I let her have this moment, despite still hating being hugged. A whole other reason I’d never shared with anyone.

“I would be honored to be your mom. I love you all so much, and I know I’ll never be able to take Bailey’s place, but if you’ll let me, I’ll try to be the best substitute in her absence.”

“Ma!” Journey chimed in, hugging her so hard, her eyes closed.

Camila spent a lot of time showing Journey pictures of our mother. She never wanted her not to know who her real mother was. Journey listened, loving her birth story, but in my baby sisters’ eyes…

Mary Poppins was her mother.

The night progressed, and at one point, I sat down at the corner table by the dance floor, watching the guests having the time of their lives.

Including Harley, who wouldn’t stop dancing.

Her body swayed.

Her ass shook.

Her tits bounced.

She was a fuckin’ muse.

I don’t know at what point it was where I started gravitating toward her. It was as if I blinked and I was standing in front of her. Reaching my hands out for her to take.

She eyed me up and down, narrowing her bright blue, enticing gaze at me. They were rimmed with black eyeliner, luring me in profusely.

“You’re jokin’, right? This a prank?”

“Shut up and just dance with me, Gremlin.”

“You can dance?”

“I’m standing here, aren’t I?”

“I don’t trust you.”

“That offends me deeply.”

“Jackson, I don’t wanna play—”

“No games, just dance with me. I’ll even say please.”

“Are you feelin’ okay?”

“I’d feel better if you’d dance with me.”

“Fine,” she sighed, giving in. “But if you—”

I grabbed her wrists and pulled her tight to my chest. She felt good in my arms.

Damn fuckin’ good.

“How do you always smell like that?” I whispered in her ear, slowly starting to dance.

“Smell like what?”

“Edible.”

“Are you saying you wanna eat me, Jackson Pierce?”
