She clapped. “Good to know.”
I just want him here right now…
Memories arose of sex with Luke. That amazing, delicious moment of being inside him. The afterglow, the feel of his body on mine.
We’ll do it again soon…
I got off the stool, heading for the balcony but stopped at the open doors.
“Talk to me, Cookie.”
“Missing him.”
“I know.”
“Feeling guilty.” We’d already discussed the thing with his brother’s protection.
“I wish I could take it away.”
I moved to the big gray sofa, taking a seat. “You’re too sweet.”
“My turn to say I know.”
I snorted.
“How do you want to move forward withthatsubject?”
Holding my mug, I leaned forward, elbows on my thighs. “I’ve gotta tell him. There’s no other choice.”
“Dangerous, though.”
“Totally.”
She sighed heavily, leaning back. “Sucks.”
“Big time.”
Further discussion was interrupted by a knock on the door.
We looked at each other, both wondering who it might be.
Eden answered it. “Hello, you. Good to see you back on your feet.”
“Been a while.”
I jumped to my feet at the sound of Dane’s voice, tea spilling over my hands. He entered the room with a healthy sheen on his face, restored to his old self.
We collided in the biggest of bro hugs.
“You’re alright,” I said, crushing his muscles.
He crushed me right back. “Yes, bro. All good.”
Eden nodded proudly. “I love seeing this.”
Dane ended the hug. “What’s been going on?”
I poured him a neat scotch, filling him in.
