“Dude. Kinky.” I can hear the mirth in Ryan’s voice, and I hate it. He doesn’t need to know that Oscar tied me up. He definitely doesn’t need to know how much Oscar liked it.

And there’s no doubt in my mind that he liked it.

I saw the way he looked at me as I slipped out of my clothes. I didn’t miss the way his pants tented. He liked what he saw even if he didn’t act on it.

And is that what I really want?

A part of me feels embarrassed. Knowing that the others know about me being tied up feels humiliating, but there’s also a part of me that likes this embarrassment.

How sick and twisted is that?

“Fuck off,” Oscar says.

“You brought it up,” Ryan says.

“I don’t ask you about Alex. Don’t ask me about Dolly.”

“Is there…what?” Ryan says. “Is there a thing between you and Dolly?”

“No.”

“Do you want there to be?”

“Not the time,” Phoenix says. “Where is Craig now?”

“No clue,” Oscar says.

“Do you have her phone? Can you call him?” Ryan asks.

“I destroyed her phone,” Oscar says.

“Good move.”

“It’s too easy to track people,” Oscar says. “We all know that.”

Yeah, especially me. I think of all the times Craig has slipped tracking stuff on my phone without me knowing it. I don’t want him to know where I am, and I certainly don’t want him to have the opportunity to trick me

I’ve spent so much of my life being tricked. I don’t need anyone to do that to me again.

“How are you going to find him?” Phoenix asks.

“I don’t know,” Oscar says. “I’m sure she’s asleep by now. I’ll wake her up in a little while and talk to her.”

“Are you going to talk with your words or with your dick?” Phoenix asks. There’s a hint of laughter in his tone.

“Dude. Fuck. Off.”

“What? I’m just asking.”

“It’s a genuine question,” Ryan agrees.

“I’m hanging up,” Oscar says. “Just keep looking. Let me know if you find anything else.”

“Want us to come over?” Ryan asks.

“No. Stay away.”

“He wants to be alone with his new toy,” Phoenix says, but then Oscar ends the call. I hear him sigh, and I press myself flat against the wall.
