I let out a breath I didn’t t realize I’d been holding. “The acquisition’s a mess. The board promised it would be a smooth transition, but I’m still fighting tooth and nail to keep my vision intact. Honestly? I’m starting to wonder if it’s even worth it.”

“They can’t push you out, can they?” Astrid scoots closer to me and leans her head on my shoulder.

“Feels like they’re trying.” I hear the bitterness and frustration in my tone. “It’s all politics and power plays. They’re interested in chasing quick profits not doing anything that actually matters. It’s exhausting.”

She’s silent for a moment, gazing up at me thoughtfully. It makes me feel understood. She always sees through my words to what’s in my heart. Her thumb traces a small circle on my arm. “Sounds brutal. No wonder you’re burnt out and confused. You need a mental break.”

“Yeah,” I admit. “Probably.”

Her hand glides up and down my thigh. “Don’t worry. You’ll figure it out,” she says softly. “You always do.”

“Thanks. I needed to hear something positive.” I take my eyes off the road for a sec to kiss the side of her head, grateful my tension is easing.

Astrid’s palm creeps up my thigh and cups my half-erect cock. “You’ve worked too hard for it to end like this.”

“Yeah...” I suck in a breath when she unzips my pants. “What are you doing?”

“If you don’t know, I’m not doing it correctly.” Before I can protest she’s pulled out my dick and brushes her thumb over the tip.

I swerve onto the shoulder and screech to a stop. “I’m gonna wreck the car if you blow me when I’m driving.”

“Well, I’m going down on you now, B, so it’s good you pulled over.” She makes short work of my buckle, unzips my pants and grasps my cock in her fist. “You need to come in the worst way.”

“What did you say?” I cannot believe this is happening. I’ve never had such a spontaneous sexual experience in my life. I’m not sure what to do.

Astrid leans over and pushes my briefs down. Locks her gaze with mine as she licks and sucks my balls. I nearly jackknife my hips into her jaw, but manage to hold myself back. Watch as her tongue trails up my shaft to my crown where she engulfs my cock with her hot little mouth. “Mmmmmm.”

“Fucking hell, A.” I stare down at her working me over. Stroke her hair as she licks and sucks me into oblivion and lightly grazes her teeth along my pulsing vein. Her hand pumps me harder and faster until my breath is choppy and erratic. I’m gyrating and groaning, so close. So incredible. I feel so free. Astrid cups and massages my balls, which immediately tighten.

“I’m going to blow.” I tap her shoulder, but she doesn’t stop.

Her hand works faster. She sucks harder and it’s all over. I explode on her tongue and she drinks down every drop, licking me clean. Gently caressing me until I’m soft and satiated.

She sits up, wipes her mouth with the back of her hand and nonchalantly reapplies her lipstick, giving me a sideways grin.

“For someone who doesn’t like to suck cock, you’re very talented.” I tuck myself back into my pants and buckle my belt.

She lifts my arm and places it around her shoulder, leaning against me. Blinks up at me with those green eyes. “Correction. I like suckingyourcock. Now you can focus on the drive and we can start our vacation. No work, no stress. Just Palm Springs, this car, tasty food, and lots of naked sexy times.”

“Deal.” I pull back out onto the road.

An hour later, the city comes into view. It’s like a different world here, one filled with sleek, mid-century modern architecture, palm trees swaying in the warm desert breeze, and a peaceful, festive atmosphere.

I’ve been running myself into the ground. Isolating myself from my family and the woman I see a future with.

And for what?

Somehow, I think this week is going to change everything.

A Few Minutes Later

Oh,boy.I’mworriedabout him.

Brennan reminds me of a mad scientist wholly out of his element. The man is richer and more influential than his rockstar brother by a mile, but he doesn’t act like it. Or live like it.
