Precarious

“Again,” he growls.

I do it again, and again, until I’ve downed four shots. My head swims by the time I wave my hand to stop.

“You’re such a pervert,” I slur, shoving his chest.

He snorts. “It’s my birthday.”

“So you keep telling me.”

Krypt appears behind me then, wrapping his arms around my waist. “Fuck off, Maddox. Birthday or not, you’re not sharin’ my woman.”

Maddox grins, baring his teeth in a way that seems almost feral. “You fuckin’ love it as much as I do, Krypt. Don’t go denying you wouldn’t like to fuck her with me.”

My cheeks flush. “Whoa, boys, calm down.”

Maddox winks at me. “Last chance to have a try before this bastard gets too serious.”

Krypt laughs. “She ain’t interested, bro.”

“Aren’t I?” I mumble, turning to face Krypt.

His eyes widen. “Didn’t think it was your thing?”

“My thing,” I snort. “Krypt, was it your hand in my pussy and my palm on your cock the other week while we watched Maddox get his dick sucked?”

Krypt grins. I flash him a sultry look and disappear. Talk about making them pant for it.

I keep drinking. The night goes on, and gets louder and more boisterous with each passing hour.

“Hey!” Santana cries, dropping down beside me.

“Hey you.” I grin, blinking through my drunken haze.

“Maddox throws a wild party.”

“He does,” I agree.

“So, I went out with Alec.”

I turn to her, eyes wide. “You did?”

She flushes and nods. “It was amazing, Ash. He even kissed me at the end.”

I grin, happy for her. “Are you going to tell Maddox about him?”

She shrugs. “Maddox doesn’t care what I do.”

“Sure about that?”

She rolls her eyes. “I’m sure. Besides, it would never work. Alec is good for me.”

I beam. “How was the kiss?”

She sighs and drops back. “Soooo good!”

I laugh. “I can’t wait to meet him.”

“Oh, I can’t wait either. You’ll love him.”

I grin. “Dance with me.”

We get up and make a spot on the dance floor, wiggling about until our heads spin. I stumble to the bar for another drink before glancing around for Krypt. I can’t find him, so I disappear down the hall. He isn’t in any of the rooms that he usually occupies.

I know Krypt has a house, but he spends a whole lot of time here. More than he does at home, which is strange. I wonder when I’ll see his home. I’m pondering this when I step into Maddox’s office. Krypt and him are laughing about something, but stop when they see me.

“Boys,” I purr.

I walk over to Krypt, taking his jacket in my hands and pulling him down for a kiss. He growls and returns it with full force. When I pull back, I’m panting. Damn, I should drink more often.

“Where’s my fuckin’ kiss? It’s my birthday.” Maddox chuckles from beside me.

“I’m not allowed to kiss you. I’m taken.” I grin, turning to face him.

“But it’s my fuckin’ birthday.”

Krypt laughs. It’s clear he’s under the weather too. In fact, I’d safely say we all are.

“Give him a kiss, baby. Make him see what he’s fuckin’ missing.”

I turn to Krypt. “My kisses are all for you.”

His eyes grow lusty and he stares down at me. “I know they are, but babe, I’m not goin’ to lie and say it won’t turn me on to see you and him kissin’ . . . especially if my hand is in your pants.”

My mouth drops open. “I thought you were all possessive and psycho?”

His grin widens. “Oh babe, I am, but fuck . . . there ain’t nothin’ more erotic than sharin’ a woman once in a while.”

I pout.

He leans down. “You’ll always be mine, and when we make that official no one, and I mean no one will touch you.”

“But right now we’re not official, is that it?” I frown.

“Babe, when we’re official you’ll be on the back of my bike, my ring on your finger, and my baby in your belly.”

Oh boy. “And will that be soon?”

“Fuckin’ aye.”

“So tonight we’re just going to,” I give Maddox a sideways glance, “fuck Maddox?”

He chuckles. “Only if you’re up for it.”

“Just once?”

“I ain’t gonna be able to share you more than once, so yeah.”

“You’re not going to ask for the favor to be returned and make me watch you fuck another woman, are you? Because I’m telling you right now, that will never happen.”

His smile widens, big and beautiful. “Makes me so fuckin’ proud that you love me like that. And no, I won’t ask to return the favor. I want to see you gettin’ fucked by two cocks, not the other way around.”

I flush. “I, ah . . .”

“Don’t dance around it,” Maddox growls. “You want us to fuck you, we will. If not, I’m goin’ to find some pussy, because I fuckin’ need it.”

I stare up at Krypt. “Are you sure about this?”

He takes my shoulders, spinning me around. He pulls my hands behind my back. “Oh yeah baby, I’m fuckin’ sure.”
