Page 51 of Unstoppable Billionaire

"Darn it!Look at her.She's already won."

"Well?"The girl directly in front asks."Have you?"

"Have I what?"

"Have you won?"

"Won what?If you want to know if I've touched Mr.Untouchable, the answer is yes."

She turns around and announces loudly."Spread the word, y'all.Aurei is off the market."

"Gawd-dammit!I need a drink after hearing that."

"I tell you what.I'll buy you all drinks."I turn back to the bar, and magically the crowd parts for me.

Free drinks always make everyone happy.

When I tell Don, he grins."You got it!"

"Thanks.You're all right."Several girls tell me as I pass them.

The path through the crew is clear, and I maneuver through the tables back to the dance floor.Then I dance my way back through the dancers.When I get close, I can see our table between couples gyrating to Lady Gaga's "Edge Of Glory," and what I see makes me angry.Stopping shy of coming in full view, I watch through the green eyes of jealousy.The bitch, Ruth, is sitting on the table right in front of Aurei.I can see she is talking, and her body language says it's seductive by the way she swings her hair.She's flirting, but I'm too far away to read her lips.He must be saying something back to her because she wags her finger at him then points to herself.

If she touches him, I'm going to open a big can of whoop-ass on her, and she'll find out what the name ruthless bitch really means.

She continues to talk, and he listens.Occasionally, I see his head move or shake.

They are having a conversation.The table is cleared, so Gaby has been back.Both Steve and Paul have returned.Their faces look uncomfortable that Ruth is there, and she has the same crew of girls hanging out on the dance floor.

I remember her words from the line tonight.'Or maybe more, like old times.'

I stiffen.They could have had a thing together.Shit!

I feel my heart fall to my gut.Is she one of his secrets?She obviously still has feelings for him.'Like old times.'

A vision of Aurei fucking her comes into focus, and I suddenly feel sick to my stomach.Then I remember what he told me.He hasn't fucked anyone here in years.Then, that means when he fucked her, he was young.A vision of a young 16-year-old Aurei with raging hormones comes into view.My stomach pain eases.

Well, you had your shot, Ruthless, and you lost him.If you are waiting on him to return, you'll die a bitter old maid.He's my man now.

I take a step toward the table to defend him when I see her place her foot over his legs.She starts to scoot her butt off the table to straddle him when a couple pauses in front of me, dancing and grinding.A vision of her straddling his lap flashes across my mind, and a red rage burns in my eyes.The grinding couple moves, and I see Aurei sitting straight in the chair with his arm out, blocking her.She laughs at him as she tries to swat his hand away and sit in his lap.He stands up abruptly, pushing the chair back hard.So do Steve and Paul.

What the fuck is happening?

She reaches out to touch him again.Steve and Paul both take a step around the table.Aurei snatches the chair out of the way, out of her reach.

Fuck!He's angry.

I shudder, knowing this could get really bad, really quick, but he backs away from her.Steve and Paul stop, watching him retreat.He spins around and walks straight at me.

Fuck!He is looking for me!I twirl around and dance my retreat to the edge of the dance floor by the bar.I don't want him to know I saw that.

I spot him weaving in and out of the dancers."The Edge of Glory" ends, and the gyrating stops, making it easier for Aurei to maneuver to me.

He is frowning.

As soon as he sees me, I give him a big smile, roll my eyes and blow a pretend strand of hair out of my face.He visibly relaxes and laughs at my dramatics.All jealously and rage leave me.I can see from his smiling face that he is mine.No need to worry about the bitch leftovers.They are left and over.We have Forever.

When he arrives, I tell him."Aurelius, you're my hero!Here."
