If they did this again, he needed to plan better.

“Luckily, I thought ahead and moved the box from the closet into the nightstand.”

“So, your invitation wasn’t off the cuff.”

She pursed her lips for a second before her lips twisted into a naughty smile. “I mean… as soon as my mother asked if the boys could stay the weekend, I thought about how I could take advantage of an empty house.”

“By taking advantage of me.”

That smile grew blinding. “One hundred percent. I expect you to take advantage of me, too.”

“Think I just did that.”

Reaching for the drawer, she told him, “But you’re not done yet.” She removed the open condom box—open because he was the one to actually open it for the first time a week ago—and pulled out a single condom.

“Open it,” he ordered.

As soon as she ripped it open, he plucked the latex disc from inside the wrapper.

“Hey, maybe I wanted to put it on you.”

“How many are left in the box?” Unless she used some in the last week, which he doubted, ten should remain.

She made a big show of peeking into the box. “Plenty for tonight.”

“How about for in the morning?”

“Someone has some lofty ambitions. I doubt we’ll burn through what will be left.”

“Maybe. Maybe not. We’ll see.”

She wiggled her eyebrows. “I like your enthusiasm.”

He offered her the condom. With a grin, she sat up, took it and whispered, “Come here.”

He shuffled closer on his knees and when she grabbed his throbbing cock, his hips jerked. But she made short work of rolling on the condom and then inspecting her handiwork.

“Now...” she started.

“You good with me being on top?”

“Absolutely.”

“Good.” He pushed her shoulder gently and she flopped back onto the bed with a giggle.

That giggle actually made him smile.

In truth, it wasn’t just her giggle. It was everything about her.

ChapterTwenty-Six

With a groan,Nox rolled onto his side and opened his eyes.

Only to find Aaliyah gone.

So much for his plans on having sex with her again this morning.

Then it hit his nostrils.
