“Rachel,” I said, scratching the back of my neck. I glanced down the hall and could have sworn I heard the shower still running. I had to get Rachel out of here quickly, or else I knew Sienna would have a lot of things to say to her. “It’s over.”
Her eyes narrowed. “It can’t be over. I made a mistake, and I apologized.”
“That’s good for you, but I don’t want you back. I made a mistake.”
“A mistake? You were the one that asked me to marry you.”
Her voice was getting louder, and I knew Sienna would hear her as soon as the water turned off.
“Rachel, you need to leave.”
“No, I don’t. This is my house, too.”
“Not anymore,” I said. Her display was bordering on pathetic now. I’d never seen her so distraught. Her hair was sticking up in random spots and she wasn’t wearing any makeup. I wondered if she’d slept since the wedding.
“Well, this certainly is a role-reversal,” Sienna said from behind me.
I turned to see her wearing one of my button-down shirts. It barely reached her thighs,.
Damn, she looked good in my clothes.
“Sienna?” Rachel said then turned to me. “You left me for this trailer trash?”
Sienna rolled her eyes. “The only trash in this room is you. Face it: you blew it with Parker.”
This wasn’t going to be good.
Rachel’s eyes flashed. It was the angriest I’d ever seen her. “You embarrassed me in front of everyone I knew. I’m going to get both of you back for this.”
“All right, Rachel, I think you should go,” I said, leading her to the door.
She ripped her arm away from me. “Don’t touch me. You’re an asshole, Parker. I’m going to make sure everyone knows it.”
Sienna’s opinion was the only one that mattered to me. Besides, if Rachel tried to go on social media and talk shit about my company, it wouldn’t be in my hands for much longer. Rachel was a lot of talk and no action. I knew that firsthand.
Rachel let out a frustrated screech as the door closed behind her. I made sure to lock it, in case she decided to come back into my home.
“Well, that was fun,” Sienna said, grinning.
“You heard the whole conversation?”
“Most of it,” she said, “I thought your shirt would be a nice touch.”
I went to her and scooped her into my arms, kissing her hard. “Are you sure you have to leave now? You look so fucking hot in my shirt.”
She kissed me on the tip of my nose. “Save that thought for later. I’ll be sure to make it worth your while.”
I groaned and put her down, following her into the bedroom. I watched Sienna change into the same clothes she’d worn the night before.
“You can bring some clothes over here if you want,” I said. “For nights that you stay over.”
Her hazel eyes locked on mine. “Are you sure that’s not moving too quickly?”
“Not at all. Sienna, I was a fool for far too long. I want a future with you, and you alone. Besides, we can skip that whole ‘getting to know you’ phase. We already know everything there is to know about each other.”
“Very true.” She slipped her arms around my middle and tilted her head up to me. I closed my mouth around hers and kissed her. A little moan escaped her lips, sending my insides into a flurry.
Her tongue slipped into my mouth. It tasted minty, like my toothpaste. I grabbed her by the waist and lifted her up until her legs were dangling off the ground. I held her tight against me, never wanting to let her go.
