Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 52
There was nothing wrong with putting a bit of OPI on your toes while watching Ocean’s Eleven on a Friday night. But paying someone else to paint my nails? Come on.“This is utterly ridiculous.” I stood up from the chair with my newly cut, blow-dried, salon-soft hair and ran my fingers through it.“Mhmm.” Leah looked at me. “Looks like you’re hating it.”I sighed and dropped my hand. “Can we go now?”“No. Conor told me I have to keep you here until . . .” She glanced at the clock. “Three o’clock. So another two hours.”I grunted and sat in the pedicure chair next to her. After another awkward night sharing a bed and waking up in his arms, I decided this morning that I was sleeping in my own bed tonight.Alone.“And why am I being kicked out of my own house?”Leah shrugged. “I don’t know, Chloe. He just said to keep you away until three, and since he’s paying, I’m all for it.”“Did you even try to find out?”“I did. He started ignoring me after, like, the tenth time I asked. I think he

Leah choked in an attempt to hide her laugh. Only because she knew exactly what I was doing.So maybe flirting with the security was a little underhanded and immature, but Conor wanted to fuck with the media. That was exactly what I was doing . . . with the added bonus of fucking with him, too.Two can play this game.“You aren’t from around here, are you?” I asked him.“Chloe.” Ajay said my name sharply, a warning in it.“I’m making conversation. You expect me to sit here for almost an hour and not talk to anyone? I certainly ain’t talkin’ to these pains in the ass.” I nodded toward the paparazzi.One got a little too close, and Ajay stepped forward threateningly. The photographer didn’t move, and I could see the camera lens in my peripheral vision.“I hope you got a strap on that thing, because if it ain’t out of my face in the next ten seconds you’ll be pickin’ it up off the floor,” I snapped.He scuttled back and I glared at the line. Nobody moved aside from a scuffle in the back,

“What—why?” I breathed, my eyes filling with tears.I turned to look at him. He shrugged, taking a deep breath and looking around.“Because,” was all he said again.“No, goddammit, Conor! Tell me why!”“I wanted it to feel like home,” he finally said. “I wanted you and Milka to have your own spaces, somewhere you could chill. Your dad’s stuff is packed in the garage for when you’re ready to sort through it.”I swallowed and looked around the room again.“I wanted you to have a place to be Chloe.”I spinned into him and grabbed him. I pushed my lips up against his, sliding my hands into his hair. He wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me against him.Our lips moved together slowly but firmly. I let my tongue flick against his bottom lip. The simple movement flipped a switch, and the kiss became deeper, his fingers digging into my hips a little harder.We both stepped back towards the bed at the same time, our feet tangling, and we fell back. He leaned over me, breathing heavily,

This was more, because I could feel it buzzing through me.“Conor.” My name fell from her lips in a whispered plea.Fuck.Chloe droppee her legs and reached down to remove her panties. I leaned up on my hands as she did and looked down, watching her slide the lace over her legs. She kicked them off and snapped the waistband of my boxers.“Please.”“Shit.” I practically yanked my underwear off and pushed her up the bed.She gasped into my mouth when I kissed her hard, and I let my tongue fall between her lips. She lifted her legs, opening them wide, and scraped her nails down my sides.Her hand sneaked between us and she wrapped her fingers around my throbbing cock, bringing me closer to her wet pussy.I didn’t need another fucking invitation.I covered one of her ass cheeks with my hand and tilted her hips up. Slowly I pushed into her, feeling her muscles clench around me as I entered her fully. She gasped, a tiny, high-pitched sound at the end of it, and twined her fingers deep into

