I wrap my fingers around Connor’s wrist and stand on my toes to yell over the music that we’re going to the ladies room. He nods and gives me a kiss.

Ivy wraps her hand around mine and drags me through the crowd, zigging and zagging trying to lose security. We somehow manage to succeed and start dancing together, ignoring everyone around us and dancing against each other. I figure we have a solid ten minutes before Connor hunts us down.

We draw the attention of two guys who start moving in our direction. I lean over and yell into Ivy’s ear, “you want to lose them before they even get here or do you want to dance with them?”

She takes a long look at them and shrugs. “I wouldn’t mind dancing with them if you don’t? It’s not like anything is going to happen to us when we have the guys and a security team breathing down our necks.”

“Fine with me.” We both turn and give them smiles. It’s too loud to talk but they have no problems with putting their hands all over us. Ivy seems to be enjoying herself as she grinds against the guy she’s dancing with but I keep pushing my guy’s hands off my hips.

All of a sudden a large shadow falls over us and I smile, knowing Z is here to rescue me. He pulls me away and stares the guy down. I know that Z is a gentle giant and the guy has way more to fear from my possessive boyfriend but Z looks scary, all big and tatted up. Then I feel Connor beside me. He walks up to the guy and says something in his ear and before he even finishes speaking the guy’s eyes widen and he grabs his friend and runs away.

Then Connor turns to me and he is pissed. His cold, angry gaze pins me in place.

“This is not the ladies room, Lilith. Did you get lost?”

“Nope. Ivy wanted space from Lev.” I shrug casually. “We wanted to dance.”

“There’s an entire section you can dance in without random guys touching you right over there.” He points behind us. “The only hands that touch you are mine.” He pulls me against him and I fight the urge to rub against him like a cat.

“So possessive,” I say into his ear and then nip his earlobe between my teeth.

His fingers grip my ass and I feel a deep rumble in his chest letting me know his inner caveman is close to the surface. I look behind me and see Z and Ivy dancing so I leave them together and let Connor lead me back to the VIP area.

We spend the rest of the night dancing and drinking. At some point Grant came out with a small birthday cake topped by a sparkler. The DJ played Bad Guy by Billie Eilish in my honor at Lev’s request. Griff and Connor were the only sober ones by the end of the night.

Lilith

Goosebumps travel down my body at the feel of the cool glass of the penthouse windows against my heated skin. I’ve been standing and looking out in Connor’s room for the past few minutes while he gets ready for bed. My heels are tossed haphazardly in the closet but I’m still in my dress. Normally the height would bother me but I’m still tipsy enough not to care.

“Getting kind of brave, aren’t you Lily?” Connor says as he walks up behind me.

“Guess the champagne does that to me.” I lean back against him.

“You don’t need champagne to be brave.” He kisses my neck. “Did you have fun tonight?”

“Yeah, I did. I never really thought of myself as a club person but it was fun.” I watch a woman shut off her lights in her apartment across the street and it makes me wonder, “can people see into your penthouse?”

“No. There’s a special coating on the glass that keeps people from seeing in. Why?” His hands glide up my sides and fondles the parts of my breasts that are exposed by the low sides of the dress.

I reach up and grab the back of his head to pull him down for a messy but sexy kiss. His hands slip inside my dress and he starts tugging and rolling my nipples between his fingers. I arch back and rub my ass into his groin, loving the feel of his growing cock rubbing against me.

“Fuck me against the window.” I command against his lips.

He drops to his knees behind me and nudges my legs apart. Then he starts feathering light kisses up the back of my legs, behind my knees, and licks along my inner thighs. His hands lift my skirt over my hips and then tugs my panties down. He drags a finger along my already dripping slit before sliding it between my pussy lips. He pumps his finger in and out a few times before swirling my wetness around my clit. I whimper as he takes his time, fucking me slowly with his fingers.

My legs almost give out when I feel his tongue glide across me.

“Fuck, Lily. You taste perfect. I could stay here for the rest of my life.” His urgency builds and I tip my hips to give him deeper access. My body builds toward climax but he stops again. After he presses a chaste kiss to both of my ass cheeks he stands and pulls my dress over my head. I hear his shorts drop behind me.

When I look at our election in the window he meets my eyes.

“Do you take your birth control regularly?” He asks.

“Yes, why?”

“I want to fuck you bare. No barriers between us. I want to wake up tomorrow knowing I filled you with my cum. I’m clean, I’ve never fucked bareback before.” He says all that never losing eye contact in the window.
