“God, no. I’m just ready to get back home.”

“Home?” Nik beams, his straight white teeth digging into his lower lip.

“Yeah, back to Virginia...” I give him a final kiss on the cheek before moving to buckle into the seat next to his.

“I fucking love hearing you call it that,” Nik says, lacing his fingers with mine. “Did I screw up the plans? I thought we were sticking around for another couple of days.”

“We’re giving Ben some time to come to terms with things, and we hired movers to pack up the rest of Mel’s belongings,” Miller says from the back row.

“And I figured out Mel’s pen name,” Oliver adds, spinning around in his seat with his nose in one of my paperbacks. He wiggles his eyebrows playfully. “This one is pure delicious filth. By the way, we’re totally trying the hot tub spit roast.”

“Wait, I thought all your books were single couples?” Nik asks, chuckling.

“It was my first book,” I say, trying not to blush. “I actually pulled that one down. The only place to read it is in paperback. I knew I should’ve burned that thing.”

Oliver’s eyes widen. He looks horrified as he clutches the book close to his chest. “She didn’t mean it.” He looks at me. “Don’t even joke about that kind of sacrilege.”

“Now I’mreallyinterested,” Nik says, pulling our interlaced fingers over and cupping his cock. “It was a long night without you.”

I laugh.

“By the way, you make me really fucking happy, gorgeous,” Nik says, staring straight into my eyes. His sincerity radiates through the bond.

I whimper out a quick, “Me too,” and try not to burst into tears again like a total hormonal pregnant woman.

The flight home is easy enough, and luckily I’m not sick. However, I’m beat. I know the guys have something they want to show me, but it’s going to have to wait. I’m dead on my feet.

I don’t aim for the nest, which is unusual. Instead, I crawl up into the giant bed I’ve never slept in, and Nik curls himself around my back. His hand slides from my stomach down to my pussy. Normally, I’d be good to go, but exhaustion is kicking my ass.

“Listen, I already told Oliver that I’m good with getting frisky if I’m not awake?—”

“Wait, what?” Nik interrupts, laughing.

“If you want to slip your dick inside me while I’m sleeping. I’m totally fine with that. There are four of you and it’s kind of a lot of work now that I think about it,” I grumble, pulling his hand from my panties. “Although I think I need to amend that to say, if you fuck me while I’m asleep then you better finish without waking me, otherwise, you might get an earful. I’m tired.”

“God, you’re cute.” Nik chuckles against the back of my head. “And for the record, I think I just unlocked a new kink.”

“You’re ridiculous, but I love you anyway.” I pat his hand that’s now carefully caressing my belly and promptly fall asleep.

The next morning Nik wakes me up with his cock already inside me. He’s done a fine job of getting my body fully on board, so I don’t complain even though I’m pretty sure I could have used an extra three or four days of sleep.

“Do you know that you told me you loved me last night?” Nik growls, thrusting even deeper.

“Yeah,” I whimper, clutching his hand that splays over my sternum.

“Did you mean that, gorgeous?”

“I did. Holy shit, Nik.” I thrash as he slides his hand down, pinching my clit.

“Fuck Mel, it’s all I thought about all night, but you knocked out immediately after saying it.” He scrapes his teeth over the shell of my ear. “I’ve never said this to a woman before, not romantically. I love you.”

I nod, slamming my hips back into his.

“Don’t worry, sweet girl. I know how to fuck you like I don’t, but just remember I really fucking do,” he growls, plowing into me from behind as we lie spooning.

“Okay, good, me too. But deeper or harder? Both please.”

Nik chuckles darkly. His breath fanning over my neck makes me shiver. He pounds into me like I’m his dirty little fuck toy, but he cradles me to him like I’m precious, all while sending jolts of his pleasure through the bond.
