“I can’t believe I let you do that…especially out in the open.” It would have only taken one person to see us and I’m sure word would have gotten back to Reece. Hopefully we were quiet enough.
“I enjoyed it.” She licks her lips.
“When we get back to the apartment, I’m going to return the favor.” I smile down at her. “I’m going to strip us naked, spread you out on the bed as my own private feast, and then I’m going to put my mouth all over you. My beard is going to feel so good between those spread thighs.”
She squirms against me as her eyes heat before I see worry floating around in her deep irises. “Tell me,” I ask.
“What’s really going to happen after the holidays?”
My heart thuds heavily at the question and I hope my answer is what she wants to hear. “When we go back to college, I want you to move in with me. You’re my girl, Robin. Mine. Which means I’m yours.” I cup her face between my hands. “I love you very much, and I fell hard the minute I saw you. I can’t explain it, but there you have it. I love you.”
I’m not sure Robin realizes that she holds my happiness in her hands and I’m hoping going out on a limb that she’ll reciprocate.
Tears hover in her eyes before she wraps herself around my neck and softly cries. I really don’t want to believe that she’s crying because she can’t give me what I want, and I pray that I’m not the one fighting tears.
Her tears softly become sniffles as she whispers, “I love you. I fell in love with you at school when I kept saying no when I really wanted to say yes.” She offers me somewhere in between a laugh and a cry. “I love you, so yes, I’ll move in with you.”
My arms tremble as I hold her close. “Thank fuck,” I hiss as she seals her mouth over mine.
Jace & Savannah
Jace
My face and hands are cold, but the body lying against me keeps the rest of me warm. I never expected to get snowed in at my brother’s roadhouse, with or without my wife. But lying here with Savannah in my arms, I can’t take my eyes from her.
&nb
sp; She has given me the life that I’d given up on so long ago. Threading my fingers through her fiery long hair my heart thuds heavily in my chest. My wife is the most amazing woman I’ve ever met, and every day I thank God for giving me a second chance with her. Our road hasn’t been easy, but it was a road worth traveling to have Savannah and the kids.
My heart often aches when I watch her, and she always feels my eyes on her. She would turn and smile. The happiness she feels always clear on her face.
The light from the moon had appeared not too long ago, so I can make out her sleeping features. The light freckles over the top of her cheeks and the bridge of her nose makes me smile. She isn’t too keen, but I love kissing them, and often tell her that they taste like cinnamon sugar.
I dip my head now and trace along her cheekbone to the corner of her mouth. Her lips twitch before I feel her hand curve around the back of my neck. “I didn’t mean to wake you,” I whisper.
“You know I don’t mind you waking me.” Her husky voice goes straight to my groin. Her deep laugh causes me to growl. “I forget where we are.” She moves against me to a more comfortable position.
“I’m not making love to you here. I refuse to be in the same group as my brother.”
Savannah raises a brow.
I offer a small smile. “I think we’re the only couple not to have had sex within the walls of Kix.”
Her eyes widen before she starts giggling. “Really?”
“Yeah,” I drawl, and join in with her chuckle. “Ryder told me all about it.”
“Um, he did?”
My grin widens. “Savannah,” I press a kiss to her amused lips, “he didn’t go into detail. Just that the place brings out the horny fuckers, as he liked to call them.”
Savannah shakes her head. “Well, there is a shower with our name on it once we get back to your parents’ place, so don’t go getting ideas while we’re here.”
“The only idea I’m getting is that I want you up here so that I can reach those delicious red lips.” There’s no harm in a bit of foreplay, as long as it stays that way.
I really don’t want to risk Savannah being caught without her clothing because I can’t control the urge to feel her nude body against mine.
“This better?” she questions as she moves to face me.
