Her fridge was just as pitiful as she was. “Don’t take your anger out on the refrigerator.” Melanie swung around to see Mason standing in the kitchen archway, zipping his pants up.

Did they even sale vodka by the gallon? “What’s wrong? Do you think I’m going to rat you out now that I’ve f*cked your mouth?” “Must you be so crude?” Melanie leaned against the refrigerator. Why did he have to talk so dirty? “Crude? If you think that’s crude, you’re going to faint when you hear of all the nasty things I want to do to that sweet little body of yours.” Melanie stared down at the floor. “How long do I have to do this for you?” “We’ll talk about that later.” Mason walked in her direction.

Nothing else matters, understood?” No. Still, she nodded.
