CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE

Ava

Iwatch Griffin strutto his shower and want to shoot him for having an ass that gorgeous.

As if I’m not still standing here, naked and dripping with his cum, he turns on the shower. The steam feels so nice and warm. I want to be in there with him, but that will lead to more sex.

I catch my reflection in the mirror, my lower lip is bruised from biting it so hard while Griffin probed my ass with the head of his cock.

Good Lord.

Good Griffin!

Putting the robe back on, I slip into the bedroom and grab Griffin’s phone. Smiling, I enter the code I carefully watched him enter the past few weeks when he thought I didn’t notice. Scrolling through his texts, I see a message from Shane reminding him about the game and where it is. And that he’s got a surprise.

What in the hell is Shane’s surprise? Better not be cheerleaders.I’llbe the cheerleader.

I dive into my closet and grab a pair of short shorts, a white T-shirt (sans bra), and cute yellow sneakers I bought. Glancing out the window, I smile at the gray clouds.

Looks like rain.

Perfect.

With what’s left of my hair, I pin it back in pink clips to keep it out of my face. I skip down the steps and find my guard in the wardroom.

Bourne stands up, his jaw jumping at how I’m dressed. “Ma’am?”

“I’d like to leave now for the park. The guys are playing soccer.” I glance at Griffin’s guards, who sharply nod to Bourne, confirming. “I’m going, too, but I need to stop and grab some drinks and snacks. I’d like to get there early.”

“Why aren’t you going with Mr. Quinlan?” Zeke asks, rising to his seven-foot height.

I hide my breasts behind folded arms and think of an answer. I would never say:Because he’d kill me if I tried to leave the house like this.

“He’s running late,” comes to me. “He wants me to go ahead and secure the field.”

Per Shane’s message, he reserved it, but it has a strict fifteen-minute no-show policy.

Bourne and Griffin’s two guards look at each other as if I’mnotasking him to take me to the park during the day, but the docks late at night.

Then Bourne snatches car keys from the panel next to the door. “Yes, Ma’am.”

I hop with glee while Zeke makes me wait until the dark blue Lexus TX Griffin bought for me pulls up. I bought a Porsche for myself, but I don’t drive, so I’m stuck with the chauffeured SUV.

Next, Bourne and I are speeding away from the house. I wish I had the app to the house security cameras to see Griffin’s face when he gets out of the shower and realizes I’m gone.
