He says it so effortlessly, like I'm not about to burst out a moan right now. I put a smile on my face and use all my might to stand up straight. Music starts playing from the background as familiar and strange faces start dancing while others talk to each other and drink champagne. I see Violet, pushing through the dance floor in a purple dress and wearing a pink masquerade mask toward me.
"Eve, what's wrong?!" She says as she reaches me closer. I put a smile on my face.
"Sorry, I had a cramp. You know how it is when you've been in a jet for a long time," I say, fake smiling, "You guys did all of this for us?" I say changing the topic.
"Of course! It was Mr. Winters's idea, but his brother planned the party," Violet says, smiling. I look at Mr. Winters, seeing the corner of his lip pull a grin.
"You did this?" I ask him.
"I may had something to do with it," He says. I smile and look at Violet.
"Look at you! You look absolutely stunning in that purple dress!" Violet chuckles as she twirls her light purple designer dress from side to side.
"Oh, stop! My dress is nothing compared to your captivating red dress. It must have cost a fortune!"
"Yeah, it must have," I say as I turn my head to look at Mr. Winters, and he looks away.
"You two go ahead and enjoy the party. I'll be conversing with others if you need me, kitten," I smile at Mr. Winters.
"All right, he gave you permission. Come on!" Violet pulls my arm with the light purple gloves her hands are wearing. My hand slides against Mr. Winters's arm as she pulls me from him and into the crowd.
"What do you mean, gave me permission?" I ask, "Even though we're getting married, Mr. Winters doesn't need to "give me permission" to do what I want to do. He lets me do whatever I want," Violet stops pulling me and looks at me.
"Really? He looks like the kind of person who would control your every move and action," I roll my eyes, and Violet starts pulling me again.
"No, he's quite the opposite and is very sweet," I say, and Violet laughs.
"Okay, if you say so," She says as she pulls me through the crowd. I breathe out a breath I didn't know I was holding as the vibrator slows to a stable condition.
I smile as she pulls me to Charlotte, wearing a sky-blue designer dress while standing next to a tower of champagne glasses. My smile fades as I see next to her, Hunter Winters, wearing a suit and holding a champagne glass in his right hand. I look at his left arm, confused as to what happened, as a cast is wrapped around his arm and hand while sitting in a sleeve with the strap over his shoulder. My eyes narrow at his arm as one name comes to mind... Cole.
Charlotte's eyes light up through her light-blue masquerade mask as she sees me.
"Evangeline!! You're getting married!" Charlotte says excitedly, "We have to see the ring," I smile, ignoring the ignorant disgust of seeing Hunter next to her as I hold out my left hand, showcasing my emerald ring.
"It's incredible!" Violet says as she and Charlotte gaze upon my ring.
"I'm going to talk to the soon-to-be groom. I'll be back in a jiffy," Hunter says to Charlotte.
"Okay, darling. Take your time," Charlotte says. She closes her eyes and kisses Hunter on the lips while Hunter stares me up and down as he kisses her passionately back.
He pulls away from the kiss quickly. He bumps my arm as he walks past me and Violet. I look at Violet, confirming she saw the same as I did, and she shrugs her shoulder. I turn my head back as all three of us watch Hunter walking to the other side of the yard to Mr. Winters talking to some of his men. Violet whips her head at Charlotte.
"You're still with Hunter?! What the hell is wrong with you two dating the Winters brothers? Don't you know their business is dangerous and inconsiderate? What's worse is that one of you two is about to marry one of the Winters," I roll my eyes and take a deep breath, finally getting used to the vibrator.
"Oh, yeah? What about you?! You're dating Donny. You know what kind of business he does!" I stare at her intensely, knowing she knows Donny's other job. Violet looks away, taking a sip of her drink.
"What business?" Charlotte asks. I look at her and smile.
"Donny's a... bodyguard. You know how risky those jobs are," Charlotte looks at me, suspicious.
"If he's a bodyguard, then-" I clear my throat, interrupting Charlotte, and grab a glass of water behind Charlotte.
"I have to make a toast to everyone," I tap my finger on the glass, drawing the attention of a small group of people, "If I could have everyone's attention, please?" The music stops, and everyone's eyes focus on me. I swallow nervously. I've never had this many people's eyes on me.
"Thank you. I would like to take a moment to thank all of you for sparing time out of your busy day to celebrate this momentous memory. From friends, family, newcomers, and old workers, all of you have come to celebrate this wonderful new journey for us. I'd like to especially mention a big thank you to my fiance," I take a big breath in and out as I feel the vibrator kick to the next level. I look at Mr. Winters grinning as he has his hand in his pocket and his other hand sipping a glass of champagne.
I clear my throat and pretend to wipe a tear from my eye, "I'm sorry, everyone. Mentioning the word fiance feels surreal. Anyway, as I was saying before I got emotional, I want to thank my fiance for setting up this party and organizing everything. He is my rock, my soul, and my best friend. Sorry, Charlotte," I look at her, and she rolls her eyes.
