“Fuck, yeah. I’ll give you a text when we’re home so we can go… shopping.”
“Ah. Shopping. Got it. Good cover,” she whispers.
I give her a hug before she goes, and I stash the bag in one of the kitchen cupboards before either of them appears.
I’m pouring a glass of water when I hear the door close.
Rowan is first, coming through the hallway from his place. Backwards hat again. Black jeans and a tight tee. He stalks towards me, his eyes raking over my little pink dress.
“Like what you see, rockstar?” I tease.
When he stops in front of me, I grab his silver chain and yank him down for a kiss.
“Always.”
I lean back, taking him in.
“I’m not sure I can take a guy as hot as you are, in a backwards hat and a slutty chain, into a bookstore.”
“Oh yeah? Why is that?”
I grab his throat.
“Someone might try and steal you from me. Us book girls are thirsty.”
Rowan leans in, grabbing my water from the side.
He tips back his head, drinking most of it. But then he doesn’t swallow the last bit. He taps my lips with a hunger in his dark eyes.
With one hand around my throat, he spits the water into my mouth.
“Thirst quenched?” he asks, his voice rough.
I swallow, a heat burning my cheeks.
“Not even close, rockstar.”
Reggie clears his throat, and I glance over and groan. He’s looking like a damn Greek god too.
“Reggie,” I whine.
“What?”
“You both need to get changed. You’re too sexy to be taking me smutty book shopping. Go put on something that reveals less muscles and tattoos?” I say sweetly.
They both chuckle.
I walk over to Reggie, running my hands through his dark curls.
“I’ll go put on a shorter dress if you don’t.” I bat my lashes at him.
He leans in and kisses me until I can’t breathe.
“I can fight. So you’re safe to wear anything you want, baby. Looks like you’ll have to do the same to protect us, huh?”
I chew on my lip.
“If I get arrested today, it’s on both of you.”
