The ride to the clubhouse doesn’t take long. When Viking kills the engine I’m torn. Holding onto him like this I want to stay this way. I want to feel the safety that I’ve felt every time I’m near him. This comfort. This peace. He made it clear that he doesn’t want me though.
“You okay back there?” he asks as he turns around to look at me over his shoulder. I nod, unravel myself from his waist, and climb off.
“What’s with the baggy clothes?” he asks after he climbs off after me.
“Nothing. I’m comfortable.”
I leave him behind me as I head inside to find Fin. It only takes me a second to see him. When he sees me a full blown smile crosses his face.
“You ready to party?” Fin asks excitedly as he comes toward me. He leans down and kisses my cheek before he pulls away.
“Yep. I’m ready for some fun. You better make it worth it,” I warn him playfully.
“Oh come on baby girl. You always have fun with your big brother,” he teases.
“I know. I love you Fin.” His smile slowly fades as he stares down at me.
“What happened? What’s going on?” Fin asks.
“Somethin’ wrong?” Viking asks as he steps up next to us.
He must have overheard Fin.
“Everything’s fine.”
“Don’t lie to me Carnie. I see the look on your face. Is it Eric? Tell me,” Fin demands.
“No, I love Eric. Everything is great. I’m just really ready to go have some fun with my big brother.”
I hope he buys my shit. I watch his face for a reaction. His smile comes back full force, but when I glance over at Viking, I can tell he knows something is off. He doesn’t need to say anything. I can feel it. It’s the weirdest thing to be able to feel what someone else is feeling.
“Well, I’m packin’ up the truck. I need to see who you can ride with since it’s full, but we’re just about ready,” Fin tells me excitedly.
“She can ride with me,” Viking adds almost instantly. Fin nods and smiles before turning on his heel and walking away. I turn toward Viking ready to rip his ass.
“What the hell was that?” I snap at him.
“That was me offerin’ you a ride.”
He starts to walk away from me, but I don’t let him. I grab his arm to stop him. He looks down at me with an amused smirk.
“Walk back to my room. Now,” his order is soft, but I heard it. I jerk at his tone and stand my ground. “Don’t make me cause a scene sweetheart.”
With that I turn and head down the hallway. I don’t know what it is he wants this time, but I’m in no mood to play this game with him. I was happy to be able to spend some time with Fin, but if this is what my vacation is going to entail then I’m beginning to rethink this trip.
I stop at Viking’s door and hesitate for a second. What if someone saw me coming down here? Surely they would tell Fin. Viking’s presence looms behind me as his hand comes around to open the door before he presses his body against mine making me move forward. As soon as we’re inside he kicks the door closed and watches me.
“I’m here. Now what the fuck was that?” I snap once more.
His lips tilt up and his eyes are dancing with light as he says, “That was me offerin’ you a ride to the beach house.”
“Why Viking? A few weeks ago you threw me out of your room like I was a club whore.”
I cross my arms over my chest and glare at him. He takes a few steps closer, invades my space, and seems to suck all of the air from the room.
“A few weeks ago things were different. Just answer me one question Carnie. Do you really love him?”
I can feel his breath against my skin. It’s so hot and heavy. Fuck me. Why does he do this to me? My pussy tingles as heat races through my veins and he hasn’t even fucking touched me.
How can I be so fucked up?
“Yes.”
“Does your breathin’ quicken like that when he’s near you?” God, I hate him right now. “Yes.” Liar.
“Lies Carnie. Those are all lies. I bet if I slipped my hand into those panties of yours that you’d be soaked,” he growls low in his throat. Banging on his door halts all of his
