Off Limits, Brother's Best Friend Chapter 181
Chapter 181: Don't Let Me Murder Someone
Callan
“I am friends with Cammy.” The girl said, pointing behind me at a girl I grew up with. Another mafia princess, I don't remember this chick but I fucked a lot of women this past year, so they tend to blend together. When she realized I was clueless to who she was, she just said her name, Emily.
No but that didn't ring a bell. I checked her out one more time and weighed my options here. I will talk to her for a minute, so I got her a drink and let her flirt a little bit. It fucking annoyed me when my attention wandered because of the voice almost directly behind me.
“Come on, Bryce, you said you wanted to get drunk with your baby sister. Don't be a bitch now.”
I could hear Brianna was amused, I don't think she even realized it but she and I were almost back to back. I glance over my shoulder to see a group of them pouring shots and clinking glasses. Emily said something but I had missed it.
“Sorry, I couldn't hear you.” I lied, and then I heard the giggles.
She was laughing with someone, I didn't want to look back a second time, so I tried listening for any other voice I recognized. Too many people were talking at once for me to tell, when I saw blonde hair, I knew my sister was beside her. Why did that just calm me down? Fucking hell, Callan! Then I heard the third voice.
“I can't drink too many of these or I don't think I will be able to keep my hands off you, Brianna. You look so fucking good, your brother will beat my ass but fúck, you look so good.” Roy Vortex reiterated.
Bryce would beat his ass and if he didn't, maybe someone else would. Maybe they would corner him in the bathroom and smash his face into the sink. Who knows, anything could happen.
“Callan,” I heard the girl in front of me huffing at me. My eyes snapped back to her.
I know I was being a dick but I have no idea what that girl was just saying again. Why is Brianna standing behind me? Get the fuck away from me, I gritted my teeth and quickly excused myself from the girl's presence. I went right over to Angelo who was flirting with a girl but he looked at me and did a double take.
“What is it?” He asked me outright.
“Don't let me murder Vortex tonight.” I told him.
“Which one?” He asked me, seeing as there were plenty of Vortex men and some women here tonight. We all hang out in the same group since the mafia likes keeping a tight circle. I am buddies with Hannah's brother, always have been.
“Who the fuck do you think?” I looked flatley at my cousin.
“Roy,” I muttered and he realized he asked a stupid question.
“Did he say anything?” He asked me.
“Just don't let me murder him tonight.” I reiterated.
I am not repeating what he said to her. Why am I even acting like this? I hated this fucking girl, it is what I said to her, right? Brianna Fletcher doesn't matter to me.

Brianna POV
My brother was having the time of his life tonight, he was in such a good mood so he kept making us all take short and have a good time. A bunch of us went off and started dancing, I wouldn't let myself look in whatever direction Callan would be in. If he was looking left, I would be looking right and I made sure of it. A bunch of girls were dancing in a group but Roy was watching me with his eyes closed. He kept biting his lips while he watched me sway my hips for him.
“He wants to come over here so badly.” Jane whispered into my ear with a mischievous grin.
“He won't, not with Bryce here.” I shook my head.
“Should I be offended that Callan doesn't even give a shit who dance with? He would be more upset about you.” She paused at her last statement and apologized for even saying that.
“It is okay, he is doing his thing. So I will do mine.” I thumbed behind me at Callan surrounded by not one but four different women right now all fighting for his attention. She pressed her lips together at the sight.
“It is good he isn't stopping you because Aaron is super into this, go.” I nudged her back to the man she was just dancing with previous to this.
The mischievous grin returned to her and she went back over to him. Yes, he wants so badly, I can see it in his eyes. My best friend is gorgeous and fun and amazing, so I can't see why he wouldn't be all over her while he has the chance. When I felt a hand on my hip, I glanced over my shoulder and couldn't fight the amused smirk when I noticed it was Roy.
“Oh, you aren't worried about Bryce anymore?” I called him out for his distance from me.
“Honestly, I am risking it, sweetheart. I want to dance with you.” His hands came to my waist to pull me to him. He is damn brave for this, I wasn't expecting it .
They were playing all great dance music, so it wasn't hard to just start up dancing again. This time with Roy's hands on my hips and our body's lightly brushing over me another once in a while. I wasn't grinding yet or anything, though I was feeling tipsy and kind of wanted to. Anything to distract me from looking back at the posse in front of him. I won't let myself be upset again, I won't. He regrets me, he hates me. It is enough fuel to get me through this.
Roy pulled me against him and our faces were close but he didn't make any moves beyond dancing. His eyes were looking down at my very revealed chest right now.
“You don't understand how you look.” He shook his head at me, I bit my lip and looked at him.
“Then why don't you explain it to me.” I challenged him, he smirked and it brought my attention to his lips again. They aren't bad hips, they have a shape to them and look soft. He put his mouth against my ear while never stopping our dancing and started whispering to me.
“You look stunning, sexy and like a goddess, Brianna. You draw every man's eyes to you, including mine.” He became smooth as he often does, he pulled away enough to view my expression and smirked when he saw I was pleased.
“I will work to keep your attention on me if I have to, these idiots don't deserve you.” He winked.
“Oh, and you do?” I arched my brow, I am tipsy and bold.
“I don't but that never stops me, darling.” He gave me that troublemaker's grin he is so good at doing. It made me laugh a little bit but I also like his antics, his words and I know he uses them on all girls but he is so good at it. He makes you feel like you are the only one he is saying it to and it is fun.
I am not taking it seriously in a way that I have in the past, I don't care that Roy flirts with everyone and that is why I can have fun with it. I don't want to feel the way I felt when Callan walked out of my life, I won't let someone do something like that to me again. I don't like giving men power over me, I don't like giving them the power to shatter me. I have done it enough, this is nice and light and fun.
“I would think it would be, Roy Vortex.” I muttered, I don't know why but I like saying his name.
“Gosh, you make my name sound fucking good.” He groaned into my ear.
Wherever my brother is, he hasn't noticed us yet or he doesn't care. I would be surprised if he doesn't care, he was so dead set against me and his best friend. Maybe because he knew how Callan would be with me but maybe he doesn't care if Roy Vortex tries with me. Maybe he finds him harmless, who knows? I slowly turned around until my backside was pressed to his front. We started moving to the music and his face was dipping down beside my head, so I could feel him breathing sometimes on my neck.
“Look at this motherfucker.” I saw a couple of guys pointing at me and Roy. It was his buddies and they had the biggest grins on their faces.
“You got fucking ball, Roy.” One of them said, shaking his head at him. He never removed his hands from my hips but he did lift his head to speak to them.
“Would you say no to this?” He nuzzled my neck for a second time playfully. His friends looked around and then back to us
