Kindle Notes & Highlights
A goal without a plan is just a wish.
“Is that his first name?” “Well yeah.” “Yikes.” “Yikes? Why yikes?” I rush. “He wants to bang you, babe,”
“You wanna know something?” He doesn’t wait for me to respond before pushing away from the wall and taking two large steps toward me. “It hurt my feelings when you ditched me the other morning. I had big, big plans for you.”
“Don't go shy on me now, baby. We both know you're anything but.”
“So, are you going to run away from me again? Or have I convinced you that it’s no use?”
Blowing out a light laugh, I nod. “So. No strings. Just sex then, yeah?” She blinks once before saying, “Yeah, just sex.”
“You’re invading my life, Sierra. I was just trying to keep you out. But clearly, it didn’t work.”
“I don’t take kindly to people who find it so easy to talk to women like that. And I especially don’t like it when that woman's mine.”
“If you’re not scared, then sign over the gym to me and go. It’s going to be mine someday anyway. You know I’ll take care of it. If there’s nothing here for you to come back to, then you really can start over with Lana.”
“Braden’s lucky chain. He gave it to me this morning and told me to have you wear it tonight. I meant to hand it off to you in the car, but Sophie distracted me.”
Fingering the chain around my neck again, I watch Braden as he finally makes his way into the shimmering light. A shiny black robe hangs loosely from his shoulders, leaving his defined chest bare for all to see. My mouth waters as the individual muscles flex on their own accord, almost as if to torture me.
A cheek-splitting smile spreads across my face as soon as his wandering eyes clash with mine, brimming with so much emotion. A beyond obvious, cheesy wink from my playboy boxer is all it takes to forget about everything and lift my own arms in the air to join in the excited cheers, happier than I have been in years.
Braden’s face falls in my neck again and he shutters a breath against my skin, thrusting up slowly between my legs. “We need to go home, baby.” I nod quickly, anxiously, unable to pretend like that’s not exactly what I want. “Then take me home.”
“As much as I love fucking you, I’m not going to fly across the country to have an endless tap of your pussy.”
“What are you doing here? You two didn’t . . .” There’s something dark in his voice, something that he’s attempting to hide.
Spin-off🙏
“I love her, Dad. I love her more than I thought I could love anything or anyone and I hate it. I fucking hate knowing that to be with her, I have to give her the power to hurt me. How is that fair? How am I supposed to want to do that?”
There’s no me without you anymore baby. I’m sorry it took me so long to realize that. Meet me on the roof. I know that you know how to get there. Blame Sophie. I’ll see you soon. P.S if you forgot about me in the past 3 weeks, I’ll spank your ass so hard you won’t be able to sit for another 3.
