Chaos releases my hair, and I elevate my head, noticing that she can't see us from behind the pier, so I shout back.

“Yeah, two minutes!”

I peer at Reign, who is staring at me expressionlessly, but his pupils are dilated as I slip my bikini top back over my bare breasts. He slides my briefs back over the curve of my ass before Chaos brings his arm around my middle and peels me away from Reign.

Reign moves his steady stare away from mine before turning around and swimming back to shore, and I hold on to Chaos who follows behind him.

As I trail behind Chaos to his bedroom, dripping wet and cold, I notice Reign a short distance in front of us. When we come to a halt at the door, Reign and Chaos shake hands before Chaos enters, but I stop by the threshold, observing Reign as he heads toward a room at the far end of the corridor. His gaze meets mine for a split second before he enters, and I pause for a moment longer before walking into the bedroom.

Chaos rushes to the shower, and I continue to follow him because I, too, need one after being in that water for so long. Once we get inside, I wash my body, but I can feel him watching me intensely as I peer down at myself. As soon as he has finished washing himself, he suddenly grabs my throat and crashes me against the steamed-up glass, startling me. I elevate my chin as he leans his face in close and speaks sternly.

“You will undoubtedly fuck my brother tonight, and no, I will not be mad at you for it, but let me make one thing very clear, Lil Chaos, no one else gets to enter that delicious cunt of yours while you're fucking me or him.”

I'm perplexed by his suggestion that I will fuck Reign tonight; nonetheless, his possessiveness throws me off, but I kind of like it. I thought Chaos would allow me to just fuck anyone with his laid-back attitude, which sometimes feels strange, but it appears I was wrong.

He kisses me hard on the lips just as I am ready to answer, stealing my breath before freeing my throat and backing away, his wicked eyes staying locked with mine.

“I'll see you soon, beautiful. Have fun.”

I observe him as he steps out of the shower, leaving me leaning against the glass in the exact position he left me.

Chaos has already left when I exit the shower, and I sit down to blow dry my long, dark hair with a dryer when I suddenly hear a knock on the door.

My brows furrow in confusion as I turn off the dyer, and as I stand, I pull my towel firmly around my body while stepping toward the door.

When I open it, Lucy is standing there with a big smile on her face, dressed up, holding a bottle of red wine and two glasses. I return a small smile and move back to allow her to enter. She glances around as soon as she strides in, and while I close the door behind her, she sets the two glasses on a table before pouring us one each.

“I want you to look hot tonight, Char.”

I roll my eyes as she turns to face me, two glasses in her hands, and passes one to me. I take it from her and bring it to my lips, taking a big gulp of the silky, expensive liquid before responding.

“Why do we have to get dressed up, Lucy?”

“It's the last night, so we might as well!”

I offer her a slight nod before strolling toward my luggage, knowing better than to argue with her.

“Chaos has returned to New York, huh?”

As I drag the zip down on my bag, I glance at her.

“That's right.”

“That's a real shame.”

My brows rise as I rummage through my belongings.

“Yeah, he appears to be a busy man, but I suppose that's his job.”

Lucy gasps as I pull out the only dress, I had brought with me and presses it against my body. It’s a floor length, simple black dress with thin straps and a zip at the back.

“Oh, my goodness, girl. That will look beautiful on you!”

I gaze down at it, feeling satisfied that it will look okay before setting it on the bed, and when I'm done, I turn to Lucy, my eyes soft.

“Thank you for today, you didn't have to do that.”

She scoffs and waves me away with her hand.
