My mouth nearly dropped open. “Excuse me?”

“Well, you’re a beautiful woman, Willa. It’s been almost a year since you had Ben, and I’m sure now that we’re divorced you’ll be itching to get back out there.”

“Itching to get back out there?” I repeated, my voice filled with fury.

“Listen, I’ll always care about you, Willa. It’s just, I needed someone in my life who wanted the things I did. Who wanted me. Let’s call this for what it is, your heart was never mine.”

I sighed. “Brian, I’m not sure why you feel like you have to have this conversation with me. You made it clear the day I walked in on you fucking my best friend why you cheated. You needed someone who wanted the things you wanted in bed. Someone who didn’t want such a…what was the word you used? Vanilla? A vanilla sex life.”

He had the decency to look embarrassed.

“I don’t need to hear again how I didn’t keep you happy in the bedroom and how I never gave you my heart. We both knew this marriage wasn’t going to last. Come on, the only reason you asked me to marry you was because I got pregnant. From this point on, all I ask is that you don’t let your son down. He may not understand it now when you don’t show up for visits, but as he gets older, so help me God…if you hurt him, Brian…”

Brian laughed. “Are you threatening me now?”

I folded my arms over my chest. “I’m stating a fact. There isn’t anything I won’t do to protect my son.”

He narrowed his eyes and took a step closer. “Our son.”

I let out a humorless laugh. “The same son you’ve seen maybe five times since he was born.”

His smile vanished completely, and then he took a step back. “Well, your friend Aiden should be happy to know you’re free and single now. If he has the balls to come and finally make you his. Too bad I figured out a way to beat him to it by getting you knocked up, and even got my ring on your finger. At least I know he’ll be getting my sloppy seconds.”

I slapped him across the face. “I hate you,” I said, clenching my hands into fists.

“I think chat time is over,” Bree said, her hand on Brian’s chest as she gave him a push back.

“Keep in mind what I said about where your focus should be, Willa.”

My entire body trembled as I lunged for Brian.

“Okay, down girl,” Bree said. She took my arm, and we started to walk toward her BMW.

“He had the nerve to tell me I needed to focus on Ben and not my sex life! Who in the hell does he think he is?!” I shouted as I slammed the car door shut.

“Hey, take care of my baby! She didn’t cheat on you and accuse you of being a whore.” Bree rubbed the dashboard of her Beamer.

“I hate him. I hate all men. I never want to see a penis again,” I said. “Now I know for a fact that he got me pregnant on purpose. Stupid! Stupid! I’m so freaking stupid.”

Bree choked on air for a few moments before she got control of herself. “Okay, whoa. First off, I think you’ve always known the little shit got you preggers on purpose. The whole stunt where he asked you in front of your family made that clear. So let’s hit the brakes on giving up on all men. That’s a pretty big statement to make, especially since I’ve arranged a celebratory night out.”

I stared at her as she started driving. “What do you mean, a celebratory night out?”

She shrugged, then turned and flashed me a smile. Her long, light brown hair whipped in the air when she hit a button and the roof of the BMW opened. Of course, Brighton’s hair looked stunning as the wind tossed it about. Mine, on the other hand, kept hitting me so hard I swore I’d have whiplash marks across my entire face when this ride was over.

I blew out a breath and pushed the hair away before I reached into my purse and pulled out a ponytail holder to put up my blonde hair. “I’m not going out tonight.”

“Yes, you are. You haven’t been out in…how many years?”

I stared straight ahead. “Probably since before I married ass hat.”

“Exactly! I already talked to Lacy, and she said Ben can spend the night there. Hunter is in, and he said he’s bringing some friends of his.”

“Oh no!” I moaned. “That means Bishop will be there.”

Bree laughed. “Yes, it does! You think he still has the hots for you?”

I turned to look at her. “Do you even have to ask that question? Why don’t you hook up with him? He’s cute.”

She smiled but kept her eyes on the road. “I plan on going home with Hunter tonight.”
