“Stop staring at him like you want to kill him.” Seb came up beside me and handed me a beer.

I was by the bonfire, watching the girls play with the kids by the water. The sun was setting just beyond the horizon, and it was a picture of calm and serenity.

Amelia was holding her baby in her arms while Claire played with Sammy and Ella by the bank. Xander stood next to Selena, and they laughed at something she said. She brushed his arm, and he gave her a hug that was a little too close to be just friends.

“I’m fine,” I sipped on the beer, trying to seem unbothered. Why was he so fucking close to her? “Does he still have a thing for her?”

Seb settled into the seat beside me, his own beer in hand. “Xander has a thing for anything with a vagina. But there is something about Sel that makes him hold on.”

Hold on? To fucking what?

I rolled my eyes. “He wants to sleep with her.”

“Oh, they’ve done that plenty.”

I could not rationally explain the monsoon of fury that washed over me. It hit me like a two-ton truck right in the gut.

“I mean, again.” My voice was the exact opposite of the internal feelings I was experiencing.

Seb tilted his head to the side and looked at me. “Why are you so curious? Is there something you want to tell me?”

I cleared my throat and broke our eye contact. The last thing I needed was my best friend in the middle of my confusing feelings toward this woman. I was yet to make sense of all of it and I doubted that I would even be able to make it make sense to him.

“What are we talking about?” Nathaniel came toward the pit with his own beer in hand. The man looked like he had put on more muscle since the last I saw him. Arthur followed closely behind him and plopped himself down on the seat next to Seb.

“My best friend wants to kill your best friend for Selena’s affection.” Of course, Seb had to open his mouth. I swear, after he married my sister, he had become more and more like her. He lived to torment me the way that she did.

Nate looked between me and Seb and smiled. “My money is on Xander for the win.”

“What?”

“You know, me too.” Seb piped up.

“I third that motion,” Arthur added. Now, why was Arthur piping up? The man barely knew me.

“Firstly, why the fuck do you think I wouldn’t be able to win? And second, I do not want Selena!”

That was a bold-faced lie. At least partially.

“Really, though?” Arthur looked over the frame of his glasses at me. “The last I checked; you were making fuck-me eyes at her in the parking lot.”

“I was not making fuck me eyes in the—shut up,” I grumbled and turned away from the three of them. “She is my employee, and I am her boss. There was nothing more to that.
