Page 121 of Their Wicked Secrets: Untouched, Vol 5 of 6

The hope is that things will actually happen at the dance when the guys aren’t distracted with the game. But that’s not realistic. Tonight they’ll be distracted, and I’ll be away from them for part of the night, changing.

Back in the locker room. A little tremor rolls through me.

“Come on.” Caden holds the door open for us.

I drag in Luke’s soft seductive scent and just want to curl into him for the rest of the weekend. Fuck the game. Fuck the dance. Just find a place where the five of us can hole up and let this all blow past us.

Eli touches my back. “Better to get this over with, kitten.”

He’s right, and I hate that. I nod and let Eli lead me into the school. When we reach the locker rooms, Penny and Kenz stand against the brick wall. They straighten and smile at me.

“We’ve got bodyguard duties.” Kenz grins, and I settle a little more inside.

“See you on the field, little nympho.” Caden tips my chin up and kisses me like we’ll never see each other again. I fall into his kiss, clinging to his t-shirt.

When he breaks off the kiss, he smirks. “I’ll be collecting on that promise later.”

I smile back. At least tonight I’ll be surrounded by my guys. The party is at Caden’s, and that’s where we’ll be sleeping.

Eli catches my neck and lowers his mouth to hover over mine. His warm breath ghosts over my lips. Anticipation swells inside me.

“Be good, kitten.”

He claims my mouth, and everything inside me catches fire. We could have spent the hours after school doing something beyond strategizing and more self-defense training. But it was probably a smarter way to spend our time.

When he steps away, Luke draws me back into his arms. He searches my eyes. “We need some alone time, princess.”

“We had some alone time, Death.” Remembering the classroom. Tingles chase through me.

“I can’t wait for college.” He takes my lips.

I can’t wait either. We’ll be able to spend all our time together and not have to worry about parents or ex-girlfriends or jealous guys.

He presses his forehead to mine and just takes in a breath before heading off with the others into the locker room.

“It’s okay to be jealous of what you have, right?” Penny waves her hand in front of her face. “Obviously, I don’t want exactly what you have, but five guys who worship you has to be intense.”

“Now.” I blow out a breath and turn to my friends. “Now, we’re all on the same page. We didn’t start that way.”

Kenz chuckles. “Come on, we need to get you set up in the girl’s locker room.”

I stroke my hand over the dress bag draped over my arm. “What if they fuck with my dress?”

It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve owned, and I desperately want the guys to see me in it. Someone already ruined one of my dresses.

“They better not,” Kenz snarls. “That’s too far, and even the Cheermonsters have to know that.”

“Besides, we’re taking shifts.” Penny walks beside me over to the door. “All five of us will alternate until you come down. That way your dress remains in pristine condition.”

“You guys don’t have to⁠—”

“Yes, we do.” Penny sighs and opens the door. “This is your chance to be part of the high school experience. We’re not letting any bitches fuck that up.”

We walk into the locker room, and my stomach churns. My gaze darts to the laundry room. If Caden hadn’t come for me...

“Hey.” Kenz grabs my shoulders. “We’re here. No one is going to get through us to you.”

Penny checks out the locker room. “No one’s really in here anyway.”
