Mr. Irrelevant (Rock City Renegades #1)

by C.L. Rose

Fuck everything I just said. Olivia Grant is mine.

“It almost felt like you belonged to me for a second, and I couldn’t hold back. Next time, prepare a guy before you just show up looking like everything he’s ever wanted.”

“Are you really underestimating how badly I want you? I can assure you that, as long as you’re an option, my head is not turning.”

Butterfly wings tickle my stomach at the thought. It’s starting to get to a point where if I’m not with Maddox, I’m missing him. That’s not very friends-with-benefits of me, but I can’t help it. I think he might be my new favorite person. Cue the internal groan. Becoming a simp for the guy I’m having sex with was not on my bingo card for the year, especially since that guy is the quarterback for the team my family owns, but here we are.

“Just give me the checkmark I earned.”

I belong to Maddox Dane, and I’ll do whatever it takes to make sure he’s undeniably aware of that.

“That’s my sweet baby,” I purr. “All you have to do is lie there while I blow load after load into you until there’s no doubt who you belong to. I’ll change your goddamn DNA with the amount of cum I leave inside your hot little body, Liv. And you’ll love every second of it, won’t you?”

She may not realize it yet, but Olivia Grant is it for me. All that’s left to do is convince her that what we have is worth the risk and make her mine for good.

“I just need you to be mine, Liv. Really mine. Please. I don’t care what it takes. If you want to keep it a secret until we both retire, we will. But I can’t just be your friend anymore. It’s fucking killing me inside.”

“Thank you, baby,” he whispers. “I promise you won’t regret it. I’m going to give you everything.” I shake my head. “I don’t need everything. Just this. Us.”

“Best checkmark I’ll ever earn, baby. But you didn’t have to make me do anything. I love you because I was born to do it, and I’ll spend every day showing you how grateful I am to be the one you gave your heart to.”

My heart is so full of love for this girl that it might actually explode, and I’m counting down the hours until I can finally shout it from the rooftops.

My midnights belonged to Maddox Dane then, and he can have all the rest—from now until the end of time.
