I had every intention of doing just that. I climbed into bed beside her and switched off the light before pulling her to me. I breathed her in, falling a little more in love with her. Until finally, I drifted off to sleep.

At some point in the night, I woke to her hand on my cock, stroking me. I was already hard, and I reached between her legs and found her dripping with need. I teased her until she was frantic, begging me to get inside her.

I fumbled on the nightstand for a condom, quickly rolling it on before pulling her on top of me and sliding home. In the dark, my senses were heightened, and I noticed things I hadn’t the first time. The cadence of her breath. The feel of her hair brushing against my skin. The heat of her body, sucking me in. Her heart, holding me close.

She clenched around me, and desire shot through me like a bolt of lightning, racing down my spine. I cupped the back of her neck, bringing her mouth to mine as we panted and kissed and chased our release. Until finally, she collapsed on top of me, both of us sweaty and spent.

She went to the bathroom first, and when I returned, she nuzzled into my chest. Falling asleep in my arms. I closed my eyes, a smile on my lips. My body humming with satisfaction. My heart at peace.

The next time I woke, it was light, and Wren’s ass was pressed against my dick. I was barely awake, but she was already driving me crazy with the way she was wriggling.

“You are a sex fiend,” I teased, reaching around to circle her clit with my fingers.

“Mm.” She arched into me, wrapping her arm around my neck. “That feels good.”

My dick slid between her thighs, some of her wetness coating me as we rocked together. When I couldn’t take it anymore, I slipped on a condom and slid inside her, loving this slower pace. The closeness of our bodies. The intimacy of the moment.

I love you.The words had nearly exploded from my tongue along with my orgasm. I wanted to tell her so badly, but I didn’t want to come on too strong.

Though, considering my cock had just been inside her multiple times, I wasn’t sure there was such a thing as coming on too strong.

I gathered my courage and was on the verge of saying the words, of telling her I wanted to give us a shot—for real—when Wren’s phone rang.

“Ignore it,” I said, kissing her shoulder. She shivered, goose bumps breaking out along her skin.

“Mm.” She moaned. “Tempting, but—” She grabbed the phone and glanced at the screen. “It’s my alarm. I have a shoot this morning.”

She tapped the screen and went to get out of bed.

“What?” I frowned, pulling her closer. Bringing her back to me.

“Yep.” She laughed. “It’s a newborn one.”

“Cancel it.” My tone was gruff, arms wound tight around her.

“I would if I could.” She turned in my arms, tucking her hands beneath her face. “Trust me, I’d much rather stay here in bed with you. Last night was fun.” Her smile was warm, and I felt that heat travel between us.

“And this morning.” I grinned, kissing her neck.

She sighed and tilted her head back to grant me access. “Thanks for the practice session. It was very…educational.”

I searched her face, her eyes. Was that all it was to her? Practice?

She hopped out of bed, but I grabbed her hand before she could go. “Come back here. We’re not done.” I tugged, trying to entice her to stay.

“I have to go, but I’ll see you later.”

“What?” I opened my mouth in mock outrage. “That’s it? No breakfast in bed?”

She stuck her tongue out at me, grabbing her clothes as she headed for the bathroom. “You know where the kitchen is.”

“Yeah. I meant for you. I was going to make you breakfast.”

She smiled and leaned back over the bed, her hair fanning out around us, her scent surrounding me. She pressed her hand to my cheek, her lips to mine. “You’re the best, Bennett.”

I pulled her on top of me, and she laughed. But we quickly melted into a kiss, our bodies moving together. I couldn’t get enough of her. I wasn’t sure I ever would.

When her snooze alarm sounded, we both groaned. “I wish I could stay here all day with you,” she said. “But I can’t be late.”
