Dating my Ex-Boyfriend’s Father.Chapter 8: unknowingly snagged a CEO .*ADDISON* “But, I mean… are you here with anyone? I don’t want to have stepped on any toes. I don’t want anyone dragging my hair out—”. “In case you forgot, my son just mentioned that I’m a divorcée, for the record.”“Right,” Addison says, wincing. “Sorry.”“I’m not here with anyone who would care,” Javan says. He tucks some hair behind his ear. Addison is surprised to see that his fingers are tattooed. “I’m just with some friends.”“Let me buy your next drink,” Addison says. “I mean, as a thank you. For helping me. Not to like, hit on you. I’m not doing that. You are older than me, gosh. Joshua mentioned 18 years older? I mean, I shouldn’t even be making passes at you. I wouldn’t do that. Well, I mean, I would, but—”“It’s fine,” Javan says, laughing and waving her off. “I get it. But you don’t have to do that.”‘“Are you sure? I feel like I owe you.”“I don’t like it when people owe me,” Javan says, shruggin
Dating My Ex-Boyfriend’s Father.Chapter 9: a show off between exes . “So, you didn’t tell me about your job?” Addison asks.“If you think your job is boring, mine will put you to sleep,” Javan says, smiling. He has a very kind face. “I head the whole activities of Roswell Corporations.”“You could have just said that you are—.”“I’m the CEO.” How she ended up getting the CEO to act as her fake boyfriend is still a mystery to Addison. “And you get to dress like that for work?” She asks, eyeing Javan’s flannel and cargo pants. She stares down at her own outfit—her rumpled dress shirt, her fitted grey slacks, her shiny boots. She looks awfully stuffy in comparison.“Yeah. The nice thing about being the boss of your job is that everything is more casual,” Javan says. “The dress code isn’t strict since I make them, and I never interact with our clients, pass messages through the personal assistant, so I don’t care about my tattoos.”Addison glances at the tattooed fingers wrapped ar
Dating My Ex-Boyfriend’s Father.Chapter 10: a ruse, and nothing more.“Let’s put on a show,” Addison says, grabbing Javan’s hand and tugging him onto the dance floor. Addison isn’t necessarily expecting Javan to be a very good dancer considering his age, but he takes the lead easily, his hands low on Addison’s hips, pulling her in close. It’s easy and effortless, and more than anything, it’s fun—the DJ is playing song after song after song, but Addison doesn’t feel like much time has passed at all. She’s losing herself to the music, just perfectly drunk enough to feel warm and buzzy and careless, and she all but forgets about the unpleasant situation that’s led her to dance with Javan in the first place. Her world has narrowed down to the heavy thrum of the bass, the flashing lights above them, and the feeling of Javan’s warm, solid body against her.Javan seems like he’s having fun, too. He’s all bright smiles and laughter and gentle touches, eyes solely focused on Addison as
Dating my Ex-Boyfriend’s Father.Chapter 11: now the play is over. “Do you think he’s convinced?” Addison asks, cocking her head. “That you’re my boyfriend?”“That depends,” Javan says. “How convinced do you want him to be?”Javan’s gaze flickers down to Addison’s lips.“Very,” She murmurs quietly.They’re barely dancing anymore, but Addison doesn’t care much. She hardly notices the bodies jostling them on all sides, dancing and laughing and pushing.Javan lifts a hand to Addison’s face, cupping her cheek. Addison tilts her chin up, leaning into the touch. Their noses brush. Neither of them move.“Is this more convincing?” Javan breathes.“Probably,” Addison says. “Convincing enough, then?”“No.”“No?”“No, I don’t think so.”“Mmm,” Javan says, his thumb tracing over Addison’s cheek. “You’re very demanding.”“And yet you’re still playing along.”Their noses brush again. Addison fists Javan’s flannel in both hands, squeezing the fabric bunched together in her palms. There’s nothin

After we, um… said goodbye.”“That you’re in love with him? Get in line! You’re going to have to join the other fifty women lined up around my apartment block everyday,” Skye says flatly.“No—no, it’s nothing like that,” Addison rushes to explain. “It’s just… there’s a gala I have to attend next week. He knows, the company gala and Joshua will be there because he’s well, the M.D. I didn’t think about it until my friend, um, my coworker, he said something. And it’s just—we’re supposed to bring a plus one, and if I show up by myself, I think it would be—”“I’m coming anyway,” Javan says with a tiny shrug, cutting her off.Addison blinks at him. “What?”“I said I’ll come.” Javan replies before adding it as an afterthought. “And I can be your date.” “Oh,” Addison says. “Okay. Um, cool.”The guy sitting next to Addison shoots
Dating My Ex-Boyfriend’s Father.Chapter 13: once a cheater, always a cheater . *JOSHUA ROSWELL* They’d moved to a private table, the number of drinks they’d consumed increasing as the night went on.“Listen,” Joshua found himself leaning across the table as he tried to explain. “You don’t know Addison. I don’t know why she’s with my Dad but let’s face it, she probably just wants his money.”“Why did she dump you then? Don’t you have the money that you implied that she wants too ?.” Rylie, the girl who was dancing with him earlier replied, the smile on her face growing wider at Joshua’s indignation.“Oh, you know what?” Joshua struggled to climb out of his seat, Rylie rushing to help steady his feet. “Screw you, okay? Just because it’s not important to you, doesn’t mean it’s not important to me, I’m trying to watch out for my dad, I’m not jealous or anything-”“Joshua, hey, Joshua, calm down,” Rylie grabbed his arms to stop his tirade. “You’re drunk.“So are you,” Joshua bit back b
Dating My Ex-Boyfriend’s Father.Chapter 14: karma doesn’t know anybody.Joshua sniffled, something tickling his nose. Instinctively, he brushed it away, his hand touching soft hair. He smiled, eyes still closed as he leaned in closer, inhaling the soft scent of vanilla and crisp green apples. Who was she? The slight sting across the back of his shoulders, coupled with the satisfied ache in his thighs, implied that - whoever she was - it was a great night.Sliding his arm around her tiny waist, he pulled her closer to his body, cock nestled against a warm, round ass. His head ached, but not unbearably so, as he allowed himself to drift back to sleep, the girl curled up in front of him.When he woke up again, she’d moved, rolling onto her belly, face turned away. Her breaths were even, and Joshua smiled, slipping out of bed to let her sleep while he washed up. Standing in the bathroom, he inspected the red marks across his neck, turning around and looking over his shoulder to s
