She shrugs one of her delicate shoulders.
I press my lips together. That necklace isn’t a cheap trinket someone could just give away on a whim. “We’ll see what we can find out.”
“I’ll let you know if I see him.” She rests against me. I wish she was my date tonight instead of Nancy, but Drew won’t let her out of his sight. I doubt any of us will with her looking like this.
She pulls away and slips on her shoes, bringing her up a few inches.
Her eyes sparkle when she lifts them to mine. “Will you be dragging me out of this fundraiser?”
“Maybe, pip.” I straighten one of her curls. It wouldn’t be like the other times I dragged her out and dropped her at home.
She steps into me. “You know, there’s only one way to wear silk without getting lines.”
She brushes her hand against the front of my pants, making my cock jerk before she walks around me to the door.
“How’s that?” I glance over my shoulder at her.
She smirks. “Don’t wear anything under it.”
Her laughter fills the room as she opens the door and walks into the living room. Peabody yips excitedly but I stay where I am, trying to control the urge to lock her in this room and fuck her until the only name coming from her mouth is mine.
She’d be safe in my arms. But that’s not how tonight will go. She wants to find out why Tom set up Wyatt with Verity. I need to show Nancy a nice time. And we all need to network.
I don’t know who bought Sara diamonds today. Maybe they’ll show. But she’s not leaving my sight.
Sara
The dress. The diamonds. Even the heels. All feel deliciously sinful against my skin. My heartbeat throbs as I wait for Dante to come out. There’s something about him in a tuxedo that makes me want to mess him up.
Tug his hair free. Loosen his tie. Unravel the stone-cold Viking he presents to the world. The one that makes me burn for him.
Peabody dances around my feet.
“I’m excited too, little dude. Don’t worry. Tanya will be here later to take you for a walk.”
He runs to the door and barks. I just shake my head. Tanya has been his dog walker for years. With everything going on, I’m glad we have someone we can trust with him.
Finn walks out of his room with his head down, fastening his cuff links. “On my way down to bring up your date, flower.”
He lifts his gaze and freezes. “Fuck me.”
“Always.” I blow him a kiss as his eyes eats me up, heating my blood.
“Drew can go fuck himself tonight. I’ll be your date, flower.” Finn strolls over to me and lifts the diamond strand between my breasts. When my gaze meets his, he smiles. “I’ll ditch Olivia. You and I will sneak off to fuck somewhere.”
Heat flares inside me. “Not in this dress we won’t.”
He backs me into the wall and leans down to kiss my neck. I draw in a breath, already dizzy with desire. “We can come in each other’s mouths, flower. No muss, no fuss.”
I shiver as he drops kisses against my throat. Movement captures my attention and Dante settles opposite us, propping his hip against the back of the couch. His icy eyes are dark, looking content to watch.
“Weren’t you going to get Drew?” I ask, huskily.
“Drew who?” Finn sucks on my skin.
Dante puts his hand on Finn’s shoulder. “Come on or we’ll never get out of here.”
Finn grins. He takes in every inch of me, making my skin prickle with anticipation. “I don’t see a problem with that.”
