"So usually they just stand around and shoot the shit until they're drunk enough to handle seeing each other's cocks," Cassidy said as she walked us down the hall.

Our shoes clacked against the marble flooring and even against my wishes, anxiety flared inside me.

I was doing this to get back at him. And I looked hot. Even if Austin wouldn't fuck me I knew that me being here would fuck with him enough already.

But something in me just felt so... nervous about being in a room with all of them. Cassidy had warned me that they probably all talked about it already and wouldn't expect me to show up. It was another hit to my confidence.

They were probably laughing about it. Laughing about how he single handily destroyed our marriage to get his dick wet. I wouldn't put it past him to start bragging about it. Heat burned my face.

I realized as I hesitated when the door came into views, that it was shame that caused me to feel this way. Shame that after so many years of being together my husband was cheating on me. Shame that I was good enough, or attractive enough to keep a husband.

I had been through enough therapy to recognize those dangerous self-sabotaging thoughts, but that didn't make their impact any less.

"It takes Austin some time to get ready. He'll usually be walking around talking to people so I'll help you try and find someone to stay with until it's time."

Until it's time.

"So is this like a ritual he does?" I asked shooting her a glance. "Fucking random women in his million dollar penthouse."

"Twenty million but beside the point." She pushed us towards the door before forcing me to turn to her. She had that mischievous smile on her face again. "He doesn't always take someone upstairs but I have a feeling that if we play our cards right you'll be in there tonight."

I gave her a look. Just who was this person I had enlisted to help me?

"How do you know that?" I asked, raising a brow at her.

She turned us back to the door.

"Because having a mistress and a wife under one roof is messy and there's one thing we all know that Austin loves more than being in control." The doors opened for us giving me a sight into the dim penthouse. Music filtered out into the hallway and the scent of alcohol hit me. "The opportunity for black mail."

I was silenced as multiple people turned to look at us. One of them being my husband. Seeing his shocked face as I walked arm in arm with his mistress was almost worth the entire trip. And seeing it only reaffirmed what I wanted to do here.

I straightened my shoulders and lifted my chin. Cassidy whispered in my ear as she took us further into the penthouse. She made note to tell me everyone's name and their titles.

My eyes caught two figures staring at us from the back. Both of them were standing with their backs to the window and a drink in hand. The man on the right was none other than Austin Beck. I had seen him multiple times at the holiday parties and through social media, but damn did I forget how goo that fucker look good in person.

He had salt and pepper hair that was slicked back to show off his dark eyes. He had a light stubble but paired with his suit, it added a rugged twist to his look. He was handsome and far more unnerving in person.

The woman next to him though... I remembered here from the holiday part a few years back. She was tall, taller than Austin. Her brown hair was short on the sides and long on top. It was styled in a way that caused it to fall in her face but didn't hide the playfulness in her grey eyes.

She had seen me getting my pussy ate in public.

I had wanted her too, that was the worst part. She looked even better now than she did then.

A surge of panic went through me when she left Austin's side to come straight towards us.

"Oh this is good," Cassidy said, giggling in my ear. "Patrick fucking hates her. Imma see if she'll take you for the time being. Addison Barr, VP, and number one Patrick hater."

Just my luck.

"Serenity, was it?" Addison asked as she came to stand in front of us. She towered over us. I had to tilt my head to meet her gaze. Her full lips were pulled into a playful smile and her eyes shined with the same mischief that filled Cassidy's.

I hadn't remembered her voice being so deep. Nor did it have that sensual tone last time. Though maybe she was being intentional now.

"Addison," I greeted. Cassidy waved a small goodbye before she left our side. Addison didn't even spare her a glance.

"Ah you remember me," she said, her voice taking a teasing tone. "I thought you would have been too busy getting off to even remember. Was it that bad?"

My face heated at the mention of what she saw.

"Yes," I said bluntly but ended it with a smile. "Though with you standing there watching me I was sure I was going to come. Too bad you ran away."

Her lips twitch, almost as if she was trying to stifle her laughter, though I didn't realize I had made a joke.

"Well next time I'll make sure to stay the entire time." She took a step closer causing me to stop breathing entirely. When she bent down to whisper in my ear I almost lost my cool facade. "Or maybe this time I can show you what it's really like to get your pussy eaten, hm?"

Her bluntness caused a heat to rise in me so sharp it made my head spin.

"You're direct."

She pulled away with a smile.

"I know what I want," she countered. "Though you showing up in this," she let the hand that wasn't holding the drink trail the scoop neckline of my dress. My nipples hardened when her skin brushed across mine. The two points were obvious in my dress. "I think you do as well."

The air tensed around us. It had been the same as in that hallway. As soon as our eyes met my felt a heat building up inside me and now that she was in front of me it caused my body to react in ways that it hadn't for years.

Was this what it felt like to feel wanted?

Maybe... but it was so much more than that. It was her.

I forced a smile to my face and looked up at her from under ray lashes.

"Why don't you get me a drink and show me around a bit?" I asked. "Maybe if we pass a hallway of our own I'll take you up on that offer."

This time she let out her laugh, causing all the men nearby to stare at us. I couldn't help but look towards Patrick. Cassidy was on his arm, but his eyes were on us. His face looked pinched and for the first time he realized what an open relationship would look like for me... and he didn't like it one bit.

Addison's arm snaking around my shoulders caused me to jump.

"Oh we won't need a hallway, baby," she murmured as she steered me towards the bar cart. "I swear to you by the time I get you where I want you, you'll be willing to let me feast on you, and right in front of that asshole husband of yours."

My body hummed at the image of her spreading me out on one of the couches and while going down on me. My dress would be wicked up around my hips giving her and everyone a view of my cunt as she forced me to come for her.

I imagined screaming her name while I looked Patrick in the eyes.

God this was going to be so perfect.
