I’m on my third scotch and I’ve only been here for fifteen minutes. “Leave the bottle.” The bartender doesn’t argue, as I’ve just given her the night off.

Skimming my finger around the rim of my glass, I can’t shake this heavy feeling in the pit of my stomach. I could pretend it’s got to do with Gail—the slimy grease ball, but I know it has nothing to do with him and everything to do with Mary.

I can’t help but wonder what she’s doing and who she’s doing it with. She didn’t specify where exactly she was going, and my mind is conjuring up god-awful scenarios of her being wined and dined by the Australian dickhead.

She’s failed to mention Trent, which has me hoping her lapse in sanity has passed. Mary doesn’t look like the cheating type, but she apparently is the friends with benefits type. Am I the only friend? Or does she have a few? The thought has me unscrewing the lid of my scotch and filling my glass full.

“You’re starting early.” Keira sits down beside me. In my head, I thumb my nose at Mary when she doesn’t slide down it.

“Yeah, I need to get wasted to deal with your asshole boss. His brown-nosing skills are actually better than his job skills.” I turn my head to the left, almost gagging when I see him re-enacting some ridiculous story of what looks like him pole vaulting over an elephant’s scrotum.

Mr. Yeong has sent his two righthand men. I thought they were on my team, but them being here proves their loyalties lie with no one. Gail is being his usual asswipe self, which works in my favor as Ming and Jie look as amused as me.

“Why don’t you put everyone out of their misery then and tell me how I can help? Two heads are better than one,” she sweetly purrs.

“Why do you think I hold some miracle cure?” I question, genuinely curious.

Reaching for my glass, she throws back the entire contents before wiping her glossy lips with the back of her hand. “Because I know you, and you’d have Mr. Yeong as a client by now if you could. Something is stopping you.”

She waits for me to corroborate her claims, but I smirk in response. It’s going to take a lot more than a pretty face and a night filled with empty promises to make me spill—although I had no qualms telling Mary.

Glancing down at my watch, I see that it’s been a minute and thirty-seven seconds since I thought of her. Go me. “Nothing is stopping me. Unlike him”—I point my finger at the jockstrap who is now laughing at his own joke—“I take what I want, when I want. I’m just biding my time.”

Keira doesn’t look convinced, but seems to forget what we’re talking about when she crawls her fingernails up my thigh. “I should be offended then.” I jolt when she shamelessly grabs my cock. “You’ve yet to take me. Is that because you
