As Dominic gets in Shane’s face, I’m too stunned to speak, thinking about what he just said. I know I’m drunk right now, but I know what I heard.

“Dude,” Shane forces a chuckle. “We’re all just here to have a good time.”

“You can have a good time without touching my wife,” Dominic growls, his voice low and menacing.

Though I’ve been struggling to keep my eyes open, they widen in surprise. I’ve never seen Dominic so upset, not even when Frank was checking out my lower leg at the hospital. But why is Dominic so upset right now? Is it because the two of them have always been competitive?

“This isn’t the reunion I was hoping for when Frank invited me,” Shane says. “I thought we could catch up or something.”

“And yet here you are, touching my wife when she doesn’t want you to.”

“Don’t be ridiculous. She didn’t say anything, so she had no problem with it. Isn’t that right?” He looks to the side and smirks at me.

“Just because my wife says nothing doesn’t mean it’s okay to fucking touch her.”

My heart starts racing as I watch Dominic’s face twist in anger, it’s definitely out of character for him to be so upset and come to my defense. Even when I tell myself he’s just acting, there’s a flutter in my chest and a strong attraction to him that I can’t explain.

“Babe, stop,” I say to him with a slurred speech in an attempt to intervene. “It’s okay.”

However, he doesn’t listen to me as he’s too busy glaring at Shane. His demeanor still has this possessiveness that makes faster
