Thane slanted his head, his tongue sliding along the seam of Levi’s lips until he opened, and let him slip inside. Had they been alone, Levi would have taken full advantage of this moment, but they weren’t—not really—and he reluctantly pulled away. “I love you.”
“I love you, too.”
Jason came through the door. “I don’t want to rush you two along, but my next appointment’s here.”
“Come on, baby. Let’s go home.”
Chapter 28
That night, the music thumped while Levi gyrated enticingly against Thane. Being the owner of Reservations had its perks. His reserved table was right off the dance floor, not in the VIP section, and as far as he was concerned, it was the best table in the house. Thane held Levi’s glass as Levi took a drink from his celebratory martini and continued to move; his guy never lost his groove as he swallowed the gulp down.
Thane handed the empty glass over to Jason, who was there with them, celebrating their victory. With nefarious intent, Thane lifted the hem of Levi’s shirt, pulling it over his lover’s head, tossing that in Jason’s direction too. Levi turned and backed his perfectly round bouncing ass against Thane’s rigid cock then looked back over his shoulder, giving him that tipsy, irresistible grin. Man, he was so in love.
He kept the beat, moving in time with Levi even as Chase came forward, abandoning his tables to begin dancing with Levi, effectively sandwiching Levi in between the both of them. There was a split second of jealousy that soon died as the cheers of the tables around them started, and Levi turned in his arms, pressing himself head to toe against Thane before kissing him. His guy wasn’t the least bit interested in the other waiter. Chase didn’t seem to care; he kept moving like a trained dancer to the delight of the entire room.
“Wanna break, handsome?” Thane yelled.
“Yeah and some water. You’re getting me drunk,” Levi yelled back, already moving from his arms to go back to the table. The club was in rare form tonight. They were packed full, which was nothing new. Much to Julian’s dismay, Thane had just ordered the entire club a round of Redheaded Slut. A shot he’d chosen in honor of his mister. Levi had laughed about the name, but leaned in when no one was paying attention and promised to show him exactly how slutty he could be when they were alone. Thane was so looking forward to that promise he’d almost taken Levi back to the room early.
They were having too much fun and had partied so much tonight. The club members thought it was their new status as life-partners they were celebrating. For Thane it was so much more. They were free of all the ties that bound them.
This afternoon, Thane officially became part of the family. He, Levi, Luke, and Logan all sat down for their first family meeting, unanimously agreeing to forgo the on-campus apartment, and move straight into Thane’s new home in Ellicott City.
They planned to move the Silva brothers out of their home in San Diego next week. Thane wasted no time in having Jenna purchase all their airline tickets to Maryland the afternoon of Logan’s last day of class. That had earned a tearful Alison a night out with Logan. Thane pulled some strings, giving the young couple the VIP treatment at Castelli’s by themselves tonight. Luke was happy to stay at home on the new gamer laptop Thane had impulsively purchased after leaving the attorney’s office. Luke needed something special of his own.
Thane had finally gotten his guy and had two new brothers in return. Thane wrapped an arm around Levi’s waist as he scooted up to the table, gulping down the cold water that had been left behind. When Thane kissed Levi on the shoulder, his guy stopped drinking, instinctively offering the drink to him. It was a sweet gesture; he took the glass and finished the water.
“You need to get out there and dance,” Thane yelled across the table to Jason.
“I’m not the dancing kind.”
Chase obviously heard the exchange, or watched Jason’s resistance, and immediately came over, gyrating in front of Jason before pulling him right off that chair.
“Come on, Daddy Bear. You’re dancing tonight,” Chase said matter-of-factly, refusing to take no as an answer.
It took a little more prompting, but Jason did get out there on the floor, and he wasn’t half bad.
Thane ran his fingers through Levi’s hair, drawing his redhead’s face back so he could lean in and kiss him, first a simple brush of the lips that lingered then turned X-rated. That was Levi’s fault. Levi kissed him like he had a right to be there. Thane always lost his mind when Levi dominated him. It wasn’t until he was knocked in the arm that he broke from Levi to see Julian placing two fresh glasses of water in front of them. It kind of pissed him off. Water wasn’t enough reason to interrupt such a kiss…until his club manager stepped aside and he saw Linda standing there.
