I smile and ignore her, “Lainey, like my artwork?”

Her mouth forms into an O as she looks between the both of us. She points at me while looking at Lexie, “Reed gave you that hickey from the other day! I fucking knew it.” She shoves Kalix’s shoulder and turns her attention to me. Her facial expression turns serious as she threatens me, “I swear to god, Reed. If you fucking hurt her, I’ll chop your goddamn balls off.”

Lexie laughs as the high settles in and slaps a hand over her mouth.

I smirk and turn my attention to my Honeybee, “I could never.”

A few hours and smoke sessions later, we are all toasted.

I lean over and whisper in Lexie’s ear, “You’re staying with me tonight.”

She giggles, “Oh, you think so?”

I lean in just a smidge closer and say, “I know so.” Before kissing under her ear.

She squirms and says out loud, “Okay, I’m ready for bed.”

Kalix snickers, “I don’t think she means sleep.”

Lexie blushes and Lainey punches Kalix in the arm. “Leave her alone.”

Kalix throws his hands up, “I didn’t say anything was wrong with that.”

I shake my head and hold out my hand to help Lexie up. “Come on, let's get you to bed.” I say with a smirk and she smiles while rolling her eyes at me.

CHAPTER 30

LEXIE

Right now, I feel amazing. Light as a feather as we walk towards the elevator.

I grab Reed’s hand and thread my fingers through his. Leaning into him as we walk I say, “Do you have any snacks at your place?”

He smirks down at me, “I do.”

“Something salty and sweet?” I cheese big and he bites his lip still looking down at me as he slaps the button up to head to his apartment.

“I have something salty and sweet for you right now.” He grabs his cock through his pants and winks at me when I roll my eyes.

The elevator dings and I press the button to his floor once inside. The elevator starts to move and we only have two floors to go.

I watch as Reed slaps the emergency stop button, then leans against the opposite end of the tiny space.

“Uh, what are you doing?” I ask him, confused.

He crosses his arms and lifts a hand to his face, brushing a thumb over his soft bottom lip. “Take your clothes off.” He flicks his eyes down my body.

“We’re in an elevator.” I deadpan.

His brows slightly lift before he pushes off the wall and slowly closes the space between us.

My hands land on his chest as he towers over me.

“The quicker you cooperate, the quicker you can get your snack.”

My body heats as he tugs on the hem of my dress, urging me to take it off.

“Come on, Honeybee. Take it off for me.” He whispers as he kisses the tender flesh below my ear, making my body break out in goosebumps.
