These women are a fucking blast.

I don’t think I laughed so much in all my life. They definitely know how to have a good time. Not all of them can drink, since some of them are pregnant, but it’s still fun. Spending time with them has also given me the opportunity to get to know Katy better.

“I heard you had some trouble,” Lily says after sitting next to me.

I nod my head. “Yeah, but nothing my man and brothers can’t handle.”

“Oh, I know they are cruel when they need to be,” she says with approval in her eyes.

“They are,” I tell her with pride in my tone.

“If you ever need anything, you let me know,” she says in a low tone. I nod my head at her words.

My mom is also down here having a few drinks. She doesn’t drink often, and it’s nice to see her let loose. All of her kids are in this building with her, which helps her to enjoy the present moment instead of worrying about any of us.

“So, Mrs. K, is it weird that one of your kids doesn’t follow the billionaire type vibe?” a woman named Krista asks.

My mom shakes her head. “No, I am proud of all of my children. As long as they are happy, then so am I. They can do what they want with their lives.”

Krista nods her head in approval.

After that the shots start lining up; I know I will be hungover tomorrow.

Someone turns the music up, and I jump up with excitement and start dancing. The next thing I know, everyone is joining me.

When my mom gets up on the coffee table and starts dancing, I don’t know whether to be horrified or amused. I have never seen my mother like this before.

Everyone is allowed to have their own fun. I guess I should be happy that she’s not taking off her clothes or making me relive images of her and my father.

I shudder as the thought goes through my mind and take another shot.

“You really care about my brother, don’t you?” I ask Katy when we take a break from dancing and have another drink.

A soft smile comes to her face. “Yeah, I do. I thought he was fucking hot when I first met him but, over time, I realised how much I like him. I still can’t believe he’s giving me another chance,” she slurs.

I laugh, but my heart softens even more towards her. “I could see why. You are a strong woman with everything you are going through. I have a feeling you guys will make it.”

“What about you and your man?” she asks, raising her eyebrow at me.

“I love him. We have had our troubles; mostly with communication, but everything seems to be working out. I’m crazy about him,” I admit with a huge smile on my face.

She chuckles at the lovesick look on my face. “That’s good. As long as you’re happy. Do they know who started the fire yet?”

Wow, I guess everyone has heard about what happened to me.

I shrug my shoulders. “Gabe is not saying much, but I know they are getting close. I’m mostly kept at home since they are worried that someone will come after me again. I just hope that it doesn’t last for long; I am already getting bored from being at home all the time.”

“That’s the thing about being forced to stay home. It’s like you can enjoy being home for weeks on end when it is of your own choosing but, once you are forced to stay in the house, it feels like torture,” she says in agreement.

“Oh, it does. Also, I wasn’t healed for anything fun until recently,” I tell her with a wink.

She chuckles and gives me a knowing look. “Well, I think life at home will be more fun now that you are.”

“Are we talking about sex?” Ella comes to visit us with an excited look on her face.

I laugh at her expression. “Oh, when isn’t the subject of sex on the table?”

“Sex is fantastic,” she agrees with a nod.
