taking control of my own fears and not letting them rule me. I also needed to start taking some major steps to trusting the guys, and I couldn’t think of a better way to do both. Or, hell, maybe I was just crazy horny still.
"Princess..." Archer's warning growl dissolved into a gasp as I leaned over and took his cock in my mouth. His leg jerked as he stomped on the brakes, stopping the car dead in the middle of the road.
I ran my tongue around the tip of his erection, then looked up at him with a smirk. "I thought you could drive well, Sunshine. So, prove it." My fingers curled around his base, stroking, and my mouth returned to his tip.
Archer let out a hiss of curses, but did as he was told and started the car once more. I rewarded him for following directions like a good dog by taking him deep into my throat.
Ten minutes passed in no time as I toyed with him, bringing him to the brink, then backing off again. But by the time he pulled into the driveway of a pretty, English-style cottage, I was feeling generous. I let him come, filling my mouth as I swallowed greedily, then licked my lips as I sat back up.
The look he gave me when I grinned at him was equal parts awe and shock, and the fact that I could stun him like that gave me an exhilarating sense of satisfaction.
"Oh, Princess," he murmured, licking his lips as he caught his breath. "You’d better hold the fuck on. This weekend is gonna get wild."
Luckily for me, Archer D'Ath was the kind of man who kept his word.

The house Archer had taken me to turned out to be one of many in his property portfolio. This one had been a recent purchase, fully furnished. It was a good thing he did own it because we legitimately fucked on every possible surface over the course of the weekend. As it was, I insisted on stripping all the bed linens and running them through the wash before we left on Sunday night. Which, of course, then resulted in Archer fucking me on top of the washing machine during spin cycle.
Our mood was subdued as we returned to Shadow Grove, though, with neither one of us speaking much on the drive. He did grip my hand the whole way, though, and as we turned into the familiar streets surrounding our home, he seemed to have something on his mind.
"Spit it out, D'Ath," I finally demanded when the tension became uncomfortable. "Have you changed your mind, then?"
Because we were about to arrive home and that meant he was either on board with sharing my time and affections or we were done. I desperately hoped we weren't done.
He frowned, shooting me a startled look. "What? No. I was just going to ask you something..." He trailed off, and I waited patiently. Okay, not so patiently, but I waited, and that was the main point. "I've got a fight next weekend. Nothing official, just a charity event, but I want you to be there. Will you come?"
I gave him a perplexed look. "Why wouldn't I?"
He shrugged, seeming awkward as fuck all of a sudden. "I don't know. I planned to ask you before... you know. Before this weekend happened. I just know if you're watching, I'll have the appropriate motivation to win."
His cheeks pinked just a touch, and my grin spread wide. He was embarrassed, and that was a new side to Archer D'Ath. I also remembered the last time I'd watched him fight and how I'd motivated him.
I let out a low chuckle. "Alright, how's this then? I'll come to the fight, obviously. If you win, you can have me for the whole night in any way you want."
He gave me a narrow-eyed stare. "Can't I do that anyway?"
"Not anymore," I replied with a wide smile. "You had your weekend; now I'm barring your access until you win that fight."
He slammed his foot down on the brake. "What?"
"You heard me, Sunshine; don't pretend you didn't. You've got plenty of material stored in your mental spank bank to last the week, I'm sure." It was cruel of me, especially when I had no intention of applying the same restrictions to Kody or Steele. But they didn't have an MMA fight to win.
Archer glowered, but he was smart enough not to push the issue. "Fine. And if I lose?"
