I’d been here like five minutes and I was already wanting someone to bend me over a table: a very particular alpha, someone who watched me with the gaze so hot I was surprised my clothes didn’t burst into flames. A gorgeous omega appeared to steal Billie away for a dance, leaving me with Jasper.
His breath was ragged in my ear. I leaned back, angling myself so I could breathe in the sweet chocolate and cinnamon scent of him. That was dangerous—one whiff hitting me just as hard as the vodka. There was no way that he missed the pitiful sound that fell from my lips or the way my fingers disappeared into his thick curls.
I tried to focus on the dancing. Billie swayed alluringly with their omega partner, and an icy surge of jealousy slithered around in my chest.
Jasper laughed in my ear. “Are you growling at them?”
I shrugged my shoulders. If I was, it wasn’t on purpose.
“It's hard to watch at first,” he said. “I’ve gotten used to people finding them fascinating and wanting to be close. Billie’s a flirt, but they never pursue anything beyond that without talking to us. Will you let me distract you?”
I nodded without thinking. When a new song began, Jasper spun me around, pulling me into what seemed like a proper dance position. He moved me to the beat, and I did my best to follow the flow of the music and his guiding body. The twirls caught me off guard, leaving me laughing each time we crashed together and maneuvered through the crowd.
I wouldn’t have pegged Jasper as a dancer. When he turned me again, laying my back to his chest with his forearms wrapped over my stomach, I noticed the strength of them for the first time. The corded muscle flexed when I laid my hands over them. I guess people got pretty strong kneading bread every day.
Arms like that could ruin a girl.
“You smell so fucking good,” Jasper murmured against my ear, nipping the lobe teasingly.
I didn’t stop my whine this time. Jasper's cock rose behind me and he pulled me closer still, grinding against me with a fierce little growl in my ear. I wove my fingers into his red curls, his scalp sweaty under my touch.
I lost track of how many songs passed and how long Billie had been gone. Everything centred down to the omega at my back and the ever present throb between my thighs.
When my feet started to ache and my throat burned from the exertion, I tapped Jasper's arms, and he worked us through the crowd toward one of the smaller bars at the back of the club. I didn’t make the connection to where we were going until he stopped in front of Gabe and Billie. Gabe watched us with amusement clear in his eyes, and Billie leaned against the wall sipping a brilliantly coloured cocktail.
“He finally tired you out, Books?”
“Just need a bit of a refuel. Where have you been?”
“Watching you grind on my omega in between letting the club patrons grind on me.”
Heat flooded my face. “I didn’t mean to hog him.”
Billie waved away the concern. “I refuse to get in the way of you and Jaspy having sexy bonding time. I’ve had access to his cake for years. I’m more than happy to share with you.”
I swallowed hard, my tongue thick.
“Having fun?” Gabe asked.
“Yep,” I said, not quite able to meet his gaze.
“Come on, cuties,” said Billie. “Let's get you some refreshments.”
Billie ordered me a vodka cranberry with lemon soda so I could get some more sugar and fluids rather than straight alcohol. At a signal from Gabe, the bartender also gave us each a glass of water.
I was never going to be thirsty again if these alphas had their way. I chugged down my water and sipped more slowly at my drink. The three of us rested together at a small table near where Gabe kept his silent watch of the patrons. The crowd tonight seemed well behaved, and none of the bouncers had needed to step in, that I had seen anyway. It was a shame that Gabe had to work because I was pretty sure he would be able to fling me around the dance floor as easily as Jasper had. Maybe on a night he didn’t work we could all go to an all inclusive club so that the alphas could join us.
The sugar, water, and extra boost of alcohol worked their magic, and Billie shoved me back out onto the dance floor with Jasper. He looked at me with that same fire in his eyes. I was far enough separated from yesterday's upset that I didn’t stop myself from rising up on my toes to hook my arm around his neck to kiss him. His chocolate scent burst around me and his hands snaked up my back, stroking the bare skin exposed by the dress. His mouth was soft, warm, and eager, sliding against mine with a hot determination, and it was all I could do to keep up. He dropped his hands lower and tugged the hem of my dress back down, cupping both butt cheeks to keep it secure.
“Jasper,” I breathed his name, wishing there was somewhere we could go. I was as randy as a teen and ready to drag him into a bathroom.
The house lights went up and back down, a warning for last call.
“Gabe won’t be off for a couple hours, but we can get the limo to take us home.” He threaded his hands into my hair, loosening my hasty updo.
My clit had been throbbing since he’d first put his hands on me. One word broke through my needy haze. “Limo?”
“We have one on call for tonight. Billie just has to let them know when we’re ready.”
