know, I’ve had a rough couple of weeks and a lot of people I refuse to disappoint. And as far as I am concerned, you’re a road block on my path to success.”
“Why? Because you can’t stop thinking about me?” he teases.
I roll my eyes. “There you go again with the ego.”
Cash’s hand roams slowly along my shoulder and grazes down my arm, his eyes glistening with a boyish charm. “Come on, Mittens, at least admit I’m growing on you.”
I chuckle. “Geez, you’re persistent.”
“What can I say? There is something about you I can’t seem to shake. Come to think of it…it might be your lack of manners.”
“Excuse me?” If anyone is lacking manners, it is Cash. Any guy who invites a girl to a party and then flirts with every other female except her is 100% lacking manners.
“You still haven’t thanked me for the cupcakes, and you haven’t even had the decency to tell me what kind of food you like so I know where to take you for dinner.”
I let out a low and amused chuckle. “Thank you for the extravagant cupcakes, but we are not going out for dinner, unless it’s for business.”
“Come on, Mittens.” He runs his thumb along my cheek.
The limo stops, and I glance out the window. My building is a sidewalk away, visible through the tinted glass. Within seconds, the driver opens the door. I quickly scoot down along the seat, my behind, propped in Cash’s face as I graze my way past him.
He lets out a throaty growl. “You’re a fucking tease, you know that?”
I take one step backward onto the sidewalk, putting myself at a safe distance from his frustrated stare. “And you’re a man-whore, who needs a serious reality check. Once you get one, I’ll happily take you up on a business dinner. Until then, you’ll be dining alone.”
He loosens his tie, his blue eyes hooded with desire. “We had a deal, Mittens. I worked hard for those goals.”
I bite down on my bottom lip, before giving him one final smile. “I bet you did. Goodnight, Cash.”
Chapter 5
The following Friday, I wake up to the loudest wall banging I’ve ever heard, synchronized with euphoric moans of pleasure. Throwing off my covers, I find myself in front of Lyndsey’s bedroom door, hair a mess and teeth un-brushed in my flimsy pajama. Rapping my fist in three repetitive knocks causes a seizing silence. The door hinges creak, opening to reveal my freshly fucked sister. She is wearing a man’s button up shirt, glowing, illuminated by the sun filtering in through the window behind her. Her hair is wild, her lips are red and swollen and she looks guilty as all hell.
“Omigod, did we wake you?” Lyndsey gasps letting out a nervous giggle.
I glare at her. “Could you be any louder?”
“Do you honestly want me to answer that?” She quickly glances over her shoulder.
“No, please don’t.” I try to sneak a peek at the mystery man in her bed, but she blocks my view and steps into the hallway, closing the door behind her.
I narrow my eyes at her. “Who’s in there?”
Lyndsey bites her lip. “Louis.”
My eyes widen and I suppress a laugh. “What? I thought you guys were just friends?”
Lyndsey nods, bringing her voice to a near whisper. “Yeah, we are. Jesus, Quinn, haven’t you ever heard of the term friends with benefits ?” She lets out a deep breath and chews on her bottom lip. “Maybe you should try it sometime. It beats the hell out of a relationship.”
“When sex is involved, there is no such thing as friends,” I say.
“Oh trust me, we’re friends…” She giggles. “He’s the best friend my vagina’s ever had.” She leans closer and whispers, “I’ve already had four orgasms, Quinn. Four!”
When I look up, Louis is leaning in the doorway, half naked, sporting only a pair of boxer briefs. His soft hazel eyes, crinkle around the edges when he smiles a warm seductive grin at Lyndsey’s backside. Noting my gaze, she turns, beaming back at him.
“Hey, Quinn,” Louis shoves
