Alicia

My phone alerted me to a new message. I looked at the screen and, sure enough, it was from Ryan. The devil in disguise. He wanted to meet for a drink, promising—and this was a surprise—full disclosure.

My body began to exude heat, from my thighs all the way up. I realized how relieved I was that he had texted, but now it was time to fortify myself and be strong. He was a charming, too-gorgeous-for-his-own-good man, and I needed to keep my head on straight. I had the feeling that he would try to wiggle out of telling me the truth. I stood a little straighter, imagining our conversation and not letting him slide.

I dressed carefully. Sometimes a woman’s strength came from her sexiest lingerie, and I put on a red lace thong and matching red bra like armor. He wouldn’t see it, but I would feel it. I topped the lingerie with a tank top and flowy skirt. I pulled my hair back into a ponytail and applied my makeup carefully and lightly.

He was already at a beachside table when I arrived at the Boathouse, and I took a deep breath when I saw him. I felt butterflies in my stomach and a familiar, pleasant ache between my legs. I walked to the table, and he stood to greet me. I could tell he was nervous.

“Hello, Ryan.”

He made a move to kiss me hello but I pulled away, leaving him awkwardly kissing the air. My body was screaming at me, What are you doing? But my mind was in charge tonight, and we were not leaving without answers.

“Alicia,” he said. His eyes flashed that brilliant blue and I felt myself begin to melt. “How are you?”

“I’m fine, how are you?”

Before he could answer, our server approached. The universe was smiling on me, because our waiter was an absolutely gorgeous man who was probably a would-be pro surfer who only waited tables to avoid homelessness and starvation.

“Hi folks, how are we tonight?”

I smiled warmly at the waiter, rounding my shoulders to press my breasts together. “We’re fine. How are you?”

He took a nice, long look. I caught Ryan’s fish mouth out of the corner of my eye and stifled a smile.

“See,” I said to Ryan after the waiter had left to get our drinks. “I’m not the only one who knows how to flirt with servers.”

“Apparently. Impressive…skills,” he said, looking suggestively at my chest.

I rolled my eyes; he was trying to flirt but came across like a bull in a china shop.

“Sorry,” he said. “Listen, the group is going away for the weekend to Mercy Landing, this absolutely amazing private resort lodge in the mountains. I would love it if you came. I dig hanging out with you and all my friends like you. Plus,” he blushed, “I want to make up for not being forthcoming with you about the club.”

He had no intention of telling me about the club; he wanted me to be his arm candy again.

“How about this?” I asked, seething.
