Johnnie’s words got to Kendall more than they should have, considering the decision she’d reached about her marriage.
“Fuck him, Kendall.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Johnnie. Fuck him. He’s throwing a tantrum like a bitch with a bleeding cunt.”

“Let’s get to the matter at hand,” she ordered.
Bash’s eyes lit up. “Would you issue orders while you’re riding my cock?”
“If you mention you dick one more time, fuckhead, the meeting’s over.”
“We didn’t need it in the first place.”
“Of course we—”
