Fuck.She just couldn’t get a break. I glared over at the man who was eyeing us near the snack table.Fucking dick.

“But, hey, at least, I’ve still got a date, right? Feel like helping me piss my dad off more?” Emma looked up at Nic. “Maybe a dance?”

He gave her a small smile. “It would be my pleasure.”

Chapter 22

JET

I had to tighten my grip as I spun Annie to keep her from losing balance, and I grinned when I pulled her back against me, choosing to ignore the look she shot me by spinning her a second time.

“Jet Thanos, stop it!” she hissed as she tripped over herself, even though my arm held her secure. “You’re going to make me fall.”

“Never,” I promised. “But no one here would be surprised.” I winked and started to spin her again but opted not to when she shot me her dirtiest look yet, though I couldn’t hold back my chuckle. Teasing her tonight was so much fun. Another song passed when I got the urge to try it again, and Annie smacked her hand against my chest.

“I’m in a dress, Jet.”

“You don’t have to remind me.” I raked my eyes down her body, my blood racing to see that material slink over her curves. I caught a glimpse of her thigh through the slit and spun her around to pull her back to my chest, sliding my hand down to her leg to touch her bare skin. “You’re driving me crazy,” I growled in her ear, and she shivered.

“You like it?” she whispered, her voice turning breathy.

“Does it feel like I like it?” I gently pressed my hips to her ass, letting her feel my hard as steel cock.

Her breath hitched, and she tilted her head back slightly when she replied. “I’m glad he’s here, but it’s still nice to hear you say it.”

I slid my hand along the silky material at her waist, and she turned in my arms, my hand now splayed across the crisscrossed strings that tied over the open back of her dress. “Then, I love it. You’re so damn hot tonight that you’re lucky I haven’t pulled you outside just to put my hands all over you.”

“Mmmm, can it be your mouth, too?” Annie bit her lip, her brow bouncing once in invitation, teasing, and my cock twitched in my slacks.

I was half a second away from yanking her outside to the limo when a voice called out, “Hey, guys! Look who’s too hot for a tux.”

I looked over to find Megan walking past with David. He jerked his head in a nod while Megan waved at us with the hand not held in his.

Annie waved back. “Having fun, prom queen?”

“Of course. You?” Megan pulled David to a stop, and he and I exchanged a look, wondering how long we’d be stuck in girl talk.

“It’s been fun so far.Mostof the time.” Annie shifted her eyes to me, and when Megan gave her a funny look, I had to chuckle.

“She’s worried about tripping.”

“I’m worried about youmakingme trip.” Annie grinned, bumping her hip near my groin, and my jaw clenched, my dick fully aware it was being denied.

Megan exchanged a glance with David. “Okay… Oh, hey, we saw Mateo earlier. Is he okay?”

“Why?” Annie frowned, knowing neither of us had seen him since he’d stormed off.

“He came up insisting he needed to talk to David earlier and got really mad when he told him he’d have to wait. I think I saw him go outside after that. It was really weird.”

“Which reminds me. I need to go find him.” David let go of her hand.

“Now?”

“Yeah.”

“Why?”

“Guy stuff, Megan. Don’t worry about it. I’ll meet you at our table when I’m done.” He took off, ignoring her confusion, and Megan took a deep breath before releasing it.
