Chapter Twenty-Four

My truck rolls to a stop in front of Mrs. Townsend’s house, and I make a point of waving when I get out. She can let the whole town know I’m here for all I care. I’ll get hero points when Jason confirms I’m doing him a solid.

Macey answers the door with a guilty smile. “Thank you so much for doing this, we all appreciate it.”

We all. The fact that I’m an outsider in the Macey-Jason-Sterling besties triangle grates at me. I know Macey’s body inside and out - the super sensitive spots that drive her wild when I kiss them, the way she likes her oral, and just how hard she likes her gorgeous nipples sucked. I know she loves to make out while we’re fucking, but only if we’re not in a hurry. I know she likes variety. I know her in all the ways that matter to keep her pleasured… and nothing else. And suddenly, I like that a whole lot less.

I can’t ask about her past, because all roads point to Johnny McCaslin and his ghost that stands between us. And I sure as fuck can’t ask about her future, because this is just a fling. Nothing more. But now that I’ve been made the adult in charge of her daughter, it doesn’t feel right that I know nothing more about her than she’s a somm, and she likes to quote Bridget Jones on occasion.

“Austin?” Her brows knit together. “Are you okay?”

“Yeah, yeah.” I nod, giving myself a mental shake. This is just business, I remind myself. I don’t want to be on the inside. There’s too much baggage to deal with, too much emotion.

Her face melts into an expression of relief. “Good, good. Sophie’s just finishing up breakfast. Why don’t you come in and say hi.” She steps back and lets me into the house. I step cautiously into the inner sanctum I’ve been trying to breach for weeks, suddenly ill at ease. The irony that I’m here at my brother’s invitation, and to do no more than babysit, isn’t lost on me. It’s modest, but tidy. The wood floors and fixtures look to be original. Macey leads me into the kitchen, where her mini-me sits at the table. “Soph, you remember Uncle Jason’s brother, Austin?”

She turns her big blue eyes on me, and fuck me, it’s like she can see straight into my soul. “You’re the one Uncle Jason doesn’t like.”

“Sophie,” Macey admonishes, cheeks burning bright.

I wave her off. “It’s okay.” It’s awkward as fuck, but I’ll manage.

“No, it’s not,” Macey answers firmly, staring directly at Sophie. “She needs to remember her manners.”

“Why doesn’t Uncle Jason like you?”

I jump in before Macey can respond. “Because big brothers never like their little brothers.”

Sophie gives me an assessing look, then nods. “Joey doesn’t like his little brother. He says he’s a brat.”

“Sophie.” Macey’s voice holds a note of warning.

“Most little brothers are,” I say, relieved that my answer was enough.

“Can you please take your cereal bowl to the dishwasher?” Macey asks Sophie.
