I watch as Declan rubs his chin back and forth over the light beard he grew this week, leaning against the wall, one foot over the other, deep in conversation. His blazer is off, and his sleeves are rolled up on his forearms displaying his tattoos. His muscles strain as he lifts his arm to push the hair off his face that’s fallen in front of his eyes, and I all but combust right there.

God, he’s so hot. He’s like every girl’s wet dream.

Too bad for those girls. He’s all mine.

Like he can sense me staring, his head turns in what feels like slow motion until he finds my eyes across the dance floor, and slowly his lips curve in the sexiest smirk.

We’ve been playing this game all night from across the way.

I can feel that sizzling burn we have from across the room, the way he makes me feel is like nothing I’ve ever felt before.

I wiggle my eyebrows and dance a little to entice him to come here and dance with me. He hits Wills’s arms and motions to the dance floor, and they give me the sign for ‘one minute.’

“Hello, my favorite sister.” Jackson comes out of nowhere and leans down to kiss Sadie’s belly.

“Where have you been?” she asks.

“Where do you think he’s been? I saw a bunch of his whores circling him like shark bait.” Annabelle says as she comes up from behind me.

“Don’t be jealous, B,” Jackson replies as he wraps his free arm around her, pulling her into his side.

“My best girls,” he says through a smile, then kisses both Sadie and Annabelle on the forehead.

I’m positive Annabelle has feelings for Jackson, but something tells me there is something there for him too. I wonder if Sadie sees it or if it’s just me.

“Where is your caveman fiancé? I’m surprised he isn’t attached to your hip?” Annabelle asks Sadie.

“I told him if he didn’t give me space to hang out with Fiona, he wasn’t getting sex tonight. Then I reminded him that I could go into labor at any second and he would miss his chance at sex before the five weeks recovery period.”

“Oh my god, can you not!” Jackson shivers in disgust, and the girls laugh.

“Fiona, are you having fun?” Jackson asks.

“The best time. I’ve never been a girl’s girl, but shit, I think I just became one tonight.” We all high-five, and that’s when I feel a large hand wrap around my stomach.

“What’s going on, angel?” Declan’s deep voice vibrates through my body, and I have to stop the reaction he causes. How does he affect me so easily?

“You don’t want to leave yet, do you?” he mutters into the neck as he kisses me right over my pulse. “Because I need at least one song where that sexy body is moving against mine. You’ve been taunting me all night.”

My head involuntarily leans back against his shoulder, and our bodies start to sway to the music.

“I’m wherever you want me to be, Declan.”

Always.

After a few more drinks, we are all feeling pretty good.Too good.

This lot can really get after it. I’m not built for this much drinking, and I also haven’t had this much fun in forever, either.

Declan continues to move behind me, his hands running up and down my body as his groin grinds into my arse, thrusting forward every few minutes.

Next to me, Evelyn and Marco are now dancing with Evelyn’s friends, Poppy and Olivia. Jackson was sandwiched between his sister and Belle, but Wills quickly pulled Sadie away to have one last dance before they leave.

I can’t take my eyes off them.

The way Wills and Sadie move together on the dance floor is purely perfect. They are so in sync with each other. I can see their emotion and desire for one another in every move.
