Chapter 172: Ruin My Vacation
Chapter 172: Ruin My Vacation
“Don’t worry, she won’t mind.”
“You can’t guarantee that without running it past her.” Cage felt a little protective of Angelina, in all reality. Despite how distraught she was over her own issues, she buckled up and made sure Cage made his way to Katherine. He owed her for that. And for that, he needed to make sure his manager wasn’t being a douchebag. On top of that, Angelina was a very good friend of Katherine’s. He didn’t want to be stuck between those relationships if something goes wrong between Stephen and Angelina. That seemed unfair.
“I’ll ask her once I know how to phrase it properly.” Cage could imagine Angelina screaming in rage and almost shuddered.
“Do as you will. Just don’t ruin my vacation.”
“I won’t. I promise. I know she is interested in me because she was sending me signals, man. You know how I get about food and she used it as a weapon against me! She sucked on her fingers when she got gravy on it and showed off her cleavage every chance she got. I nearly died of a heart attack. Even when she was beating the shit out of that woman, I swear to god I was drooling. She was so damned sexy…” Cage groaned. He really didn’t want to hear this. To his credit, he had never spoken like this about Katherine to anyone. Even Stephen.
“Don’t get a hard-on while you are driving,” Cage cautioned.
“Too late. Just thinking about her makes me go whoop. You understand, right?” Yes, he did understand. It was a problem. No wonder, Katherine had handed him three bottles of lotion.
Thank god, he was too busy missing her to get hard thinking about her. Sex was not at the forefront of his mind. He just wanted to hold her. “No, thank you.”
“One of us got laid yesterday and it wasn’t me. I am sure you don’t have blue balls, my friend.”
“Can you sound less envious?” Cage asked with a glare.
“Fine. But I have to say, I have been by your side for many years now and I have never seen you so happy. The way you look at her,” Stephen sighed dreamily. Cage rolled his eyes. Stephen was such a romantic. One wouldn’t figure if they saw him, but he was a complete softie at heart. “She looks at you the same way, too.” Stephen and his ships.
“Okay, shut up. You are making it worse.”
“Anna should start preparing for onesies. The babies will pop out in no time.” Stephen stopped. “On another thought, I hope you are using protection. The relationship will be hard to handle, a baby might just bring disaster.”
Cage nodded. His mom would be thrilled to meet Katherine and probably even happier if he gave her some grandkids, but damn, it was going to be a shit show if the public found out.
“Just having creepy guys stop at her house is enough of a scare, I don’t need the paparazzi involved…” He frowned.
“Someone stopped by?” Stephen demanded to know. He sounded confused and infuriated. Cage was glad to see that Stephen had so easily adopted Katherine into his life and was concerned about her. He would probably kick some ass for her if it came down to it. “She’s family now, and no one messes with us.” There was a slight menace to his voice and Cage had to smile. Yeah, she was family. He couldn’t deny it any longer.
“Just some guy called Nathanial… a bartender. He’s been persistent and can’t take no for an answer.”
“And you showed him who is boss, right?” Stephen asked.
“No. I didn’t show my face but yeah… I may have shown some possessive behavior to scare him off…” That hurt. He couldn’t even protect his girl without putting her in harm’s way.
“Good good. Don’t show your face just yet.” With that, the conversation ebbed away.
Cage pulled out his phone and started texting.
[RayKon53: Miss you.]
Yup, it had been 40 minutes and he was already texting. He couldn’t imagine what their phone bills would look like when he was shooting outside the country or promoting his movies worldwide.
His phone buzzed in his hand after a couple of minutes and he unlocked the screen immediately.
[Rinsten: I’ll drown myself in work until we meet again.]
He grinned and started typing again.
[RayKon53: I am counting down the hours until we see each other. Don’t work too hard.]
He closed his eyes and leaned against the window. Maybe he could catch up on some sleep before the meeting.
[Rinsten: Yes, countdown until seeing each other is good. But do you know what I like more? Touching and tasting you.]
He had spoken too early. Missing her didn’t stop him from being mildly aroused. Actually, it might have been worse, now that he had tasted and felt her.
He had been too stupid to put his bag in the back… not that he could have pulled out the lotion and rubbed one out. Why did that even cross his mind? Okay, maybe just smell her, but that would be even worse for his hard-on.
[RayKon53: You’re going into dangerous territory, little girl. Do you really think I won’t spank you?]
No, he wouldn’t. Probably. But teasing her shouldn’t be too bad.
[RayKon53: Also, Stephen has booked three cabins for us. We will have our own cabin and a lot of sexy time!]
“You’re sexting, aren’t you?” Stephen asked blandly. His expression must have given him away.
“Technically? No.” Not far from the truth. He was just flirting. No crime in being smooth over text. If he had actually sexted with her in the car… damn. He would die. Moreover, he didn’t think he was capable of watching porn any longer. That was just not an option for him. Lord bless his soul. One less sin to go to hell for.
[Rinsten: Mm. You can always have your way with me. Doesn’t need to be the cabin. Anytime. Anywhere.]
‘Damn it!’
