MarcHe hadn't been able to get a flight out until just after lunch on Friday. To say his sister was pissed at him would be a mild understatement. Marc had been sitting at the airport for the better part of eighteen hours by the time he loaded the plane to head home, but misery had been his company. How Lisa could do something so vile to him left him breathless. Love hadn't been a part of his past and he was more than assured it wouldn't belong in his future.Nothing hurt more than the death of his father, but seeing his woman wrapped up in a much better version of him came really fucking close. The man she had in her office was older than her... by quite a bit. He reeked of wealth and the possessive way he held her, followed her, comforted her, gave Marc the impression that they had been together before - many times.He swallowed down his regret and got on the plane, finding his seat and sinking down into it. Slipping his headphones on, Marc cranked up the music, not giving two shits
Marc"Dayum," Drayer called out loudly before tapping his fingers on the table. "Yeah. I can handle a lot, but cheating isn't part of the deal. You want a threesome? Good with me, but no fucking around with someone when I'm not there.""You would have a threesome with a girl and let another dude be the other member?""Hell yeah, but she'd have to be my girl." Drayer took a drink of his beer and lifted the empty bottle, mouthing to someone behind Marc that he wanted another."Would you let the guy... you know...""What? No. I'd let him take her and touch her, but he better not touch me."Marc let out a sigh. "I was starting to wonder, dude.""Oh yeah? You interested in taking a girl together?""Um, fuck no. Lisa is the only girl I want, and if you or any other mother fucker thinks it wise to touch her, you got an ass whooping coming your way.""Did you kick that guy’s ass?""No. I didn't even think about it actually. I was so stunned, so fucking shocked." Marc ran his hands over his fa
LisaLisa got up early Saturday morning, her client showing being an hour away, but not until just after lunch. She would rather hang out in the office than stay at home and let her friends dote on her. They had tried to get her to watch a movie the night before but she came up with some research related to work that she needed to focus on. The truth was, that for the first time in her life, listening to sappy heart-breaking music and eating chocolate-covered gummy bears sounded better than anything else offered. She almost felt like a teenager again.Having dressed quickly in a cream-colored dress and a beige jacket and heels, Lisa left the house as the sun was rising. A quick glance over her shoulder before getting in the car left her scarred. The beauty of the sunrise over the edge of the bay was breathtaking. It was a moment that captured the essence of beauty. It pressed the desire to love even farther down her throat, as if every sappy commercial and love song on the radio weren
LisaIt was a hateful blow. She shouldn't have teased the poor guy back at the house showing, but he seemed to think he was going to move in and gain some side action with Lisa. Shit wasn't happening. Never, would she be someone's mistress. Sleeping with an unmarried man and having him dote on her was one thing, but having to play second to a man's wife would never happen."Don't you look stunning?" Michael stood as Lisa walked into the quaint restaurant, her stomach tight with knots over having to make a decision. She wasn't interested in a long-term relationship and Michael very much seemed to be. She was hoping that if anything, the conversation would turn to them and that Michael would agree to keep things casual.But could she really do that? Casual meant sex on a whim and vacations. It meant long nights of trying to remember to moan the right name.Lisa extended her hand as she stifled her thoughts, needing to remain present and dip into the hypothetical madness that had started
MarcMarc arrived at the club a little late, Dray's vibrant green mustang parked out front already. The place was overflowing with people, the bouncer nodding at Marc as he pushed past the guy arguing with the big guy at the front of the line."Sup, Marc." The bouncer nodded and lifted his hand."Hey buddy. History class mid-term next week. You ready?"The guy laughed and flipped Marc off. Marc chuckled and slipped into the sea of people. The club scene had always been so comfortable, so welcoming, but all of a sudden it didn't feel right. Moving around the dance floor, Marc spotted Drayer and a couple of other guys from the basketball team. There were two girls to every guy, which would have been a good sign in the past. Damn if Lisa didn't move across his mind, memories of her groans filling his ears above the wailing of the music.He stopped by the bar and ordered two shots and a beer. A pretty brunette to his left winked at him and he nodded in response, not at all interested. He
MarcMarc jerked the girl up by her hair and released her, spinning her to face him as his hands slid around the slender column of her neck, tilting her face toward him."You and I are going to the back room and you're going to get down on your knees for me. Aren't you?" he whispered against her mouth, licking at her full lips as she nodded her head, more than willing to do anything he wanted."Good girl." He kissed her hard and jerked from her as he moved through the crowd. The firm grasp he had on her hand only seemed to excite her more as she hurried beside him. She was smart enough not to say anything. If she spoke, the illusion would be broken. The poor girl deserved better than Marc having her suck him off while he pretended that she was Lisa in his mind.He almost stopped as they reached the back of the club, his heart beating wildly. Was he making a mistake? He and Lisa weren't together anymore, but damn if it didn't feel like he was the one cheating now. All his desire and ne
LisaFive Days Later"It's been a week and you still look like you're not sleeping, Lisa." Sicily walked toward Lisa as she walked back down the hall from changing.The week had been a long one. Most of it had been spent showing the same house, which was cause for far more travel than Lisa was up for. She hadn't slept a wink, the situation with Marc forcing her to contemplate going back to New York. It was almost like a splinter that had been removed, but the wound festered anyway.She needed to tell him that what he saw wasn't at all what had happened. If after talking to him, he still felt that she was a piece of trash, then she would leave. She would leave and find healing in the arms of a handsome billionaire that was ready to give her the world."I haven't. I can't seem to get Marc out of my thoughts." Lisa shrugged and walked to the refrigerator, pulling out a jug of orange juice and drinking from the carton. Sicily popped her butt and made a snide comment, but Lisa ignored her.
Lisa"Yes, I love him, but I'm honestly scared to death about it." Lisa shrugged, walking to the cooler beside the grill and pulling out a beer. "I've never been in love before.""Really? Wow. I thought all women were like looking for Mr. Right." Drake cocked his eyebrow as Jake shook his head."There are no two women that are alike, nugget head." He glanced over to Lisa. "Then you go after him, Lisa. This isn't the old days where the female has to wait on the male. Kari came after me and thank God she did. I would have missed the best thing that might ever have happened to me.""I can't, Jake. I already went to New York to see if we would work out.""And?" Jake asked, turning back to the grill as it flared up."Yeah... what happened? I'm interested to hear this." Drake reached out and took Lisa's beer, taking a long drink of it and handing it back. She shook her head at him and set it on the railing."It was far more than sex. Way more than just passion. We both fell hard, but I real
