'A peachy day' she captioned the image.
I glance back at the picture, the woman behind her has her back to the camera, her hands that are clad in lace gloves are in her vibrant red hair.
She's in a crop top that shows off her tiny waist and curvy hips, her sexy ass is in tiny denim shorts that accentuate the curve of her peach and fishnet tights cover what you can see of her thighs.
I throb in my pants and swallow, glancing away.
Fuck, she looks sexy as hell…
I give Matteo a glare, "Victoria's older daughter," I say curtly.
"Oh, your sister, huh?" He smirks. "Is she off limits?"
I know he's joking, but it doesn't sit right with me. "Yeah, and she's not my sister," I growl.
"Oh? Then why is she off limits if you don't consider her your sister?" he taunts arrogantly.
"f**k you, Mat." I stand up. "I'm going to call Dad back before I get drunk and spend the night f*****g these bombshells."
"Sounds like a plan." He raises his glass to me as I walk off with mine, his eyes fixed on the dark-haired chick on the pole.
I weave my way through the crowd, downing my glass and taking another from the bar before I reach the doors and step out. The music fades and I carry on down the hall until I reach the exit. Once the fresh air hits me, I inhale deeply. Not even realising how the smell of arousal, sweat, perfume and alcohol had mixed in there.
Glancing around, I make my way over to a low wall and scan the area on the other side. The occasional car passes by and the streetlight above me is casting enough light for them to be able to see me.
I hit the call button waiting for them to answer. It's not even on its third ring when they answer and both Dad and Sienna's faces fill my screen.
"Congratulations, Lorenzo!" they both shout in unison, making me smirk.
"I got the texts, thanks. It's just training. It was a piece of cake," I answer, taking a gulp of my whiskey.
"Well, it's a big deal when you were one of the top ones in your class, Lorenzo," Dad disagrees with me, clearly proud, and Sienna nods, her black hair bouncing.
"Yeah, and I don't really care even if you came last. I'm just happy that you're going to be back. I'm bored with having to tolerate her all alone." She scrunches her nose as she pokes her big blue eyes towards someone out of sight.
Red.
"I'll be home in three days, Pixie. You know I'm always on your team," I reply with a cocky smirk.
"Lorenzo, congratulations," Victoria says as the camera zooms out, showing the black-haired woman who is now my stepmother. She's not a bad woman, but I somehow can't get over the fact Dad moved on only a year after my mother's death. One year after losing his fated mate he moved on with ease…
"Thanks," I say, trying to squash those bitter thoughts. Tonight is mine. I'm not going to let doubts cloud my mind.
"Aurora, congratulate your brother," Victoria orders firmly as Sienna makes a gagging face as Dad turns the camera to the girl – no woman, cosied up in the armchair.
My breath catches at the sight of her side profile. Her red hair covers her face as she reads the book in her hand. She's in some tiny leather shorts and again with those fishnets… f**k.
Her legs are tucked up on the chair, crossed as she bounces her foot that hangs in the air lightly, only giving me an even better view of that sexy ass.
"Congrats," she says in her sexy, melodious voice. Damn, even her voice has changed but... her tone is anything but happy for me.
"Love you too," I shoot back, making her stick her middle finger up at me. I smirk as Victoria frowns and the camera swings back on Dad and Sienna. Both are already planning some big family trip for us to go on when I get back, but I'm unable to focus, my mind lingering on those sexy thighs.
Yeah, I need to get laid and stop thinking about my sexy-as-hell stepsister.
"Well, I'll let you guys go. I'm partying with the boys. They're waiting." I smirk.
"Oh, and where are you partying?" Dad asks.
Really?
"Probably at a whorehouse or a strip club. Right, Lorenzo?" her know-it-all voice comes.
Well, she ain't wrong.
"Jealous, Red?" I taunt her mockingly.
"Of you? Please, I'd be jealous of a piece of turd before I'm jealous of you," she scoffs.
"Aurora!" Victoria scolds.
"They're just messing around, Vic. It's fine," Dad consoles his woman.
"Yeah, well, I'm heading inside. See you guys in a couple of days." I hang up and slip the phone into my pocket before I head back inside, downing the rest of my glass.
Entering the VIP area again, I smirk as I spot that sexy brunette step off the stage, and I walk over to her.
"Hey beautiful, how much for a private show?"
"Everything's paid for…" she whispers seductively, placing her hand on my arm as her eyes trail over me appreciatively.
I curl my finger under her chin and lean in.
"Perfect then… how about you go grab a few of your girls and we head to the back?"
"Sounds like a plan, handsome," she says, biting her glossy lip.
"Make sure they're petite and curvy. I like my girls with an ass." I wink at her, watching her saunter off, my d**k throbbing in my pants.
Oh yeah… this is the life.
