“I don’t know how I didn’t fuck her last night.”
“I appreciate that.” Sawyer looked over his shoulder.
“I know how much you want her virgin ass. I didn’t think it was right to take her pussy first.”
“Much obliged.” He stirred the omelet into a flip. It looked perfect golden brown.
“What’s your plan here?” Jack asked.
“What do you mean? I’m cooking breakfast for the three of us.”
“I see that. I’m not talking about the damn breakfast. I’m talking about her. About the debt with Gino.”
“I’m not going to renegotiate the terms. She works for us for a year. That was the agreement.”
Jack took a sip of coffee. “You don’t think that’s going to be complicated?”
“I don’t see the problem.”
“The problem is the girl we’re fucking is now an employee. We’ve steered clear from that for a long time. Let her out of the deal.”
“Think about it this way.” Sawyer placed the first omelet on a pan and placed it in the warming oven while he made the second. “If she’s at the office we have more time with her. We have the lounges between our offices. She’ll understand our world. She’ll be involved in Kincaid-Rivers. She will know us better than any woman before.”
Jack clutched the coffee mug. “When you say it that way it sounds like a perfect plan, but that dick in HR has been on our asses for years for hiring pretty girls.”
Sawyer waved the spatula in the air. “I don’t give a shit about him. I want Lily at the office. She’s smart. She’s done more for us in the past three weeks than Jill did in six months. Her brain is out of this world. She is the total package, bro. Listen to me on this one.”
He lifted the mug. “I don’t disagree. I’m only worried about her. She shouldn’t feel like a commodity, and this deal makes her that.”
“I’ll talk to her,” Sawyer offered. “Will that make you feel better?”
“Yeah. You can gladly have that conversation. That’s your job anyway.”
“Job?” Sawyer raised his eyebrows.
“You know. You’re the serious one. I’m the light-hearted fun one.”
“Bastard, I can be fun.”
Jack laughed. “I’m fucking with you.”
“Why don’t you get down here and cut up some fruit? Lily will be up soon.”
“Fine.” He hopped from the counter.
“What should we do when she wakes up?”
“I thought about taking her to the vineyard early before the wedding. If you’re up for it.”
Jack nodded. “I think it’s a great spot for us to spend the weekend. I’ll pack after breakfast.”
“Are the tuxes are there?”
“Oh yeah. All we have to do is show up at the church and get dressed. Maybe have a few drinks with the guys.”
“Maybe we should take Lily to the wedding.”
“All right. I’ll have Penny send over a dress,” Jack offered.
