I sit at the bar in William’s nightclub, trying to drink away the images of Brandi fucking herself in my bed. I glance at the clock; it’s been nearly two hours since I fled my own house. She should be gone by now, which means I should drag my sorry ass back and go to bed.

“You look like shit.” I look at William’s smiling face, and by that toothy grin, I know he had something to do with this.

“Asshole,” I mumble loud enough for him to hear, which he finds amusing.

“I take it you found out who it was you were requesting.” I ignore his question and focus on the brown liquor in my glass, hoping maybe he’ll get the hint and leave me alone, but of course, he doesn’t.

“So, how’s the little minx? As reviews would have it, she’s one of the best. Every man who ends up in that room with her wants another go.” Men? How many men has she ended up in that room with? I want to ask William, but I know I have no right to pry into her private life.

“She’s good at what she does,” I reply before d

    Warning ** Non-consensual Sexual ContactBrandiLynn pulls away, gasping for air. He looks at me, a pained expression on his face, before turning back to the door. *Why do you look like I betrayed you when you’re the one who ran away?* I want to ask, but before I can, he speaks.“Uh, sorry, it seems I’m interrupting.” He turns to leave but pauses at the door. He looks back at me for a moment before exiting the room and closing the door. A strange feeling settles in my chest—an unfamiliar and uncomfortable one that I’d imagine is guilt if I had to guess. But should I feel guilty when I have no obligation to him?“Shit! Shit, I have to talk to him.” Lynn, who had been frozen from shock, jumps to her feet. She grabs her dress, throws it on, and chases after him. I can’t imagine what he’s thinking or how he feels right now, but it seems whenever he sees me, he goes running. I sigh; I know I shouldn’t be doing this. I have no interest in Lynn or any woman, for that matter. It was fun teasin

    GiovanniTwenty minutes earlierI sit at my desk, reviewing files and signing the last document, trying to keep my mind off that woman. It’s proving difficult because every time I close my eyes, there she is—in that room with Lynn, not me. Touching and kissing Lynn, not me. I clench my fist, struggling to banish the images from my head. This is what I wanted, right? For her to stay away from me. So why am I so irritated that she’s respecting my wishes? I frown and reach for a piece of paper when my phone rings. Seeing my baby girl’s name on the screen, I smile; maybe hearing from her will pull me back to reality and help me let go of that forbidden temptation.“Hey, baby girl, this is a nice surprise. You don’t usually call me while I’m working,” I say with a grin, but it fades when I hear her voice.“Dad.” The panic in her tone is unmistakable, and she never calls me “Dad.”“Baby, what’s wrong? Did that punk do something to my sweet girl? Don’t worry; I’ll grab my gun…”“Dad, no! It’s

    BrandiIt’s been a couple of weeks since I started school, and I’m adjusting to life pretty well with my classes and grades. Although I don’t have any friends, I’m happy—well, happier than I was a few months ago when I was with that monster. I look down at my book and smile as I listen to the English teacher speak. After a few minutes, he stops.“Okay, class, our time’s up. Please visit my office hours if you have any questions about the assignment.” Without wasting a second, I jump up, gather my books, and head straight for the door. I have math class in two hours, but I’m free right now. I think I’ll go to the library and catch up on some reading. I make my way through the hallways when I hear those three words that unravel me every time.“Cum for me.” I jerk back, half-expecting Colin to appear and snatch me up. My heart pounds in my chest as I look around.“What was that?”“Come to me,” the voice says again. When I look up, I realize it’s someone else, not talking to me. I breathe

    BrandiI pull up to the townhouse and park my car on the corner. Taking a deep breath, I brace myself to face my best friend for the first time in weeks. It’s been a day since Jameis dropped me off. I’ve spent the time getting my house in order and catching up on work projects. I’m lucky Amber picked up the slack when I left—everything’s still on track. I really should give her a raise, I think as I approach the door. This is a nice place; it seems Carlos is doing well for himself.I reach the door and press the doorbell. After a couple of minutes with no answer, I hesitate. I know Gianna’s home today—she doesn’t work Sundays. I wait another five minutes, then press the bell again. Still nothing. I pull out my new phone, which has the same number as my old one, and call her. After a few rings, she picks up.“Hey, G, are you home?”“Who is this?”“Gianna?”“Oh, is this supposed to be my best friend who dropped off the face of the earth?”“G…”“No, you don’t get to ‘G’ me.

