“Sit,” I panted.
He pulled me up. “Legs, Irish.” He buried his face in my neck and his teeth grazed up slowly and he panted, “Don’t fucking break us apart.”
He sat down in a chair and brought me down hard on him. My feet touched the ground and his hands seized my waist in his firm, needy, grip.
“My turn,” I held my forehead to his.
“Show me the stars Irish,” he smiled.
I raised and lowered myself onto him slowly at first, allowing my body the chance to conform to the new position. His groans when I came down mixed with the sensation of topping him and being in control made me feel sexy. The way he watched me made me feel beautiful, the twinkling and wonder in his dark hooded eyes made me want to give him everything I knew I had held back for years now.
I held the back of the chair and rode him hard, “Fuck. God Irish .You -- fuck!”
He was ready to come. I felt him growing even more inside of me.
“Come, please come,” I pleaded.
I couldn’t keep up the pace; I was slipping into yet another earth shattering orgasm. He lifted me up and sat me on the counter and fucking me hard until he stilled, grunted, and I felt him jerk, spilling inside of me.
He reached up cupping my breasts and rubbing the pad of his thumb across my nipple as I rested my head on his shoulder.
“I’m gonna shower and head into Steel. There’s a list of things on the desk I need you to go over. I will swing back at seven to pick you up.”
“Xavier?”
“What Taelyn?” He kissed my head and rubbed his lips across it.
“Office rule, no work talk when you’re still inside me.”
“Right.” He kissed me again and pulled out. “Shower with me?”
“Give me a minute so I can feel my legs.”
He turned around and pulled my arms over his shoulders, “Hang on.”
“It’ll get all over you,” I laughed.
“We’re going to the shower not church.”

I spent the rest if the morning daydreaming about Xavier. Then my mother called. She asked a lot of questions about how I was doing with the break up with Daniel. I mentioned that he had texted me. She tried not to act concerned, but she’s a cop’s wife. She’s naturally suspicious.
I ended up telling her my new boss’s sister was away and I was staying in her apartment. She thought it was a good idea. She asked about my boss, and I told her I hadn’t met her yet. That Xavier wasn’t my boss.
She laughed, “Do you like him Taelyn? More than you thought before?”
It took a minute to answer her but I finally did, “Yes.”
“How much?”
“A lot.” She didn’t say anything. “Mom, he’s a lot like the boys but I’m smart. I know what I’m doing.”
“I won’t mention it to the boys--.”
“Or Dad, Mom. It’s not like he’ll be around that long. But right now he’s really good for me,” and very bad too but I didn’t mention that.
“Don’t get yourself hurt and don’t hurt him. Boys will be boys but they have hearts. If he’s a rebound let him know.”
“We understand each other. It’s nothing really.”
“Then why do you sound sad?”
“I don’t know. I don’t like the way things went down with Daniel. I can’t believe what a fool I was.”
“Why don’t you come home for the weekend? Hang out with me.”
“I suppose I could come home. Maybe Saturday--.”
“We have work to do Taelyn,” hearing Xavier behind me made me jump.
“When did you get here?” I asked holding my chest.
“Who are you talking to?”
He was pissed and I didn’t know why. I looked down and he had bags in his hands. My bags, from my apartment, and shopping bags.
“My Mom. What the hell are you doing?”
“Making sure you stay safe. That’s what I’m doing.” He set the bags down and snatched the phone out of my hand and hit speaker. “Mrs. Patrick how are you?”
“I’m well, Xavier is it?”
“It sure is. Has she always been this strong willed?”
My mom laughed and so did Xavier.
“If I was Taelyn’s mother I may have just gotten the wrong impression by how she reacted to my having packed up her apartment and moved her--.”
“I am not moving in here.” I snapped and my mom laughed again.
“I assume by your laughing the answer to my question is a firm yes? Please let me explain. I don’t like Daniel. I don’t trust Daniel and I want to make sure Taelyn is safe until I figure out how he got her new number. Mrs. Patrick did Taelyn tell you that Daniel smashed her phone?”
“Xavier!”
“Settle down Irish.” He scowled at me.
Mom laughed again. Xavier’s smug smirk appeared and he put the phone on speaker.
“Mom this isn’t funny. He’s a pain in the ass.”
“Well I would have to agree with him Taelyn. We never expected he would cheat on you so why don’t you just accept the offer for now.” I scowled at Xavier and he smirked. “I think your brothers should look into it too.”
“I have it all under control,” he tried not to sound annoyed, but his jaw flexed and I knew that meant one of two things and I was pretty sure he wasn’t thinking of doing things to me right now.
“We’re her family Xavier.”
“Where the hell were they when --.”
“Xavier don’t.” I pleaded with him.
“I can promise you both two things. I will not let anything happen to Taelyn and I will not hurt her.” He took the phone off speaker and handed it to me. “I bought you some new clothes for the club functions we will be attending.”
“I have clothes,” I half hissed at him.
“That show your ass Irish.” He hissed back and walked of the room.
I put the phone to my ear, “Sorry about that.”
“Do you two fight a lot?”
“He is very--.”
“Dominant?”
