“How are things with you two?” I hear someone else ask.

“Not great. He has been distant recently, but I plan on changing that. I think he is just stressed. I know our relationship isn’t as good as it was once upon a time, but the sex was so damn incredible, and I miss it.” Her words come out in a groan.

The pit in my stomach tightens, and I clench my fists. The thought of her and Ezra having sex even is enough to make me jealous.

“Why do you think he is distant? Do you think he is seeing someone else?”

I freeze at her friend’s suggestion. I wonder if she does know or has suspicions.

“I have no idea, but even if he is, it doesn’t matter. Whoever the little skank is he will get bored with her soon enough. He will always choose me, no matter what. He knows as well I do we are supposed to get married. I am the perfect woman for a man like him. He needs someone like me to keep his parents happy, to keep appearances up in our social circles.”

I hate how certain she sounds of herself. I want to do nothing more than to storm over there and tell her she is fucking delusional because Ezra doesn’t want her, he wants me, and she isn’t going to get in the way of that. I can’t, though, because I promised Ezra I would be patient and let him do it when the time is right. How can she possibly believe they are going to get married? She doesn’t even love him, and he doesn’t love her either. Who wants a loveless marriage? Who knows? Maybe that is how it works in their world, and they marry for breeding, appearance, and convenience. If so, it is a sad way to live.

“Yes, the slut doesn’t have anything on you, Bella. Ezra needs to realize how lucky he is and how good you are by his side.”

God, are all these bitches delusional?

“Exactly. Plus, if there is someone else, I will find out who they are, ruin them, and expose them for the home wreckers they are. They won’t last long in our society,” she says smugly.

Seriously, who the hell does she think she is? She can come for me all she wants. I don’t give a damn. It is okay to say that, but I honestly have no idea how everything will be for Ezra if the truth comes out.

I think it’s time for me to walk away because the woman is infuriating me, and if she continues, I may snap, and we don’t need that, not today.

I pick out a dark blue baby doll and a red one. All I need are some stockings and I am out of here. I don’t want to let her ruin my mood or my night with Ezra, but she has pissed me off. I am also a little worried about her plan of seduction. What if it works? No! Why am I thinking these things again? Especially after what happened the last time? He won’t do it to me. I trust him.

I rush to the cashier, the total coming to a hundred and fifty dollars, which isn’t too bad. I might as well treat myself to a coffee and some lunch. I can pay him back the money once I get my first pay check. I could be doing with something stronger after seeing Bella, but it is too early to drink. I am wondering what will happen next since things usually come in threes. The first was Ezra’s dad asking him if he was having an affair. And now me seeing Bella.

I arrive back at my room a few hours later after going to the spa in the hotel. I needed a massage because my entire body was tense after what happened earlier. I’m feeling a lot better and refreshed, definitely ready for my sexy night with Ezra. I toss myself down on the bed, considered taking a nap, but then a better idea pops into my head.

Ezra is busy all day with meetings, so maybe I should show him what he has to look forward to when he arrives here. I smirk because I love being naughty for him. I grab the bag from the floor, deciding what I should wear. I take the underwear set, but I will cover myself where the panties are crotchless. I can’t give him everything at once, and I am sure the last thing he needs to see at work is down there. The poor man will need to beat one out in the bathroom.

I strip out of my clothes and put on the set. I let my hair down from my tie and put some red lipstick on. I take the first photo standing in front of the full mirror and another one of me kneeling on the bed. I attach them to a text.

Hey, babe, I hope you are having a good day. I can’t wait to see you later xx

Maybe I shouldn’t be doing this while he is at work, but I’m positive he will appreciate it. I put my cell on the bed, waiting for his reply. It only takes a couple of minutes.

Fucking hell, angel, are you trying to kill me? I am sitting in a meeting and now have a hard-on. Damn, you look sexy! I can’t wait to get my hands on you and spank that pretty ass for your naughty behaviour xx

My bad! I chuckle to myself, imagining him sitting in a room with a group of people, shifting in his chair and trying to readjust his excitement without being obvious.

I would say I am sorry, but I would be lying. Mmm, you like that. You should see what else I bought for you, baby. Oh, it is a shame I haven’t started work there yet because you could have sneaked away to your office, and I could have sorted your growing issue with my mouth under your desk. Is that a promise on the spanking? xx

I know I am probably making his issue worse, but I can’t help myself.

Fuck! Now all I can picture is you on your knees for me sucking my cock. You are in for it when I get there, angel, and that is a promise. I will do more than spank xx

I whimper, squeezing my thighs together, becoming aroused.

Don’t worry, handsome. The picture in your head will be a reality when you are here with me. Please, tell more xx

Nothing is sexier than watching you on your knees for me, sucking my cock. Oh, I can’t tell you that, I don’t want to ruin the surprise xx

You are no fun! You should get back to your meeting. Let your thoughts run wild, babe, and I will be waiting and ready for you. Text me when you are on your way xx

Mmm, my little cock tease. I should, but I don’t know if I will be able to concentrate. See you later, bright eyes xx