    BrandiI stir suddenly from sleep, disoriented, as I scan the dark bedroom. Where am I? The room feels unfamiliar. I look down and see his hand around my waist, triggering memories of earlier. I came to see him, and we had sex. It was never my intention to visit him—I thought I’d gotten him out of my system after Houston—but whenever I see him, all I want is to be wrapped in his arms. I need to let him go, though. Today was nice, but it probably won’t happen again. I sigh; he’d never tell Gianna about us anyway. Shit! What time is it? I’m supposed to meet her at eight. I look around for my phone—oh, I left it in his office.I gently lift his hand from my waist and slip out of bed. I grab my shoes from the foot of the bed and turn to leave, then pause and return to his side. His face is barely visible, faintly lit by the light streaming in from outside. I lean down and kiss his forehead.“Take care of yourself, Mr.—Gio,” I whisper before slipping out of the room. This might be the last

    He glares at me as I grab a chair and place it in front of him. It’s taking every ounce of control not to put a bullet in his head and leave this place, but killing him would be too easy. I sit down.“Who paid you to do this? I’ll pay you ten times what they’re offering,” he pleads, finally grasping the gravity of his situation.“Ten times?” I ask, feigning interest.“I’ll pay you twenty—no, thirty times—please…” William bursts out laughing, and I join him.“You hear that, Gio? He’ll pay ten-thirty times,” William mocks.“I heard him, William. Guess his daddy’s loaded.”“That’s right—my father’s the mayor. We can give you anything you want. So if you let me—” Before he can finish, I shoot his left leg again. He howls in pain as I tuck my gun back into my waistband.“I could buy and sell you and your daddy fifty times over. Your money’s worthless here. How does it feel to finally face consequences, you fucking punk?”“What did I do? I didn’t do anything!” he protests. I exhale sharply.

    I size him up as he approaches—around 6’5”, muscular, undeniably attractive. A bitter taste of jealousy settles over me as he extends his hand. I shake it, squeezing harder than usual, but his face remains relaxed.“Good morning, Mr. Caputo. I hope I’m not imposing, but when Brandi said she was cooking, I had to show up. I love her cooking as much as I love her…” He trails off with a smile. As much as he loves her—what? They seem more intimate than just friends.What is she thinking, inviting a man she’s sleeping with to my house? I want to punch him, but I plaster on a fake smile instead.“Not at all. Follow me—the kitchen’s this way.” I clench my jaw as we enter. I head to my seat as she rises, greeting him with a smile. He wraps his arms around her and kisses her forehead. My blood boils, but I can’t react how I want.“Didn’t the hotel provide breakfast, greedy?” Brandi asks, feigning annoyance, though her smile betrays her delight.“You know I’m greedy for whatever you’re serving,

    BrandiI stand frozen, humiliation washing over me as I watch him kiss someone else. He pulls away, and I recognize her—Carina, from William’s sex shop or whatever it is. My fists clench, chest burning with jealousy. He’s ignored my calls and texts all day, yet here he is, kissing another woman after telling me he loves me. I frown as he gazes into her eyes with affection. Guess we don’t need to worry about telling Gianna anything. It’s for the best, I tell myself, hoping to believe it, but the anger and hurt linger. I should confront him, demand answers—but what would I say? Why are you kissing her? I don’t own him. Frowning, I head back to the bar, unwilling to make a fool of myself.“Why’d you turn back?” Jameis asks as I sit beside him.“He’s busy,” I mumble, signaling the bartender.“Scotch.” I order, drifting into thought as my gaze finds him across the room.“I can see he’s quite busy,” Jameis says with a smug grin—annoying me for the first time in ages. I sigh as the bartender

