Ashlyn

The club wasn’t far from the restaurant so we walked the 5 minutes. The couples were all paired up while I walked behind them. Watching the busy city, the snow was lightly falling. I purposely walked slower. I got all dressed up to not even be noticed. Well, I did get noticed, but not by the person who I wanted to notice me. Or did I even want to be noticed? I wasn’t ready to move on after Ian, so why did I care so much about who Mason was with?

Walking up to the club, there was a line outside, but the girls just walked right up to the bouncer. Of course, they would know him, or maybe it was the guys that did. I was about to follow them in when I heard my name being yelled out from the line. I looked over at the bouncer and he looked surprised and started talking into his earpiece. I was scanning the line until my eyes landed on Donny, one of my uncle’s friends.

“Donny?” I asked him, surprised.

“You know it, buttercup.” He winked while walking over to give me a hug. It was so nice to see a familiar face. Donny was a very handsome man, with dark hair and eyes. He was built due to all his training as a warrior. He had this whole bad boy thing going for him.

The bouncer leaned over to me, “Miss. Knight, we have a VIP room ready for you.” Donny looked at me with furrowed brows. But I was also confused.

“Excuse me?” I turned to ask him.

“Please, just follow this hostess with your guest, Miss Knight.” He pointed to a woman by the door. I noticed my party had already entered the club. I turned back to Donny.

“You coming?” I asked him, determined to have some fun or maybe to just get drunk.

“Hell yes!” he exclaimed. He motioned for his party to come over. Most of them were guys, but there were a couple of girls.

I thanked the bouncer and followed the hostess into the club. Donny was beside me. His group followed behind us. I saw the guys dancing on the dance floor with their girls. I locked eyes with Mason, but instantly turned away. I don’t know why it bothered me so much to see him with someone else.

The hostess led us upstairs to a private room. It had security standing outside the doors. We entered, and it was beautiful. Built in loungers surrounding a fire pit, and they had waterfall walls surrounding the sitting area. Everything was white and sparkly.

The hostess was taking everyone’s order before we went to sit down. There was already champagne on ice for us. When the hostess came to ask me what I’d like, I just ordered a bottle of tequila. Donny raised an eyebrow, smirking at me. After the hostess left, we sat down and Donny sat beside me with his arm up on the back of the couch.

“So, Miss Knight, would you like to explain the VIP treatment?” He laughed. Everyone was looking at me curiously.

“Oh Donny, I’m super important.” I told him, overly sweet, while batting my eyelashes at him.

“Yes, you are buttercup.” He laughed. “You look beautiful, by the way.” He told me.

“Awe, Donny, aren’t you just the sweetest?” I giggled. I’ve known him for about 5 years now. He’d come over to hang out with my uncle and we would all play video games together.

Donny introduced me to all his friends. The girls were mated to some of the guys, and the others were unmated. Everyone seemed friendly, and they all thanked me for getting them into the club.

“So how do you know Donny?” asked one of the unmated guys. He was good looking, with dark short but messy hair and deep blue eyes.

“Donny here is friend’s with my uncle.” I told him. He raised an eyebrow at me.

“Uncle?” He asked, confused. I was used to this. Brad is only 10 years older than me, so it’s weird that I have such a young uncle.

“Yeah, his mate is my aunt. We are pretty close in age.” I shrugged.

“So tequila, buttercup?” Donny questioned when I poured myself a shot.

“Just shut up and take a shot with me.” I told him. I poured him a shot. I knew Donny would drink with me. The mates decided to go dancing, so I was now surrounded by six unmated, including Donny. We were about four bottles in when the hostess came over to ask about the party that left me at the door. I guess they wanted permission to enter the VIP room. I nodded to her to let them in and when they entered, I immediately regretted my decision.

The girls entered screeching about how beautiful this place was and giggling. I just rolled my eyes and took another shot. I was trying to numb myself with the alcohol. Too bad it takes forever for werewolves to get drunk on human stuff.

I made some of the introductions while Donny helped with the others. The hostess poured everyone a glass of champagne. And they all sat down with us.

“So who do we get to thank for all of this?” Madison asked all sweetly. Liam sat beside her with his arm around her. Mason was sitting with one of the girls and I couldn’t even remember her name, but she was all cuddled into his side and I just couldn’t take it.

The guys all pointed to me to answer Madison’s question, and I downed my champagne. Madison’s eyes went wide, the same as her girlfriends.

“Her?” She pointed at me.

I rolled my eyes and stood up to walk out. I didn’t even bother to excuse myself. fk this and fk them. I should have told them all to f**k off. I walked out of the room and was immediately greeted by our hostess, whose name was Julie.

“Miss Knight, can I help you?” She asked.

“Yeah, why am I being treated like this?” I asked with curiosity.

“Miss Knight, you own this club.” She answered, confused. Of course, I owned the club.

“Oh right, of course.” I tried to play it off. “Where’s the washroom? I asked, changing the subject. She pointed in the direction of the washrooms and I thanked her.

After I was done using the washroom, I just stood in front of the mirror, looking at my reflection. I was never one to get jealous, but with Mason, I can’t help but compare myself to the girl on his arm. But I also couldn’t bring myself to act like her. I wasn’t some airhead bimbo. I finally walked out to find Mason leaning up against the wall outside the washroom doors. It surprised me to find him out here. He was sporting his resting b***h face.

“Mason?” I asked.

“So you and Donny?” He growled. And I crossed my arms over my chest.

“And you with what’s her name?” I challenged. And he snorted.

“I’m being nice, for Liam’s sake.” He tried to explain.

“Oh, so that means you have to ignore me? Why did you guys even invite me out if I was going to be the 7th wheel?” I asked him, frustrated.

He moved away from the wall and started to stalk towards me. I backed away until he had me caged in between his body and the wall, his hands on either side of my head. He was staring down at me while I glared up at him.

“I didn’t know about the other girls,” he said calmly. I let out the breath I didn’t realize I was holding in.

“Donny and I are just friends. He’s good friends with my uncle, and I’ve known him for the last 5 years.” I breathed out. I don’t even know why I was explaining myself to him. I wasn’t on the dance floor grinding up against him. He surprised me by wrapping an arm around my waist and pulling me into his body. I braced myself with my hands on his chest. He still had a hand on the wall behind me.

“Mason….” And before I could finish what I was saying, he crashed his lips into mine. The kiss was hungry and needy. I couldn’t help moving my hands up to his neck. A fire had ignited in my body. All I could think about was him. I pulled him closer to me and ran my tongue over his bottom lip. He pushed his tongue into my mouth, deepening the kiss. The tingles on my lips and the sparks on my tongue where our skin touched was heating up my core. I could feel my p***y pulsating, wanting his touch.

His tongue fought with mine until he pulled away, resting his forehead on mine. We were both panting, my lungs were screaming for oxygen. What the hell just happened? My brain was foggy, and the room was spinning. I closed my eyes and felt my knees buckle. I could hear Mason calling my name, but I couldn’t answer him. His voice faded until I couldn’t hear him anymore and I fell into darkness.
