Dear Mr. Counsel, I Need You: OTT Enterprises, #3

By Isla Chiu

I'm in desperate need of James Butler's help. There's one issue—he's my ex. The last time I saw him, I told him, "I never want to see your crazy a** again." But he is one of the best lawyers in town, and I know he can help with my poor dad's lawsuit problem. 

 

To my surprise, when I go to James, he is willing to help me. I offer him money in exchange, but he doesn't want cash. Instead, he wants me. Specifically, he wants me in his bed...

Excerpt:

 

James stands up and grabs my arm. "Just tell me what you need. You wouldn't have come to me if you had other options."

 

The jerk is right. "My dad's getting sued," I say. "As you know, we don't have much money. I contacted you because I hoped you would be his lawyer. Obviously, we can't afford to pay you at your regular rates, but we can give you some money and we'll throw in free dry cleaning for the rest of your life. If you want me to go on my knees and beg, I'll do it and whatever else you want me to do."

 

To my relief, he doesn't laugh in my face and say, "Absolutely not. Get the hell out of my office." His green eyes look into mine. "You'll do whatever I want you to do?"

 

I nod. "Anything."

 

"Tell you what," he says. "I'll help your dad for free."

 

I exhale. "Thank you. But let us give you some money—"

 

"I make six figures a year. I don't need your money."

 

"What do you want then?" A heavy ball of dread forms in my stomach. Is he going to make me do something humiliating like clean his apartment in a skimpy French maid costume? My ex wouldn't be above that.

 

He draws me to him till our bodies are a mere inch away from touching. "I want you in my bed."

 

I narrow my eyes. "Jesus, you're a slime-ball."

 

"Well, I am a corporate lawyer."

When I manage to tear myself away from taking Buzzfeed quizzes and watching unhealthy amounts of TV, I write romance and smut. My works feature alpha males, sexy times, and/or my sarcastic sense of humor. I hail from Cleveland, aka the best freaking city in the world, and believe LeBron James is the perfect human being. Despite all of my efforts, I have never truly been able to quit caffeine. My favorites include Taylor Swift, Florence + the Machine, and SHINee. I love to hate/hate to love k-dramas. If I say I’m on a diet, I’m just lying to you and myself. One of these days, I'm going to get hypertension from an excess of salt, both literal and figurative. If I'm awkward around you, I probably don't know what to say to you and/or I think you're hot. And despite what anyone says, Forrest Gump so deserved that Oscar over Pulp Fiction.

My Ex's Less Than Proper Proposal

Itwist my hands as I sit outside James Butler's office. James Butler—aka my ex.  The last time I saw him, I told him, I never want to see your crazy ass again. But now I'm in desperate need of his help. Considering our less than amicable breakup, I was surprised when he responded to my email. And I was especially surprised when his response didn't contain a Screw you or How about you go to hell? His reply did contain some salt, though. A few phrases like "I thought you never wanted to see my crazy ass again and Of course, you would only contact me when you need something." But he agreed to meet me, which is all that matters.

His secretary Sharon grins at me. Are you and James getting back together? she asks.

I like Sharon. She’s a sweet woman who regularly does things like randomly make pumpkin bread and feed it to everyone she encounters. But she was also convinced that James and I were going to get married; she almost took our breakup harder than James did.

Um, no, I say awkwardly. I’m asking him for some legal help.

Her eyes grow big. Oh no, are you in trouble, honey?

Not me, I say. My dad is. He’s getting sued.

Sharon gasps. Oh no! What happened?

With a sigh, I tell her. Dad owns a dry cleaner, and he’s always been good at his job and had no complaints, except
