Beau appeared back at the table with a tray full of drinks for the men and said sweetly, “You should ask Rich for his number, he loves dirty wrecks.” Leaving us with no doubt about the amount of shade she was throwing his way.
Catching Lily’s eye as she watched her best friend walk back to the bar, I mouthed, “Awkward.”
Not missing a beat, she whispered back, “No shit.”
The feet of Rich’s chair screeching across the floor as he stood up from the table made me flinch slightly, but after that I was so caught up watching him walk around the bar and then lifting her over his shoulder, that I didn’t even care that Kari was still trying to convince Levi to help her.
Whoa, that was a hot move. Not only did he do that, but he strode out of the bar with her, ignoring her smacking his ass and whatever she was saying to him.
Turning back to face me from where she’d been watching them, too, Ariana fanned herself. “Now that was hot. I didn’t think Rico Suave had it in him.”
“If that’s what it takes, baby, I’ll throw you over my shoulder right now,” Parker told her, his voice a low growl.
Not wanting to show how much he was rattling her, she patted him on the cheek and said sweetly, “And I’ll kick you in the balls right now, baby.” Standing up, she called across the table, “Yo, Kari. Parker here likes high maintenance wrecks, too. He’s all yours.”
As she finished, she turned to walk away but Parker caught her and pulled her down onto his lap.
“Not interested, Corey,” he muttered to Kari, and then started whispering furiously into Ariana’s ear.
How had this gone from a drink with the girls to drama central in the space of ten minutes? Admittedly, we’d discussed anal and fisting, but where had all the drama come from?
A tug of my hand got my attention onto Lily who was leaning in so she could whisper something to me. “What you want to do is not make a bucket list of things that are possible to do sexually, but things you really want to do. There are different types of sex - some hardcore, some not so hardcore. It all depends on the people involved,” she told me, and then paused as she waited for me to digest this sage wisdom. When I nodded, she continued, “Think of all the stuff you think is hot, then put it into action. Have some ass spanking, hair pulling, hot sex with Levi. Then keep having it, and enjoy the hell out of every second.”
I doubted that she could have heard what Lily was saying, but Dahlia leaned in and whispered, “There’s a book that has four hundred and ten sexual positions. Get overnight shipping on it and get to work.” Pulling back she winked at both of us, “You’re welcome.”
We pulled our phones out at the same time and started typing on the screen. The book actually existed, and it had over a thousand five star reviews, too.
For curiosity’s sake I looked at the four one star ones and started laughing when I saw that one of them was from a guy who was upset that a woman didn’t come with the book. Another one was from a woman who said she’d injured herself trying position number eleven, and the last two were from reviewers who said their copies had been printed back to front causing a lot of confusion between them and their partners.
With a quick glance at Lily, we both nodded and hit the one-click ordering button.
It wasn’t until I was finished that I noticed Levi’s movements underneath where I was sitting on him, like I was cutting off the circulation to his legs. As I moved to stand up so that the poor guy wouldn’t lose a limb, he caught me around the waist and pulled me closer to him.
Putting his mouth right beside my ear, he rumbled, “Best not to do that right now, baby.”
On his next twitch, the real reason for his issue became obvious when his erection pressed against me. I hadn’t been aware of Kari leaving us while I’d been looking at the book, or the fact that he could see what I was ordering over my shoulder. I’d been so fixated with the book and reviews, it hadn’t occurred to me to check what he was doing. I sure as shit knew now, though.
Cheeks flaming, I glanced over my shoulder at him, blushing even harder when he winked at me.
“So why did you guys decide to join us?” Luna asked the men, looking at the various non-alcoholic beverages on the table. “I thought it was going to be just us?”
I felt more than heard Levi’s growl, but it was Madix who answered the question. “The man who attacked Charlotte was seen not far from her apartment tonight looking like he was trying to find a way around the back of the building. When the authorities investigated it, though, he disappeared again.”
