But I’ve been seeing him every day and listening to his entertaining retellings of his childhood adventures with Killian, so I don’t really view him in that light.Much.
Everyone at the table most definitely does. Probably because of his permanent scowl and all the tattoos.
Annika has physically distanced herself from sitting opposite Creighton’s side and sneakily changed seats so that she’s beside Ava.
And for the first time since we got here, Creighton raises his head, flips his phone facedown on the table, and looks between Annika and the two newcomers.
“Yeah, sure!” It’s Ava who announces, definitely high on liquid courage. “The more the merrier.”
Killian drags a chair from a nearby table and glues himself to my side, and Nikolai joins him, appearing solemn-faced.
I poke Killian, squinting so I can have a better look at his handsome face. “You said to have fun on my night out with friends.”
“Never said I wouldn’t pay a visit.” He winks.
“Shouldn’t you be busy with school?”
“Never too busy for you, baby.”
“Aren’t you the charming one?”
“Only with you.”
“Why have you brought Nikolai?” I whisper. “He’s terrifying them.”
“He’s not that scary.”
I raise a brow.
“Thatbeing the operative word.” He smiles, then says in a voice loud enough for everyone to hear, “So what are we playing?”
“Never have I ever,” Bran says, sounding a bit choked. “And Glyn will start.”
You know what? I’m just going to have fun and forget it all tonight. Screw Killian.
I raise a shot. “Never have I ever done something illegal.”
Nikolai lifts a shoulder and downs a shot. Creighton does it without a word.
“What did you do…” Annika asks, then backpedals, swallows, and stares at Nikolai. “Nikolai?”
“You know the drill.”
Ava takes a shot and Cecily and I stare at her dumbfounded.
“What illegal things have you done?” Ces asks.
“Sorry, bitches, there are no rules that say I have to explain. Should’ve set that beforehand.”
Remi downs a shot. “Drugs, those nasty little shits.”
“Why aren’t you drinking?” I ask Killian.
“Because I’m not admitting to doing anything illegal. My father and grandfather are lawyers, thank you very much.”
“That’s not how it works.”
“Do you have proof that I committed illegal action?”
