I roll onto my back, wincing from the pain in my shoulder. “I want those things too.”
He brushes his soft lips over my collarbone. “You don’t have to move a muscle. Let me help you feel.”
I breathe out on a heavy exhale when he slides down my body, nestling his shoulders between my legs.
He parts me with his fingers. That lightest touch ignites something deep inside of me. I moan. “Dylan, please.”
“You’re so fucking beautiful.” His tongue skims my cleft. “I love you so much.”
“I love you,” I whisper in a breathy moan.
I tangle my fingers in his hair as he takes me with his mouth.
Chapter 52
Dylan
“Dylan Colt.” I hold out a hand to the man because I’m a decent human being, and I can’t exactly tell him to go straight to hell with Eden and another woman looking on.
“Hey, buddy.” Chet Richmond ignores my hand and goes all in for a full-on hug.
I let him take it where he needs to because Eden is beaming like sunshine.
The guy has some strength in his arms. When he finally lets me go, he gives me a quick pat on the cheek with his palm.
I swear to fuck it’s almost as hard as a slap. I consider lifting my hand to his face to return the favor, but I step back and wrap my arm around Eden’s shoulder.
She’s mine, dude. Back the hell off.
That’s the intended meaning of my actions.
I think the message got lost somewhere because Chet does the same with the tall blonde he’s standing next to.
“We’re getting married,” he declares.
I look down at Eden because her reaction is all I care about.
The smile on her face says it all. She’s happy. She’s genuinely happy that her on and off again boyfriend is taking the plunge with someone else.
“I didn’t even know you two were dating.” She leans forward to check out the diamond on the blonde woman’s hand.
No one has bothered to introduce us yet, so I take that small matter into my hands.
“Congratulations.” I offer her the same hand I offered her fiancé, but I take a step back so there’s no chance she’ll rush in for a hug. “We haven’t been introduced yet. I’m Dylan.”
“June Bug,” she says.
I furrow my brow because I have no idea if that’s her actual name or a nickname. Eden doesn’t flinch, and Chet’s about to shed a tear, so I go with it.
“It’s good to meet you, June.”
“Bug,” she adds.
“June works with us.” Eden looks up at me. “She started in the office about three months ago, I think.”
“Three-and-a-half,” June corrects her. “It was love at first sight.”
“Instantaneous,” Chet chimes in. “I knew it when I first saw her. She’s my forever.”