“Why? Because she had your kid? You really think she’s gonna stick around, Con? She didn’t before. She didn’t give a fuck then. What makes you think she will this time?”Bray grabbed my arm as my fist swung back. “Whoa. Aiden, out of line, man.”“I’m just looking out for him.” Aiden said it to Bray, but his eyes were fixed on mine. “The twins might be happy to watch her hurt you again, Con, but I ain’t gonna do it.”He was baiting me and I fucking knew it. I was shaking with anger, because fuck. No one gets to talk about Chloe that way. No. One.“Pipe the hell down, dickhead,” Titus said calmly, stepping between us and pushing Aiden back. “Chloe’s the mother of that little girl you’ve spent the last few days on the beach with. Like Mom said, we don’t have to like her much right now, but we’ll respect her. That means even when she ain’t around. If you can’t talk civilly about her, don’t say a damn word.”“Next time I won’t stop him,” Bray warned him. “I’ve got half a mind to let him at

“Toys in the box,” he bargained, holding the packet up where she couldn’t reach it.Milka pouted.“Nope.” He shook his head. “Put some away. I’ll help you. Here.” He threw the candy in my lap and wrestled Milka to the floor.She giggled loudly followed by a shriek when he tickled her sides. My lips twitched in amusement. I licked my lips to hide it but failed. Damn, it was not tidying, but she was on cloud nine.“Dadda, no, no, no,” Milka shrieked through her high-pitched laughs.“Yeah, Dadda, thought you were tidying?”Conor stopped and looked up at me. “Eh, I prefer the fun stuff.”“You’re not getting the candy until you pick up.” I crossed my arms, the packet in my hand.Conor grabbed two toys. He handed one to Milka and they both chunked them in the direction of the toy box. “There,” he said. “Picked up.”“Honestly? That’s your idea of tidying?”“Yep. Now give me the candy.” He gets on all fours and makes a swipe for it.I got up and skipped away, dangling the candy over my head.

He blinked and turned his face towards mine. His expression was completely blank for a moment, then his lips twitched at one side. “Yep.”“It doesn’t count if you only just decided.”“Who said I just decided?”“The vacant look on your face.”“I was surprised you asked.”“Of course I asked. I’m a female. Why do you think you can get things past me?”“Oh, shut up.” He pushed me down by the shoulders. “Just yes or no, princess. It’s not a hard question.”“You never asked me a question!”“I—” He shut his mouth. “Fine. Chloe, will you go to dinner with me tonight, please?”I chewed the inside of my lip. I wasn’t being flippant about last time. And although our trip to the store was relatively uneventful, unless you count the magazine cover of us kissing the next day, I was still wary.While the media vultures were not as obsessive as they were before Dirty J.’s manager confirmed the “story,” they were still watching us like hawks in case we bring Milka out. As it was, we ferried her betwee

Oh, hell.She drew in a sharp breath at my words.My true words. We both knew it. The more we used to argue, the more desperate and rough our inevitable make-up sex was. The angrier we were, the tighter we were wound, the more we needed the release.Sex wasn’t a problem solver, but it always paved the way for us to settle things. They were always settled naked and cuddling, but they were still settled.The issue with now was that there was so much tension and so many unspoken words that both of us were wounded tightly all the time. At least I was. There wasn’t a second where I didn’t want to grab her and kiss her, just because I needed some of that frustration to disintegrate against her sweet mouth.But that ends tonight. The unspoken words will no longer be unspoken. We had a thousand things we needed to say that will only end explosively if we talked in private. I knew us so well.Despite Milka, despite the time passed, we were still us.We were just buried beneath a bunch of bulls

I was kind of annoyed at his short response, but I was equally amused at his smugness about it. And his amusement—damn, I wanted to laugh while I slap it off his handsome face.For the first time, it stroke me that this fake relationship could be rather dangerous.I stayed quiet as we drove down the country road that’ll take us to Percival Town, a couple of miles up the coast. I had been before—it was the stereotypical little beach town, more so than Santa Monica, even—but it wasn’t my favorite place. For one, the size of the town and its population made Santa Monica looked like a minuscule village unworthy of a supermarket or school of its own, and almost everyone who lived there acted like they were from a city, when they were not.We also had a high school football rivalry, so that could play in, especially since I was head cheerleader and may or may not have gotten into a catfight with Percival’s head cheerleader in senior year.Who also happened to be Titus’s girlfriend at the tim