“Mom,” I said it like a whiny little child.
“I like him.”
“Don’t get too attached.”
“Now you sound like your brothers.”
“I do not.” Again the inner child came through.
“I love you -- Irish.” She laughed.
“Mom! I love you too. Goodnight.”
“It’s not even one yet.” She laughed loudly.
“Goodbye, I meant to say goodbye.” I hung up the phone and plopped down in the chair holding my head in my hands.
What just happened?
I turned around feeling his presence. He was standing against the doorway, arms crossed, and glaring at me.
“You have got to be kidding me.” I stood up and started for the door.
He stood legs spread, chest puffed up, and I knew I was in for something. I just wasn’t sure what it was yet.
Chapter 17
Black and Bolly - X
“Tell me what it is you expect of me Taelyn.” She opened her mouth to argue. I could see it in those fucking emerald eyes. “Forget I asked. You’ll be safe here. Well not here. An apartment a few buildings over just opened up. You’ll live there. It’s a gated community --.”
“I’m not moving,” she snapped.
“Yeah you are.”
She started walking towards me and motioned for me to move.
“Office rules Taelyn. You listen to me during the hours of--.”
“You’re an ass!”
“No, just trying to keep your little ass safe! Do you know how easy it is to walk into your building? I picked your fucking lock and it wasn’t all that difficult--.”
“Congratulations on your criminal activities; now move.” Her hands were on her hips and she was tryi
ng to be bad ass. Hot as hell. I glanced down and could see her nipples through her shirt.
“And you like it. It makes you hot.” I leaned forward and sniffed the air.
“What the hell are you doing?” She covered her chest by crossing her arms.
“Your nipples are hard, I was just waiting to see how long it was before I could smell your hot, wet, sweet--.”
“You better watch it,” she snapped.
“No you listen to me. I want you to be safe. Your little friend Danny Boy, he got your number from the bank. When you called and changed your phone number you failed to close the joint account. Care to explain that?”
“There were checks out.”
“Yeah, rent and car insurance. Why the fuck didn’t you close it and let that shit bounce? Let him pay his own fucking bills? He fucking--.”
“I said I would pay it. I had already mailed the checks. I’m not gonna just let that happen.”
“You’re going back to him aren’t you? Is that why you wanna go back there? So you can fuck old Danny the dud? Can he make you scream like I do? He eat your pussy and drive you crazy like--.”
“Shut up Xavier, just shut up--.”
“Oh that’s right, it’s not kosher.”
Her eyes immediately filled up and my chest tightened.
“You trying to pull a fast one on me? Fake cry so I --.”
“Leave. Me. Alone.” She was trembling.
“Answer my question. What the hell do you want from me?” I demanded.
“Nothing. Not one thing. Just let me leave.”
“How?” We stared at each other for a moment neither saying a word. “Do you see what you’re doing to me Taelyn? Do you! Fuck this. Fuck it all.” I turned to walk away and then looked back. “I keep my word. You go back to the city; you go with James until your big bad brothers can try to take care of you. You go home and you can try to forget about me, but I can promise you one thing, it won’t be fucking easy.”
“You’re a self-absorbed--.”
I turned around and walked back towards her. If she were a guy there would be no more words exchanged, but she wasn’t.
“Self-absorbed? Self- fucking absorbed! You’ve been like a sponge sucking me up since the day you walked into that office at Steel. You acted all high and mighty. Like you’re some fucking tough girl who has her shit together. You made me pant after you like a fucking dog. Then you fell apart. I took care of you sweetheart. Be honest with yourself, you fucking loved that as much as you liked my tongue in your cunt. So fuck you! Do whatever you want. Moving day is tomorrow. Take it or leave it. I’ll message you some bullshit tasks to keep you busy.”
I turned and walked the fuck out as fast as I could before she cried, ‘cause if she did, I was gonna be more fucked up than I was already.

I sat at the bar waiting for Memphis Black’s band to show up. I was so fucked up all I wanted to do was drink, listen to some music, and fuck whatever walked through the door that looked like she wasn’t looking to be saved. Fuck!
I had emailed Taelyn to start working on a website for Forever Four. I knew she was more than capable. That’s what she and Billy boy had worked on; I knew this because James was listening to them from the hallway. Yeah I was that fucked up about her. And that shit would change tonight.
The band was called Black and they drew a bigger crowd than Beckett’s band. He could sing and played the strings really well. His voice was excellent and he had great stage presence too. I did another shot and turned around in my stool to face the stage.
I stood up when I saw Nickie D walk in. He waved and I waved back.
He walked over and smiled, “How fucked up are you?”
“Pretty fucked up.”
“This the guy you are thinking about signing?”
“He’s good.” I took a drink and enjoyed the burn of the bourbon sliding down my throat.
“So you called to get my opinion?”
“Nah, I called because I’m fucked up and don’t want to sound like an idiot. This guy has to say yes.”
“Where’s the hot assistant?”
I looked away not wanting him to see the pissed off look I felt spreading across my face. “Night off, let’s go dance. Lots of pussy here.”
He patted my back as I stood and laughed. “You think you can hang?”
