“You can’t tell him,” Levi says, rolling his eyes.

“Why not?”

“Because, hmm, I don’t know…” he pins me with a glare, “he’ll kill you.”

At this, I snort. Jax Wheeler is a loser. Scum beneath my shoe. Some asshole who weaseled his way into my neighborhood. The only thing he ever did right in his life was spit some DNA into Rowan’s mother’s cunt.

“But can you imagine the look on his face?” I grin at him. Poor fuck would probably cry. Hell, he might try to beat my ass, but I don’t spend hours every morning in the gym before the sun comes up just to let my dick of a neighbor kick my ass.

“I can imagine it,” he says with a sigh. “I’m also pretty sure, deep down, he knows you’re fucking his kid. All I’m saying is there’s no need to provoke the beast.”

“I’m the beast,” I growl.

He shakes his head. “Whatever, man. We both know you’re going to do what you want anyway.”

Damn straight.

My phone buzzes from the table beside the pool lounger and I pick it up.

Angel: I’m on my way over.

Me: Hurry.

Angel: I miss you.

Smirking, I reply that I miss her too. And I do. The girl has crawled so far under my skin, I’ll never get her out. At one time, I’d thought she was like Julia. Now, I realize she’s better than Julia. Rowan is completely devoted to me. Julia wanted to be equals. I played her game for a while, especially when she was popping out my sons left and right, but I started to grow bored of it.

I like control.

I like to be the one in charge.

With my company. In my life. All aspects, I want to be on top.

My dick twitches at the thought of having Rowan beneath me last night. She whimpered and cried my name all night. The claw marks on my shoulder still hurt, and it makes me smile knowing she likes to mark me.

“You’re so pussy whipped,” Levi says as he stands and peels away his shirt.

I laugh. “And you’re not?”

“Nope,” he lies before running and doing a cannon bomb into the pool.

Me: Would you let Levi and I both fuck you at the same time?

I love getting her all fired up.

She doesn’t respond right away, which means she’s driving. When she finally reads her message, I can imagine her mouth popping open in shock and her cheeks blazing bright red. Cute as hell, my girl.

“Eric Pearson!”

Dragging my gaze from my phone to the back door, I find the source of the outraged screech. Holy fucking shit does she look like a goddamn dream today. She’s wearing a pair of cutoff shorts that aren’t buttoned or zipped and a tiny scrap of a white bikini top. It’s just transparent enough I can see the dark outline of her nipples through the fabric. My cock responds by jumping in my swim trunks.

Levi curses in the pool, and I almost laugh out loud. Rowan is a temptation to every man in the vicinity. Doesn’t matter if they’re pussy whipped or married or anything. One look at her, and the vision goes straight to their spank bank for later. While they’re fucking their pretty girlfriends or wives, they’re thinking about my angel. Her succulent tits and cunt so tight, she strangles a cock.

I rise from my lounger and stalk over to her. I want her naked. I want her legs wrapped around me while I bury my dick inside her. I want to fucking bite her. Having Levi here must have me feeling more possessive than normal because I’m three seconds from ripping off her clothes and marking my territory.

“My beautiful, sweet girl,” I growl as I grab her by the hips and pull her against me. My cock is stone between us. I thrust slightly against her so she knows just what she does to me. Her palms go to my bare chest, and she smiles brightly up at me.

“My handsome boyfriend.”

I chuckle and kiss her pouty mouth. She’s just as possessive over me, which entertains me to no end. When we’re together, she gets pissy if I even look in the same direction as another woman. Rowan Wheeler is territorial and jealous as shit. It turns me the fuck on.

“How much do you love me?” I tease.

Her smile falls, and she parts her lips. “So much.”

I knew it. The girl was in love the first time I pushed my dick into her. “Good girl. Good girls make their men happy, don’t they?”

She nods. “I want to make you happy.”

I grab her wrist and kiss the top of her hand. “Good. Come with me.” She follows behind me until we get to the steps of the pool. I wait for her to shimmy out of her shorts. This earns another curse from Levi. Once she’s in her sexy, not-so-innocent bikini, I guide her into the pool behind me. I drag her until she’s treading water. I love it when she’s out of her safety zone.

“This needs to go,” I tell her as I tug at the top of her bikini strings.

Her arms wrap around my neck, and she looks over her shoulder at Levi, her lip caught between her teeth.

“He’s not going to touch,” I assure her. “But he can watch. Watching is okay, right?”

“Yes. Is that what you want?”

“I want to show him what he can’t have,” I murmur as I pull her top away and let it fall to the bottom of the pool. Her tits jiggle with each breath she takes.

“I have someone. You know this,” he utters from nearby. Close. Where he can get a good view.

“And you’re not doing anything wrong,” I tell him.

