“The fuck?” I jump back, yanking my sweatpants on so fast I almost topple over.
“Once more, for old time’s sake?” she slurs, crawling across the floor toward me.
“Get the fuck up off my floor, Alicia!” I yell, incessant rage taking over me.
Her eyes pop wide and she rises to her feet shakily.
I drag a T-shirt on over my head, blood pounding in my ears.
“You used to fuck me,” she whines.
“I used to do a lot of things.” I glare at her.
“She doesn’t have to know. I won’t tell her.” She sways on her feet. “Is she pretty? Is she—?”
“She’s everything!” I hiss. “Fucking everything to me. So no, I’m not going to let you suck me off for ‘old time’s sake’, despite the fact she’d probably never know.I’dknow.” I jab a finger into my chest. “I’d fucking know!”
“I thought you just needed reminding how good we were. I thought…” Alicia’s eyes dart side to side like she’s just realized she’s a lamb that’s waltzed into the lion’s den.
“The thought of it doesn’t do a single thing for me.” I gesture down at my soft dick in my sweatpants. “You know why?”
She shakes her head, eyes wide.
“Because I fucking love her! And we want to be together,” I yell, making her jump. “What the hell is it that stops people understanding that? You? My father? You’re the fucking same.”
I stalk over to the bed, grabbing up her phone and purse before striding over and shoving them at her chest. “Sophie’s going to be my wife. She’s having my babies. I’d rather die than hurt her by looking at a woman that isn’t her. Do you understand me?”
Some of the anger leaves my body as Alicia nods her head repeatedly, her lower lip quivering. I could lay off her more. But fuck, she’s come sneaking into my room, knowing I’m in a relationship, trying to manipulate things in her favor.
Putting my dick in her mouth.
My anger threatens to spike again.
“Fasten your coat,” I instruct again.
I march her down to the hotel lobby with one hand firmly on her elbow to steer her on her unsteady legs.
“Get in a cab. Go drink some water. And go the fuck to bed,” I say in a firm voice as I lead her through the main hotel doors. “And don’t ever steal a key card and sneak into my hotel room again.”
A man in a dark suit with dark hair looks at us from where he’s standing talking to the hotel doorman. I recognize him immediately. Griffin Parker, the billionaire owner of the hotel.
“Mr. Harper,” he greets me calmly, his eyes flicking to Alicia, his mouth set in a firm line after overhearing everything.
“Mr. Parker.” I meet his gaze, not needing to say anything more as unspoken understanding passes between us.
He gestures to the doorman, speaking quietly into his ear. The doorman says something into his earpiece, and less than a minute later, a dark town car pulls up in front of the hotel.
“Getting a cab at this time can be a nightmare. Please, allow my driver to escort you home.” Griffin smiles politely at Alicia.
Her eyes dart to my face and she opens her mouth, but the intake of my breath through my nose seems to make her think twice about what she was going to say. Instead she pulls the belt around her coat tighter. “I appreciate not having to work my notice,” she manages to utter in a steady voice. “Goodbye, Drew.”
She weaves a wobbly path to the town car, nodding at the driver who closes the door behind her once she gets inside.
“She’s banned from The Songbird. She won’t bother you here again,” Griffin clips as the car pulls away.
“Thank you.” I rest my hands on my hips before cursing softly at the absurdity of it all.
Griffin’s lips twitch. “Need a drink?”
