Just as I’m about to say something snarky back to Shay, I see him. Rayne striding through the field like he owns the place, his jeans slung low on his hips, and his flannel shirt stretched tight across his chest. He catches my eye, and it’s like the whole world stops spinning for a second.
“Speak of the devil,” Shay whispers, nudging me.
“He’s not—” I start to protest, but it dies in my throat when Rayne walks up to us, his eyes dark and fixed right on mine.
“Evening,” he mutters, his voice low and rough as he steps close, blocking out the rest of the party like it doesn’t exist.
“Evening,” I reply, my heart thudding in my chest. God, why does he have to look so damn good?
“Enjoying the party?” he asks, his eyes dropping to my lips for just a second before flicking back up to meet mine.
“I was,” I tease, biting my lip. “But it’s looking a lot better now.”
Rayne grunts, a ghost of a smile pulling at the corner of his mouth. “Glad to hear that.”
Shay snickers next to me before standing up. “Okay, I’ll leave you two lovebirds to it.”
I glare at her as she walks away laughing, but my focus is quickly back on Rayne. He stands there for a second, looking around atthe fire, the people hanging around, then back at me. “Wanna take a walk?”
I nod, the butterflies in my stomach taking off. “Sure.”
He reaches down, taking my hand, and without hesitation, I let him help me up. His palm is warm and rough against mine, and the second we touch, it’s like a spark shoots straight through me.
We start walking away from the fire, the chatter of the party fading as we head toward the trees. My pulse is racing, my body already hyperaware of how close Rayne is, how his arm brushes against mine with every step.

Rayne
I’ve been thinking about Billie nonstop since that night at my house. The way she looked when she came, how incredible she tastes—fuck, it’s all I can think about. And now, seeing her looking all cute wrapped up in her sweater, her hair loose around her shoulders, I’m about two seconds away from dragging her into the woods and finishing what we started.
But I’m trying to be patient. Trying to keep it together.
When we reach the edge of the trees, I stop, turning to face her. She looks up at me, eyes wide and shining with excitement. I can tell she’s feeling it too, this insane pull between us. It’s been building for years, and now it’s right here, thick and heavy. Like a fucking living thing.
“I can’t stop thinking about you,” I mutter, my voice low.
Billie smiles wider, tipping up her head, her gaze hoke don mine. “Yeah?”
I nod, stepping closer, my hand reaching out to brush a strand of hair away from her face.
Her breath hitches, and I see the way her chest rises and falls a little faster. “Well, you’ve been on my mind, too.”
And that’s all I needed to hear.
I close the distance between us in two quick strides, pulling her against me, my lips crashing down on hers. She moans into the kiss, her arms wrapping around my neck, and I grip her hips, pulling her tight against me. She’s so fucking soft, her body molding perfectly to mine, and I can’t get enough.

Billie
The second Rayne’s lips are on mine, I’m gone. All the tension, all the waiting—it explodes between us, and I’m gripping him like he’s the only thing keeping me grounded. His kiss is rough, demanding, and fuck, it’s everything I’ve been wanting.
He presses me back against a tree, his hands sliding down to my ass, lifting me slightly so I’m pinned between him and the rough bark. I can feel his hard cock pressing against my thigh, and it makes me shiver, the heat between my legs growing with every second.
“Fuck, Rayne,” I gasp when he pulls back for just a second, his forehead resting against mine. “I want you.”
“Jesus, Billie,” he growls, his breath hot against my skin. “You have no idea how bad I want you.”
