"I’m his first. Monday," she said, a hint of twisted pride in her voice. "I've been with him the longest."

"And the girl downstairs?" My temples were throbbing painfully now.

"Her? She’s Thursday," Melanie said, her voice dripping with disdain. "Honestly, I don't know why she acts so smug. There is so much she doesn't know about him."

"She thinks Ryan only has me and you," Melanie scoffed, leaning back on her sofa. "But she’s wrong."

"And you're just okay with this? You won't let him go even though he's sleeping around?" I asked, genuinely shocked.

"He's the hottest guy I've ever been with, and his game in bed is unmatched. I'm not giving that up," she said, completely unabashed.

I stared at her. She wasn't wrong. Ryan was drop-dead gorgeous, especially his bedroom eyes. Every time we slept together, I got completely lost in his gaze.

My phone vibrated.

"Hey, babe. Why aren't you home yet?" Ryan's voice was as smooth and charming as ever.
