Alluring Ties (9 page)

I start to get nervous when he doesn’t speak. I’m still holding Lexi’s hand. She squeezes. We’re both just waiting for a reaction. Finally, he smiles and claps. “Congratulations, Mr. Jenson and Miss Sloane. We’ll be approving the business loan for Java and Sweeties. This is an amazing plan and we firmly believe this is a great investment.”

Lexi squeals and I smile at her. Mr. Richards smiles at both of us and then turns the top paper towards us. “If you’ll both sign here, I’ll start the process of signing your life away.”

Letting go of Lexi’s hand, I reach for Mr. Richards’s hand and give it a firm shake. “Thank you, sir. Thank you. We’re very excited. We won’t fail.”

Lexi scoots up and shakes his hand too. “Thank you, Mr. Richards. Erik and I are both hard workers and we are determined to make this a successful endeavor.”

Laughing at her eagerness, he drums his fingers on his desk. “Of that I have no doubt, Miss Sloane. Congratulations again.”

After two hours and a mountain of paperwork, Lexi and I leave the bank. Grabbing her, I spin her around on the sidewalk. Leaning down, I kiss her nose. “We did it, Miss Sloane! We’re going into business together. Just like we always planned.”

She smiles back and a trace of the sadness she always hides crosses her face, before it’s quickly masked. “Yes, we did, Mr. Jenson. This is one dream that will come true. We’re going to rock this! I’m giving this 1000%, Erik. I’m so glad we’re doing this together.”

We embrace again and decide to call Bradi and Micah to come meet us for a celebratory drink. They agree and we head to Bruno’s. It’s five o’clock somewhere.

Three hours later, we’re all happily intoxicated and the place is starting to get more traffic. There are only a few tables left open and Bradi decides it’s time to kick start the party. She startles us by jumping up and almost knocking her chair over. She grabs Micah and plants a steamy kiss on him while Lex and I roll our eyes. Lexi mumbles, “Get a room,” and Micah winks at her. Then, Bradi grabs Lexi and they race over to the DJ booth where the guy is organizing his music. After some animated gesturing, he shrugs and turns to flip a switch. Music pounds through the speakers and the girls race back with huge smiles and grab us, pulling us onto the dance floor.

Some Jay Sean comes on and the girls’ hips start moving. Within minutes, the floor is full and everyone is having fun. Bradi is all over Micah, as usual… not that he complains. That girl is so wild, but they are so in love. I get a little jealous sometimes. Lexi wraps her arms around me and we groove.

We dance for a few songs until we’re all hot and thirsty. Then we leave the now crowded floor and head back to the table. Micah leaves to get us some drinks. The girls are looking around and I’m just sitting, trying to catch my breath. Bradi smirks and pulls Lexi down, then starts talking animatedly and pointing. Lex looks, then smiles and leans over, motioning me to meet her over the table top.
What the hell?

I lean down and give her my ear. She shouts to be heard above the music. “Hottie at three o’clock is seriously checking you out. I think it’s that cop.” My brows rise and she wiggles her brows at me and sticks her tongue out. Laughing, I chance a look over my shoulder. Yeah, he’s looking. He sees me catch him and he shrugs and smiles. I smile back.

He’s a regular here too and we’ve chatted a time or two, but nothing has ever come of it. He’s tall and thick with muscle and a friend of mine said he was a cop here in town when I subtly asked. His thick, dark blond hair is short, but a little wavy and it almost looks like he gets it highlighted. He’s very nice on the eyes and the couple of times we’ve spoken he was pleasant.

Lexi calls my name and I turn to look at her. Her eyes are lit up with alcohol and she’s smirking at me. I know that look. “So, are you going to go talk to him, E?”

Laughing, I ask her, “Why do you care? Why don’t you find a hottie of your own to pass some time with tonight? I will if you will.”

Her face clouds for a second and then she smiles at me. “I’m good. I don’t need or want that. I’m going to have another drink, while
you
go talk to Officer Hottie over there, and then I’m going home to curl up with my Nora Roberts book.”

“Why are you staying while I talk to him?” I joke with her.

Reaching over and tapping my nose with her finger, she chuckles. “Because, I know you. You won’t do it. You’ll come home with me and we’ll curl up like boring old people on the couch.” She shakes her head no. “Nope, that ain’t happening. That man has been ogling you for a month now and I see you checking him out. I’m going home and you are going to at least talk to,” she wiggles her brows “or better yet, bring that fine specimen home to have a good time. You deserve it, Erik.”

