Sweat runs between my breasts as I nod and catch my breath. “I am.”
He rises onto an elbow and hooks two fingers underneath my chin, turning my head and bringing my eyes to meet his.
It reminds me of the first night we spent together in the hotel at the retreat. The first night he kissed me. The first night he buried his body inside mine like this while he held me by the throat and fucked me.
It seems kind of fitting that we should lie like this now, after all we’ve been through together since that first night.
“I love you.” He catches the corner of my mouth in a kiss as I sigh against his lips.
“I love you too.”
His hot chest presses against my back as we hold each other.
Yip.
I freeze.
“Reed? I thought you said you gave her the chewy bone toy?”
“I did.” He sinks his nose into my hair and inhales.
“But that usually keeps her occupied for ages.”
Yip, Yip.
“She’ll go back to it. Just leave her.” He kisses the dip of my neck beneath my ear. “I’ve still got plans for us this afternoon. And they include not leaving this bed.”
Yip. Yip.
“Maybe she needs a pee.” I chew my bottom lip.
“I took her before we came upstairs.”
“Maybe she needs another.” I turn my face to where Reed is kissing my shoulder, his hands cupping my breasts as he plays with my nipples.
“You’re going to make me leave paradise to go check, aren’t you?”
When I don’t answer, he groans and presses another kiss to my skin.
“Okay. I’ll go check on her.”
Reed
“Go on, then. Take a piss.”
I stand out in the middle of the lawn, dressed in hastily thrown on sweatpants and a t-shirt as Red stares up at me with puppy eyes.
“Don’t look at me like that. Do you know what you interrupted?”
She tips her head to one side as she sits on the grass and stares at me.
“No.” I reach down and lift her up onto all fours again. “It’s piss time. Do it so I can go back inside and get back into bed with Mommy.”
Her furry bottom drops back down to the grass and she stares at me.
“All that fucking yipping inside, you’d think your bladder was about to explode. Now stop jerking about and take a damn piss.” I huff, crossing my arms.
Red gets up and starts sniffing the grass.
