I shrug. “Two things can be true.”

Jax scrutinizes me.

“What?” I look between them.

“Those bite marks on your shoulder last week were from him?” Jace asks.

I nod.

He swipes Felix’s phone off his desk and tosses it to me. “It’s always the quiet ones who are the most fun.”

I catch it and slip it into my back pocket. “True story.”

Jace grins and swings back and forth in his chair. “And now we know why you haven’t been as much of an asshole lately. Shoulda guessed you were getting some D.”

I shoot him a look.

He grins wider and flicks his gaze to his brother. “Am I wrong?”

I glance at Jax, who’s also grinning at me.

“He’s not wrong,” Jax informs me.

“Fuck off,” I grumble.

Jace puts up his hands in mock surrender. “No need to get all defensive. We’re merely pointing out facts.”

“Yeah, well, your facts can go fuck themselves.”

Jax shoots me a cheesy grin. “Methinks the lady doth protest too much.”

I flip him off.

“I’m also guessing that’s what you got up to after we left?” Jace is grinning like the Cheshire Cat. “The tension in the room was enough to give me a contact boner.”

“He needs to learn not to hide shit from me.” I lean back against the cushions. “I broke up with Natalie.”

“Bro.” Jax backhands me in the chest. “You didn’t think to lead with that?”

“Thank fuck,” Jace says. “When did this gloriousness happen?”

“Just before I came up here.”

“How’d you go from banging your stepbro to dumping Gold Digger Barbie in the forty-five minutes it took you to get your ass up here?” Jace asks.

“It was kind of a two birds, one stone situation.”

“Huh?” Jax asks.

“She walked in on us just as I was about to nut in Felix’s mouth.”

Jace throws back his head and cackles. “Fuckin’ A.”

Jax laughs, albeit a little less theatrically. “What I wouldn’t give to be a fly on the wall for that scene.”

“Her head is probably exploding knowing you picked Felix over her.” Jace shakes his head, still chuckling.

“She doesn’t know it’s him. My back was to her, so she couldn’t see anything other than his legs. All she knows is that I was with a guy.”
