“Have I? I guess my mind has been elsewhere.”

Giving her sensuous smile, he laughed when she gave him an angry glare back.

“Can you get your mind out of the gutter long enough for a refill?”

“I think you might want to do that yourself.”

Sophie turned in the direction of the customer. When her eyes came back to him, he gave her an innocent look.

“I’ll get it,” she said, lips pursed.

“I thought you might. She’s drinking sweet tea.”

“Of course she is.”

It was everything he could do to keep a straight face as Sophie went to the drink station. He loved seeing the spark of jealousy in her each time she saw Chasity.

She had nothing to be jealous about. That man-eating bitch was one of the few single women he hadn’t hooked up with. There was something manipulative about Chasity he couldn’t put his finger on, and he didn’t want to.

Jody watched as Sophie took Chasity her drink. After a few short words that he couldn’t hear, Sophie pivoted and came back with a furious expression on her face.

“Your ex wants your opinion on what she should order.”

“I don’t have any exes. I had hookups.”

His clarifying the situation only made Sophie angrier.

“Just go give her your opinion on what to order. Suggest something she can choke on.”

Inwardly, he was still laughing when he approached Chasity’s table.

“What can I get for you?”

“I was beginning to wonder if you were ignoring me.”

“There aren’t many men who could ignore you.”

“Then why haven’t you taken me up on any of my invitations to come over for dinner?”

“Chasity, when I had hookups in the past, I was very careful about the women I was with. There’s one type of woman who wasn’t worth the price to fuck.”

“What type of woman is that?” Her flirtatious attitude turned chilly.

“A bitch like you. A frostbitten dick isn’t worth the price of fucking you.”

“I’ll take the ticket, and I’ll take my business to King’s.” He wrote out her ticket, and she snatched it out of his hand.

“Personally, I’d go home and cook if I were you. King’s wife won’t be as polite as Sophie.”

The way she looked at him gave him the chills.

Sophie was waiting for Chasity at the register.

Admiring that Sophie was polite to the woman, Jody wrapped his arms around her waist.

“I’m impressed.”

“By what?”
