Beautiful Broken Rules (Broken, Series #1)(78)

“Take the left hallway. It’s the last one on the right,” I told him.

When she realized where he was taking her, she stopped fighting him. “Thanks, Em,” he called back, turning down the hallway at the top of the stairs. Thank God, he had come to work things out.

I walked up to my room to take a shower. I took all my clothes off and searched for ones to change into for the day. My phone started ringing, but it sounded different from my regular ringtone. When I found it, I realized that’s not what was ringing, and then remembered that I had kept my laptop open in case Jaxon and I could actually catch one another online. I positioned the screen so it only displayed my bare shoulders and face, since I was already undressed for my shower.

I answered excitedly, “Hi, baby!”

“Damn, beautiful, you’re a sight for sore eyes.” He looked tired, but he also looked really tan and if it were possible he looked even more muscular. As if all he had been doing this whole time was working out in the sun. Which is probably exactly what he had been doing.

“Wow, you don’t look so bad yourself,” I winked at him. “So… I’m pretty sure Quinn and Cole finally made up,” I told him.

“Oh yeah? Why do you think that? I thought I would’ve never heard the end of it from him, if that were finally to happen.”

“He just showed up here and dragged her upstairs,” I laughed.

“What? He flew back? That bastard,” he grumbled, sounding upset.

“Why do you say that? I’m honestly glad I don’t have to follow a crying Quinn around anymore.”

“No, I’m glad they are making up. I’m just jealous he got to go see his girlfriend. I’m about two seconds away from jumping on a plane myself, especially after seeing your gorgeous face again,” he grinned at me through the screen. I loved that little smirk on the edges of his lips.

“I’m glad you caught me, I was about to jump in the shower.”

“Yeah, Jace and I are wiped. Mom has a million things for us to do. We just came in for some lunch.” He smiled at me and then I watched as realization hit him. “Babe, do you have a shirt on?”

I shook my head at him. “I was about to get into the shower,” I reminded him coyly.

“So, you actually don’t have anything on at all right now?” When I shook my head, he leaned forward and groaned. “Just move the camera down a little bit.” He pointed downward.

I decided to do him one better and lean back in my chair so he could still see my face while he got a show of my chest. I loved the lust that engulfed his blue eyes. When I reached down to cup my breasts in both hands and push them together for him, I swear I heard him growl.

I was about to ask him to show me something, when I spotted Jace walking into the room behind him. His eyes shot wide when he saw me in my compromising position on his brother’s screen. I rocked back forward so the camera was back on just my shoulders and face. Jaxon jutted that plush bottom lip out at me in a cute pout. I almost returned to my seduction, but I remembered how mad he would be when he realized Jace was behind him. Who, by the way, was still standing there with a big Cheshire cat grin on his face.

“Uh, Jax?” I asked.

“Yeah, Beautiful?” he responded breathily.

“Next time we should do this with your bedroom door closed.” I pointed behind him. His head shot behind him to look at his brother.

“Damn, Em, I knew you had a great rack, but wow…” Jace leaned over to look at me from behind his brother, who was now standing up.
