"So?"

"Was it as good the second time?"

I felt myself flushing like a 13-year-old discussing her first crush. "No." I cleared my throat, dabbed at my lips with a napkin. "It was better."

She boggled at me. "You said the first time, and I quote, 'ruined you', and that it was the best sex of your life."

"Yes. That's still true. And round two was even better. Quite literally, round two was the hottest thing that's ever happened to me."

"What did he do?" she demanded in a hiss.

"He was awake when I got back from your room. He ordered me to take off the robe, and then made me masturbate while he watched." I was whispering so quietly that Lindsey had to put her ear nearly to my lips.

Lindsey clapped a hand over her mouth. "Holy shit."

"But he wouldn't let me come until I was riding his face. Linz, I'm telling you, I've never come so hard or so many times in my life." I swallowed hard, shaking my head. "It was…epic. That's what it was."

"Which is why you were still asleep when I knocked on your door? And why you didn't answer any of my six texts or three calls?"

I glanced at Raquel—not that I didn't trust her, but my relationship with Lindsey was deeper, and this was very, very personal. "I didn't oversleep. I actually woke up kinda early and spent a good hour freaking out while Duncan slept. And then I, um, I sort of woke him up with a blow job."

"As in, he woke up in your mouth?"

"Uh, no, not exactly. I sort of played with him first."

"So when I knocked?"

"I'd just finished blowing him and he was kissing me."

"You let him kiss you after you blew him?" Obviously, she knew about my hangup and where it came from.

"We talked about that, actually, and…yeah."

She blinked at me. “Rune, that's a big deal."

"No it's not," I lied.

"You're still in denial!" she said, way too loudly.

Raquel glanced at us in the mirror. "You think I don't see you two whispering about Rune's fucked-up situation with Duncan?"

"Uh-oh! Drama!" Robbie sing-songed.

“It's not a fucked-up situation!" I argued.

Raquel and Lindsey shared a look and then burst into identical cackling laughs.

"Oh, sweetie," Lindsey sighed. "You're so far into denial you don't even realize it."

"It's just good sex!" I insisted. “That's all it is! That's all it ever will be!"

"You told me he ruined you." Lindsey arched an eyebrow at me. "I dunno about you, Raquel, but if I had sex with someone and it ruined me, I wouldn't be walking away so easily."

Raquel grinned. "I did have sex with someone who ruined me." She paused for dramatic effect. "I'm marrying him in a couple hours."

"Okay, but can we talk about that, though?" Lindsey said. "What is it about sex with Hamish that's so good?"

Raquel sighed dreamily. "It's the connection. He just…he gets me. It's like he knows my body. It also doesn't hurt that…" she trailed off, glancing at Robbie.
