Torn Between The Carter Brothers

The first place on my list of wooing Addison today was a museum, so I’d shower her with compliments while we check out ancient artworks. Right after we pulled up there and got out of the car, Aisha was at my side in the next second, pressing up against me as she blinked up at me. I felt my eyes twitch a little, and I wondered how she could be this shameless.

“My corset buttons came off, help me fix it?” She asked, still pressed up against me. Again, I was tempted to fully shoot this down, but I reminded myself that I might really need her help at a point, so to me, it’s undoubtedly a good thing that she’s clearly so attracted to me. I mean, to get a hand on Marco’s phone in order to get any solid dirt, I might have to employ her help.

“Of course, why not?”

As I did her corset buttons up, she began to talk my ears off almost immediately. However, I was barely listening to what she was saying, because from the side of my eyes, I caught sight of Marco whispering something to Addison while she blushed and laughed.

I felt irritation shrug through me.

Fucking Marco.

I couldn’t afford for him to connect with Addison today at all, else he’d ruin the little progress I’ve

made with Addison, and I couldn’t have that just yet.

“Do you like the color of my top? I heard green is your favorite color, so I thought to wear this today.” Aisha was saying and I forced myself to focus on her again, then I stifled a sigh.

This is such a hassle cause I’m not into her one bit.

It hit me just now, that seducing Addison and doing all what I’ve been doing with her since I arrived, hadn’t caused me a lot of hassle because I’m actually attracted to her. After all, I had thought it was gonna be a lot of work to get turned on in order to fuck her, but alas, I had been met with the complete.

Deciding not to dwell on that right now, I shoved that thought to the back of my mind and focused on Aisha, “Is that so? I’m very much flattered.” I sighed out and she grinned, clearly pleased, but I was rolling my eyes on the inside cause green wasn’t even my favorite color, it was grey.

“I’ll be right back,” I tell her before striding to where Marco and Addison were speaking at the back of the car, and I placed my hand around Addison’s waist once I was beside her.

Marco bristled as he glared at me. “I don’t understand, can’t I speak to my friend privately without you

intruding?”

I scoffed before responding. “Well, you can’t, cause should your fiancee come over and accuse her of seducing you, you’ll remain mute.” I snapped and he bristled again, his face red with anger.

“You’re controlling and imposing, cause Addison and I are cool, and I already apologized about that!” He gritted out and I felt surprised.

Marco apologizing? He must really really love Addison and couldn’t stand the thought of completely losing her at all.
