Lily moved her hands from her mouth and buried her face in them for a brief moment before dramatically nodding her head.

"Yes-yes-yes- YES!" She screamed as she jumped from the stool and dove into her fiancés' embrace before they could stand to their feet.

An explosion of applause and cheers echoed over the crash of the ocean waves as the eight overjoyed men peppered Lily with kisses. She couldn't control her excited laughter as her fiancés worked together to slide the ring onto her finger.

She held her hand out in front of her to admire its stunning beauty. "It's the most beautiful ring I've ever seen!" She squealed, rocking her hand back and forth, allowing the sunlight to reflect the diamonds' sparkle at different angles. "Oh my god, I love yall so much!" She squealed as she jumped back into their arms.

The sun had finally faded into the horizon. Lily panned her eyes to every person sitting with her, still in disbelief that her life, once so empty, was now full. Their time together had been spent sharing stories and conversations that left Lily holding her aching ribs as she laughed. They barely recovered from one story before the next one was told.

Yeji giggled as she brought her glass to her lips. "Did you hear about the time my fearless brother ran through the haunted house screaming like a bitch?"

Once again, everyone erupted with laughter, directed at Hyunjin, who rolled his eyes and replied "You weren't even there! How the hell would you know?"

Seungmin and Yeji shared a mischievous glance before Seungmin mischievously replied. "I may or may not have hacked the camera systems to download the footage."

"No the fuck you did not!" Hyunjin snapped, glaring at Seungmin.

Lily was able to contain her laughter enough to say, "Please tell me you still have it. I have to see it!"

"No angel. You do not." Hyunjin insisted, not taking his eyes off of Seungmin.

Seungmin nodded his head and laughed as he smuggly responded, "Oh, I most definitely did. I'll send it out later."

"You're a dick." Hyunjin mumbled to Seungmin, who winked and blew a sarcastic kiss in response, causing Hyunjin to suddenly laugh out. "I hate you." He added through his laughter.

"So Lily." Everyone shifted their attention to San. "How did you spend your previous birthdays?"

The joyous expression on Lily's face slightly faded as she took a deep breath.

Seeing the sudden discomfort, San furrowed his brows. "I'm sorry- I didn't mean to-"

Lily shook her head. "No, no. You're fine. It's ok. It's just kind of embarrassing, really."

All eyes were on Lily as she nervously laughed. "This is actually the first birthday celebration I've had."

Not knowing her history before her arrival, her friends all shared a confused look. Before any questions could be asked, Leeknow spoke up. "Well, has this birthday been celebrated to your satisfaction, sweet girl?"

Lily's smile reached her eyes as she directed her gaze to him and replied. "It's definitely been the best day ever. I can't imagine it getting better."

The subtle glances that her eight fiancés shared between each other sent a hot jolt of electricity through her veins. She tried but failed to hide the sudden blush that spread across her cheeks.

Having noticed the interaction, Wooyoung glanced at Changbin with a smirk creeping across his lips. "Well, we have a mission we need to get back and prep for. We should probably get this place cleaned up so we can get going."

JK nodded in agreement and looked at Hongjoong. "I need to send you the final plans. I'll take care of that in the morning."

"Sounds good." Hongjoong replied as he stood to his feet. "My guys- start grabbing chairs."

Yeji stood and began collecting plates, signaling her team to jump up to start cleaning. "We'll get this cleaned up and get out of your hair so preggo here can get her beauty sleep." She added, sending a wink in Lily's direction.

Lily smiled and replied as she began stacking glasses. "I can't thank yall enough for everything."

"Angel, hands off." Hyunjin demanded before the others who had noticed her could stop her.

Chan quickly added as he took the glasses from her. "You're not lifting a finger, ma'am."

"And neither are any of you." Yeji quickly interjected. "We're gonna clean up here. We don't need anything from the house, so go ahead and lock up and relax. We'll take care of the rest."

"You sure?" Han asked. "You really don't-"

JK slapped Han on the back. "Go on, Lil Quokka. We set it up- we can take it down."

After saying their goodbyes, Lily and her men disappeared into the house, leaving the others to clean.

The smile never left Lily's face as she lay in the center of the family bed surrounded by her fiancés. Once again, her adoring eyes were fixated on her ring.

Leeknow, who was lying on his side next to her, smiled. "You know, if you don't like the ring, we can take it back."

She instantly snapped her eyes to him. "I'll shove tissues down your throat."

Leeknow narrowed his eyes, and before she realized it, he had rolled over on top of her, pinning her arms above her head. "I'd like to see you try, Kitten." He seductively growled in her ear.

The seven other men watched with smirks on their faces. Their amused expressions quickly turned to shock when she locked her leg around Leeknow's waist and flipped him over, positioning herself on top of him.

Before he could react, she lowered herself and pressed her lips to his neck just below his ear. He tilted his head to the side, allowing her access to trail wet kisses to the base of his neck. A moan escaped his lips when she nibbled the sweet spot.

He felt her smirk against his skin before grinding over his growing erection. "Mm, fuck, kitten." He growled, gripping her hips and arching into her, causing her to moan in response.

"Such a pretty sound from our beautiful fiancée."
