Chapter Twenty Three

Maggie

“What are you ladies up to this morning?” Pearl asked cheerfully.

I relayed the bald faced lie about leaving the beach early to Pearl, and she totally bought it. She even appeared sad to see us go.

I had never felt more like a heel.

“Hubert?” Pearl repeated in an attempt to gain his attention. “Will you be a sweetheart and prepare us a morning libation, before I must say goodbye to my lovely new friends?”

Hubert seemed relieved to gently slide Irene’s head from his shoulder and lean her back on the couch. You have never seen a man leap from a couch so fast as when Irene’s fingers began inching across the supple leather. “Bloody Mary’s all around, ladies?”

“That would be perfect,” I lied, yet again. There wasn’t one single thing perfect about drinking liquor this early in the day.

Irene’s eyes followed Hubert’s every move, well, more like his backside, acting the very definition of some trollop from the docks.

I’m surprised she hadn’t already strangled from all the drool puddling in her mouth.

We walked to the bar to retrieve our drinks.

With drinks in hand, we took our seats, with the exception of Irene. She stood at the floor to ceiling windows, pretending to watch a passing cruise ship disappear into the horizon, as she schemed.

We were engaged in idle chitchat when Irene, right in front of Pearl’s observant eyes, walked over to Hubert’s chair, which was a chair he had obviously chosen due to its ability to seat only one person at a time. Not to be deterred, Irene plopped down on the arm of his chair and had the nerve to lean back so her breasts would jut out, in what she hoped was a tantalizing manner.

I’ll be honest with you, I was at my wit’s end with that woman.

“Irene, I am warning you for the last time,” I snapped.

Had the woman taken a complete leave of her senses? Calliope and I exchanged a what do we do now glance.

Lo and behold, if Irene didn’t go so far as to lay her cheek on top of Hubert’s head. I kid you not. She closed her glassy eyes, exhaled a sigh of erotic bliss and purred, “Hi, handsome. You wanna play?”

I had officially heard and seen it all.

Pearl completely astounded one and all by winking at Irene. “He is handsome, isn’t he, Irene?”

“Extremely,” Irene murmured, absolutely smitten with the man.

Pearl seemed rather too accepting of the fact that a much younger woman was coming on to her man.

She placed her drink on a coaster on the coffee table and licked her lips. “What would you do with a man like Hubert, Irene?”

What more did Pearl expect Irene to do?

She had already about sucked the skin off Hubert’s middle finger, nearly chewed off his earlobe, and left his Polo soaking wet with drool.

Irene’s eyes swiveled to meet Hubert’s as she sat up and gave him her full attention. Hubert would only need to raise his head, slightly, for their lips to touch.