IVANA“You’re going out with Titus James? Like on a date? Or out out? Or just as friends?” Sussy’s eyes bugged out of her head. “And you didn’t invite me?”I paused from applying my mascara and looked at her incredulous expression in the mirror. “Come right on into my room, Sus. It was okay. I only might have been naked, or you know, masturbating or something.”“That’s gross.”“So is your obsession with Dirty J.” I gave her a sarcastic smile and went back to my makeup. “But no, it is not a date.”“Uh-huh . . .” she trailed off, and when I screwed my mascara brush back into the tube, she shoved her phone at me. “Then why does Twitter say you’re his girlfriend?”I shrugged and brushed my bangs out. “I saw this meme on Facebook that said Abraham Lincoln once said you shouldn’t believe everything you read on the Internet.”My sister looked at me like I was dumb. “The Internet was invented after Lincoln died.”“Precisely. It’s called sarcasm.” I rolled my eyes and grabbed my phone from the

“You really want me to say it again?”She rubbed her hand down her face. “Are you insane? She hates you!”I smirked.“Titus . . .” She rolled her eyes. “Okay, obviously not that much, but a fake relationship? Do you even know what you’ve gotten yourself into?”“Yep,” Aiden replied for me. “Because unlike the rest of us, he’s the only one who’s had a successful relationship.”“As evidenced by the fact I am currently single,” I drawled sarcastically at my big brother. “Get a load of that success!”“Don’t be a little prick.”“Every big prick needs a little one.”“Dollars!” Milka shrieked, stomping across the room with her hand out and her chubby fingers clenching in a “gimme” motion. Dutifully, we both dug dollar bills out of our pockets and handed them over. “Tankoo.” She narrowed her bright blue eyes, then pointed at the space between us. “No fight! Bad Uncy Aid and Uncy Titus!”Chloe smiled behind her glass of juice.“She’s real bossy, you know that, right?” I looked at Chloe. “She’s

TITUSHoly. Shit.I was never, ever fucking putting this chick on the back of my bike ever again.If her arms around me wasn’t bad enough, it was her tits pressed solidly against my back and the fact I knew her pussy was rubbing my ass. Fuck. And in the tiny shorts she was wearing right now? It was a mega mindfuck.In fact, it was a fuck, fuck, fuck, kinda situation.As in why the fuck did I kiss her this morning? Why the hell did I bring her close just to shut her ex up? I shouldn’t give a shit. I should’ve taken the damn coffees, paid, and gotten the hell outta Dodge. But no. I had to plant some fucking seeds in Dodge, didn’t I? And then I had to water them by telling that douchebag that I’m her boyfriend.I had the funniest feeling that wasn’t gonna go down well.In fact, I was almost certain it was gonna go down like a shit ton of loose bricks in an earthquake.Still, though—I could feel her arms wrapped around me tightly, holding her body flush against mine, and it was different

“I always wondered what it’d be like to fuck you. Now I know.”“Isn’t this a conversation for your right hand?”“No, but it could be for yours.”“Only if that hand is around your neck.” I snatched said hand out of his and placed it on my hip. “What do you want? Why are you here?”“Come with me,” he said, his shoulders rising and falling. “Please?”“A James boy saying please? Did I die and go to hell? ’Cause y’all sure ain’t goin’ to heaven.”His lips twitched. “Vanny.”I took two steps away from him.“Ivana,” he corrected himself. “Come on. Just for ten minutes.”“Take me home,” I demanded, turning back to him. “Let me get changed, and then I’ll consider it.”He took a deep breath, his eyes intent on me as he obviously considered it. “Fine.” He grabbed my hand once more and tugged me between two buildings and onto Main Street.I shielded my eyes from the sunlight before sliding my sunglasses down as we stepped from the shadows created by the alleyway, almost falling after him. He led

