Banking the Billionaire (Billionaire Bad Boys, #2)(39)

By:Max Monroe


I sighed. "You haven't even tried it yet."

Another grunt.

"C'mon," I instructed, kneeling down and picking him up. "Once your  little ass hits this cotton cloud of heaven, it will be love at first  touch." I gently placed him on the bed, and he just sat there, looking  at me.

"Philmore, you need to try better than that, dude."

He snorted but proceeded to root through the blankets with his nose. I  watched avidly for a few minutes until he appeared to be enjoying his  humble new abode.

I sat down beside the bed and softly ran my fingers over his back. "I  think you'll be really happy here, buddy. New York is a pretty cool  place to live. The rent is exorbitant, but yeah, that shouldn't concern  you since you'll be mooching off us. Well, Thatch. Technically, I'm kind  of mooching off him right now too. That makes you and me tight. An  unbreakable bond, okay? Even though I bought you for him. Between me and  you, it's solely because I'm focused on out-pranking the prankster, but  I can't deny you're one cute little bastard."

Yeah, but your main focus isn't on pranks and one-upping Thatch anymore …

Okay, so maybe my focus had changed. Maybe my focus was just him, plain  and simple. Well, confusing and complicated was probably more like it,  but it didn't change the fact that I truly loved screwing with him. I  fucking loved keeping Thatch on his toes.

Phil lay down on the bed, resting his chin on my thigh, and looked up at me.

I took in his little piggy face and grinned before continuing to give  him the ins and outs of the city. "The food is phenomenal, but skip the  sushi at Duane Reade. I made that mistake once and nearly shit my brains  out for a week."         

     



 

In hindsight, I really should have known. But I'm the kind of person who  actually needs to touch the hot stove to confirm it's hot, even though  you already fucking told me.

"I should probably warn you that pigs are illegal in the Big Apple, but  don't worry, I found a way to get around that rule," I said as I rubbed  the prickly hairs of his back.

"You're going to have to get used to walking places."

He grunted and nudged my arm with his nose.

"Sorry, but them's the breaks in New York. Cabs are too expensive when  you live here full time. You should probably consider getting a  MetroCard. And I know you'll love Central Park. It will be your happy  place, for sure. Since I'm not really the type of chick that enjoys  participating in movement outside of getting from one place to the next,  I'll make sure Thatch takes you there. That big asshole is always  running and working out and shit."

Eventually, his little eyes started to drift closed until he rolled to his side and fell fast asleep.

I headed into the kitchen and cleaned up the mess I had left during  Phil's arrival. Empty bags, torn tags from his new toys and collar, and a  half-empty bowl of food and water littered the stainless steel space.  Once I had all of the trash thrown away and Phil's belongings set up the  way I wanted, I made myself comfortable on the couch and flipped on the  television.

By the time Thatch walked through the door, I was forty minutes into a  Lifetime movie I couldn't stop watching. "Jesus, Deb, get your shit  together," I yelled at the screen. "Oh, my God. Are you blind? Julianna  is an asshole. She's going to kill everyone!"

"Honey, I'm home and I've got takeout," Thatch called from the kitchen.  "Think maybe you can take a break from Lifetime and come enjoy it with  me?" he asked in a teasing tone.

"Bring it out here," I whined. "I need to see the end of this movie even though I already know what's going to happen."

He walked into the living room and set the bag of food on the coffee table. "Already seen it?"

"Nope. But there are always two certainties with Lifetime movies. One," I  said, holding up one finger in his direction, "is that the acting is  always terrible. And two-" I held up another finger "-they're  predictable as fuck."

He chuckled as he sat down beside me. "Then why watch them?"

"Are you kidding me? Because Lifetime movies are addictive. They're so awful they're good."

"That makes zero sense."

I shrugged. "Yeah, well, consider it another mystery of the female  population. Who knows why women love these movies? But they do, and I'm a  testament to that very fact."

"That's unfortunate for you," he teased.

"You know what's unfortunate?" I pointed the remote toward the screen.  "That Deb can't figure out her twin sister Julianna is a fucking  psychopath."