Bradi has been listening to the conversation and puts in her two cents. “Or better yet, you get him to come home with you, Erik, and Lex, you join in on that. How long has it been since you’ve had sex?”

I choke and Lexi looks at Bradi like she’s insane, which we already know she is. Surprisingly, she can still shock us after all this time.

Lexi catches her breath. “What, Bradi?! Oh my God, like Erik would have sex with me! You need to put whatever the hell you’re drinking down.” Bradi laughs. Lexi continues. “And you know exactly how long it’s been since I’ve had sex.” She blushes.

Bradi checks her nails and rolls her eyes at Lexi. “Smut books and B.O.B. don’t count. I mean a flesh and blood penis.”

I start coughing from holding in my laughter. Micah walks up and catches the last part. He shakes his head and kisses the top of Bradi’s wet curls. “Baby, really? Stop bugging Lexi about her sex life. Or, lack of one.” He smirks as she sputters trying to hold in her laughter.

“Why the hell are y’all so worried about my sex life? I’m good. Really. And Erik, either you go talk to Officer Hottie, or I’m sending Bradi over there. You know you don’t want that!” She chuckles at her idea.

Bradi’s eyes light up and Micah looks at me with mirth in his eyes. “You definitely don’t want that! Go talk to him. I’ll get Lex home.” Bradi pouts at him and he swats her backside. She leans into his chest and his arms come around her reflexively.

Lexi raises her brows at me once more. “What’s it going to be, E?” Then she smiles as she looks over my shoulder. Her teeth show and she says, “Nevermind then.”

I turn as I see all three of my best friends smiling at me with shit-eating grins. My eyes meet brown eyes and I see slight stubble on a chiseled chin. “Hey, y’all,” he says.

Bradi laughs out loud and Lexi kicks her under the table, but it doesn’t stop her from talking. “Hey, Officer Hottie. How are you on this fine evening? You know our gorgeous friend Erik, right?”

Micah turns to try to cover his laughing and Lexi buries her face in her hands as she laughs. Bradi just smiles the devilish Bradi smile. I turn and shrug. He says, “I do, yes. Hey, Erik.”

Chuckling under my breath and tapping my thighs, I give Bradi the stink eye before greeting him. “Hey, Rhyc.”

Gesturing to Micah’s empty chair, I say, “Want to sit down?”

He nods and turns it backwards, before straddling it. My eyes can’t help but stray to the crotch of his tight jeans.

He catches me looking and I see a slight flush on his cheeks. Clearing his throat, he asks why we’re here so early.

Lexi tells him about the meeting at the bank and what we’re doing. He nods appreciatively and whistles. “Congrats, y’all. That should be really good here. You’ll do well with that.”

Everyone talks for a bit more and then Lexi hops up. “Well, I’m getting tired and I need to get clean. The smoke and stench in here are getting to me.” She leans over and hugs me. She whispers in my ear, “Have some fun, E. You deserve it!”

Micah helps Bradi up and everyone says goodnight before they head out, leaving Rhyc and me at the table. As we watch them leave, he turns towards me. “So, it’s just you and me now.”

I laugh and nod. “Yeah, it appears that way. Sorry, my friends aren’t very subtle.”

He laughs too and leans over the table so he can be heard over the music. “It’s ok. I like your friends.” Then, I can see on his face when he makes the choice. “Hey, do you want to get out of here? I can’t hear and I’ve had enough to drink. I work tomorrow afternoon.”

I stop and take him in.

Do I want to get out of here with him? Yes, yes I do. He’s hot and he seems nice. Let’s just see what happens here. I am not looking for anything permanent, but he’s hot. Yeah, I want to get out of here.

Nodding, I get up and throw some bills on the table. He stands and follows me outside.

Lexi left with Micah and Bradi, so I have my car. We get to the parking lot and stop. We just stand there as the music pulses through the closed door and interrupts the night. Finally, he chuckles. “Uh, where do you want to go? We can go someplace and talk.”

I shrug and smile. “Wherever you want. I live with Lexi, but she’s probably curled up in her room with a book. We can go wherever you’d like though. I’d like to talk.” As I say it, my gaze takes in his mouth. He’s chewing on his bottom lip like he’s nervous. I try to reassure him. “We don’t have to go to one of our places. We can go sit somewhere if you’re more comfortable.”

