Bollocks.
“Fuck,” the brother that had longish hair grunted. “Definitely as nice as the back. You’re hot, baby.”
I blinked at him then looked down to Ryder when he growled. “Don’t even think about it, Alec,” he warned his brother.
Alec. Damn, his name was hot, just like him.
I glanced back to Alec and saw he frowned at his brother. “I can’t play?”
“Not with this one,” Ryder stated. “She’s mine.”
And fuck me if that declaration didn’t stop my heart.
Alec groaned out loud. “You’re no fun.”
The brother who I was nervous to look at said to Alec in a deep voice, “You fucked that black haired chick with the big tits in the bathroom, why are you complaining?”
Alec looked at his brother with a raised brow. “That was a whole hour ago. I’m bored now that Dominic isn’t fighting.”
Dominic. Shit, their names suited them to a tee.
Dominic lifted his hand to his swollen eye and rubbed his tender flesh before he dropped it and grinned at Alec. “I heard her screaming ‘Elec’ from outside the bathroom. You didn’t correct her?”
Alec snorted. “I was balls deep, she could have called me Barney the Dinosaur and I’d have answered her.”
I laughed at that, and it drew everyone’s attention. The white haired brother tilted his head as he stared at me, his eyes raking over me leisurely. “What’s your name?” he asked when his gaze locked on mine.
Shit, he sounded eerily like his twin.
“Branna,” I said lowly.
All four brothers leaned in trying to hear me, but when I didn’t repeat it they looked to Ryder who said, “Branna.”
The white haired brother smiled, and the hands on Ryder’s shoulder instinctively flexed. No one should possess a smile that alluring. No. One.
“Nice to meet you, Branna,” he said, bowing his head. “I’m Damien.”
He jabbed his finger to his left. “This is Dominic, the perv is Alec, and that guy glaring at you is Kane.”
Kane. I flicked my eyes to the menacing looking Slater brother and bit down on my lower lip. Oh, yeah, he looked like a Kane. Sexy, mysterious and downright terrifying.
“Am I glaring at her?” Kane asked Alec, his brows furrowed.
Alec nodded. “Just a little bit.”
Kane sighed and looked back to me. “I don’t like crowds.”
I didn’t know why he said that, so I just continued to stare at him. He sighed, again, deeply. “If I glare, stare or seem pissed at you, I’m not, I’m pissed at everyone else. I don’t like crowds,” he repeated.
Oh, he was explaining his tenseness.
I nodded. “It’s cool, I won’t hold it against you.”
I could have sworn his lips twitched, but I wasn’t sure. “Thanks,” he said and glanced to Alec who was grinning at me.
Ryder sighed from underneath me. “Can you four go away now?”
“No,” Kane almost growled. “You said we could leave after Dominic fought. He fought and won so can we leave now?”
Damn, he wasn’t lying; he really didn’t look like he enjoyed being here.
Ryder looked to Dominic. “You fought?”
“And won.” He nodded.
I looked down to Ryder and caught his frown. “I didn’t hear the bells, or cheering. I actually didn’t hear a damn thing.”
Damien snorted. “I wouldn’t hear anything other than the beat of my own cock if Branna was on my lap either.”
I don’t know why, but I dramatically gasped.
“You dirty little bastard,” I said, shocked.
I wasn’t prepared for the burst of male laughter that followed my insult, nor was I fully ready to see the five brothers smile. What I really wasn’t ready for was to see Kane smile. My God, I didn’t know who was better looking of the five of them—well, I was sitting on my preference—but Kane won the award for best smile. It was stunning, and transformed his entire face.
“I apologise,” Damien said to me, still chuckling.
I eyed him. “You shouldn’t say stuff like that around women... or girls. How old are you?”
He didn’t break eye contact with me as he said, “Eighteen.”
He was a baby!
“My baby sister is almost eighteen.” I gulped.
Dominic grinned at me. “Is she as hot as you?”
I blinked. “She’s beautiful.”
Dominic’s eyes gleamed. “Maybe I’ll get to meet her if Ry lets you stick around.”
Let’s me stick around, I silently repeated. What did that mean?
“Not if I meet her first,” Damien said, nudging Dominic with his shoulder. “I call dibs.”
Dominic glared at his twin. “You don’t even know what she looks like, you can’t call dibs unless we see her at the same time. That’s the deal.”
They had a deal about dibs?
Damien jabbed his thumb in my direction. “If she looks like her, I’m calling an early dibs.”
Dominic narrowed his eyes. “Fine, whatever. She’s probably not even that hot.”
I glared at the pair of them. “She is beautiful, and hot, and everything in-between you little shites. Don’t talk about me sister like that unless you wanna go a few rounds with me. I’ll put you on your back before you could blink.”
Dominic’s jaw dropped while Alec and Damien cracked up laughing. I looked at them, then to Kane who was smirking at me before looking down to Ryder. I felt my cheeks stain with heat, but I refused to let them get away with that kind of talk about my blood.
“I’m not sorry,” I defended. “They shouldn’t talk about girls like that.”
“You’re right, they shouldn’t.” He looked at his brothers and shot them a glare that would have frightened the knickers off of me. “Apologise.”
The twins did almost immediately, but Dominic had a grin on his face that told me he wasn’t all that sorry.
“It’s a shame you said what you did,” I said with a shake of my head. “I thought you were cute, too.”
I yelped when hands squeezed my behind. “I’m still here,” Ryder said, amused.
It was then I realised that I was still sitting on his body, and a flush attacked my cheeks. I made a motion to get of Ryder, but he blocked all of my efforts. “I have to get off you,” I whispered.
He didn’t let me go. “Why?” he asked.
I looked at his brothers, then to the rest of the people dancing and walking around the club. “Because I’m in control now,” I murmured, “not me vagina.”