    BrandiI sit in the chair waiting for the makeup artist to finish her work as my heart thunders in my chest. This is it. I’m getting married—I glance at the clock. Twenty minutes. I have been prodded, plucked, and tucked all morning, and now all I have to do is put on my dress and walk down the aisle to the man I love.“You’re still doing her makeup?” G asks as the door opens with a bang, and she comes rushing in. She has been in a frenzy since this morning.“Hey, G. You look amazing,” I say as I admire the champagne maid-of-honor dress she’s wearing. She stops and grins, then twirls to give me the full picture.“Don’t I—wait. Don’t change the subject. Why is she still doing your makeup? It’s almost time.”“I asked her to change the eyeshadow to something lighter,” I explain.“Oh, but we only have eighteen minutes.”“I’m almost done,” the makeup artist states.G paces back and forth. “How soon is almost? We only have seventeen minutes, and we need to get her dress on and do last-minute

    MeanwhileBrandiI pull the covers tight and reach for a handful of popcorn as I focus on the TV. After cleaning yesterday, I have been flipping between crying and watching movies and TV shows. Except for two hours today, G convinced me to get my hair done because the wedding is tomorrow. I hope it is tomorrow, but I’m still uncertain what will happen because I haven’t spoken to Tes since I told him he has until Sunday to figure it out. I don’t know what he’s thinking, even suggesting postponing the wedding. How could he think I need more time? I’m so angry and hurt, I want to hate him. I should hate him right now for putting me through this, but I can’t. I miss him. I ache for his arms holding me. I miss his smile in the morning. I miss our family. I sniff as tears stain my cheeks.“Are you okay? Do you need anything? Ice cream?” Gia asks, pushing the tub of butter pecan toward me. I sigh, grab the spoon, and take a big bite. “Better?”I nod before taking another bite. “Your father is

    GiannaI pull in through the gate and look around, stunned at the lawn covered in furniture. What is all this? I wonder as I park the car. Are they moving? Neither Dad nor B said anything before this. I slip out of the car and grab my purse before heading to the door, when I see Martha approaching.“Ms. Gia,” she says, smiling when she sees me.“Hey, Martha. Are Papi and B moving?”She shakes her head. “Mrs. Caputo woke up this morning, asked us to move the furniture outside, and started cleaning,” she explains.Mrs. Who? I furrow my brows when I realize she is talking about B. I guess she will be Mrs. Caputo in a couple of days. It feels so strange for her to marry Papi, but now I’m okay with it—happy even, since he makes her happy, and they gave me two of the cutest brothers in the world. I smile, thinking of their chubby cheeks.“Ms. Gia?” Martha calls, pulling me from my thoughts.“Oh, B asked you to move them out?” She nods.“She was in a frenzy this morning about getting the hous

    BrandiTwenty minutes agoI examine the sample of birch wood on my desk. I like it, but I’m not in love with it like I am with the soft maple. I sigh. Why did the supplier have a shortage of the only wood I like? Well, it doesn’t matter. I have to choose one of these before the call. Shannon likes the ash, but ash is not durable enough, and I want people to pass these on to their kids, not throw them out.I need another opinion. Maybe I should have had Tes stop by with dinner and help me decide. I pick up my phone to call him but hesitate when I remember how tired he was today. Tes is already stretched thin with taking care of the boys, last-minute wedding prep, and getting his company ready for his absence during our honeymoon. Although he never complains, I’m sure he is exhausted. His only being able to have sex once last night is proof. That man never falls asleep before going at it at least twice.It’s a good thing this project is almost complete. Once we’re done picking the wood,

