A low, sated hum rose from Kaylan’s throat as he snuggled a bit closer. “Watch it. I might never leave.”

“This might surprise you, but that threat doesn’t scare me.”

Kaylan twisted in my arms enough to gaze over his shoulder at me. “Does this mean we’re going out on another date? You weren’t agreeing to a second date just so you could fuck me?”

A wide grin spread across my lips. “Definitely not. I would love to go out with you again.”

Sighing, Kaylan settled back on the pillow. “Me too. I hate to admit it, but my boss picked me a winner. Best date that never should have happened.”

Yes, it really was.

KAYLAN

Arden wastrue to his word.

After sex, there was food, anime, and a blowjob on the couch.

A quick glance out the window revealed that the snow was still falling. We could see the road clearly, but Arden declared it wasn’t safe for me to drive home and offered to share his bed with me.So generous.

Naturally, getting ready for bed meant being fucked on the stairs.

Just as we were settling in, I remembered I was supposed to text Sebastian and Byron that I was home safe.

Shit.

I was safe, but not home.

“I’ll be right back,” I muttered as I slid out of Arden’s cozy embrace and rolled over to pull my phone off the charger.

“What’s wrong?” Arden’s voice was growing groggy and low, as if he were half-asleep already.

“Nothing. I just need to text my boss. He wanted me to text when I got home safe.”

The sexy man stretched under the blankets and chuckled. “Gonna tell him you’re still stuck in my clutches?”

“I have to.”

Rolling toward me, Arden wrapped an arm about my waist and pulled me onto the bed before I could set a toe on his cold hardwood floor. “Stay. It’s just texting. The house is old and drafty. Stay where it’s warm.” His words grew more muffled as he pressed his face into my shoulder and gathered the blankets around me.

How the hell was I supposed to argue with that? I was a strong man, but I didn’t want to meet the person strong enough to walk away from a warm, cuddly lover and into a cool house.

I’m safe. Thank you for arranging for me to meet Arden.

I paused, still holding the message app open to make sure that it properly sent to both Sebastian and Byron. There was no way my boss was watching for my text, but Byron was always on top of everything. I half expected to see a reply from him.

Two seconds passed and the three dots appeared, indicating that someone was typing.

Safe as in home? Or safe as in you’re still wrapped up in Arden’s arms?

“Holy shit!” I lurched upright and couldn’t stop myself from looking around the room. Did Sebastian have a camera in here? Had he been able to hack my phone?

“What’s wrong?” Arden asked. He sat up next to me, his arm tightening as if preparing to protect me from an invisible intruder.

“Look what my boss sent!” I turned the screen toward him so he could read the message.

A loud bark of laughter erupted from his throat, and he fell onto the mound of pillows built against the headboard. “He knows you damn well.” Arden shifted in the bed, lying down and pulling the thick blankets up to his chin.
