else,” I said. “So do me a favor- either stop with the accusations, or do something more useful with that mouth.”
    She licked her lips and slid down to her knees. “Something more useful?” she whispered, unzipping my pants.
    I sucked in my breath as she pulled out my cock and slid it between her lips.
    “Is this what you meant?” she asked, licking the tip.
    I groaned. “That’ll work.”

    “Sela is certainly lovely,” said Mimi, placing a napkin on her lap. “I can understand why Reed is so smitten with her.”
    “So, she’s not pregnant?” asked Jesse.
    “Jesse…” she warned, with a withering stare.
    “What? It’s a sincere question,” he replied.
    Mimi didn’t respond, instead, she bit into her salad and glanced towards Jack, who was furiously texting, on his cell phone.
    “Well, if she is, we’ll know soon enough,” replied Jack , looking up. “Anyway, Reed is twenty-seven. He’s definitely old enough to settle down.”
    “I wond er how long they’ve been dating,” said Jesse. “If she’s some big-time model, I would have thought I’d have read something about them in the tabloids.”
    “R eed detests the paparazzi,” sniffed Mimi, “especially after dating that actress a few years back, the one who tried using him to get in with your father. After he dumped her, she made all of those vile accusations about him and made Reed look like some kind of arrogant baboon.”
    “What kind of accusations?” I asked.
    Mimi waved her hand. “Oh, that he had a horrible temper, drank too much, and was a womanizer.”
    “And those weren’t true ?” snorted Jesse.
    “Hardly. Your brother does not have a drinking problem,” said Mimi. “It’s absurd.”
    “But the rest is true? ” I asked, biting back a smile.
    “Well, I’m sure that creature brought out the worst in him,” replied Mimi. “She was a dreadful girl. Don’t you agree, Jack?”
    He looked up. “Despicable. But, unfortunately, she got what she wanted. Notoriety. She was even cast in a couple of movies, soon after.”
    “Seriously?” I asked.
    Jack shrugged. “Yeah, but they were ‘B’ movies.”
    I worked on my salad and was almost finished when Reed and Sela stepped into the dining room. As they moved closer, I stared at her and sighed; she was everything I wasn’t- tall, rail-thin, with light blonde hair, high cheekbones, and perfect, little bow-shaped lips.
    Reed introduced her to al l of us and then they sat down across from me and Jesse.
    “I’m sorry I’m late,” she said, with a slight French accent.
    “Oh, it’s quite alright,” gushed Mimi, staring at her future daughter-in-law with appraisal. “You have a busy schedule. I’m just happy you were able to make it.”
    “Yes, it is … upsetting, having to travel so much,” said Sela. “I never get any rest.”
    “Or time to eat?” joked Jesse, under his breath.
    I kicked the outside of his foot.
    “You should really take some time off,” said Reed, pouring Sela a glass of wine.
    Sela’s eyes narrowed. “As I’ve mentioned before, Reed , I cannot simply do that. You know that I’ve already committed myself for the fashion shows in Paris. Maybe you should take some time off to be with me.”
    “I can’t take time away from my cases, unfortunately,” he replied. “People’s lives are depending on me.”
    “People’s lives depend on me too, Reed,” she answered, tightly.
    “ Well, we are delighted that you could make it here, this weekend,” interrupted Mimi, obviously sensing the tension. “Right Jack?”
    Jack, who was smiling down at his phone, looked up. “Right, Mimi.”
    “For Heaven’s sake, would it hurt you to put that thing away for a little while?” she chastised. “I’m pretty sure the studio will live without your attention for the next hour.”
    Jack chuckled a nd stood up. “You’d think, wouldn’t you? Please excuse me, everyone. I need to make a quick