“You wanna see?” I reached down and started to unbutton my pants.
“What’s with you boys and your dicks?”
I looked over at the group of ladies who had been eye fucking me all night. I would have been all over that shit two weeks ago. Fuck that I was gonna be all over that tonight.
Nickie and I grabbed two each from the group and brought them to the dance floor. I had one on each knee rubbing on me as we danced. One chick was licking my neck and the other had her hand up my shirt rubbing my abs. Fuck, this is what I needed, a threesome tonight would take the edge off.
The band was taking their first break and I went to the bar and bought the two luckiest girls in the place a drink. “Give them whatever they want and get me a round for the band.” I told the bartender. “You ladies will have to excuse me for a moment. But do me a favor?”
I took one of the girl’s hands and slid it up the other girl’s skirt. “Get started without me. I’ll watch from over there. Give me a show.”
They both smiled and nodded. I don’t think they had said one fucking word in the fifteen minutes I had known them. And I didn’t give a fuck either. Talking was overrated.
I grabbed the tray of drinks and walked to the table to talk with Nickie and Memphis. I sat the tray on the table and stuck out my hand.
“Xavier Steel.”
“Yeah nice to meet you man. Taelyn here pointed you out. You were a bit busy,” he laughed as he shook my hand.
I looked over and she looked away quickly. “Thought you wouldn’t show.”
“I’ve been talking to Memphis for a little over two weeks now. Of course I was going to show.” She laughed as if nothing had happened earlier and she wouldn’t look at me.
“I told her as long as she came in every morning for coffee so I could look at her beautiful face I’d do just about anything she asked.” Memphis smiled at her and she blushed.
She fucking blushed.
“That’s good. You’re pretty good, but I can give you all sorts of tips to make you great.” I wasn’t talking about music. I was talking about what she needed. I’m pretty sure he knew it too.
“He likes you. He’s been watching you on You Tube for a couple weeks now,” Taelyn was trying to sell this shit hard.
“No --.” I started and Nickie interrupted.
I sat back watching Nickie and Taelyn talk to Memphis. Okay so I watched as she flirted with him. He wanted to fuck her. So I didn’t want him. I wasn’t even going to pretend that this son of a bitch was on my radar. Fuck him. Fuck her.
Memphis and his band stood up to go back on stage. He patted my back as he walked by. I leaned back in my chair and crossed my ankles and then my arms over my chest. I grabbed my glass and threw the drink back in one gulp. Again the burn was welcome, I needed it.
Nickie and Taelyn got up, “Come on man, dance with us.”
“Nope.”
I watched Nickie and Taelyn dance. She was wearing jeans and a shirt I had bought her. When the song ended they walked over.
“You have the bra and underwear on too?” I asked loud enough for Nickie to hear me, just so he fucking knew.
“No. I’m not wearing either,” she laughed and so did Nickie.
She sat down and then took a drink.
I closed my eyes and leaned back. I needed to figure out what I was gonna do now. I felt hands on my shoulders and I leaned my head back. “Took you long enough.”
Her lips touched mine and I knew right then they weren’t hers. I moved my head to the side brea
king the seal of the lips on mine.
“We were waiting.” The blond purred.
I sat up and looked at Taelyn. She looked away quickly and she smiled at Nickie.
“Dance?”
“Yeah.” Nickie stood up and took her hand. “You lead girl.”
He looked at me and shook his head disapprovingly.
“You can both leave.” I stood up and walked past them.
The song changed and I walked up and tapped Nickie’s shoulder.
“Not now man.” He shook his head.
“Not a fucking request man.”
Then she fucking floored me. She grabbed his face and kissed him. She kissed him hard. I felt like I had been punched in the stomach. When Nickie pulled his head back I grabbed him by the back of his shirt and pulled him back.
“Let him go.” Taelyn yelled at me and then she started the crying. “Can’t you just leave me alone? Go back to your girls!”
“I didn’t kiss her. I didn’t fucking kiss her! You -- fuck you!”
“Never again.” She wiped her face.
“That’s enough X,” Nickie stepped between us. “Go sit your drunken ass down and let her breathe.”
“No.” I growled at him.
“No?” He laughed.
“Fuck you too. I’m out.” I turned and walked out the door.
I was at the SUV when she yelled my name from behind me. I turned and looked at her.
“You can’t drive you—you--idiot!”
“I can.”
I got in the SUV and the passenger door flung open. She jumped in, leaned over and grabbed the keys out of my hand.
“You need to give me back my keys and get out.”
“I’m not letting you drive drunk Xavier.”
“I’m not your problem. You go back in and suck face with--.”
“You kissed that—that-- Bimbo.”
“No, she kissed me. I thought you had come to your senses, I thought it was you.”
“Oh yeah, I would come to my senses alright. I walked in and saw you dancing with two girls who were rubbing up and down your leg. Then I watched you push one of their hands--.”
“Thanks for the play by play sweetheart, I was there remember. And you fucking weren’t.”
“I quit.”
“You can’t quit. You still have to pay his fucking bills!” I laughed. She reached up to slap me but I caught her hand.
