Colt steps in front of me, as if blocking the man’s eyes from my body. “Right. Let me show you the house.”
His hand brushes against mine as he passes. A hot, prickling sensation spreads through me like a promise, a reassurance thatthis—whatever this is—is not over.
I sink back onto the swing, pressing my fingers to my swollen lips, remembering Colt’s kiss. I feel altered down to my core. He was right; something has changed.
That kiss was just the beginning, but at the same time, a point of no return.

COLT
The insurance adjuster’scar disappears down the driveway, and the silence that follows is deafening. I stand on the porch, every nerve ending in my body still blazing from that kiss—from having Lily in my arms, from feeling her soft skin against my palm. Her taste is still branded on my tongue, her scent embedded in my lungs.
She’s still out on the swing, looking over at me with those innocent green eyes that seem to see right into me, wanting, needing, trusting. I can see her lips are swollen from the kiss, and that simple sight sends a rush of possessiveness through me that I have no right to feel.
“Colt?” Her voice is soft and uncertain, like she thinks I might turn away again.
She’s right to worry. Every instinct in my body is screaming at me to leave and put distance between us. To rebuild the walls between us that she’s managed to destroy with shocking ease. But I’m tired of running from this, from her, from the inevitable conclusion of where this thing has to go.
“You.” I smile, snapping my fingers at her. “You come here.”
She giggles, rising immediately, and pads over to me, her hips swaying with such delicious feminine energy. I’ve nevereven thought about having kids, but when I watch her move, all I can picture is putting a baby in her belly.
When she’s close enough, I reach out and grab her wrists, pulling her up against me. She gasps, pressing her hands against my chest. I can feel her heart racing just like mine.
“We need to talk,” I manage to say. “About what just happened.”
“What happened? You kissed me. We kissed.”
“We shouldn’t have.Ishouldn’t have done that.”
Her face falls. Her eyes fill with disappointment. She tries to pull away, but I reflexively tighten my grip. “Let me finish,” I tell her. “I shouldn’t have, but I’m going to do it again—and again and again and again. Because now that I’ve tasted you, Lily, there’s no going back.”
Her eyes light back up, and she leans in. “Good. Don’t go back.”
“Christ, you’re eighteen,” I say, shaking my head. “You know I’m twenty-eight, right?”
“Stop using our ages as an excuse,” she says, her eyes flashing with fire. “Or am I too young to make my own decisions?”
“No, of course not—”
“That’s right.” She smiles, pressing her body closer. I can feel her plump breasts, her nipples hard with arousal—and that’s when I lose it.
I snatch her up with both hands and lay her down beneath me. Her breath catches and her eyes widen, but she doesn’t look afraid; she looks like she’s won.
Yes, you have, sis. You won me over.
“You sure about this?” I growl, my voice dark and hungry. “You don’t know what you’re getting yourself into.”
She nods without hesitation. “Stop stalling.”
Her words shock me. Lily is bold, but I never expected this level of assertiveness from her. And as she licks her lips, I know thatthisis finally the moment.
I tug my fly open and stare into her gorgeous eyes as I reach down and pull out my hard cock. Her eyes open even more when she sees it, the crown swollen and ready, pre-cum leaking from the tip. “I…I never knew they were so big.”
I have to chuckle. “Theyare not.Iam.”
It takes a moment for my words to register, but when she gets it, her face softens. “Oh.”
