MAVERICKI couldn’t believe Lake forgot that we had an event to attend if Venus did not remind us—the 3rd anniversary of Infinite Media Inc.Thankfully, he knew a lot of people and just snapped his fingers, and everything he needed was laid down before him, like the gown I was wearing—a beautiful black backless beaded couture dress. Then, I put on a diamond set to complement the look.I went downstairs, and Lake was fixing his bow tie. “Damn, you look hot.”He stilled, lifted his gaze, and stared at me for seconds. His eyes twinkled, and his lips spread into a full-blown smile.He was handsome and even had the time to trim his hair. It touched a little bit the collar of his black tux, but the hairstyle suited him.“I think that’s my line.” He strolled his gaze at me, from head to toe, before taking my hand and kissing it. “Damn, Maverick.”I waited for him to continue, but he chuckled, shaking his head.“I’ve never been speechless and forgot adjectives to describe how beautiful you ar
MAVERICK“Lake Winston. I heard you get married. Who’s the poor girl?” He sided glance at me, smirking before they engulfed each other in a big bear hug.“My wife, Maverick. Maverick, this is Cenric Wollf.”“The crypto guy.” I clamped my mouth instantly as I extended my hand for a handshake, and they laughed as they found me calling him the crypto guy funny.“Right, that’s me.” He shook my hand firmly. “Nice to meet you, Maverick. This is my wife, Sadie.”After our pleasantries, another couple came. The former notorious playboy Mykel Creed and his wife Adley, the heiress to Kross Industries. How many billionaires did I have to meet tonight? They were all young, gorgeous, and married. Well, except Moses, who gracefully sat beside me at our table in peace.“How are you, honey?”“Grateful and seemingly small.”“Half of these people are superficial, miserable, and problematic. Not everyone with money is happy. When I look at you and my nephew, you both are happy. And your relationship wit
LAKEWe barely made it to the suite. We were all over each other.The second Maverick’s dress dropped to the floor, and her jewelry fell to the table. I scooped her up in bridal style and threw her on the bed.“Take off your panties and bra.” I fumbled to strip off my tux, pants, and socks. Then my shoes came off last.She was magnificent in bed, like a classic Hollywood beauty. I never doubted my wife was beautiful and hot, but tonight she was fucking hot.“Fuck.” My body was on fire. My cock was alive and free. I gripped my hard length as she slipped her hand between her thighs and began pleasuring herself.My heart raced at a different speed as I watched her head fall back against the mattress.One moment, I was out of bed, and the next second, I was on top of her, pinning her wrists above her head, parting her thighs with my knee, and then I captured her mouth with mine in a brutal, hard kiss.At this moment, lust instantly made my head spin. I positioned my cock on her pussy, rub
MAVERICK“Just one more shot, Mave. That’s all I need.” Cooper was running out of patience.We’d been shooting for the last piece of the collection for hours, and he seemed to be unable to get the perfect angle or image he wanted from me.“My facial muscles are cramping. What is it that you want?” I pouted.He blew a breath, his hands on his hips as he shook his head. “Your head is not in the game. And this is how artists and models lost their job. You need to focus and always keep your head, heart, and body presence. Professional photographers don’t have time for your drama. Get your head in the game, Maverick.”I stretched my arms and legs, went to pick up the brush, and retouched my nose. “What exactly are you looking for?”“I want a happy face, a real happy face with eyes shining, a perfect smile like you’re in love and facing the love of your life because this piece is beautiful on you.”I sat back on the chair and drew a deep breath. “I think I’m in love with Lake.”Cooper never
LAKEAs soon as Terzo agreed to meet me, and he was clearly in town for some business, I let Rusher meet with my supposed business meeting.We arrived at the address, a warehouse downtown. Owen and the other men from Osmium checked the area before they allowed me to get inside the warehouse full of boxes and crates. I didn’t know if these products were even legal, and I preferred not to get involved by knowing any information.“The best place to do your dirty deeds.”Terzo gave the guy the papers in his hand. “Deliver it today. I don’t want any delays, Jose.”“Yes, boss.” Jose, in his late forties, left, ordering other men to load boxes into the delivery truck.“Dirty deeds? This is legal, Winston. The wine just arrived from Italy yesterday from a family-owned vineyard. The rest are cheese and organic olive oils. I’ll give some to your wife.” He stole a glance at at least five men outside while Owen was standing behind me. “Do you have to bring men with you?”“I don’t know you, and I
MAVERICKI felt like I gave my trust to people too quickly.I just realized that Terzo had a lot of skeletons in his closet, and he couldn’t share them with me. And it was a red flag.We couldn’t be friends, and the way he reacted earlier was darker and scarier, and I had this feeling that he knew me better than he let on.“Mrs. Winston.” Owen startled me as I walked away from the restaurant.I stopped to a halt, staring at Owen. “That was fast.”The door to the backseat opened. Before I could get in, someone just called my name.I turned around, but Owen was blocking my view.“Maverick,” Terzo called my name again. “You left your bag.” He followed with my bag in his hand.“Oh. Thanks.” I took it from him.“I’m sorry our dinner didn’t go well. I hope I did not ruin your night. I’m still up for a second dinner if you give me a second chance, and I’m willing to tell you my story.”“Yeah. Raincheck for the second dinner?”He nodded. “Of course. Good night, Maverick.”I watched him walk a
LAKE“Before your mind went somewhere else, the answer is no. Terzo did not steal or sleep with my girlfriend.”I put her in the tub with generous milk products and rose and lavender oils. I also brought a glass of wine so she could relax, but as I expected, she grilled me with many questions I couldn’t answer.“Figures.”“I just met him days ago, Maverick. I don’t know him personally other than what I already told you. Why are you interested in this guy?”She arched a brow at me. “Don’t give me that look. I don’t have feelings for him. I feel like we have a deeper connection—”I groaned in annoyance because I had a pretty good idea it was the same blood running through their veins.“What the fuck is that supposed to mean? Should I be worried?” It was absurd. I knew why, but she better not know it or, at least not at this moment.She grabbed the wine by the stem, swirled it, sniffed it, and sipped it. My gaze dropped to her long, elegant neck as she swallowed it down and then to her c
MAVERICKI denied him to have sex with me last night. I woke up before him with the guilt settling in my chest. Right now, the only thing I wanted to do was to make up for him.Lake was only in his boxers, giving me easy access to do what pleased him.With my heart racing in anticipation, I slightly tugged his boxers down his thighs, and his semi-erect cock came free. I positioned myself, gripped it with my hand, and began stroking, and it instantly hardened in my palm, so intimidating and thick.Lake stirred, inhaling an audible breath. I opened my mouth, flattened my tongue, and licked him from its base to its head.“Baby.” A groan of satisfaction rumbled from his chest, and his fingers slid right into my hair, massaging my scalp. Then I sucked his balls into my mouth and drew back.“Fuck, baby.” His grip tightened around my hair, his thighs trembling, and his chest rose and fell, and I could tell that he liked it. And I liked it, too.I felt the wetness between my thighs, and the a
