What’s so fucking funny in there, anyway?
“Please tell me you’ve nailed Juliet again?”
I roll my eyes. “No, I have not nailed Juliet again, because she is my neighbor. And everyone in the civilized world knows you do not give the bone to your neighbor.” I sip my beer, disgusted.
“I don’t see the problem; we all fucked our neighbors in college,” Bennet replies.
“It was a frat house,” I mutter dryly. “And we were completely out of control.”
“Well, if you’re not going to make a move . . .”
“Forget it,” I snap. “She’s off the table.”
“But if she isn’t on your table?”
“She isn’t on yours either.” I glare at him. “Last warning.”
“Fucking hell, calm down,” Blake scoffs. “What’s the issue with this girl, anyway?”
I screw up my face in disgust at this conversation. “Nothing.”
We sit for a few minutes in silence.
“I have a situation with her,” I eventually reply.
“Like what?”
“We’ve met before.”
“When?”
“We went on a date once.”
“And?”
“And she was the girl who fucked my brains out, and then I saw her with her fiancé two days later.”
Bennet’s eyes light up, “This is the girl?”
“You’re fucking joking me.”
“Oh . . . she just got a lot hotter.” Blake smiles darkly. “I like them slutty. I especially like giving them what their boring partners can’t.” He pumps his hips. “Show them what they’re missing.”
I roll my eyes. “Or dodging the bullet.”
“No . . . ,” Bennet scoffs. “That can’t be her. Juliet is all sweet and innocent.”
“Is she really, though?” I narrow my eyes. “That’s the million-dollar question.”
“Happy to find out for you.” Bennet winks. “Do some market research.”
“Fuck. Off,” I spit. “I’m going to knock you out in a minute.”
Bennet frowns. “I’m confused. What’s the problem? So she lives next door, so what?”
“The problem is,” I whisper angrily, “that I don’t want her but I can’t stop thinking about her, and Vanessa came over this weekend, and I couldn’t get the fucking job done. Ended up telling her I had a migraine.”
They both frown.
“And Juliet the pain in my neck lives next door to me, and I have to look at her sexy little ass run up and down my street and listen to her dumb dog bark all fucking day, and all I want to do is bend her over my car and give her what for.”
I drag my hand down my face in disgust.
“Hmm.” We fall silent.
“And now it gets worse. Her dumb friend just came over and warned me to look after her, seeing we are dating now.”
“Huh?”
“She lied to him and told him I was her boyfriend so she didn’t have to go out with him. This woman is a manipulative, venomous, cheating witch.”
“Who you should totally fuck.”
“Exactly.” I sip my beer.
“So what are you going to do?” Bennet asks.
I think for a moment. “The only thing I can do.”
“Which is?”
I sip my beer. “I’m going to teach her a lesson.”
“With your dick?”
“Not with my dick,” I scoff in disgust.
A roar of laughter comes from Juliet’s house, and I look in as a new plan rolls around in my head. “Maybe Juliet’s boyfriend should crash her party.”
“You wouldn’t.”
I smirk. “Watch me.”
Juliet
It’s just getting dark, and my visitors are making themselves at home. Some are in the backyard playing with Barry. Some are on the front veranda. Hopefully all are leaving soon.
I’m in the kitchen making tea when the front door opens. “Where’s my girl?” a deep voice calls out.
Huh?
I peek around the corner and see Henley standing in my living area. The room falls instantly silent as everyone stares at the god.
What’s happening right now?
“Just had a good old chat with Warren.” He winks sarcastically.
Oh no.
He walks into the kitchen and takes me roughly into his arms in front of everyone. “Thought I’d better come over and see how my girlfriend’s doing.”
Aah!
He bends me over backward in a dramatic fashion and looks down at me.
“It’s so good to see you, sweetheart,” he sneers.
My eyes widen at his sarcastic tone, the hatred for me dripping from his every pore.
Dear god.
Chapter 6
“Henley,” I gasp. “What are you—”
He cuts me off with a kiss. His lips linger over mine, and then he nips me with his teeth before pulling me back up to my feet.
Leonie’s and Chloe’s mouths drop open. They’re as shocked as I am. They know we aren’t really dating.
Oh hell. The blood drains from my face. He’s here to ruin my life. There can be no other reason.
This is bad.
I fake a smile. “Honey, what are you doing here?”
“Couldn’t keep away.” He grabs a handful of my behind aggressively, and I jump.
My life is over.
“Where have you been keeping him?” Gisele smiles as she looks him up and down.
“Tied to the bed.” Henley winks, and the undertone of animosity is crystal clear. “She’s a real nympho, this one.”
Kill me. Kill me right now.
