Tori: Good.
With a shiver of anticipation, I downed the rest of my drink. The warmth was starting to spread through me. I had just made it to the bar when I saw the guys make it past the bouncer. He likely made them stay back thanks to Easton’s shitty attitude.
Biting back my laughter I paid for my double shot and downed it, giving Easton a wink and heading for the dance floor.
He’d find me in seconds but I couldn’t find it in me to care.
Burn me alive, Easton, maybe for once I’ll let you.

Fifteen

Tori was playing with fire.
There was enough attitude in that wink that I was ready to drop to my knees and worship her.
She was an entirely different person than the omega we saw that first day. Her fear was likely there under the surface still, but something had changed.
She pushed her way through the crowd, several alphas looking her way as she sauntered past. It took everything I had not to hover behind her and kill anyone who dared to look at my mate.
Though she made it clear that we’d lost the chance to call her that. My stomach churned at the thought. She belonged with us. Even Theo was growling as another alpha approached her, his hands skimming over her hips before she rejected him.
Tori may not want it, but she had the attention of all three of us on her, unwavering and full of venom.
There was no way this was going to end well for the alphas in this room.
Then she started to dance.
I was rock-hard in seconds as I watched her lose herself in the music. Her eyes closed, her cheeks were warm and pink with the buzz of alcohol, her inhibitions falling away as she let herself just feel.
There was a soft smile on her face as she threw her hands up and moved her body fluidly to match the beat.
What I wouldn’t give to be out there on the dance floor with her, wrapping myself around my sexy mate.
I thought after the coffee, the interview, and the time we’d spent together that she was softening towards us.
Then she said those words as she walked out the door, reminding us of our place and pointed out the line that Easton had drawn for us in the sand.
He was fucking lucky I let him walk out of there unharmed after that.
Just that thought alone had my fists clenching at my sides for the millionth time in the last two days. My jaw was tight enough it felt like my teeth might crack but it was the only way I wasn’t punching the man I’d once called a brother.
He made it clear he was here for the contract and nothing more, expecting us to fall in line.
We had far too much history to just walk away from him, but I had a feeling it was going to come down to us being happy with our scent match or us being forever miserable with him.
That wasn’t a choice I wanted to make and one I wouldn’t make lightly.
Yet, I knew my answer already.
I’d choose Tori every fucking time.
Tori wasn’t the pampered socialite he thought she was. If he spent more than two seconds without fighting with her, he might be able to see that.
Easton had built up more defenses than anyone I knew. The walls around his emotions and his heart were so strong that no one could get through but us. That was only because we’d been through hell and back together. That was a bond that wasn’t easily broken, and I didn’twantto break it.
