CHAPTER NINETEEN

Hettie

Seeing Reid and his friends together made me realize just how different they were. Billy appeared to be the more relaxed of the three men in his white v-neck t-shirt, jeans, and black leather jacket, chatting away and laughing with us all.

Thomas, on the other hand, was the complete opposite. He was more uptight than the others and that was evident in his choice of attire. He was perfectly turned out in a charcoal grey suit, which he’d paired with a red tie. He even had a matching pocket square. I mean, who wears a pocket square these days?

Granted, both men were tall and off the scale good-looking, they still had nothing on Reid. Dressed in dark-colored clothes, Reid was the epitome of hot. If you ask me, he looked like he’d fallen from the sky. A Viking created by the gods.

Our booth was a bit crowded with so many of us crammed into the small space, so Reid pulled me into his lap, giving everyone else a bit more space to spread out. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t mind one bit. But I had a feeling that things were going to get a lot more awkward when I felt his hard cock pushing into my backside.

I wasn’t exactly used to being this turned on all the time. I wasn’t sure what to do with how I was feeling. I wanted to show Reid what he did to me, but I also didn’t want my friends to see what a wanton hussy I had become since meeting him. Throwing caution to the wind, I did a little shimmy on his lap, careful not to let anyone see what I was doing.

We were all several drinks in and having a good time when I felt Reid suddenly tense behind me. I could hear him whispering with Thomas, so I assumed they were having words. Of course, I didn’t want to be paranoid and assume they were talking about me, but my worry only grew as they continued to talk, Reid’s grip on my hip becoming firmer. I can’t explain it, but it felt like he was trying to hold me in place, to keep me from disappearing.

Thomas had barely spoken to me since our arrival. He would give me the occasional uncomfortable head nod or a simple, ‘Hettie’. Otherwise, he was completely silent, glaring at me with stone-cold eyes. I didn’t know anything about him or his past, but he was clearly an expert at hiding his emotions. At least when it came to me.

I leaned forward and tried to distract myself, listening to Billy tell Heather how much he loved the scones she sold in the coffee shop. Meanwhile, Lou was busy staring at him.

“Tell us about you, Billy,” Lou asked innocently. I couldn’t stop watching her, watching him.

“Honestly, there isn’t much to tell. I’m no one special. I used to be a boxer. I even won a few championships. Now, I own a gym. I want everyone to be able to protect themselves, so I teach boxing and self-defense.
