“Not a chance.” She said and he laughed.

“It’ll be fun.”

“For you.” She stated.

“I promise I’ll behave myself.”

“When do you ever behave yourself?” She replied and he narrowed his eyes.

“Maddie…”

She sighed looking back at the harmless looking panties.

“I have rules.” She said and he laughed then.

“You don’t make the rules.” He stated.

“If you want me to wear those then I do.”

“That’s the point in them, that I have control, that I can literally turn them on at any moment and watch as you squirm.” He said.

She sighed wondering why she was even bothering to argue with him. He was going to get his way, just like always she thought.

“Put them on.” He ordered knowing from the look of her face that he had already won.

She glared at him, half yanking them from his hands and pulled them on. They weren’t even sexy, she thought, they literally looked like just a pair of black boring fabric knickers. He smirked looking her up and down and she glared at him some more before walking off to do her hair and put some makeup on. She had no idea who the hell was coming but Cole had never introduced her to anyone, never had anyone round while she’d been there and something in her wanted to make a good impression.

She heard the buzz just a split second before she felt it and then she gasped, her clit suddenly hot and wet with the feel of it right against her.

“Jesus.” She said half holding onto the wall and Cole laughed behind her.

“Just checking it’s working.” He said and she shook her head. “That was the lowest setting by the way.” He added grinning. He was going to be unbearable tonight, she knew it.

She pulled on the dress he had selected. It was low cut but at the same time not too revealing, long in length, dark red, with a split up the side but it felt like a good compromise between dressed up and casual and she hated to admit it but it was exactly the kind of thing she would have chosen herself. Damn, the man had good taste, she thought.

She turned to look at him, in his expensive shirt that was open just enough to show the hint of his chest beneath. Even now, even after all the times she’d seen him naked, she still felt her breath catch at how good looking he was, even if he was a complete arsehole with it.

The doorbell rang and she frowned slightly meeting his eyes. This was it, whoever they were, she was about to go head on into meeting them while wearing a pair of vibrating knickers and at high risk of climaxing halfway through the main meal if Cole had anything to do with it.

He took her hand and led her out of the room, pocketing the little remote as he did.

They walked down the stairs together and she felt herself suddenly nervous though she couldn’t figure out why.

Cole let go of her hand and opened the door and Maddie internally sighed a deep breath of relief when she saw Brandon there with a bunch of flowers standing next to a girl that was grinning back at her.

“Maddie.” Brandon said walking in and handing her the flowers.

“Thanks. They’re beautiful.” She said smelling them and feeling suddenly like this was all so domesticated. So normal. So utterly alien to her.

“This is Charlotte, my sister.” Cole said and Maddie felt her eyes widen a little then. She hadn’t even known he had a sister and yet here she was meeting her like Maddie was Cole’s girlfriend.

Charlotte was tall, like Cole, with a willowy body that her long silk dress only emphasised. Her hair was dark just like her brother’s and her eyes were almost identical too. She had the same high cheekbones but on her they looked feminine, softer.

Maddie glanced at Cole and he was watching her with a weird expression.

“Nice to meet you Charlotte.” Maddie said.

“It’s great to meet you.” She said grinning and stepping inside before kissing Maddie’s cheek. “Cole hasn’t had an actual girlfriend in years. At least not one he’d let us meet.”

“Oh er…” Maddie began because she wasn’t Cole’s girlfriend was she, it was just sex.

Cole threw Charlotte a look and Charlotte just giggled as if amused by it.

“Let me put these flowers in water.” Maddie said walking through to the kitchen and Charlotte followed her.

“So tell me, how long have you too been seeing each other, where did you meet? I hope he’s been treating you well, he can be an absolute shit when he wants to…” She said taking Maddie’s arm before she could stop her.

“You sure you’re not going to regret this?” Brandon said and Cole glanced at him.

“Which bit?” He asked.
