Luckily for me, I see her at a distance, also remaining at the edges of the party. She likely doesn’t know anybody here, and I’m happy to help alleviate that pressure.
I walk up to her with my mask on and say, “You did a beautiful job here tonight.”
She turns to look at me, those stunning green eyes striking as ever beneath her mask.
“Oh, Matt, you’re saving me. I’ve been feeling so awkward, just standing here not knowing anybody.”
I can’t imagine Meg feeling awkward for a moment. She’s too beautiful for all of that. She could walk into a room and take it by storm if she wanted to. She’s that remarkable.
“I don’t believe that for a second,” I say to her, looking intently into her eyes. “You’re the most beautiful woman here. Don’t forget that.”
She blushes, and her humility makes me as hard as ever. I have to fight the instinct to drag her back to my room, so that I can remind her just how precious she is.
I tilt her chin up so that she has she’s forced to look at me. “Don’t ever feel uncomfortable. You’re the most beautiful woman in the room, any room, and you’d do well to remember that.”
I’m just about to pull her in for a kiss when my brother Ian interrupts us. Of course, he looks good, and normally, I don’t fucking care, but tonight is different. I want Meg all to myself.
“Ian,” she exclaims. “You look so great.”
He pulls her easily to his side, and I take note that her hands are wrapped tightly around his torso, likely feeling the muscles that he sculpts every day in our home gym. I envy my brother for whatever hold he has on her. I note with dissatisfaction the way she’s smiling up at him, and I wonder at their connection.
Is it stronger than whatwehave? Will she choose him over me?
I feel jealous rage as I watch them together. I want to be a part of whatever they have. I want to be a part ofher.
But the realization that Meg might not be able to make a choice between us brothers doesn’t escape me.
I don’t want her to feel pressure from me. I’m content to share her, as long as I have my fill.
I realize that now. That she’s the only thing that matters to me at this point. That as long as I’m with her and she’s happy, then I’m happy.
“Meg, where did you get that dress?” he says.
She smiles at him, and I realize they have a sort of inside joke. This must be one of the gowns she purchased on their shopping excursion.
“You’ve done a fantastic job on this party,” he says.
“Well, I had a lot of help. You guys have the best party planners in the business. It was very easy to execute my vision. Do you like how dark and mysterious it is?”
Both Ian’s and my expressions turn hungry as we realize what she’s saying. She obviously wanted the evening to be wrapped in romance and intrigue, and she certainly achieved that goal.
“I…I just wanted to impress you guys. It meant so much to me that you wanted to throw this party. I hope it’s up to your standards,” she says.
Her sensitivity turns me on like nothing else could. She’s nothing like any other woman I’ve met. She’s different, unique. Her rarity makes me crave her more.
What the fuck is she doing to me? What is this hold she has on my heart...and my cock?
I’ve already bedded her once, and yet I am not fulfilled. I want more, more, and more.
What does this say about me?
“Do you guys want me to get you a drink?” she asks.
“No, babe, I’ll get it,” I say.
She looks guilty for a second and says, “Actually, I’d like to circle the party and look for Paul and Evan, if that’s okay. I think we should all celebrate together.”
I decide to cast off my jealous rage for a second and to let her have this moment. If she wants to look for my brothers, she can do that. Her happiness is more important than anything else...even if that means being with my brothers.
