“What are you doing?” he asked.

“Looking for my panties.”

Oliver smirked. “You won’t need them. We’re going home.”

“Where are they?”

He patted his pocket. “A memento of our time spent.”

I rolled my eyes. “You have me and your memories. Can I have my panties please?”

“No. They’re not necessary.”

I shook my head and went to him. He helped me dress, giving my nipples a final suck before I pulled the dress over my head. When I was all tucked in, he stroked my face with his knuckles before we exited the room.

Half our friends were in the VIP section enjoying free drinks and the other half were down on the dance floor. It looked like Laura and Ivan were getting very cozy on the couch. I’d forgotten to tell her he was a player and I hoped she wouldn’t get hurt. I noticed Finley and Sadie weren’t there.

“Where were you two?” Wilmer asked with a grin on his face. I wanted to smack him because I was pretty sure he knew exactly where we were and what we were doing.

“I wanted to show Ryleigh my office,” Oliver said.

“Sure you did,” he chuckled.

“We’re leaving, but everyone is welcome to free drinks and food if you want.”

“But it’s your party,” Matthew argued.

“I’m tired, and so is Ryleigh. We have a lot to do this weekend. We need to finish the seating charts tomorrow and that will take time.”

I knew Oliver was lying. We had finished the charts the weekend before and I was glad it was finished. Everything for our wedding was completed. He had his tux, and I had my dress which was at Finley and Sadie’s apartment where we would all get dressed.

We said our goodbyes and headed down the stairs just as the rest of our wedding party was coming up. We let them know we were leaving and hurried out of the club with Brenda and Raquel in tow. They sat inside the limo while Vlad drove us home. I wished we were alone.

“Did you have a good time tonight?” Oliver asked as I rested my head on his shoulder.

“Yes, it was fun. Not as much fun as spending the night with you.”

He kissed me on the top of my head and put his arm around me. By the time we pulled up to our building, I was sleepy. Oliver helped me out of the limo, giving instructions to the security staff for the upcoming week, and we headed upstairs. The first thing I wanted to do was shower. I felt sweaty and sticky since I didn’t do a very good job cleaning myself after we had sex.

Trouble greeted us, wagging his little stump tail. I bent down to pet him, and he tried to lick my face.

“Can you let him out? I want to shower,” I asked Oliver.

“I’ll take care of it. He seems to be enjoying the grass,” Oliver replied.

A couple of weeks ago, Oliver had grass planted on part of the patio. It was thick and green. We trained Trouble to go in one spot, so his mess wasn’t all over the place. He loved to go out there and roll around. I heard the slider open as I walked to the bedroom.

The hot spray of the shower cascaded over my skin, washing away the day's grime and makeup. As I stepped out, wrapping a towel around myself, I caught sight of Oliver leaning against the doorframe. His eyes smoldered as they traveled the length of my body, igniting a familiar heat within me.

"Enjoy your shower?" Oliver asked, voice low and husky. He held out my pink robe, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth.

I couldn't help but notice he was wearing nothing but a pair of black boxers - the same ones I'd seen him take off earlier. "Did you go commando for a particular reason tonight?" I teased, raising an eyebrow.

Oliver's smirk widened. "I think you know why."

"To seduce me?" I challenged, stepping closer.

He chuckled, a deep rumble in his chest. "Sweetheart, you were ready for me long before any seduction."
