“Do we get to meet her soon?”

“I hope so.”

He nods and walks away and I get my phone back out, texting Tess even though she’s probably asleep because she sent her text more than two hours ago.

Dom: I’ve never been so jealous of my dog. Lucky bastard. A week is a long time to go without seeing you. Miss you, beautiful.

A full week of texts like this means a full week of jerking off in the shower every day. Because no way am I going out with the guys on this trip. I wouldn’t be tempted to cheat on Tess, but it feels wrong to be out in a bar with puck bunnies when she could be in danger. We haven’t even formalized our relationship, but I’m with her in every way that matters to me.

I’ve fucked up a couple of times with her, but I’ll never make her doubt that she’s the one and only woman I want. Even if it’s painfully hard to wait for time alone with her, she’s it for me.

Somehow, I already know it’ll be worth the wait.

Chapter Eighteen

Tess

“Everything’s secure. Nothing to worry about.”

Benton has assured Dom and me several times that it’s okay to leave the house for our date, but we’re both still hesitating.

“What if there’s a power outage?” I ask. “Would that take out the security system?”

“No, I have a backup generator,” Dom says.

“I checked the functionality with the security company when the kids were at school a few days ago,” Benton says. “We cut power to the house and the generator kicked on. No lapse at all.”

“They’re in good hands,” Dom reminds me.

Cam is having a movie night in the basement with the kids. Even Zane agreed to stay here tonight to keep me from worrying about him. Dom has a projector with theater-like couches in his movie room, and the kids love watching movies in there. Tonight, it’s going to be Monsters, Inc., complete with popcorn and monster cookies.

“I was on night shift for nine years,” Benton says. “I promise my guard will be up every minute tonight.”

Even though Dom’s in town, Benton is staying here tonight, so we don’t have to worry while we’re out or be home by a certain time.

After a week of exchanging sexy texts while he was on the road, Dom and I are both more than ready for a night alone together. We’ve only officially been on a third of a date, but the way things have progressed, it feels like we’ve been together for a while.

We say our goodbyes to everyone and leave, and I’m surprisingly relaxed as Dom pulls his Escalade out of the garage. It seems I can only be on edge for so long, and then my body forces itself to relax.

Besides, the kids are in better hands with Benton than they are with me, if I’m being honest. He’s about six-three and two hundred and twenty-five pounds.

“So, off to Angelina’s,” Dom says, looking over at me.

He made a reservation at an Italian place, and I was hungry about an hour ago, but now I only have one thing on my mind, and it’s not food.

“I thought maybe we could stop by my house and check on things first,” I say.

“Sure, no problem.”

“I have a lacy black bra there I want to check on,” I say lightly. “And some matching panties with a cutout over the crotch. I bet it would feel so good for you to fuck me in those panties.”

“Holy shit. I might run the car off the road.”

I’ve been dying to play with him like this—to finally let go and show him how much I want him.

“No one’s ever seen me in them. I just bought them to wear when I wanted to feel sexy underneath my clothes. I’ve fantasized about how naughty it would feel to get fucked in them so many times. To have someone so mad for me, he just ripped off the bra.”
