and let out a chuckle. “I’m sure you would have. But to let you know, if we hadn’t been best friends since the third grade, I would have quit.”
    “Touché, my friend.”
    The perky tits waitress set my drink down in front of me and proceeded to take our dinner order.
    “So tell me about my next victim.” I smiled.
    “Her name is Lorelei Flynn and she has exceptional organizational skills. She even straightened the paperweight on my desk.”
    “Oh. I think I like her already. Is she hot?”
    He cocked his head at me with a glare. I smiled. “She’s a very attractive woman.”
    “How old is she?”
    “She’s twenty-five. Why?”
    I shrugged. “No reason. Twenty-five is good. Is there a husband or a boyfriend?”
    “I know she’s not married. As for a boyfriend, I have no clue. Why are you asking?”
    “Because I don’t need some asshole coming after me when I send her home in uncontrollable tears like two PAs ago.”
    “Then maybe you shouldn’t be such a dick.” He smirked.
    “Can’t be helped. It’s in my nature.” I held up my glass.
    “Actually, it’s not in your nature. I knew you when you weren’t such a dick.”

    After having dinner with Garrett, I arrived at my penthouse and poured myself a drink. I was feeling stressed from the day and needed to unwind. I pulled out my phone and sent a text message to Adriane.
    “Can you come over?”
    “Sure. I’ll be there in fifteen minutes.”
    “Looking forward to it.”
    “Me too.”
    Adriane was my go-to girl when I needed last-minute sex. She was the type that didn’t care and she was always looking for a good time. I went upstairs to my bedroom and opened the drawer in my nightstand making sure I had condoms. I was down to two and I needed to get some more ASAP. I heard the elevator ding, so I walked downstairs as she stepped off.
    “Good evening. Thank you for coming on such short notice.” I smiled.
    “My pleasure, Jack. But we have to talk about something after.”
    Uh-oh. I didn’t like the sound of that and, instantly, she killed my mood.
    “You just killed my mood, Adriane. What’s up?”
    She walked over to me and began unbuttoning my shirt, running her finger down my chest.
    “Sex first. Talk later.” Her lips brushed against mine.
    I needed to know what she wanted to talk about because I was afraid she wanted something from me. Fear swept through my body, making an erection impossible.
    “Sorry, Adriane. You killed it. You need to tell me what you want to talk about.”
    She sighed. “Fine. I’ve started seeing someone and I think I really like him. So after tonight, we can’t do this anymore as long as I’m with him.”
    I shook my head. “Wait. You’ve met someone and you still came here? Why?”
    “I don’t know. One last good fuck with you for old time’s sake.”
    I had one rule that I always stood by. Never fuck another man’s girl. And if I fucked her tonight, I’d be breaking my rule and I wasn’t about to do that no matter how much I wanted sex.
    “Sorry, Adriane. If you’re with someone, we can’t. I thought you weren’t into relationships,” I spoke and walked over to the bar and poured us each a scotch.
    As I handed her the glass, she spoke, “I’m not. I mean, I wasn’t, but Riley came along and sort of swept me off my feet, I guess you could say. He’s a good man and I really like him.”
    “If you really liked him, you wouldn’t be here wanting to fuck me now, would you?”
    “I’m confused, Jack. Maybe I was using you as the opportunity to see what my true feelings for Riley really are.”
    “Thanks a lot, Adriane.” I smirked.
    She threw back her drink and handed me the glass. “Have a good night, Jack. I’ll see you around some time.”
    “You too. I hope things work out with the two of you.”
    “Thanks.” She threw me a smile as she stepped on the elevator.
    I sighed and threw back my scotch. “Looks like it’s just me, you, and porn tonight,” I spoke as I
