My pulse raced and heart skipped a beat. Sliding my gaze from Aiden’s blazing stare over to Miles, I sucked in a breath at the intensity there. Gone was the sadness and worry; only desperate need and want flickered in his hazel eyes as he studied the way my peaked nipples poked through the thin cotton of my shirt.
“Have you felt her perfect cunt yet?”
I checked over my shoulder at Miles’s words to Aiden.
“Not yet, but if it’s anywhere close to heaven like her mouth, I have no hope of lasting.”
A delicious shiver raced down my spine at being talked about like I wasn’t here, yet everything they said stroked the broken pieces of my self-esteem that I had wondered would ever be put back together again.
“Oh, you’ll last,” Miles grunted, shifting his hips to press his hardening cock between my thighs. With only the thin towel and the soft material of my joggers between us, I felt every inch, which made my core tighten, desperate to be filled and stretched like the night before. “I won’t allow anything else.”
I sucked in a sharp breath, stomach flipping at his commanding and dark tone.
Hands gripped the hem of my T-shirt and pulled it over my head. Both men cursed at finding me bare beneath. After taking a shower, I had zero desire to put a bra back on, so here I was, nude from the waist up and very okay with being exposed to their heated gazes.
Arms wrapped around me from behind, palms engulfing both breasts and pinching the pebbled tips between two fingers.
“You ready for us, baby girl?” Miles asked while gently brushing some damp hair off my face.
I knew if I said no, both would back away and give me the space I requested. But I didn’t want fucking space. I’d had space. So much damn space that I felt alone in a crowded room before them. I was tired of space, tired of being so damn alone all the time.
“Yes.” My moaned answer vibrated around the room.
Hell fucking yes, I was game.
Today. Tomorrow. Every day we were together, yes.

AIDEN
The metal chain creaked as the wooden swing moved back and forth. Arm tossed around the back with Aspen’s head against my chest and a wide smile on her face as she watched Miles and Jubie playing off in the distance, I wondered if life could ever get better. Fingers stroking down her side, I smirked when she twitched and smacked my hand away.
“Ticklish, are we?” I asked, tone husky. Fuck, how could I want her again so soon after we just had her? But I did. Maybe I’d always have a semihard cock with Aspen in our lives.
“Maybe,” she huffed and shifted to smile up at me. “I can’t believe this is your life. You get to do this every day.” With a sigh, she went back to watching Miles and Jubie. “It’s amazing how this place makes all the stressors that weighed me down in Seattle vanish. I don’t care about social media, world news, or even next week. All that matters is soaking up the moment, right here, right now.”
“I know exactly what you mean.” Using two fingers, I brushed a few stray locks of hair away from her face. “Starting tomorrow, it’s back to work for us, though. We have two clients in the morning and one in the afternoon.” I bit my lip to keep the next words from tumbling out, but they still came despite me knowing deep down I might not like her answer. “Will you still be here when we get back?”
Aspen stilled beneath me. I held a tight breath as she swung her legs around and sat up straight, turning to face me.
“What do you mean?”
“Here at the house.” I stared into her dark eyes, getting lost in the depths. “I like you, Aspen.Welike you.” I angled my head in Miles’s direction. “I guess I’m a little afraid of what will happen if or when you walk away.”
She scanned my face, brows pulling in tight. “What are you asking me?”
I licked my lips. “For you to stay,” I rasped. “To give this a chance to be more than a fun week.”
Her lips parted, then closed.
Fuck, what was I doing? It was too soon to bring this up, even if she hinted at it on the hike, but we were running out of time. She would have to leave in only a few days, and that scared me shitless. How could I live without Aspen after knowing her?
“Just think about it. You don’t have to answer right now, but I wanted you to know.”
“Know what?”
“That this isn’t a fling for me or Miles. I knew it before, but after today…” I cleared my throat to ease the sudden tightness. “He opened up to you, Aspen. I’m not saying that you have to stay because my best friend is finally becoming more like the man I remember, but it is a big deal. It means you’re special to him.”
