My mouth tips in a crooked smile. “How’d you mean, darlin’?”
“God above.” A hand sliding behind my neck, she pulls my mouth down to hers.
I can’t control what happens next. Cupping her face, I pull her up off the bed and spin her round. We’re all heat, dancing around each other, and she meets me where I’m at. Fine fingers glide up my neck and into my hair.
One hand presses over my heart as she herds me backward to the edge of the bed. Dropping onto the mattress, I slide my hands down her neck, losing contact for a second before I grip her hips, and she crawls onto my lap.
Rocking forward, she moans a little. The sound is goddamn intoxicating.
Just as needy for this as I am, she devours my mouth, her hands weaving their way through my hair.
I’m rock fucking hard underneath her.
Sweet Christ, this woman is my version of heaven.
She is heaven, period.
I may as well have died and left this earth for all I care. I take everything she offers up, my hands wandering up her ribs, and she breaks away.
“We should . . .”
Her lips are parted, her breaths now short choppy bursts, color flushing her features. She’s stunning, freshly kissed and out of breath. I can only imagine how incredible she looks freshly fucked.
I press my forehead to her chest with a groan.
She chuckles, running a hand through my hair. “Thank god for turbulence.”
“Fucking hell,” I breathe. I can’t do anything more, only exist, trying to catch my breath around her.
“Laws—”
The front door rattles under a hard knock.
Timing, Reed, timing.
“Hello?” my youngest brother calls, back from being out on his tractor, no doubt. Rubes probably texted him to come home since I arrived with Carlie and had made a point of not telling my family ahead of time. Easier that way.
Ma would make it a big deal and all. I want Carlie’s weekend to be great and productive. None of those things can happen with my meddling family. They mean well, but?—
“Is that Reed?” Carlie’s face lights up.
“Yep. Come on, we should get this over with.”
“I heard that, Laws.” Reed’s voice is muted through the door.
Carlie chuckles, tossing her head back. I dot a kiss to her sternum and her laughter fades, brown eyes settling back on my face as all amusement disappears, replaced by a sliver of the need it was just captivated by. She runs a thumb over my bottom lip before closing her eyes briefly and rising from my lap.
Shifting myself in my jeans, I head for the door and swing it open. “Reedsy, how’s things, bud?”
He opens the screen door and walks in. I tug him into a one-armed hug, and he smacks the side of my head. “You know Rubes needs a heads-up if you’re bringing a pretty girl.”
Carlie walks up, stopping by my side. “Hi.”
“Howdy.” Reed beams, folding her into a hug before I have a chance to tell him not to. As he releases her, he glances at me, fixing his hat. “Well, aren’t you the prettiest surprise we’ve had around here in a long while.”
Carlie huffs a laugh and smiles. “Thank you, glad to be of service.”
“Oh, I like this one, Laws.”
