“The hot bartender wasn’t interested after all?”

I pin him with a withering look then down a gulp of orange juice.

“Let’s just say I hope there aren’t cameras in the elevator.”

Rhys shoots me a shit-eatin’ grin and says, “You’re welcome.”

“What the hell are you grinning at, ass-face?” Liam asks as he flops down in the chair across from me. Ah, hell. Layla is going to be so pissed. He looks like literal dog shit. Maybe worse.

“Did you not sleep at all last night?” I ask him. “Layla is going to have your ass; you know that, right?”

He reaches across the table and takes my orange juice and downs it. “Nah.” He waves me off before helping himself to one of my pancakes as well.

“You really think I’m your babysitter, don’t you?” I chide, shaking my head.

Since this dick has helped himself to my brunch, I get up and get a cup of coffee and a bowl of strawberries before returning to the table. Just another way to torture myself with the memory of a woman I’ll never see again.

It isn’t long before all the groomsmen have made their way to our table, and every one of them are eating a shit-ton of carbs in hopes of absorbing the copious amounts of whiskey they consumed last night. Too bad carbs can’t help my Emersyn hangover.

The groom is starting to look a lot better–thank you water, coffee, and carbohydrates.

“How’s your head?” Rhys asks him.

“I’m fine.” He smiles as he boasts, “Fellas, I’m getting fuckin’ married today.”

“Yes you are, you lucky bastard.”

Liam’s face-splitting grin quickly dissolves as his eyes zone in on something over my shoulder. His face morphs from happiness to hatred in two seconds flat.

“Ah hell,” Rhys mutters to my left.

“My fucking headache is back,” Liam groans.

And just as I’m about to ask what happened, confusion written all over my face, I smell her before I see her, the scent of her perfume immediately turning my stomach sour and causing me to lose my appetite. Her red fingernails grip my shoulder, and I can’t hide the change in my mood as I look up and meet her gaze.

“Fuck… What are you doing here, Laney?”
