Chapter Twenty-One

Christian had a huge place right on the water and mostly absent parents, who traveled a lot for their jobs, if the number of parties he threw was any indication.

“I thought you said this was going to be low-key for a change.” I glared at Skyler. “Just a few people.” Christian had been acting out of character lately, so it hadn’t been completely unbelievable that he’d become less social during his transformation to misogynistic jerk.

She shrugged. “Oops.”

Connor chuckled.

“Christian’s parties are always loud, drunken debaucheries,” I said. “And the last time I went to a party, I ended up getting bitten by a vampire.”

“Tansy,” Skyler pouted. “I promise you that won’t happen again.”

I didn’t point out that I was already part vamp, so it couldn’t happen again.

“Okay, but we stick together,” I said. “No matter what.”

“I promise,” she said.

“Tansy, I’m glad you made it,” Christian greeted me and ignored Vaughn. He moved into my personal space, and I took a step back. Vaughn put his hand to my waist and drew me close to his side.

Christian was oblivious, but then Vaughn kissed my neck, which got through Christian’s dense fog of one too many shots.

“Wait. You two are together?”

I didn’t say anything because I thought it was obvious, but Vaughn said, “Yes, we are very much together.”

“That’s why you turned me down,” Christian continued, but it wasn’t a question. “Knew there had to be a reason she’d pass on all this.” He waved his hand up and down his body.

He’d asked me out right before Vaughn and I had decided we weren’t just friends. I opened my mouth but figured I wouldn’t wound his ego by telling him I wouldn’t have gone out with him either way. He was good-looking with brown eyes that always sparkled with mischief and thick dark hair, but he didn’t usually stick with one girl, not even for a night. Besides, I’d been too busy pining over Vaughn.

The rest of the pack were already here, and I noticed that Lucas kept a protective arm around Rose. She looked a little shellshocked at the number of people crammed into the house. Big as the place was, it was still overflowing with bodies.

Xavier and Thorn were talking quietly in a corner, and Beckett’s usual sunny smile was missing as he glowered at them from where he sat in the opposite end of the living room, surrounded by girls.

We made our way into the kitchen where the keg was, along with about a hundred of Christian’s friends. Okay, maybe not a hundred, but his kitchen was huge, bright, and filled with loud voices. Kelli Martelli sat on a barstool, kissing Samantha Devon, her ex, and a guy who graduated last year, Hunter Somebody, was throwing up in a trash can.

Through the enormous sliding glass door, I could see there were a bunch of people in the pool, but I’d learned not to look too closely, because I was pretty sure I’d see parts of my classmates that I never wanted to see.
