“Nah, I think I’ve reached my limit for the night.”

We were still holding hands. Anna realized at the same time and dropped my hand.

“So, what are your plans for the evening?” I asked.

She stared up at me, her eyelashes fluttering around her blue eyes. She nibbled her lower lip and stepped in closer to me. “I don’t really have any plans. How about you?”

“I was just thinking… you’re welcome to come over to my place.”

Anna smiled, and the heat inside me spread throughout, moving south as my slacks suddenly grew tighter.

“I think I’d like that a lot. As long as you know there’s just fun and…well, whatever this is we’re telling our families.” She giggled.

“Of course,” I said. “It’s all about fun. Nothing serious.”

“Then let’s go,” she said, once again taking my hand in hers and leading me away from the party.

The way that dress clung to every curve, the way her ass moved with every step… She was brains and beauty, and part of me knew I was in trouble.

But there was no way I could refuse her.

Chapter 3

Anna

“I had no idea Uber drivers were willing to drive us to the middle of nowhere,” I teased as the car slowly drove down one of the narrowest, darkest roads I had seen.

Neither of us had been sober enough to drive home, having downed too many drinks at Emily’s party. Something I was sure to regret the next day.

Levi chuckled. “I know. I really don’t like people and want to be as far away from them as possible.”

“Same, dude. Same,” I responded as the driver pulled up to an adorable little cabin.

Levi really did live in a cabin in the middle of nowhere. There were lights around the property so it wasn’t pitch black, and the moon was bright in the sky. For a second, I was speechless at the splendor of the property and how isolated it was.

A loud screeching sound interrupted the night as well as another sound I couldn’t make out.

“Shit,” Levi said, jumping out of the car quickly and taking off toward a fenced in area.

I thanked the driver and tried to run after Levi, slipping off my heels to try to catch up. “Levi, what the hell–”

“It’s Birdtha.”

“Birdtha? What the hell is a Birdtha?”

“It’s my asshole emu, and she’s chasing Alpacacino. He broke the gate again and got into her enclosure. He’s not the brightest.”

Levi tried to hop the fence but was still tipsy. He stumbled as he climbed and fell over the other side.

“I’m going to be truthful with you, Levi. I have no idea what’s going on here.”

I heard the screeching sound; clearly it came from an animal. A bird. Birdtha, I assumed. And then out of nowhere, I saw an alpaca running toward Levi and the wagging head and neck of a giant emu right behind him.

“Jesus, Levi, you weren’t lying about the emu.”

“Why would I lie about having an emu?”

“I meant you weren’t lying about her being an asshole.”
