Another excerpt from "The Eyes of Alexander"...
"“That’s for you,” he
said, nodding towards the bag.
I picked it up and
peeked inside. It was my prescription! I flushed
crimson.
“Now before you get
mad at me, remember that I did this for both of us,” Xander explained in an
attempt to obviate my wrath. “The sooner
you get started on those, the sooner we can stop using those damn condoms.”
Had the man no shame? I mean, Lucas and
Bennett could probably hear him.
Clearly, he didn't feel the need to be discreet about our sex life. Well, two can play at that game.
“Lucas, thanks so much
for getting my birth control pills!” I called out boldly, enjoying the shocked
stares from all three men. Well, I
couldn’t see Lucas’ face, but I saw the backs of his ears redden and Bennett briefly
turn to gape at me. I smugly turned to
see Xander’s shocked face.
“You don’t need to
respond to my audacious girlfriend, Lucas,” Xander called out and then turned
to me. “As ever, Miss Windsor, you never
cease to surprise me.” He kissed my cheek
proudly.
I was proud of myself,
too. My victory swallowed up my
embarrassment and I did a pom-poms cheer in my head. You go
girl!"
