He looks at me with curiosity shining in his eyes before leading me through the house. I look around at the wood floors and the massive windows with the view of the outdoors. Everything around me looks like it came from a magazine about a sleek and modern farmhouse.

“Why do you have trouble sleeping in cars?” he asks as he opens the door at the end of the hall to reveal a large bedroom. “I don’t have any of the other bedrooms renovated yet, so I hope you don’t mind sharing a bed.”

“I’m pregnant with your baby. I think that sharing a bed with you is the least of my worries.” I give him a cheeky smile as I shimmy my denim shorts down my legs. “Besides, right now. I’m too tired to care.”

“Are you going to answer my question?” he asks as he sets the bags on a chair in the corner before stripping down too. “Or is this going to be another one of those mysteries that I’m still trying to unravel about you?”

“I used to live in my car. After my parents died. The house was burned. I had to live somewhere but there was no way in hell I was going to allow myself to get involved with the foster system. So, car it was.”

He looks at me for a moment before wrapping his arms around my waist and hauling me against his body.

For a second, I stand there stiffly, not quite sure what’s happening. He chuckles and drops a kiss to my shoulder.

“I’m hugging you, Hadley. It wouldn’t hurt you to hug me back.”

I laugh and wrap my arms around him. The feeling of just standing there and holding onto him is foreign. I can’t remember the last time that someone just held me while I stood there with them.

“Come on,” he says when he finally steps away. “Nap time.”

Jovan gets into bed before pulling the sheets to the side. He holds them open long enough for me to finish kicking off my shoes and shorts. I climb into the bed beside him, careful to keep a good amount of distance between us.

He rolls onto his side and tucks an arm under his head. An amused smile curves his mouth upward. “What are you doing all the way over there?”

“Going to sleep. It’s what you should do too.”

He shuffles closer to me and wraps an arm around my waist. As his fingers trail up and down my skin, a shiver races down my spine.

Jovan’s gaze drops down to my mouth, sending a rush of heat straight to my core. My breath hitches as he leans closer to me.

“You know that I’m going to do whatever I can to keep you and the baby safe, right? I lost my family once. I’m not going to let that happen again.”

I want to argue with him about being his family, but I know it’s only because of my own fucked up issues. We’ve both been alone for so long that I don’t know if either of us really knows what a family is.

“I’m scared about what’s going to happen. I didn’t think that I would be having a baby at this point in my life. I’m supposed to finish school and start teaching.”

“Who says you can’t do that with a baby?” Jovan asks, his tone soft as he continues to trace patterns on my skin.

“I don’t have any support. You’re running a cartel. I don’t have siblings. I’m sure Kennedy would love to help, but I can’t rely on her to take care of the baby all the time.”

“We have time to figure all that out. I’m not going to leave you to do this on your own.”

A lump in my throat threatens to choke me as I look at him. My heart pounds in my chest as I close the distance between us, drifting my lips across his.

Jovan lets out a low groan, his hand flattening against my back as he pulls me too him. The kiss deepens, his tongue tangling with mine. I moan into the kiss as my hand slides over his cheek, feeling the rough stubble against my palm. My hand slides down to his neck as my fingers sink into the soft hair at his nape.

His rough hands slide beneath my shirt before pulling it off me. He grabs my hips and rolls over, pulling me on top of him. His cock throbs against my core as I roll my hips and tease him.

“Fuck, Hadley,” he says, his voice raspy as he pulls back to look at me. “I don’t know how I’ve gone this long in my life without you.”

I don’t know what to say to that, so I kiss him again. I smooth my hands over his bare chest as I pepper kisses along his cheek and down his neck to his collarbones. I graze my teeth along the sensitive skin before continuing to work my way down his body.

Jovan lifts his hips enough for me to pull off his shorts and boxers. His cock springs free, a drop of moisture glistening on the head. I lick the drop from the tip of his cock before dragging my tongue along his length.

I grip the base of his cock while I take the head in my mouth. Jovan’s fingers sink into my hair and he pulls it back from my face. Our gazes connect as I swirl my tongue around him. He groans, heat blazing in his eyes, as I hollow my cheeks and take more of him into my mouth.

I tease him with my teeth and tongue, sucking his cock and moaning when he hits the back of my throat. I moan around him as he guides my head faster, his hips raising up as he thrusts deeper into my mouth.

“I need to feel your pussy wrapped around my cock,” he says, his voice gruff as he pulls me away from his cock.