He grumbles out a fuck you, and I laugh.

“This needs to go too, angel,” I murmur as I tug at the strings of Rowan’s bottoms and throw them over at Levi. He catches them in one hand and doesn’t let go. He backs away until his back is pressed against the side of the pool and stretches his arms out along the concrete ledge, relaxing.

I grab her hips and carry her over to him. “Levi, I need your help.”

He arches a dark, challenging brow. “Maybe I don’t want to help.”

“Just give her a place to sit,” I say with a cold stare.

His nostrils flare, but then he places his foot on the wall behind him, making a seat with his thigh. I set Rowan’s naked ass on his leg. He looks uncomfortable, but I can see the gleam in his twisted eyes. The fucker is curious to see how far I’ll take this.

She’s mine.

The thought is fierce, and he must sense it because he doesn’t move a muscle aside from the one in his neck that keeps ticking.

“Don’t let her fall,” I instruct him.

With a reluctant grumble, Levi hooks a strong arm around her waist. Jealousy spikes through me. It’s good, though. Seeing him with her in his grip is a good reminder of how much I want her. Her big brown eyes search mine. A healthy mix of curiosity, lust, and fear. She has her knees drawn together, so I push them away, making her straddle his hairy thigh. Her honey-kissed skin seems so fair against his tanned flesh. I reach forward to rub her clit between her hairless lips. She jolts at my touch and wiggles in his grip.

“Eric,” she whines. Fuck, I love when she begs.

I push my fingers inside her. “Mmmm?”

“I don’t want him. I want you.”

“You have me,” I tell her. “He’s just watching.”

“You’re such a dick,” Levi groans. His gaze is hot and angry.

“I know.” I massage her until she moans, her orgasm overtaking her. When she calms down, I twist her slight body around until she’s facing Levi. I unfasten my shorts and let them fall to the bottom of the pool. “Hold her,” I bark at him.

He groans, but stands up, pulling her naked flesh against his chest. She tries to look over at me, but I urge her to wrap her thighs around his waist. Before she can argue, I slide my dick into her slick pussy from behind. A loud moan escapes her.

“Tell her she’s hot,” I tell my friend, my gaze pinning him.

He clenches his jaw. “She knows she is.”

“But she needs to hear it.”

“You’re hot,” he bites out. His palms holding her upright slide ever so slightly to her ass, and my dick lurches inside her. I drive into her over and over.

“Eric,” she moans.

He tilts his head up to the sky, baring his throat to me. If I were a dog, I’d tear it out. She’s mine. He’s touching her. And if I were a dog, I’d kill him for it.

But I’m not a dog.

I’m a man.

A man who controls this shit. Every single move. Every single breath.

Sliding my palm to her throat, I grip her until she hisses. Her hands go to his shoulders. Now that she’s turning purple, my sick friend has no qualms at staring at my pretty girl. Her tits bounce against him as I grind into her. I release her throat.

“Tell Levi who I am,” I mutter. “Tell him who loves you.”

She shudders in my grip, her pussy growing slicker by the moment. “You do.”

“Who am I?”

My girl knows the game.

“Daddy.”

“Jesus Christ,” Levi hisses. He’s a kinky fuck like me.

“That’s right,” I snarl. “Say it louder so the whole goddamn neighborhood knows.”

“Daddy loves me!” she yells, her body quaking with pleasure.

The fucker loses control and bucks against her, his eyes wild with lust. He’s clothed in just his swim trunks, but I can feel his cock pressing against my hand, desperately seeking her warmth. My hand slides to her tit. I revel in the sharp gasp of air that hisses from her when his cock rubs against her now that my hand is out of the way. I push and push and fucking push until I have them both pinned against the side of the pool. The water splashes around us. Levi grunts as though he’s furious, and Rowan moans. When she cries out with her orgasm, I feel my nuts seize up in pleasure.

“Good girl,” I grunt as I spill my seed into her. Levi makes a choked sound. The moment we all relax, he pushes her into my arms, then hoists himself out of the pool.

“Drinks later?” I call after him, enjoying a good taunt.

He lifts both hands in the air and flips me off before slipping inside the house.

“I guess we’ll drink alone,” I tease as I slide her off my softening cock.

She twists in my arms and attacks my mouth with hers. “Did you mean it?” she asks breathlessly.

I grip her ass so hard, she yelps. “Of course I fucking meant it. I love you, angel. You’re mine. What part of that needed clarification?”

She giggles. “All of it. Say it again.”

I lean my forehead against hers. “I love you.”

“I love you too, Daddy.”

I fuck her again, alone, until she screams loud enough to let the entire neighborhood know what we’re up to. Levi isn’t the only one around here who gets off on that shit. She’s mine, and I live to daddy the fuck out of her.
