do list.

It gets noisier and noisier. I can hear Trident grunting now too. Nia’s eyes are getting wider and wider. Finally…fucking finally…the woman gives an almighty yell. Any asshole can hear that she’s coming hard.

Thank fuck!

I knock again.

“Give them half a minute,” Nia whispers.

“No!” I growl. “Fucking Trident and his dick.”

“You also have a dick,” she says…completely straight-faced. “You were at a sex club just the other night.” She shrugs. “I don’t see too much of a difference.”

“There’s a huge difference. Tri does this all the time. The other night was the first time I’ve looked for sex in months. Not that it’s any of your business.” I look at the scar on my arm. I see her cheeks turn pink. She’s ashamed. I should hope so! I knock again, much harder this time. “Tri! Hey…Tri!” I knock some more.

He finally opens the door, wearing the tiniest pair of underwear I have ever seen on a man.

“Hi,” Nia says, smiling.

“Hello, there.” Tri goes straight into flirt mode, like he wasn’t just fucking another woman moments earlier. Like he doesn’t reek of sex and some shitty floral perfume.

“We need your help,” I say. “Can we come in already? We’ve been out here forever.” In reality, it was only about five minutes, but it felt longer.

“Sure.” He moves to the side, and we go in. “Sorry to keep you waiting. I was…busy.” He smirks. “Make yourselves at home.” He points at the living room. “The kitchen is well-stocked, so help yourself.”

“Where are you going?” I fold my arms. I know exactly where this knob is headed.

He points at the hallway that leads to the bedrooms. “I won’t be too long,” he says.

“What?” I growl. “Get rid of the girl. This is serious.”

“So is this,” he says. “I kind of promised her three orgasms. We’re two down and one to go.” He’s walking backward as he talks.

“No,” I say. “Get rid of her…now! You can explain that something has come up.”

Tri laughs. “Something is going to come up, alright. I’ll be as quick as I can. Lucky for you, I have a magic dick.” He grins and repeats, “Make yourselves at home.” He winks at Nia. The fucking audacity of this man.

I watch as he saunters off, disappearing down the hallway. “I think going to Samuel and putting Gaire to sleep would have been better than this,” I tell Nia.

She laughs softly. Her cheeks are a bright pink.

“Do you want something to drink? He has a whole bar, and then there are the traditional beverages…coffee? Tea?” I’m usually not this nice. It feels weird.

“Bar?” She lifts her brows. “No, thanks. Maybe just a water.”

I nod and head into the kitchen. It’s ridiculously big. I doubt Trident even cooks. I grab two waters from the fridge and walk back to Nia. As I hand a bottle to her, it starts up again – the moaning. This time the headboard is smacking against the wall. “You’ve got to be kidding me,” I mutter.

“He did say he would make it quick.” Nia is smiling. I can see that her cheeks are red again.

“Let’s sit.” I gesture to the living area. “Maybe we can go outside?” I’m not sure if I can listen to this for much longer. At least if we’re out back, it won’t be as in your face.

“It’s easier for Gaire to find me outdoors. I don’t know why that is. I don’t know much about his tracking powers. In hindsight, he was tight-lipped about them. He was tight-lipped about a lot of things.”

We take a seat. The banging gets louder. Hard thuds that almost shake the whole damn house. At least, it feels that way. I work hard at ignoring the noise. Pissed all over again at what an inconsiderate bastard Trident is. “So, what are—?” The moaning gets louder too. I can barely think through all the racket. We can’t hold a decent conversation, that’s for sure. I scrub a hand over my face as I watch Nia squirm in her seat. She looks very uncomfortable. I see her picking on the label of the bottle in her hand. Dammit! I squirm in my seat as well but for a different reason. My cock is pressed up against my zipper. I’m listening to Tri fucking some girl, and all I can think about is how sexy as fuck Nia is. I think about how she looked naked. It’s inappropriate and not like me at all! I look away because I can see
