I accept thanks in blow jobs and anal.”
“Jaxson,” I cried, cracking up. “Since when does snow cone machine equal anal sex?”
“Since always, baby.” He slammed the door shut, keeping me right where I was. “That’s why I was saving this up for a special day.”
“Today is a special day.” I watched him glide my zipper down, revealing the pink lace panties beneath. “I was voted president of the Sallys.”
Jaxson froze partially cupping my middle.
I gave him a half smile. “Total mood killer?”
“Little bit.”
“You’re not going to tell me how dangerous it is, are you? And that there’s nothing I can do, so I shouldn’t try.”
Sighing, Jaxson pulled out. He grabbed the lever by his side, reclining his seat and folding his hands behind his head as he gazed up at me. “No, I’m not going to do that.”
“So what?”
“I’m going to ask what happens now. Two people have gone missing. The former president and her friends were psychopaths who vanished. One of them is supposedly dead. Someone covered up what Leighton did to Logan and they could literally be anyone. They could be living in the sorority right now. You can do just about anything, baby, I won’t play like I don’t know that. But I’m guessing you don’t know where to go from here either.”
I settled on his chest, resting my chin on my hands, and propping my feet on the steering wheel. “Do I have to be honest?”
He cracked a grin. “I believe we swore on our sex lives to tell the truth and nothing but the truth.”
“Sacred,” I murmured. “In that case, you’re right. I don’t know where to go from here. I can’t go around questioning the sisters. The innocent ones will think I’m nuts. The guilty ones will lie their asses off. If only I knew more about Leighton and how she became... that.”
“I’m more interested in how she dug up those secrets.” He raised his head. “Did you promise to get rid of the initiation?”
“Of course.”
“Val, if you let it happen— or if you let the house think you’re going through with it, you might find out how she got her hands on the dirt.”
“No.” I wiggled up his chest, dropping a kiss on his chin. “I can’t go back on my promise the day after it gets them to vote for me. The only thing I can do is pay attention, get close to the older sisters who knew Leighton better, and find out what I can from Mrs. Kessler. She’s been here through the years. She’s seen all the sisters come and go.”
“She might be the reason a few of your sisters came and went.”
“More reason to learn what she’s about.”
Jaxson caressed my cheek reaching to push my hair behind my ears. “Promise me something?”
“Anal sex on the front seat? Not in the driveway with Caroline’s bedroom overlooking us, but pull into the garage and you have a deal.”
Smiling at my joke, Jaxson skated over the bait. “Promise me you’ll have your guards with you everywhere you go, in and out of that house. I would follow you if I could. If it can’t be me, I like the idea of highly trained professionals with guns.”
I walked my fingers up his chest. “To protect me from a bunch of sorority girls?”
“I’ve got a healthy fear of them after Leighton Lewis.”
I shivered. “Me too.”
Jaxson gripped my ass, pushing me up closer. “I’m waiting on that promise.”
“I promise. I have no interest in being the next one to disappear. My boys need me.”
“That’s what I’m saying. We’d be a fucking mess in six seconds flat.”
“Generous. I’d give you three.”
Jaxson jerked like he’d been struck. “Oh. She’s got jokes?” He squeezed his plump handful. “I know what to do about that.”
“A good, hard fuck in the ass?”
Groaning, he said, “Dammit, woman. Marry me.”
I placed my palms on either side of him, rising up and hissing at his nails scraping down my thighs. “Do it just right, baby, and...” My gaze drifted over his head. “You’ll get me... to... agree to anything...”
“Fuck, yeah. What are we still doing here?”
I fell to the side as Jaxson shot up. I zeroed in on the bit of white poking out from the leather. Throat closing up, I tugged it out of the seat, losing my breath as I held it before me.
“Jaxson,” I rasped. “What is this?”
“What’s what?” he asked without turning around. “Sit behind me, so I can pull up.”
“What’s this?” Twisting, I thrust the lace thong between
