"How about we decide all this later?" Dane asked, raising to his feet. "You got a choice now, babe. We can either head to the bar or to bed. But either way, you're getting some lovin' first."
I let him pull me up, wrapping my arms around him and settling into his embrace with a sigh. Drake's arms came around us, holding us all together. It felt… beautiful. Right.
"Bar," I finally decided. "I want to show off my men."
They both chuckled.
Chapter Six
Dane
The Bronze Horseman hadn't been here when we'd left Capricorn Cove ten years ago. But then, Ella Bronze had still been in high school back then. Now, she and Anika Sharif, another blast from our past, had built what was an exceptional venue. Not too big, not too small, the place had a home but still classy feel to it. They'd added an outdoor area with a small stage for those long summer nights. We were fast approaching the end of summer, but the heat still hung in the air and the long afternoon light fell across Blue's face, lighting her in a way I'd only ever dreamed.
We'd eaten, then sat chatting and nursing a few beers while enjoying the warm evening. She'd turned to watch the band, a satisfied, happy smile on her face. Her body shifted in her seat, her shoulders swaying in time with the hot salsa number.
"You wanna dance?" Drake asked her, his eyes, like mine, dipping to the deep v of her shirt. Her gorgeous tits jiggled as she swayed.
"Love to," she beamed, immediately standing. I sighed, throwing back the last of my beer and resigning myself to looking foolish as I tried to keep up with these two.
On the dance floor, we sandwiched her between us. My hands falling on her hips, Drake's on her butt. We swayed in time to the music, pressing close, stealing kisses between laughter.
The songs flowed, one to the other and we were lost in each other. I didn't pay any mind to the looks or whispers; all my concentration was on the beautiful woman before me. Oh, and the guy dancing with her – he wasn't half bad either.
The band called for a break and Blue broke away, laughing as she called over her shoulder, "grab me a drink. I gotta pee." She disappeared into the crowd.
"Find us a table, I'll get the beers," I told Drake.
The line moved quickly, Ella working it with precision.
"Hey Dane, welcome back to town." She tilted her head, a genuine smile on her face. "Let me guess, two ciders and a coke?"
"That's it," I agreed. As she handed over the drinks, a shiny piece caught my eye.
"Wow, didn't realize you were married. Congratulations."
She laughed. "Engaged, but we're planning the wedding at the moment. Actually, you guys should meet him. I heard through the grapevine that you fired Simon."
I cocked a brow. "Your guy into boats?"
"Baby," she leaned forward, a teasing smile lighting her face. "His boats put all others to shame." She reached into her back pocket, pulling free a card to hand to me.
"You just keep a stack of these in your pocket?"
She winked as I took it, "gotta support my man." She grinned, "but seriously, give Gunnar a call. He and his brother own Thor's Shipbuilding. They've just finished setting up their second workshop down here and are ready to take on new clients."
I lifted the cardboard carton loaded with our drinks. "Cheers, I'll look him up this week."
"Have a nice night, and say hi to Blue and Drake for me." She turned away, moving to serve the next customer.
I shifted, searching for and finding Drake sitting at a long table, chatting with some guys. He'd snagged the bottom half of the table, three seats along the same side.
I placed the drinks on the table, glancing around. "You seen Blue?"
"Nope," Drake reached for his beer. "You switching?" He asked, nodding to the can of soda.
"Yeah, gotta get your sorry asses home."
He laughed, bumping me with his shoulder. "You get me some chips?"