He looks at me and smiles. My cock jerks in response. “I live alone. I have an apartment up the street. We can go there if you want. Are you ok to drive?”

My brows rise as I catch him looking at my crotch where my dick is clearly visible and ready to come out to play. I laugh. “I’m good. I was a little tipsy earlier, but I think I danced it out. I’ll follow you if that’s ok?”

He nods and walks past me, brushing against me as he does so.

Well ok then. I think I might get lucky tonight after all. Rhyc is so hot and a cop. Let’s see where this goes.

Following him to his building, he directs me to park across from his unit. I do and trail behind him up the stairs to his apartment. His place is nice. He tosses his keys onto a small table by the door and then turns around and puts his hands in his pockets. It pulls his jeans down and I catch a peek of ridged muscle and a trail of dark hair disappearing into his waistband. My mouth starts to water.

He sees me looking and quirks his brow at me. “Something catch your eye, Erik?”

Holy shit. I guess we’re not playing games here. Hell yes, something has caught my eye and I want to see where that happy trail leads.

Taking a step towards him, I stop about a foot away and put my hand on his abs. They jump in response. “
Something
certainly has, Rhyc, yes.”

He reaches out and grips my biceps with both hands while my hand is still pressed against his abs. We just look at each other. Then, he growls and pulls me towards him before pressing his mouth to mine. He kneads my arms as he explores my mouth with his tongue. Still kissing, he slips his hands under the hem of my shirt, and raises it up. He breaks the kiss only to pull it over my head. I raise my arms to give him better access. Gripping his shirt with my hands, I return the favor.

Once we’re both shirtless, we take a step back and take each other in. We’re both hard and firm, but his shoulders are decorated with tattoos, while his chest has curls leading down to a trail of dark hair. His skin is darker than mine. He is a beautiful specimen.

He pulls me back to him and I take him by surprise when I turn him and walk him the few steps to the wall. Once his back hits it, I lick his mouth and suck on his tongue before trailing my lips over his stubbled chin and neck. His head is thrown back against the wall and he’s panting as he holds on to my arms. I trail my mouth down his chest, stopping at both nipples and nipping until they form hard little beads. My hands have found the fastening of his jeans and I unsnap them. Trailing my mouth down, I follow the happy trail. At his “V”, I lick and nip the entire thing and push his jeans down. His cock springs free and is standing proudly inches from my mouth.

He’s gasping and I can see the restraint he’s trying to hold on to. He looks down at me and as his eyes meet mine, I take his straining sheath into my mouth. I deep throat it once and as it hits the back of my throat, I hum. He moans and grabs my head. Our gazes are still locked.

I unsnap my own pants and release my rock hard dick and take it into my hand. As I continue to lick and suck his magnificent cock, I’m stroking my own.

After several minutes, I can feel his back arch, and his dick goes completely rigid. He gasps out, “I’m going to cum. Where do you want me to cum?”

In answer, I suck harder and push him deep into my throat. He shouts out with his release and I feel his warm, salty seed hit the back of my throat. I swallow and suck until he softens and then look up as he slumps onto the wall. He grins at me. “Wow. You’re pretty good at that, Erik.”

I laugh while I continue to stroke my aching cock. Sliding down the wall, he pushes me over, and makes me lie back on the floor. He looks his fill and replaces my hand with his own. Leaning over me, he licks me from root to tip. I groan and he laughs. He looks at me and winks. “My turn.” Then, my dick disappears into the moist cavern of his mouth. His cheeks are hollowed out and the suction is amazing. I can tell it will be quick. He adds his other hand and cups my balls. Between his hands and mouth, I’m in heaven. As he moves up my shaft with his warm, wet mouth, his hands are moving down. The two sensations are amazing and I start thrusting into his mouth. I feel my balls tighten and he groans. “Not in my mouth. Tell me just before, because not in my mouth.”

I barely hear him. I’m about to blow. I gasp out, “Now.
Now…
” Taking me out of his mouth, he sits up and straddles me. His hands are moving nonstop and looking at him, I cum. I spurt all over his stomach and watch as he continues to milk me as my cum drips down his hard abs, getting all in his happy trail.

Finally, I’m spent and I lie back. He lies next to me on the floor and we both catch our breath. The night is filled with much of the same and the sex is off the charts. As the first lights of dawn touch the sky, we fall into slumber.
