Heart-On: Turf Wars #2, Bella Jewel [ebook reader screen txt] 📗

don’t sit around and get treated like that only to drop to my knees and give you what you want.”

His scowl is back.

“You’re a fuckin’ pain in the ass anyway. You’re right, it wouldn’t get hard for you.”

“Oh, it would get hard. It would get so hard it would explode before I even touched it. I know how beautiful I am, sir, and I can tell you ... you’d be lucky to have even a piece of this.”

He grunts. “Not interested.”

“You were just proposing I suck your dick.”

“I changed my mind. I need somethin’ to make my dick twitch, and every time you open your mouth, it shrinks a little.”

Oh.

He’s making me angry right now.

“Calm yourself, I could touch that thing right now and it’d stand up for me.”

“Yeah, nah, it fuckin’ wouldn’t.”

My brows go up and I cross my arms. “Oh, it would.”

“It. Wouldn’t.”

Is this some sort of challenge?

Because I will win it.

“Is that a bet?”

He snorts, smirking. It’s the first time I’ve seen him smirk. “You want to make a bet with me that you can give me a boner?”

“Yep.” I say firmly.

“And what’s in it for me?”

“I give you a boner, then you start being nice to me. I don’t give you a boner, then I’ll relieve that pressure for you.”

He narrows his eyes. “Fine, go ahead and try, it’ll give me some sort of fuckin’ entertainment around here. But, there are rules.”

I cross my arms. “Name them.”

“You can’t touch my dick. Any man can get a boner if their dick is being stroked. You think you’ve got it in you to be able to bring it up without laying a single hand on it?”

“Honey,” I grunt, flicking my hair back. “Have you seen this ass?”

He crosses his arms. “Yeah, it ain’t for me.”

“We’ll see about that.”

“You’ve got two weeks, then I’m gettin’ this house full of fuckin’ women to ride my cock until the walls are dripping in cum. Though we won’t get that far, because after a week you’ll see it’s not working and have to give in and give me what I want.”

“You disgust me, and it’ll never happen.”

He grins, and it makes my heart do funny things because he’s spectacular when he grins.

“We’ll see.”

Oh.

We’ll see alright.

“Oh my god, what?” Eve laughs, throwing her head back. “Only you could get yourself into a position like that.”

“To be fair,” I say, crossing my arms and scowling at her, “you had a turf war with your man, so ...”

She giggles. “I know, but your bet is that you can give him a boner. A boner!”

I grin, because I can’t help it. “Well, he was frustrating me and it just kind of happened. The problem is, the man is determined, and I think it’s very possible he can keep it down.”

“Not if he’s as horny as he’s acting, he won’t. You just have to get creative.”

“How? Outside of walking around naked which I am not going to do, I’m already flat out of ideas.”

“Honey,” Eve says, “you’re Ramona, you aren’t out of ideas.”

I chuckle. “Okay, well, I have a few.”

“Tell me.”

“Dirty dance, cleaning the kitchen in sexy outfits, breathing on his dick when I’m cleaning it, bending over in front of him.”

Eve’s brows go up. “Evil genius.”

“Well, you know, I may have thought about it a little bit.”

“I’ll talk to Riggs, I bet he can tell me the kind of thing Adan likes. There must be a type, you can dress up and saunter around in a sexy little outfit that’ll drive him wild.”

I grin. “I think this might actually be fun, god knows I need it. He’s been horrible to live with.”

“I think he might need it, too. And who wouldn’t? He’s smart, really. A gorgeous woman walking around in his house, trying to turn him on. It’s not exactly a hard way to live.”

She’s right.

Cheeky asshole.

“You up for a shopping trip? I’m going to need some new panties if I’m going to make this work. The granny knickers I wear to bed simply won’t cut it.”

“Better yet, don’t wear any.” Eve wiggles her brows. “A long tee of his, no undies, accidentally bend over in front of him.”

“If he sees what I’ve got going in here at the moment the man will have a heart attack,” I say, giving her an ‘oops’ grin.

“Honey, you haven’t waxed!” Eve cries, pressing her hands to her face.

“Guess I better book that salon appointment before the panties, huh?”

Eve nods, and then we both laugh.

“I better go and do it while Adan is busy at the club, god knows if I go over there he’ll just growl at me.”

Eve shakes her head. “He’s such a grump. Buy him something to make him happy while you’re at it.”

“Pocket pussy?” I suggest.

She laughs. “That’ll get him raring.”

I grin and hug her. “We’re doing drinks soon, I need it after spending days in the house with sir-anger-lot.”

“This weekend.”

“Perfect.”

I take my coffee and leave her café. I text Adan and tell him I’m going into town and I’ll pick him up later. He doesn’t reply, but considering he can’t use his hands, well, it’s not surprising.

I laugh to myself and then make my way into town.

He’s going to get the shock of his life when I roll in.

Oh.

Yes, he is.

“MY GOD,” I MURMUR TO myself. “When did I let this get so ...untamed?”

I slide the razor over my legs, which are propped up on the side of the bath as I soak in the steaming hot water. I got myself some nice new razors, bath salts, shampoos, and conditioners. Working full time is paying well. Especially when I’m not paying rent. I haven’t told Eve yet, but I’ve moved out of the apartment I’m staying in and currently, I have nowhere to live. I’m staying here, sure, but after this ...

I won’t think about it.

Or everything else that comes with it.

The bathroom door swings open and, without thought, I launch forward, slip, and find myself sliding down into the water
