"Did I ask for an observation?" I inquired.

"And as much as we tolerate Pete-which isn't much in my book and a decent amount in yours-you shouldn't be so worried about his older sibling.".

In the back of my mind, I realized that he was correct, yet I would not admit it. I was selfish but not a sociopath, unlike him. I still felt guilty about other people.

"Come on, are you going to do it or not?" I snapped.

"I'll do it, but you're going to owe me, and I always collect," Shane said.

"Yes, I remember. Forty-two percent interest, isn't it?"

"Fifty percent in your case, since I don't like your face."

I hung up the phone before he could finish what other insults he had to give. I had sold my soul to the devil just to spite two worthless bitches I didn't even know.

And I didn't regret it for one second.

I was the sole child. My parents liked each other so much that they did not have leftovers to share with anyone else, and therefore, I never had the pleasure of dislocating someone's nose or

    "That went well." Shane was the first to recover from the last few minutes, popping a shrimp into his mouth.Timothy fidgeted in her seat. I shot Pete a withering glance."What?" Pete yelled in my face. "I said what everybody sitting at this table is aware of. My sister is a damn genius. Why can't she—" "Because she needs to be able to look back and like the ride, not just the freaking destination," I yelled. I was on my feet, though I had no recollection of my brain having sent my legs the signal. "Take it from a guy who spent half his twenties as your sidekick—now, not everyone wants to live in your shadow, even if that shadow comes with nice perks. You should be proud of her for having to do this on her own. You're right. She is genius. But not because she's book smart or whatever.Because she's so independent."Rhyland is right." Timothy bit down on her bottom lip. "You've been so used to defending Klaus since your father's days, somewhere along the way, you forgot that it was tim

    "Y-y-yes." She could barely stutter the word.I was half-fucking her slowly under the table with my finger, punishing her for her little trick. If she thought she was being rewarded with an orgasm, she had another thing coming.Her cheeks were flushed a deep pink, her lips parted in desire, every muscle in her body strained. "I-I gave him a ch-chance. And he c-came through." Her hips ground, hungry for more of my touch. She was near. I could feel it."Well, someone had to, darling." I dropped a casual kiss on her cheek, giving her swollen clit a quick brush with my thumb before I withdrew from her panties in a single smooth move. She quite literally yelped in frustration."And you, Ambrose?" Bruce asked Pete. "How'd you deal with their matchup?""Not good," Pete growled menacingly. "But I love my wife and daughter too much to spend the rest of my life in jail for first-degree murder.""Honey, you have to taste this special sauce." I drew the finger that had just been inside Klaus down

    Bruce's eyebrows shot off his forehead. "Putting the cart before the horse, I see. I didn't accept anything y-""You will." I cut him off. "As soon as we pull out of your door after our next test drive. You know it. I know it. It's a good deal."Tate had helped me draft it, i.e., I was invincible and could screw Bruce six ways to Sunday if something went wrong. Of course, I didn't expect it. Bruce had a whole floor to house his litigation staff. But I was also sure they were all nepo recruits from his small town, so who's to judge their level of incompetence?We sat with the others at the table. Fine drinks, cocktails, and cuisine began pouring into our section of the room in continuous amounts. Lobster rolls, Maine crab cakes, shrimp alfredo, and croissant lobster butter filled. I sat next to Klaus and ran my hand into her lap, tightening it. Reality was keeping herself occupied these past two days hadn't done anything in removing her from my thoughts.How much is the estimated annua

    That was a mercy for me. I hadn't asked Cosmos about it—I went out of my way not to care about Gravity when she was in my line of vision—but I did not leave that asshole alone with the kid."Mr. Mikasa." A woman with an iPad and a headset microphone approached us. "They're ready to have you come on stage." She dragged her finger across the screen. "You've got the words, correct? 'Grill or no grill, I'm happy to unveil the Grill Deal'?"Pete nodded behind her.Shane screwed up his face. "When does the name stop sounding so cringeworthy?""Never is my guess." Kieran screwed up his face.Timothy glared at the both of them.It so happened that Klaus did not join the Times Square party. Neither did Bruce and his wife. But I stood by and watched my best friend kill it with the crowd, signing his cookbooks, taking photos with fans, and peddling five thousand units of that ridiculous kit, before we all succumbed to the after-party at Pete's restaurant, Mikasa, over Bryant Park, a rooftop eate

    I'm going to do my best here, Cosmos. I mean, who doesn't enjoy a woman who busts their balls on an hourly basis?The night flew by too fast, Flinn settling the bill and leaving a large tip. I never judged books by their covers, but I always judged people based on the tip they left. A lot can be gleaned about a person from how they treat people who serve them.The instant Flinn and I entered the elevator, he pushed me against the wall with a playful shove. He pinned me between his hands at the back and the railing, one of his hands reaching up from the banister. He lifted my chin with his finger to bring it level with his eyes."Hello, smart mouth.""Hello, ass—"He silenced the rest of what I'd said with a hot, juicy kiss. There was brutal greed in the twists of his tongue, in the engulfment of his whole mouth over mine. His hands went from the railings to the cheeks of my buttocks, fingers wrapped around my body as he raised me up to sit on the railings. My legs fell open involuntar

    KLAUS"Alright, what's your favorite color, band, and sexual position?" I scowled at Flinn on the other side of the table from me. We were sipping champagne—real champagne, not prosecco—and nibbling a tasty flatbread with herbs and artichokes and honey poured over it.I had ordered steak for an entrée, and he had ordered a chicken salad. This was not a coffee shop by any means. It was a restaurant, and an expensive damn one. There were candles in between us, French ballads softly playing in the background, antique chandeliers.I knew this night wasn't going to be spent in bed, so the entire experience was a waste of time. I didn't have to learn anything about Flinn. I could extricate myself from any situation through talking."Clear the table, Oasis, Pink." He folded his hands, highlighting his wild-buff biceps."Pink?" My champagne had gone the wrong way down my pipe, and I found myself coughing into my fist. "You enjoy that color?""Nothing's wrong with pink. It's the color of nippl
