“The Comets, or more accurately, Jaxon and Natalie’s core group. Fair warning: the girls always win. Hannah’s mildly terrifying on her best day, but give her an objective? She’s like a dog with a bone; she won’t rest until she gets what she wants.” He gave me a smirk. “You know about that, don’t you, Maddox? Heard you two had quite the run-in a few years back.”
A shudder racked my body. “Don’t remind me. Dodged a bullet on that one.”
He chuckled. “Yeah, well. There’s a mostly sisterless pack of women in Connecticut who always stick together. And if this evolves into somethingmore than a few text messages, I’d lay good odds that they get involved here too. Dakota’s one of them, and Bristol is an extension of her.”
“Great, so I’m not just messing around with one girl but four?”
Braxton snorted. “Try seven. You’re forgetting about Benji’s partner and Natalie’s sisters-in-law. Good luck to you, man, because you’re gonna need it.” He clapped me on the shoulder before walking away with his drink.
Jenner stared at Braxton’s retreating form. “So, I guess that’s a no to helping?” He shrugged, turning back to our target across the room. “Eh, we don’t need him. We’ve got this in the bag.”
“Says the man who didn’t know what to say the last time I asked him.” I took a sip of whiskey, letting it burn a path down my throat.
“Okay. I got this.” I picked up my phone and typed out a reply.
Baby, I can’t wait to make you squirt again. My cock is dying to play in the sprinkler.
It wasn’t long before a strangled shriek sounded from across the room, and I leaned back, taking in the view of a red-faced Bristol and Alyssa covering her mouth with both hands as her wide eyes stared in my direction. The second I raised my glass in acheersgesture, she averted her gaze, and a flush crept up her neck.
Curious beside me, Jenner asked, “What in the world did you say to her?”
I flashed him a peek at my screen, and he choked on his own spit. Amused, I patted his back as coughs rattled his chest.
“Holy shit. Did you actually make her squirt?” His voice was rough from the coughing fit.
Sipping my whiskey, I murmured around the rim of the glass, “What do you think?”
Jenner cleared his throat a few more times. “Fucking legend.”
My phone vibrated, and I glanced down to read her reply.
Bristol:Next time I suck your dick, I’m putting your legs on my shoulders.
I’ll take it as my responsibility to practice safe sex. I’m gonna tie you to the bed so you won’t fall off.
Bristol:When you’re around, I don’t wanna feel butterflies flapping in my stomach.I wanna feel your cock.
Your pussy is my favorite midnight snack. The cravings are so intense I have the phantom taste of you on my tongue.
Bristol:I wanna be choked and pounded into the mattress while you spank my ass raw as you call me your good little girl.
That last text from Bristol had me standing so abruptly that my chair clattered to the ground. My cock was throbbing behind the fly of my jeans, and my heart threatened to beat out of my chest. Raking a hand down my face, I managed to mouth,Well played, to Bristol across the room. Seeing her triumphant smile was worth it.
I turned to leave as Jenner said to my back, “Where are you going?”
“Gotta take a cold shower. See you tomorrow, buddy.”
I wasn’t sure a cold shower would be enough to tame the beast within tonight. She was testing my restraint, but I reminded myself it was mind over matter.
I could keep my hands off her long enough for her to come to terms with her past.
Or at least, I hoped.
Chapter 19
Bristol
Watching Maddox read mytexts from across the room in San Francisco was satisfying, especially when the last one elicited a physical reaction so strong that he had to walk away.
