This time, he didn’t try to hide his smile. “Oh, I know that. Nat wouldn’t have introduced us if you were.”
 
 This was the first time we really addressed the fact that his little sister tried to set us up. But he wasn’t angry. Between him being okay with the fact that I had a kid and the setup, I was so damn lucky.
 
 Chapter 4
 
 Carter
 
 Iwas so glad I took Siobhan home. Despite being caught off guard about her having a kid, she was perfect. I loved her personality and the fact that she was open to old-fashioned dating.
 
 Nat would totally hold the fact that she hooked us up over me, and I hated that idea. She would demand a favor or two for the act, but in the long term, it would be a small price to pay if everything worked out.
 
 It was getting late, and I didn’t want Spencer and Siobhan to run into each other. I loved my best friend, but he was so damn extra, and over half the time, he came off like a giant asshole. Knowing him, he would try to make a joke about having athreesome or an orgy if he brought a girl home, just to see our reaction.
 
 Thankfully, he had no real intention of doing any of that, but I didn’t want to take the risk.
 
 I also didn’t want to be the prick who just asked her to my bedroom.
 
 Thankfully, we’d been inching closer as we talked. By the time the wine glasses were empty, she was within arm’s reach of me.
 
 I wanted to pull her close to my body, but I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to control myself. So it was safer to start with making out.
 
 I grabbed her glass and mine and set them down on the coffee table. Once the glasses were safe from falling onto the floor, my hands moved up her torso.
 
 I leaned in and kissed her perfectly glossed lips. They parted, and the moment her tongue met mine, I lost control. My hand found her neck as the kiss intensified.
 
 A lock of her hair brushed against the back of my hand. Damn, it was soft, which made me think she didn’t use any extensions. That meant I could give a good tug without worrying that I would pull out a weave or do some serious damage.
 
 Between the deepening of the kiss and the increasing chemistry, we couldn’t stay in the living room much longer. She was too precious to just bang on the sofa like two teenagers who couldn’t control their hormones.
 
 On top of that, she would be mortified if Spence walked in on us.
 
 I moved my hands lower to where I was holding her ass, and she hitched her legs around my torso. But before lifting her off the sofa, I needed to make sure Siobhan wanted the same thing as me.
 
 I broke apart from the kiss just enough to ask, “It’s okay that we go to my bedroom, right?”
 
 “Of course. Now don’t just stand there.”
 
 She didn’t need to tell me twice. I used my full force to spring off the sofa while I went back to kissing those delectable lips.
 
 It only took a couple of bounds to cross the living room and into the guest room, where I was staying. Once inside, I kicked the door shut and placed Siobhan on the bed.
 
 She let go of me and pulled her jersey over her head. I took the time to go back to the door and turn the lock. That way, we were sure to have some privacy tonight.
 
 I removed my shirt and tossed it in the laundry basket that Natalie insisted I use.
 
 Yeah, I was ruled by mini Carter, and I just blurted out every thought going through my head. Thankfully, it was just, “God. You’re beautiful.”
 
 Thankfully, Siobhan rewarded me with the coyest smile that told me I needed to praise her often, especially when she was in my bed.
 
 I licked my lips as I took in her beautiful breasts encased in lovely teal lace lingerie. God, she was beautiful. I reached for the back of the bra and quickly realized the clasp was in the front. The moment her boobs were free, my mouth enveloped her nipple. I loved the way she reacted to my touch when I teased her nipple with my tongue.
 
 I let my hands drift down slowly to the line of her jeggings. I couldn’t wait to see if she was a girlie who matched her underwear to her bra or if she mixed and matched. I fingered the area but didn’t want to move her pants just yet.
 
 My mouth moved down her body. Once it was right above her pants, that was when I let myself pop the button. I pushed them down and growled when I realized that for the past several hours, she had the sexiest lacy lingerie hidden under my jersey and those jeggings.
 
 “So damn beautiful,” I murmured, but I was too focused on her beautiful pussy to see if she gave me that coquettish smile like last time. Hopefully, she didn’t think I was an idiot for repeating the same compliment.
 
 Siobhan reached for my pants, and I tried not to tent forward to give her a view of my elongated penis that I so desperately wanted to push into her.
