I looked at the man in the mirror and didn’t recognize what I saw
anymore. My heart is flipping out, and my mind is fucked up, compliments of Ellery Lane.
I slept pretty well all night. I’m sure the amount of scotch I drank before bed had helped. The next
day, I got up, showered, dressed, and headed downstairs to the kitchen where Claire was making
homemade banana nut bread.
“Good morning, Connor. Did you have a nice evening?”
“Good morning, Claire. Today’s Sunday, and it’s your day off. What are you doing here?” I asked
her as I lightly kissed her cheek.
“Remember, I’m taking tomorrow off instead to take my husband to the doctor?”
“That’s right, I’m sorry, I forgot. Thank you for making banana bread, it smells delicious.” I said as
I took my coffee and sat at the table.
“It will be ready in about 5 minutes. You seem like you’re in a great mood today. Is there any
special reason why?” she smiled.
I got the impression from her smile that she knew about Ellery. I’m sure Denny told her; those two
seem to tell each other everything.
“The charity function is tonight, and I’m attending it with a very beautiful woman,” I answered as I
opened my laptop.
“Very good, Connor; I hope you enjoy yourself tonight,” Claire smiled as she set the plate of
banana bread on the table.
I smiled and thanked her. I checked my emails and started to answer a few of them when a text from
Ellery came through to my phone.
“Hi Connor, it’s me Ellery. Thank you for the beautiful dress, but it’s too much, and I don’t feel
right accepting it.”
I smiled because I knew she loved it. I wanted to make her feel like a princess tonight, even if she’s
just a friend.
“You’re welcome, and it’s not too much, see you at 6:00 pm sharp,” I replied.
I was anxious to see what dress she picked out. They were all stunning, but the strapless black lace
was my favorite. I could picture that dress, hugging her small silhouette, and with her breasts uplifted,
forming a sexy cleavage. I picture her hair in curls that cascade over her shoulders and her smile
when I pick her up. Damn that smile. I instantly became very aroused and needed to go upstairs to
take care of myself. This has become a daily habit since I haven’t had sex in a while. How the hell
was I going to control myself with her tonight?
I put on my tuxedo, fixed my hair, and put on my Armani cologne. Why the hell was I getting so
nervous? I put my cufflinks on and headed downstairs. My phone rang. I took it from my jacket, and
saw that it was my mother calling.
“Hello, mom,” I answered.
“Connor, darling, we won’t be attending the charity. I need you to send our apologies to everyone.”
“Why? What happened?” I asked.
“Nothing to worry about darling; we’re all sick with the flu.”
“I’m sorry, mom, is there anything you need?”
“No, Connor, just give our apologies and have a nice time.”
“Call me if you need me or anything,” I made her promise.
I made my way to the garage where Denny was waiting for me. I slid into the back of the limo and
took in a deep breath.
