overpowering perfume on my clothes, so I toss them in a heap on the floor and kick them into a corner. That may be the last time I ever wear that particular suit.
My reflection in the bathroom mirror stops me cold. I stare hard at myself, asking what the hell I’ve done. It’s a question I’ve asked several times over the last few weeks, but now, it’s time for me to make a plan.
Shit is about to get real. The way Sasha looked at me keeps replaying in my mind. Guilt flows through my body for keeping this from Bizzy. She may be upset, but she loves me. And if this changes her feelings, I’ll love her enough for the both of us.
I make the decision to tell her tonight. When everyone leaves, I’ll sit her down and explain every single dirty detail. Then I’ll hold her tight, apologizing until my voice is gone. She can cry, scream, and fight me all she wants.
The one thing she can’t do is leave.
I crawl into bed naked, waiting for her to join me and feel the pounding in my head start to disappear. The tension in my shoulders and back eases at the smell of Bizzy all over the bed. The mixture of limes, citrus, and coconuts from her body lotion and shampoo engulfs me.
The next thing I know, my eyes flutter open to see her looking at me with a sweet smile, running a hand through my hair. My whole body wakes up at the sight of her leaning over, the scoop neck of her dress falling enough to expose her silky blue bra. Instantly, I’m hard, wondering if she’s wearing a matching set.
Without warning, my arms tag her, and I twist us so she’s trapped against me. Her giggle fills the room until my mouth finds hers and I nibble on her bottom lip.
“Someone’s feeling better,” she mumbles, her hand now massaging my scalp.
“You’re overdressed.” I skim my fingers down her side until I reach the hem of the dress, feeling the smooth skin of her thigh. My hips jerk, pressing my erection into her through the sheet.
“Shaw,” she breathes out faintly.
“Hmmm?” I continue to inch her dress up, ready to remove all the clothing between us.
“We can’t. Your brothers are already here.”
“That’s their problem for being early. They can wait,” I growl, licking along her collarbone. “You’ll have to be quiet.”
“Shaw…” She tries weakly to push me away.
“Say my name like that again.”
“Baby, we really can’t. They’re not early; you’re late. I let you sleep as long as I could.”
“What do you mean?”
“You’ve been asleep for hours.”
“I thought you were joining me. Why didn’t you wake me?”
“Because you were peaceful and I knew you needed your rest. I’ve never known you to be a napper, so I figured it was a bad headache.”
“I’ll never take a nap again if it means I miss the chance to spend the afternoon inside you. Nothing is worth missing that.”
“Honey, you realize they’re not staying all night, right?”
“The minute they leave, I’m peeling you out of this dress.”
“Noted.” She leans up, giving me a quick kiss, and rolls away, leaving me to fall back on the bed alone.
“What am I supposed to do about this?” I grip my throbbing dick, pumping a few times to try and ease the ache.
“You can take care of it in the shower.”
I catch the gleam in her eye, which causes my cock to twitch in my palm. “Did you just suggest I jack off in the shower?”
“I think it’s hot. And you can tell me about each and every stroke tonight while we finish what you started.” She winks at me seductively and struts away, shutting the door without another word.
“Fuck.” I limp to the bathroom, knowing this is not going away without some sort of release.
An hour later, I’m counting the minutes, wondering how much longer these people are going to invade my home.
“You going to at least pretend you’re glad we’re here?” Nick jabs his elbow into my stomach.
“Sorry, man.” I rub the spot and try not to grimace. I think he forgets his own strength sometimes. “I’m glad you’re here. It’s been a rough day. Actually, a rough week.”
“Problems at work?” Mathis questions.
“Nothing I can’t handle. It’s always hard taking over new clients in the middle of their season, but Darren and Joe are easy. It’s getting through their contracts and endorsement deals. Now, if Joe goes to the World Series, we’ve discussed
