Pucked Over (Pucked #3)(35)
Author: Helena Hunting

“Think you can wait until the end of the night before you lock Lily in another bedroom to get your dick wet?” he grumbles as we head down the stairs.

I fasten my cuff and smooth a hand down my shirt. It’s wrinkled from being on the floor, but I’m not the focus tonight, so it’s doubtful people will notice. “What’s your problem, man? Lily says you two have been disappearing all day. If you’d invited me to come early, maybe I could have kept her company.”

He grits his teeth. “Seriously, Balls, I’m not in the mood for this right now. Violet’s hammered, and we’re trying to get her sobered up so she doesn’t say something stupider than she usually does. I don’t have time to police you and your dick. Lily’s like part of Sunny’s family. Alex is almost as protective of her as he is of Sunny. You see how you’re not helping things?”

“Does he have a thing for her?” A hot feeling shoots down the back of my spine.

“For Lily? No.”

“Did he ever?”

“How should I know? That’s not relevant anyway, considering he’s marrying my sister. My issue right now is that it makes Lily look bad if you’re hauling her off to bang her all over the house. Alex won’t like it. I’ve worked way too hard to smooth things over with him for you to go fucking it up by screwing Lily around.”

“I’ve already told you, I’m not screwing her around.”

Miller rubs his forehead. “I know you’re not trying to, just use a little judgment. You’re in Waters’ house. He’s already stressed. He doesn’t need a reason to snap.”

Lily and Sunny come out of the bathroom, ending our conversation. Lily looks just as gorgeous as she did before I got her naked and made a nest of her hair. It’s still a little tangled, but I can’t imagine anyone noticing, other than present company.

Honestly, all I want to do is bail on this party, take Lily back to my place, and fuck her until she has to leave for Canada. She is everything I like in a woman, plus she skates. And she’s on the rebound. So I’m nothing but a gateway to the next guy. It’s the absolute perfect setup. Miller’s getting his balls in a knot over nothing.

Lily’s eyes settle on mine. There are questions in them. She probably wants to know what I’ve been saying to Miller while she and Sunny have been in the bathroom. She holds Sunny’s arm while she slips her feet into her heels.

Miller gives me a look, which I ignore. I thread my arm through Lily’s. “Ready for dinner?”

“Where’s my underwear?” she whispers.

I have no idea. Once they came off I had no interest in putting them back on. “You don’t need them.”

“But I—”

“We need to get down there. Charlene keeps texting. I think Violet’s having a hard time,” Sunny says while checking her phone.

“We’ll find them later.” I squeeze the back of her neck and Lily leans into me, holding my arm as she hums. I don’t know what that’s about, but I like the way I affect her. I bet I could get hard again right now without much work.

Dinner is going to be so much fun.

I let Lily go ahead with Sunny and follow Miller out of the room. He’s still in a mood. I assume he’s worried about Vi. Those two are tight for being stepbrother and sister. They’re exactly how siblings should be, except they do a lot of sharing. And not the kind you want from someone you’re related to.

A huge covered tent with tables and twinkle lights has been set up in the backyard. Everyone’s already seated, so it’s a bit of a production for us to get to the table assigned to us.

We get a few looks as we make our way through the maze of guests. Lance is at our table when we get there. Tash looks less than impressed right now. She’s pushing salad around on her plate and talking to a girl I don’t know. The chair beside her is empty, although it looks like someone’s been there based on the napkin placement.

I take the seat beside Lance and hold out the other one for Lily. She smoothes her hands down the backs of her thighs as she sits, reminding me that flimsy fabric is the only thing covering that sweet, hot pussy. I tuck her in close to the table and take a seat.

“What’ve you been up to?” Lance gives me a knowing grin.

“Just gettin’ a tour of the house. We miss anything?” I stretch my arm across the back of Lily’s chair.

She crosses her legs and pulls her chair in a little tighter, but she doesn’t look my way. She’s focused on Sunny and her phone.

“Nothing yet, but I have a feeling something’s brewing. Waters’ girl is hammered.” His eyebrows lift, like he’s excited for the show.

I check out the head table, not far from us. It’s no different than ours. Violet and Alex, along with Darren and his girl, sit with the parents. It’s a weird collection of people. Violet’s mom looks exactly like she does, just older. They have the same body, same face, same mannerisms. Sidney, Miller’s dad, looks a lot like Miller, but with darker hair, and less of it. Violet tries to pour herself a glass of wine, but her friend switches the bottle for a different one. Waters leans in and says something, and Violet gives him a pouty face.

When Waters tips her chin up, I look away. Miller’s expressed concern on multiple occasions that this whole engagement party might be a little much for Violet. He says she gets nervous in front of people. There must be a story there, but he hasn’t offered to tell it.
