“I miss him.”
“I thought you hated him.”
“I got over it. I wish you were with him still.”
Before I can answer, Noah comes out of his office.
“So, what are you girls talking about?”
“Girl stuff. Unless you have an opinion about mascara, I doubt you’d be interested.”
“I like it when you wear it. You have mile-long eyelashes.”
He takes me into his arms and dips me, then plants a kiss on my nose. I know it’s for show because Megan’s here. Our relationship is on the icy side tonight. But I play along. I don’t want my sister telling my parents that another engagement of mine is in trouble.
Noah goes to the living room and turns on the television to watch something sports, probably a baseball game; I can hear the announcer. Megan and I talk about all the things we missed in each other’s lives. I’m glad she’s here because I miss girl time. My best friend, Olivia, is moving back to Manhattan soon and that will give me someone else to commiserate.
Later that night, I’m lying in bed and Noah slips in behind me. He pulls me close and begins to knead my breasts.
“No. I’m so not in the mood.”
“Did I do something wrong? I thought we resolved everything.”
“You resolved everything. I need time to absorb what you told me. You can’t make everything alright with sex.”
I feel him shrink away from me and move to his side of the bed. I’m still pissed off about his behavior over the past couple of weeks.
“Lucian called me today. He’s coming to visit at the end of next week.”
“I thought he was coming in July?”
“My father has a big development deal he’s working on. He has to go to Japan in July, so Lucian is going to have to cover the other ongoing projects while he’s gone. He doesn’t trust anyone else.”
Figures, the great Richard Wilton. I still can’t believe he cut Noah off with paying for college. It must have been painful to have your parent take away their support when you needed it most. I’m surprised that Caroline, his mother, didn’t have something to say, but then again, she’s had problems with alcohol over the years. It might have been one of the times she was drying out in some Palm Springs Rehab Center.
“Is he staying with us?”
“More than likely.”
I like Lucian. He’s different from Noah, less high strung. They look nothing alike except they share the same sapphire blue eyes. He’s shorter but handsome, just in a different way.
“Maybe Megan can join us.”
“Whatever.”
I frown. “Noah, that’s a child’s response. You need to get along with Megan; she’s going to be your sister in law.”
“Don’t remind me,” he mumbles.
The word “dick” is at the tip of my tongue because that’s what he’s being. I don’t give him the satisfaction of a reply and turn over on my stomach to go to sleep.
In the middle of the night, I feel Noah snuggle up against me and pull me onto my side. I wake partially but once I’m in his arms, I quickly fade back to sleep. I don’t want to fight; I love him, but lately, our relationship is strained. I’m awake and rising from bed for a much-needed cup of coffee when Noah stirs, leaning on his elbow.
“I hope you’re prepared because I’m going to fuck you hard tonight.”
Any bad feelings I had from the night before have dissipated with sleep and I feel my belly clench at the mention of him fucking me. I want it now, but we can’t. Instead, I get back in bed and snuggle against him making Noah growl in my ear not to tease him. I’m so comfortable; I don’t want to get up. I have time since it’s only 5:30.
Noah is not about to behave, and he slips his hand in my panties, I’m wet, and he nips my ear as his fingertip touches my clit. I protest but that fades as he stimulates me with his fingers. I’m panting when there’s a knock on the door. Noah withdraws his hand and I bite my lip.
