“Is this him?” Doris asks, tipping her head back to look up at Adan. “He is quite nice, isn’t he? A bit pale, but it only adds to the edge.”
I bite my lip—my god, she’s bold.
“Adan, this is Doris. She tells it like it is, so don’t ask her a question. Doris, this is Adan.’
“Oh, dear, you’ll be fine.” Doris winks at me. “This one likes you.”
Adan grunts. “Don’t even want to know what you’ve been tellin’ her. We gotta go.”
“I’m just about to eat ...”
“Now,” Adan demands.
“I beg your pardon, young man. Just because you’re wearing that silly leather jacket doesn’t mean you can speak to her like that. You sit down and buy the woman a sandwich, it’s the very least you can do considering what she’s doing for you.”
Adan stares at Doris, and my mouth drops open just a touch. Oh, boy.
She really is scared of nothing.
And, much to my complete surprise, Adan sits down.
He does as she asks.
Well, well, the wild beast can be tamed after all.

“What do you mean why?” I ask, putting on a line of lipstick as I glance in the mirror.
Adan is behind me, watching me from the door, eyes narrowed. I’m wearing my sexiest dress, and when I say sexy, I mean sexy. It’s low cut, making sure my boobs are bulging out. Not only that, but it’s basically superglued to my body. I’m going on another date with Daniel, though I’m not sure he’ll appreciate the dress. It’s more for Adan’s benefit, anyway.
Afterall, he’s the one insistent on telling me I’m not attractive to him.
Blending mine and Doris’ plan, I am going to taunt him, while at the same time being flippant and not at all concerned about him, which will hopefully drive him crazy, give him a boner, and I can win this bet.
“Why the fuck are you goin’ on a date with Dr. Dick? He can’t even get a hard on.”
I fight the urge to smile. “Because Dr. Dick might just do better tonight, and god knows a girl needs it.”
“A girl needs what? A half soft cock being shoved into her?”
“So graphic, aren’t you?”
I smack my lips together and then flick my long dark hair over my shoulder, staring at myself in the mirror.
I don’t miss the way Adan’s eyes scan over my breasts, before moving up to meet my gaze in the mirror.
“If this doesn’t get him hard, I don’t know what will. Besides, you’re going to be at the club until late, I’m allowed a break, too.”
I turn and give him a huge smile. “What do you think?”
“You look like you belong on a street corner,” he mutters.
“Perfect!”
I practically skip past him, a huge grin on my face. Old Doris, she certainly knows a thing or two. Without her, this plan would have never swung into action the way it is now, she knows exactly what she’s doing. Clever old duck.
“What time are you done?” Adan asks, following me down the hall.
“I don’t know, it depends on Daniel.”
“He’s got one shot in him, if you’re lucky. So you’ll be done by 9?”
I laugh, crossing my arms as I turn toward him. “I’ll be out until midnight, don’t wait for me. I’m sure Riggs can drop you back here. I’ve changed your dressings, you’ll be okay until I get back.”
“What if I need a fuckin’ shower?”
“I’m sure Riggs has lovely gentle hands.”
He glares at me. “I’m goin’ to get laid tonight, you think I’m goin’ to go to sleep without showering?”
“Tarp up, you’ll be fine.”
His nostrils flare. “What the fuck are you gettin’ paid for then? You’re supposed to be takin’ care of me.”
“You hate me taking care of you. I’m done washing your dirty ass penis after sex anyway. I could catch anything from those girls you sleep with. Get one of them to do it.”
His glare intensifies, and my grin only gets bigger.
“Be home by ten.”
“No,” I say, grabbing my purse and turning toward the door.
“Fuckin’ yes,” he growls after me.
“Get in the car, I have somewhere to be.”
With a muttered curse, he follows me out the door and into the car. I drive him to the garage and drop him off there. It’s late afternoon, and they have business anyway so it’s not like he’s going to get bored. Besides, right now I have the upper hand, and I’m loving it.
“Don’t forget to wash your dick!” I call out of the car window as I drive away.
I’m sure if he could flip me the bird, he would.
I grin the entire way to the restaurant where Daniel is meeting me.
I can’t say I’m super excited about having another date with him but I also felt bad if I didn’t, I mean the man would have felt horrible after our last attempt. Sure, I’m not actually planning on sleeping with him again, but Adan doesn’t know that. I also swore to give nice guys a chance and so that’s what I’m going to do. Best case, we actually learn to like each other and our next attempt is much more successful. Worst case, nothing comes of it but at least I did the right thing.