    I need to find a doctor, but how do I do it on such short notice? I pull out my phone to call Jorge, my assistant.“Good morning, Boss. Are you coming into the office today?”“No. Jorge, I need a doctor.”“Oh, for what? Is Mrs. okay? My nephews?” he says, reacting as his usual dramatic self.“Fenice is fine, and so are the boys. I pulled my back last night and need to get it checked out. Can you find me a doctor? I need it today.”“I will be right on it.”“Thank you.”“You know, I had a problem once. I was in Colorado when my boyfriend at the time got a little rough. He was hitting it from the back. He can be a little rough.”“Jorge, is there a point to this story?”“Oh, right. So my back gave out. We were snowed in, so I couldn’t see a doctor. I did yoga for two days. My back felt brand new by the time we left.”“So you’re saying I should try yoga?”“Exactly. I bet it will have you feeling brand new, or you can go see those pill pushers who’ll pump you full of drugs and overcharge you

    GiovanniWilliam pulls into the driveway and sighs. We chased her as far as the traffic cameras could track, but we eventually reached a dead end when she took a back road with no cameras. She’s smart, I give her that, and she is also striking to look at. I can see why William is enamored with her beauty, even though she is a thief.“What did she say to you?”“Huh?” I furrow my brows.“Brandi said she found you two together. Did she try to sleep with you?” he asks through clenched teeth. I can tell the thought of that pisses him off.“She walked in and pretended to be lost, then she fainted so I would catch her. I told her to drop the act, and Fenice walked in. I don’t know if she would have tried.” My voice trails off as I see him getting noticeably angrier.“Don’t worry. You’ll find her.”“How many men will she have fucked and used by then?” His eyes flash angrily.“What does it matter?”“They are touching something that’s mine—” His voice trails off when he realizes what he’s saying

    I push the stroller towards the store, about to go meet Amber and G, who invited themselves last minute when she called this morning.“B,” I hear her call from behind. I turn slightly and see her coming fast, waving.“You brought them!” she squeals after seeing the stroller.“You wanted to see them. Here you go.” I push the stroller towards her and hand her their bag.“What’s all this?”“You asked me to bring them, so you’re going to look after them. I’m here to shop. Boys, your big sister will take care of you. Be nice,” I say, blowing each a kiss and then heading through the door of Hermès.“Wait. I don’t know—” I hear her behind me. “B, you can’t do this.” I sigh as she struggles to open the door while pushing the stroller. I roll my eyes, walk back to the door, and hold it open while she pushes it inside.“Why didn’t you bring one of the nannies?”“They are off on weekends when Tes and I are free. You wanted me to bring them, so you’re the nanny today.”“What? All I wanted to do wa

    Brandi“Tes, come on.” I fold my arms as I wait for him to exit the car. We went shopping, and he agreed we would each pick an outfit we wanted the other to wear, and we got to choose the occasion it would be worn. He picked out a white dress and a matching lingerie set. The dress is to be worn to his birthday dinner next Tuesday, and the lingerie for tonight. I picked an outfit for our date in the park: dark-washed jeans, a tight-fitting t-shirt with a black leather jacket, and combat boots. He has been complaining since he stepped out of the dressing room, but a deal is a deal.“Tes, come on,” I call again, growing impatient.“I don’t think this is a good idea. I should go home and change,” he says, still sitting in the car.“We made a deal. You picked my dress, and that string you want me wearing tonight. If you want to see me wear that tonight, come out of the car.” He frowns as he steps out.I smile as I look at him. He does not know how good he looks, but I’m sure he’ll turn a fe

    BrandiI take a sip of the shot, trying to pace myself because I already feel a little too good, and I know I’m on my way to being drunk for the first time in my life. I look at the shot and then watch as Gianna downs another one. Tonight reminds me of high school when she would get wasted, so I would have to take care of her. I guess some things never change. I put the glass down on the bar top.“No, no, no. What are you doing?”“I have already had five. You’re on your seventh.”“Eight. I brought you here to get drunk and party our asses off.”“One of us needs to stay sober and make sure nothing happens.”“We’re in Uncle William’s club, surrounded by security. Nothing will happen.”“You never know—”“B, he’s gone. You can relax,” she says as she picks up and hands me the shot.She doesn’t say another word; instead, she turns back to the bar and orders more shots. I look at the shot in my hand as her words play in my head. I know she is talking about Colin. It’s true that in the past,
