At that moment, I came, throwing my head back against the glass stall, my eyes making contact with his before I closed them.

Leigh must've left then because I heard the door close softly.

A smile formed on my mouth as I realized he had watched me fuck myself to the point of no control.

Good. I hoped he learned a lesson there.

Never interrupt me when I'm showering.

I went with the angelic look, wearing my hair in a low bun, wearing a short white dress.

Daddy was away this weekend, so it didn't matter what I wore—Mom never complained.

I’d just finished applying the final layer of mascara when Rafe hollered from downstairs.

"Where are you going tonight?"

"Out," I called back, hearing him curse.

He hated not knowing where I was going, because he was expected to look after me.

My family didn't know I was more than capable of looking after myself.

My phone lit up, and I saw that Jael had sent me a panoramic view of the party.

Jael was my friend, but we still competed for men; we both wanted the same type, yet we were chalk and cheese physically.

I was interested in Leigh's reaction to Jael, but I hoped there’d be some college guys there, at least.

I didn't dress like this for guys my age.

I admired my reflection, nodding with approval.

I looked perfect.

Opening the door, I slipped on my heels and grabbed my purse. I walked down the stairs silently, pausing at the end of the staircase when I saw Leigh waiting for me on the chaise lounge.

He didn't even react when he saw me, and my lips pressed together with irritation.

"Finally ready?" Leigh asked in a bored tone, rising to his full height.

He wore a white shirt with the cuffs rolled up roughly to reveal his heavily tattooed arms. His grey eyes swept over me briefly, and he nodded at the door.

"Let’s go."

That’s it?!

I bit my tongue, resisting the urge to ask him what he thought of my outfit. I almost choked when he handed me a helmet before climbing astride his bike.

"You're joking," I snapped, folding my arms. "This dress is skin tight. I can't open my legs wide enough to get on that thing."

Leigh sighed before rubbing the back of his neck.

"Fine. I'll take the sedan."