"Which one is which?" he asked, opening the bag and pulling out a large  white foam container. After setting it on the table, he reached up to  loosen his tie. Climbing to my knees, I pushed his hands out of the way  and did it for him. His eyes looked like melted chocolate.

The leather felt cool on my shins, so I rolled back over to sit beside him.

"Deb is the one that looks like she just rose from the dead. She  obviously needs a tutorial on good Goth makeup. And Julianna is the cunt  with the long blond hair," I answered, watching him lift the lid of the  container. Once the aroma of refried beans and cheese and salsa and  chicken hit my nose, I damn near dove face first into the food. "Did you  get nachos?" I asked excitedly.

He winked. "Sure did, honey."

"I'm going to let that fucking wink slide because you just made my  night." I grabbed one of the chips from the container and took a crunchy  bite. "Mmmmmmm," I moaned over a mouthful.

"Good?"

"Javelina has the best nachos in the city." I nodded. "I'd do a lot of things for these nachos."

"How about you give me a kiss as thanks?" he suggested, pointing to his cheek.

I got up on my knees once more and pressed my lips to his cheek. "Thanks, honey. How'd you know I was in the mood for nachos?"

He grabbed my hips and lifted me into his lap with ease, and his strong  hands rearranged my legs so that I straddled his thighs. "You mentioned  them," he answered, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear.

I tilted my head, combing the flecks of subtle gold speckled throughout  his irises. "I'm not much for spouting sentimental bullshit, but I  should say that I really enjoy when you're sweet like this. Especially  when you feed me my favorite nachos."         

     



 

"I'll make a mental note that nachos are the true way to your heart." He  smirked and pressed a soft kiss to the corner of my mouth.

I pointed to the other corner of my mouth.

He kissed that too.

I gestured to my nose.

His lips followed that demand as well.

When I pointed to my lips, he slid his fingers into my hair and held my  gaze for a few poignant seconds, his eyes searching deep into mine. For  what, I'm not sure, but I couldn't deny the flutter in my belly and the  quickening of my breath as his mouth moved toward mine. I watched his  lashes sweep down, and the second I felt his lips, my eyes fell closed.

The kiss was demanding from the onset, his tongue slipping past my lips  and dancing with mine in the hopes of producing a moan. His fingers  stayed in my hair, caressing the strands and encouraging me to deepen  the kiss together. Which I did willingly, because fuck, this man could  kiss. His soft, full lips held all sorts of power. They could've  convinced me to do just about anything in that moment.

"Fuck, Cassie," he groaned as his hands slid down my back and grabbed my  ass. He pulled my hips closer to his, and I finally gave him the moan  he was hoping for, right against his mouth. The Supercock was hard and  ready, pressed against me.

Delicious nachos and the Lifetime movie were long forgotten.

I wanted him. Hell, I needed him to the point that I was stunned by my  desperation. The moment was fueled by lust yet laced with an undertone  of something more, something different, something my brain couldn't  fully process.

Far off in the distance-as in the same room-I heard a rustling behind us.

But I ignored it, too consumed with this sexy-as-fuck man. My hands  moved down his broad shoulders and slid over the muscles of his biceps.  He was cut. His body was one I could spend hours and hours examining  with my mouth and probably never have my fill.

The rustling grew louder, and a few snorts accompanied the noise.

Shit.

Thatch paused and pulled away from the kiss. His head tilted to the side  as his gaze stared deep into mine. "Did you just snort?"

I had two options in this scenario. Either fess up and risk popping the  soon-to-be bubble of hot and sweaty sex or …  "Yes," I lied.

Obviously, option two was the best choice. I wanted him naked and  between my thighs, and I had a feeling if I revealed my teacup surprise,  Thatch wouldn't be feeling all that horny.

Angry? Yes. Horny? Probably not.

His face grew skeptical, the line of his mouth turning down minutely,  and he attempted to glance around me, but I grabbed both of his cheeks  and forced our noses together.
