He understood, and for the record, he didn’t like that idea at all. He’d been‘gotten’once, and it sucked.
Gamble waited.
“Then, we find the key, and go back?” he asked. “Can we go home?”
He nodded.
“I’m happy wherever you are. That’s all that matters to me. We’re safer here, for now, but at some point,The BlackStoneGroupwill come for us. Von Donore is going to be hella pissed that your brother screwed him, and you escaped him. There will be war against you.”
Poe suspected as much.
“Is it possible for you to keep us safe while we’re here?” he asked.
Oh, what Poe didn’t realize was that he was scanning the area and hyper-alert of his surroundings to ensure just that. The Marine was always on duty.
To reassure him, Gamble lifted his chin, and captured his mouth with his. The kiss was warm, sweet, and Gamble tasted like apple.
Poe fell into it, and it wasn’t long before the man moaned in pleasure as it swamped him. Now, this was how he wanted to spend his time.
This.
Right.
Here.
Before Poe knew it, he was on his back, and Gamble was over him, making love to his mouth. The kisses were heated, and he was devouring him.
Someone knew how to kiss because each one was deliciously wicked.
Holy shit.
This was one hell of a kiss.
As Gamble distracted the man with his mouth, he focused on Poe, and how good he felt beneath him. Their bodies fit together perfectly where they needed to. Poe was smaller than him, but he felt right below him.
As for where to live, honestly, he’d set up camp in a box by the train tracks to be with him.
He was home in Poe’s heart.
Now, he just had to help heal the man and keep him safe.
Never let it be said that he wasn’t up for a little making out, because Gamble was down with it. Plus, this kept Poe busy as he was plundering his mouth.
Oh, and Poe was actively participating.
His hands were in Gamble’s hair, and he was kissing him back. The kiss had them both riled up in all of the good ways.
There was no better place to be than on that blanket, in the setting sun, as their horse munched away.
And it was peaceful.
Slowly, Gamble broke the kiss, and for the first time in his life, he felt whole.
“I love kissing you,” he admitted. “It’s the best feeling in the world.”
Poe was staring up at him.
“I mean, I can think of something better, Mate,” he added, winking. “Here’s your hint. It involves squirty cream, and not the kind in the store.”
