James (Resisting Love #3)(30)



“Hi, Kade, who’s your friend?” she purrs, licking her bright pink lips.

“He’s not interested,” I pipe up.

“How about you then, handsome?” she says as she runs her hand down Chase’s chest. Chase removes her hand, distaste evident on his face.

“Sorry, we’re all taken,” he says in a no-nonsense tone. She scowls, makes a comment about how we must be gay, and then saunters off to her next victim. We all take a huge gulp of our drinks. How our lives have changed. I think we are all thinking the same thing, because the next minute we're all laughing.

“Why didn’t she hit on you Kade?” I ask him, genuinely curious.

Kade looks sheepish. “I took her home once, and let’s just say we aren’t into the same shit.”

Chase and I lean closer. “She’s into pain, and yeah, not my thing,” Kade says, downing a shot as if remembering what had happened. When I see Tenielle stroll in, I grin.

“I thought this was a male only event?” I drawl.

Tee rolls her eyes and takes a seat next to me. “I thought I’d liven the place up a little. Besides if I were a man, we all know I’d have the biggest penis.”

“Where are you going, all dolled up?” Kade asks her.

“What, this old thing?” she asks sweetly, gesturing to her tight black dress that leaves nothing to the imagination. I notice she’s still wearing combat boots though. She orders three tequila shots. All for her, not us. When a guy notices her and smiles her way, Chase hovers around her.

“Chase, you need to relax. You look like a dragon about to breathe fire.” She laughs.

“You’re my sister,” he says.

“In law!” she corrects him.

“If you don’t wanna be over protected, don’t come out with us,” he fires back.

Tee laughs. The woman is nuts.

“Layla told me Derek moved to Melbourne,” she says to Kade.

“Yeah, he did.” I notice Chase smile at the news.

“Perth is way better than Melbourne,” she declares. We all nod in agreement. She downs her last shot and then stands up.

“Where do you think you’re going?” Chase demands.

“I’m meeting some friends at a club. There is this sexy DJ playing tonight, pale green eyes, body to die for. Oh and he’s pretty talented, too,” she says with a devilish grin.

“I’ll drive you,” Chase says.

“How does Layla put up with you?” she mutters under her breath, as she grabs her thick hair and ties it in a messy bun on the top of her head. Her twinkling brown eyes show that she just likes to annoy Chase.

“Hey, do you guys wanna come?” she asks, picking up her bag from the bar table.

“I always wanna cum,” Kade adds, being his usual self.

We all glance at each other and shrug.

“Why not?”

Chapter Fifteen


Sasha


Last night must have really been wild because Kade and Chase are fast asleep in the living room. James was up, early as ever, and took Jye out for lunch with his mother and father. He didn’t drink much last night, unlike the other two. I had calls from both Layla and Nikki this morning, wanting to know exactly what went on last night. They also told me to wake their men up so they can get their asses home.

I walk into the room and clear my throat, loudly. I poke Kade in the chest and he doesn’t even move. They're seriously passed out. I grin and head into the study. I pull out a black marker from the drawer, and then tip toe back into the living room. Once my artwork is done, I head out to work, laughing the entire ride.

“Did you draw penises on my brother’s faces?” he asks as soon as I walk through the front door.

“Why would you ask that?” I ask nonchalantly.

“Sasha,” he says, chuckling.

“They could've come home like that from the club, you know, they would have been too drunk to remember,” I point out. James gives me a full belly laugh, Jye getting bounced around by his chest moving up and down with the effort.

“Sasha.”

“Yes?” I ask, batting my eyelashes.

“Did you?” he asks, already knowing the answer by the twist of his lips.

“I might have. Did they get it off?” I ask with a smirk.

“Yeah, they did. I’d avoid Chase for a while, though,” James says, his eyes crinkling.

“Why?”

“He’s a little more uptight than Kade,” he says, biting his lip ring in thought.

“That’s true.”

“Plus, you did something to his picture that you didn’t do to Kade’s,” he says with a raised eyebrow. I laugh, remembering the droplet tear drops I drew on his chin. Oops.

“Hello, my baby,” I say to Jye, pulling him from James and into my arms. I peck James on the lips and then walk into the kitchen. My mouth drops open when I see beautiful dinner all set out, with candles and wine.

“What’s the occasion?” I ask in shock.

“You don’t need an occasion to get spoilt, Sasha. You had a long day at work, and I wanted to show you how much I appreciate you,” he says sincerely, his eyes taking in my reaction.
