The Lunchtime Chonicles: Merlot

Amber Everly

Mateo Lennox is the lead vocalist and one half of the world's most beloved twin duo 2L, a band that has made waves globally. You can not consume social media without seeing he and his brother's face in an ad or hearing about how riveting his deep husky voice is or how beautiful the strum of his brother's guitar is. They say their music can make any woman fall in love and lose herself. Women fling themselves at their feet and faint from a simple glance, but screw that! Mateo Lennox especially can go to hell, and I'd be happy to never lay eyes on him again.

But one can only be so lucky! I never thought I'd see that devilish man singing at our best friend's wedding. Let alone wind up in his bed again after sipping a few bottles of Merlot. For one night, I let go and allow those sexy lips to serenade me as they did in the past, but now he's claiming I'm his once more. Uhm, hello! Has he never heard of a one-night stand? I'll never give that devil my heart again. Never!

Amber Everly is sweet, sassy, tall, leggy, and nasty... erm, I mean, classy. She's every man's dream girl... no, she's MY dream girl. But fifteen years ago, I had an opportunity I couldn't pass up yet... I wish I had.

When my childhood friend asks my brother and me to play at his wedding, I almost decline. I'm a busy man, but I hop on the first thing smoking when he tells me she will be there. I luck out, and now it's me, her, and a bottle of alcohol in a room. She said she's giving me one night, but this little minx is mistaken. I let her get away once, but I'll be taking back what's mine before I leave Brazil if it's the last thing I do.
