Cameron frowns. “Go and do it against the wall then, we have to stand here while you two make a porno in front of our eyes.” Bridget clinks her glass with Cameron and Adrian and Abbie laugh.
I drop my head as I giggle in embarrassment and Joshua smiles and pulls me onto the dance floor.
“Dance with me, my beautiful slut, before I fuck you into next week,” he purrs.
I laugh out loud. “You are a born romantic, Stanton.”
He smiles broadly. “Sshh don’t tell anyone.” He spins me around until we are at the back of the dance floor and we pick up exactly where we left off. Erection in my stomach, hand at the back of my head, tongue in my mouth and me desperately needing a change of underwear.
Adrian
I stand with Cameron on the side of the dance floor. We watch Joshua spin Natasha around as they both laugh. No one else is in the room for them.
I smile broadly. “Have you even seen him dance with a girl before?” I ask Cameron as I drink my drink.
“Nope.” Cameron shakes his head as his eyes stay glued to the two of them.
“Me neither.” I smile. “He’s like a different person with her.
Cameron frowns. “If I ever get that pussy-whipped please get me castrated.”
I laugh into my drink. “Me too.”
Cameron shakes his head in disgust.
“What?” I ask.
He shakes his head and takes a swig of his beer. “How is this going to go when that silly bitch sends this email to Natasha, huh. What then? It will be Armageddon once more.”
My stomach drops as I run my hand through my hair. “I know. I am trying to get him to tell Natasha before that happens,” I mutter.
Cameron shakes his head in disgust. “Just pay the money and be done with it.”
I frown. “You can’t be that stupid? She will just keep coming back for more money and Natasha will finally find out,” I snap angrily.
“Can you imagine if Natasha sees that tape of him with her? She’ll lose it.”
“There’s a sex tape?” Abbie snaps from behind us. Fuck! My horrified eyes meet Cameron’s.
“What are you talking about?” Cameron snaps.
“Who’s blackmailing Joshua?” she asks as she puts her hand on her hip. “Has he been fucking around again?” she sneers angrily.
I shake my head as I try to think quickly on my feet. What in the hell did she just hear?
Cameron’s eyes flick to me. “No, of course not!” he snaps angrily. “Stop eavesdropping.”
“You tell me right now or I am going to tell Natasha.” Her angry eyes move between the both of us.
Cameron’s nervous eyes flick to Natasha and Joshua who are now kissing on the dance floor. “I don’t know what you are talking about,” he snaps.
“I’m not stupid and I won’t tell Tash. I mean it, tell me!”
Cameron’s eyes meet mine. “It was before he was with Natasha.”
Abbie narrows her eyes. “Where?” she snaps.
I swallow the lump in my throat. “Here in Australia,” I whisper quietly.
She narrows her eyes. “Go on,” she sneers.
“Joshua was with a girl before he was with Natasha at the weddin, Cameron says nervously as I take a drink.
“Yes, TC the prostitute,” she says.
Cameron frowns. “TC? What does that mean?”
She pulls a disgusted face. “Tunnel cunt.”
I spit my drink out and Cameron bursts out laughing. “That about sums it up actually.” He laughs.
“Anyway she had a camera in her bag and now wants five million dollars or she is going to send the tape to Natasha at work,” Cameron sighs.
Abbie narrows her eyes as she puts her hands on top of her head in frustration. “She’s such a bitch,” she snaps.
I frown. “You know her?”
She nods. “Unfortunately, yes, she does this shit often, blackmails men to get what she wants. She’s sleeping with my flat mate.”
My horrified eyes meet Cameron’s. “You know where she lives?’ I stammer.
“No, but I can find out. If she thinks she’s doing this to Natasha she has another think coming. That bitch is going down. Leave this to me and don’t you dare pay her one cent and don’t tell Joshua I know.”
Cameron’s eyes flick to me. Shit, now we have done it. Abbie storms off through the crowd.
“That’s going to backfire,” Cameron snaps.
“Tell me about it,” I stammer as I feel a hand snake around my waist from behind. Nicholas leans into my ear. “Hello,” he smiles.
I smile warmly over my shoulder. “Hello.”
Cameron’s eyes light up. “Hello, Nick, nice to see you.” They shake hands. I put my hand out and he smiles at me and then leans in and kisses my cheek. ‘I don’t think so,” he whispers into my ear.
I swallow uncomfortably and step back as my eyes drop to the perfect specimen before me, tall and dark in full naval whites. I feel myself harden.
His eyes drop down my body as he takes a sip of his drink and he licks his bottom lip seductively. “I like your outfit,” he smirks.
I smile nervously as my eyes flick to Cameron who smiles into his drink. “Thanks.” My heart rate just picked up by thirty beats per second. Why does he make me feel like this?
“Are you having a good time?” he asks.
“Amazing,” Cameron answers. “How many years have you been doing this event?”
He and Cameron start to talk but I can’t concentrate on the conversation. Every one of my senses is standing to attention. I have never had such a physical reaction to any person before and it’s very unsettling. He’s taller than me and lean but it’s his intelligence and confidence that arrests me and holds me captive. I’m so nervous I feel like I can’t breathe.
Nicholas’s eyes flick intermittently to me as he talks to Cameron. What’s he thinking? I really
should be joining in the conversation but I can’t even talk. This is ridiculous. As he continues to talk to Cameron he puts his hand out and gently runs it up and down my arm. Cameron’s eyes meet mine as he smirks at me. Fuck, Nicholas is a confident bastard.
His hand finds the bottom of my arm and he links our hands. “Can I steal you for a moment?” he asks.