I laugh and look back at the crowd, "I never thought I'd get married, until I met Mr. Winters. I can't wait for the future, where I get to come home and live my life with him as I marry my best friend. So, thank you for spending your time here, and to my fiance for making this possible. Please, raise your glasses, and toast with me... to Mr. Winters!" I raise my glass, and everyone else raises their glass, cheering Mr. Winters. I take a sip out of my glass as the music comes back on, and everyone resumes what they were doing.
I turn to Violet, "I'm going to ask Mr. Winters to dance. See you two on the dance floor," I set my glass on a table and turn, eyeing down Mr. Winters.
I walk towards Mr. Winters, standing next to Hunter.
"Would you like to have a dance with me, darling?" I say with a smile. He grins at me as I see his hand move in his pocket, sending the vibrator to work faster as he takes a sip from his glass of champagne, watching me put on a smile as I wait for his reply.
"I don't dance, but you go ahead and dance. I'll stay here and watch," Motherfuc- I put a fake smile on.
"Okay. I guess I'll dance without you," I turn around, looking at the dance floor.
"I'll dance with you, Evangeline," I turn back around, hearing Hunter's voice. I look at Hunter holding out his free hand. I look at Mr. Winters, seeing his eyes narrow and jaw clenched. I look at Hunter.
"How could I refuse?" I hold out my hand, hover it over his, and look at Hunter, "A chance to reject you," I quickly move my hand and smile at Hunter as Hunter's smile fades.
"You think I want to dance with you after what you've done? Please, you must be delusional," I say, looking at him pitifully.
I turn around and take a breath of relief as the vibrator slows down. I eye Charlotte down, who's dancing with one of Mr. Winters's men. I walk to her, hearing her fake laugh while the guy is talking to her.
"Don't mind me. I'm just stealing your dance partner," I say to the man as I grab Charlotte's hand and pull her away while she's laughing.
"Couldn't resist dancing with me, could you?" Charlotte says as we hold hands and dance to the music.
"You know I can't resist dancing with you. I think we're dancing the wrong way. Who the hell is leading?" I ask.
"We are? I thought you were leading," Charlotte says as we bump into someone else.
"Sorry!," I say to the other people. I look at Charlotte, "Why the hell would I be leading?!" Charlotte rolls her eyes.
"Because you're bossier, duh," She says sarcastically. I roll my eyes.
"Fine. I'll lead," I put my left hand on Charlotte's waist, pulling her close to me.
"Damn, if you wanted me that bad, then we could go to one of the rooms in the house," Charlotte says teasingly. I roll my eyes.
"I'm only doing it-" My eyes widen, and my left leg gives out as I feel the vibrator go faster, interrupting my words.
"Are you okay?!" Charlotte says worriedly. I clear my throat from trying to moan.
"I'm okay," I squeal out, "Cramps are getting to me bad," I say, still leaning down.
"Come on, hun. Let's go inside and get a set," Charlotte holds my hand as I'm leaning down, barely able to walk, while walking with her past Mr. Winters.
I give Mr. Winters an angry glare and mouth the words "You bitch," as he just sips his champagne while grinning, enjoying every second of it. I see a glance of Hunter's baffled face as he looks at Mr. Winters and me. Charlotte opens the sliding back door, leads me into the house, and leads me to a chair at the dining table.
"Here, hun. Take a seat and rest while I get you a warm towel," Charlotte turns and walks to the sink.
I sit down, feeling the pressure of the vibrator go deeper. I squeal and quickly stand up. Charlotte turns her head and looks at me.
"You okay?" Charlotte asks, and I nod my head. I hear the sliding door slam open.
"Eve?! Are you okay!?" Violet says worriedly with a panicked look. Great. Now, I have to deal with her.
"You guys, I'm okay. Seriously, you two. I'm okay," Violet closes the sliding door and walks to me, putting her hand on my stomach. She lifts my dress and puts her hand on my lower stomach.
"The baby feels fine," She says, and I roll my eyes.
"Get your hand out of there!" I say while she slides her hand down to the top of my vagina and quickly removes it from out of my dress.
"Evangeline, what the fuck is that?!" She asks, holding her hand disgustingly.
"It's.. uh- It's a vibrator," I say, looking away and rubbing the back of my neck. Charlotte whips her head at me.
"A WHAT?!" Violet yells.
"Damn, even when pregnant, you're a freak," Charlotte says as Violet walks quickly to the sink, deep washing her hands. I roll my eyes.
"Why the fuck do you have a... inside you right now?!" Violet says, scrubbing her hands. I sigh.
"Because, like I told you on the phone call, it's Mr. Winters's week where I'm his little "pet," and his bright idea was for me to wear a vibrator while I attend the party with him," Violet turns around, drying her hands on a towel.
"You mean to tell me you've had it in this whole time? I almost fucking touched that thing!" Violet says, furious. I roll my eyes.
"Mr. Winters turned it on as soon as he opened the door. Plus, It's not my fault you wanted to touch my vagina without permission," Violet rolls her eyes.
"I was checking the baby, not trying to fucking feel-" She stops her words and looks behind me.
Confused as to why she stopped yelling at me, I turn my head to look behind me, and my heart drops.
