He gives me a wicked smile. “Come on, babe. Live a little.”

I sigh. “Fine.”

I’ve never been to a party like this, with people who are my age who are letting loose and having fun. There aren’t any guards to report my every move back to my mother or Odin. No hidden threats in the shadows. No, this is good, old fun. And right now I’m having to blink back tears that threaten to spill from my eyes. Fuck. Being here is a reminder of how much I haven’t lived, and I don’t like it one bit.

Freja comes back, two red plastic cups in hand. She sloshes beer out of one as she passes it to me.

“Oh my god, this is amazing. If I forget to say it later, thank you for breaking me out.”

“You’re welcome.”

We clink our cups together and each take a sip. I’m not sure what I was expecting, but beer is disgusting. Judging by the look on Freja’s face, she feels the same.

“Come on. There were some shots over there.”

That I can do.

I follow her across the room where a tray of green Jell-O shots sits on a table surrounded by empty beer cans. She hands me a shot and we loosen them before swallowing them.

“That’s more like it.”

Flynn comes up at that moment and says, “There’s vodka. Do you want me to make you a mixed drink?”

“Sure.”

He kisses my cheek before disappearing.

Freja grabs my arm. “Girl, that boy is so into you.”

“Do you really think so?”

She nods. “I bet he tries to put a move on you.”

My cheeks are still warm when Flynn returns, handing us each a new red cup. This is so much better, even if it is mostly vodka. Anything is better than beer!

“Drink up. They’re about to start another beer pong game, and I want the two of you on my team.”

I groan. “No more beer.”

“You can keep drinking that. The point is, we’re going to get shitfaced.”

Freja yells, “Hell yeah!”

Several hours later, I’m wasted. Not as wasted as Freja, but still, I’m feeling pretty good. Flynn and I have been making out for a while now, and I’m starting to feel hot all over.

“Flynn,” I moan against his lips.

“Let’s find somewhere a bit more private, Anna-banana.”

I laugh at the nickname but let him lead me upstairs to an unoccupied room. Judging by the clothes scattered on the ground, this room belongs to a very messy guy. Flynn closes the door behind us, locking it. We stare at each other for a moment before his lips crash against mine in a wet kiss.

“Fuck. You’re so beautiful, Anna. I still can’t believe you’re in here with me. I haven’t been with anyone since—”

We stumble, falling onto the bed together. The mattress is lumpy, and I try not to think about who might have been in here before us. Because I definitely saw a condom wrapper on the ground. Flynn fumbles with my pants, shoving his hand inside. It’s not even close to the finesse that Odin has. Odin. I groan. God, I should not be thinking about him right now. Flynn takes my sound as a sign to push his hand in even more. He roots around, rubbing everything but my actual clit.

“You’re so sexy, babe,” he pants into my ear.
