“Yeah.” I hold Mia to me and we start walking. I follow Neil’s lead. I think he might lead me outside where a car would be waiting. Instead, he takes me down, down into an underground garage. Two dozen cars of various sizes and colors line the room. Some look like older models than others, but all
I smell it before I really think about why Mia is likely so upset. It’s thunder storming, Neil’s driving crazy, it’s late and she’s still up and outside. She has any number of reasons to be crying. But that smell. Yeah, that’s definitely poop. And it is pungent. Even in the dark car, lit only

He wanted to gag me with his cock before. Will he want to gag me with some kind of tie, instead, when he fucks me? Archer wants his partners loud. Does Neil want me to try to control myself? He has to know it’s a losing battle. No, if he’s gagging me, maybe he’s the one who wants to control my
I hide the book behind my back. Beau gives me a flat look that screams, Really? Archer still looks like he wants to set the building on fire. “Need some tips, Nanny?” Beau asks. “That little Tide boy not pleasing you enough?” Tide? What the hell does Tide have to do with anything? “None of y
