Chapter Seven

“You look happy,” Tagan said. He sipped his beer and watched her.

Connor watched her, too, from across the fire, but his attention seemed more possessive. She’d caught Tagan staring at her often tonight, but in his eyes, adoration pooled in the deep blue color. The man could warm her with just a look. He’d been doing it all night.

The boys were currently comparing the long arm of a machine called a processor to their dicks. The night was full of dirty jokes and laughter, but she couldn’t seem to stay in the conversation anymore. Her attention kept drifting to Tagan. He’d cooked for them, then gone out of his way to make sure she had everything she needed. He didn’t know it, but she’d seen him shake his head at Kellen as he prepared to offer her more boxed wine.

He wasn’t controlling about it, or abrasive, and she knew if she wanted, she could have more wine. But she’d had a dizzy spell earlier, and Tagan had steadied her, looking worried, then made sure Kellen didn’t pressure her to finish the box on her own. She’d sobered up over the past couple of hours, but she still wasn’t ready for bed. It was late, ten o’clock at least, but it was so nice to just sit here, listening to potty talk, with the laughter of her new friends as medicine for her soul. It helped that Tagan had taken an old lawn chair right beside hers.

Brighton sat down across the fire with a beat up old guitar and started strumming a song she recognized from the radio. If she had any kind of voice, she’d hum along, but as it stood, she couldn’t hold a tune. Denison, however, could.

He sang a strong, clear baritone with that thick, country accent of his, and Brooke propped her feet up on an overturned log in front of her and relaxed into her plastic chair. The boys grew quiet, settling in as Denison hit the chorus. Conversation faded to an occasional murmur as the boys nursed their beers and stared at the fire in the middle of them all. Brooke looked up to the sky, suddenly yearning to see the stars she’d seen last night. The ones that looked radiant in the mountain sky.

“You want to go up there?” Tagan asked.

Brooke rolled her head toward him and smiled. “How’d you know?”

“That place calls to me, too. You can’t see it as well from here. The firelight and smoke pollute the view of the sky.”

Shyness crept over her, dragging heat into her cheeks. Leaning over, she whispered into his ear. “Will you come with me?”

Tagan’s breath hitched, and he hesitated before he answered. She thought he would say no, but instead, he grabbed her hand and helped her up, then led her around the outskirts of the circle.

Connor’s cold eyes followed them. Brooke couldn’t look away from him as the firelight reflected strangely across his face. They looked like the eyes of an animal illuminated by high beams at night on the side of the road.