“A frying pan to the face? Sure. Be my guest.”“Coffee, Ivana. I’d like to keep my job.”“Nah, it’s okay. I’ve gotta face him sometime.”“Ken!” She yelled into the kitchen at the chef. “Keep the fryin’ pans away from Jessie here!”“Yes, ma’am,” he called back, laughing.I might have a temper.“Y’all are like pins and needles in my ass,” I mumbled, finishing my coffee and putting the mug into the empty dishwasher. Adrina’s laugh rung through the café as she danced her way to the front door with the key dangling from her pointer finger.Chelsea was the first person through the door, and I blinked harshly. “Don’t look at me like that,” she hissed, stalking toward me. “You didn’t come home last night, did you?”“Say it a bit louder, Chels. I’m not sure my mom heard you.”She rolled her eyes and, glancing at the people behind her, ordered. “Latte, please, to go.” One more glance as I grabbed the takeout cup and she continued, “Why didn’t you text me? You should have texted me!”“Dude, seri

IVANAIt shouldn’t bother me.But, really, he must have a serious lack of class to just disappear while I slept.What kind of son of a bitch is Titus James? He’s sure as hell a disrespectful little shit, his sexual promises be damned. The fact he delivered on them can be damned, too.He’s real lucky I’m the kind of girl who sticks to her word. When I said no stories, no second times, no whatever it was I said while under the influence of cosmos, I meant it.As long as we never have to see each other again. That’d be fabulous. So basically, Santa Monica needed to expand by another few thousand people. Several thousand would be great. Like, twenty thousand.The chances of this happening are, I know, slim. But a girl can dream. A girl’s gotta dream if she wants to stay sane.A last-minute tour for Dirty J. would be epic. An impromptu concert on Mars would be even more epic.Jesus, what the heck was I thinking? Sleeping with Titus James? Did I have a temporary lapse in sanity last night?

Blondie’s smile dropped. “Yeah. Why? She your assistant or somethin’?”I smirked. “No, but I’m hirin’.”“Well, how about this.” She stepped forward and ran her finger down my arm. “I give you my number, and when you’re ready to interview, you can call me.”“Or how about you come back here this time next week and if I’m standing right here, you’ll know you got the job.” My lips tugged up even more.Agreeing to call a girl.Fuck. That.That was an amateur move.“Well played,” she whispered in my ear before stalking past me, making sure her tits brush my arm. Her hard, fake tits.I prefer real.The bathroom door opened and I looked up straight into the eyes of . . . my little sister. Leah took a deep breath and held her hand up at me, touching two fingers to her temples. Her ponytail swung as she shook her head. “Aw, hell no. I am not going to think about the fact that I just helped one of my best friends out of Spanx so she can fuck my brother.”She opened her eyes, and I scratched the

TITUSIvana Lawson reached back and grasped my forearm firmly, shoving my arm away from her like I was fire and she was gasoline. “I mind you touching me,” she replied. “What’s takin’ so long?” she yelled to the bartender.“Chill out, Ivana,” I murmured, moving closer to her and meeting the bartender’s eyes. “Can you hurry with that, babe?”She nodded and within two seconds, a cocktail glass full of perfectly red-pink liquid was placed in front of us.“That’s—”“And a bottle of Budweiser, thanks,” I demanded before she said the price. “Put it on my tab.”“I can pay for my own drink,” Ivana argued, her eyes sparking with defiance.“Sure you can, but that don’t mean you’re gonna.”“It means I will.” She riffled in her purse and slammed a ten into my chest. “Thank you, Titus, but no thank you.”I took the crisp bill from her hand and crumpled it up, crooking my finger in the collar of her dress. She gaped at me in disbelief as I pulled the fabric from her body and dropped the balled-up n
