After hitting send, I drop the phone into my lap and look over at Colton. His hand instantly slips into mine, and as he glances at me, I can’t help but feel like shit. “Sorry for slipping out of your room like that.”

He shakes his head, squeezing my hand, and rubbing his thumb back and forth. “Don’t worry about it,” he tells me. “I had the security set up with an alert. I knew you were going to go, I just hoped that you didn’t. But it’s all over now.”

“It’s all over,” I confirm. “All the threats are gone, no more Widows, no more Nic.” That thought instantly sends a pang of guilt soaring through me, but in the end, it’s where he needs to be.

“You’re going to be alright, Jade.”

“Are you sure about that?”

“I’m fucking positive.”

Christian’s reply comes in a second later and has the last piece of the puzzle finally sliding into place.

Christian - Sounds like a good fucking plan to me.

Chapter 37

Charlie flies through the air, screaming out as he curls his body into the fetal position, only to go crashing down into the pool, sending a wave of water slamming down over all of us.

Drix squeals and instantly goes in after him as Casey and Cora screech, trying to protect their hair that they just dropped a bomb on at the salon yesterday. Though if I have to be blatantly honest, their hair looks no different than how it did when they first walked in there. They seem to love it though, and that’s all that matters.

Jess steps toward the edge of the pool and instantly starts shaking off the water that drips off her arms, and I watch as Drix ducks down under the water and swims right to the edge. As Jess is distracted, Drix comes up, wraps her hand around Jess’s ankle, and yanks her into the water, sending yet another cocktail flying to the bottom of the pool. She hardly has a chance to scream before she crashes down into the water.

I can’t help but laugh as I sip on my drink, absolutely loving this day. It’s so perfect. I wish I could have had this all along. The past five months have been the worst kind of roller coaster, but at the same time, I’ve come out the other end with these new, incredible friends who I couldn’t live without. It’s just a shame that other friendships had to be tested along the way.

Two warm arms circle my waist, and before I know it, Colton’s lips are teasing the sensitive skin of my neck. “What do you think you’re laughing at?” he grumbles, his arms suspiciously tightening around me as his voice gets lower and lower.

“Don’t even think about—AHHHHH, PUT ME DOWN YOU BIG, FAT COCK-SUCKING, DICKWAD,” I screech as Colton yanks me off my feet and bounds toward the water, laughing like a freaking hyena, refusing to ease up on me.

I scream, scratch, hit, flail, trying everything in my power to free myself, but nothing stops Colton from flying through the air, sending us both out into the center of the deep end.

We crash down into the water, hopefully sending another wave of water over Jess, and we instantly swim right back up to the surface. I suck in a deep breath, more than ready to bust the fucker, but Colton is nowhere to be seen.

I glance around, my anxiety instantly coming up and sending me into a panic. Where the fuck is that little turd? I look around, unable to find him anywhere, so I do whatever any girl would in my situation; I swim as fast as I can.

Bodies start dropping into the pool from every direction, and getting away seems almost impossible. I kick my legs as fast as they’ll go, knowing he's bound to be up to something. As I finally come into the shallow end of the pool without being dragged back, I finally start to relax.

Ha. Fucker. Whatever his plan was, he missed me.

I can’t explain why that makes me feel like such a badass boss bitch, but it does, and I freaking love it.

I come up into the shallow end, and as I come up for breath, I smack face-first into a hard body and end up swallowing a mouthful of pool water as I try to gasp in surprise.

Ah, shit.

Colton looks down at me, a shit-eating grin across his face. “Looking for someone?” he questions, stepping into me as I hastily try to back up. I don’t know what he thinks he’s going to do to me, I’m already in the pool. It's not like he can throw me in all over again.

“Don’t know what you’re talking about,” I say, taking another step back.

A sparkle hits his eyes, and I scream before diving back under the water. Colton instantly comes after me, his strength in the pool like nothing I’ve ever witnessed before. He catches me in seconds, and his hands curl around my waist, twisting me until we’re swimming together.
