The next day, I seriously had to fight the urge to pinch myself. I'd thought last night was fantastic, but today was even more so. It was by no means beautiful outside—the fog was thick on the lake—but Dom had started the electric fireplace.

"This is so cozy," I said, making myself comfortable on the love seat. At least that was what I called it, as it was the shorter arm of the L-shaped couch. It could comfortably fit two people lying next to each other.

Dom sat right behind me, placing his legs on the outer sides of mine. I pushed my hair to one side as he kissed the back of my neck.

I could feel my entire body relaxing even though I had so much going on. I hadn't heard from Declan in regard to Malcolm, but I was trying not to think about it.

"What happened?" he asked against my skin.

"What?" I asked.

"You tensed up all of a sudden."

"I just have a lot of tension gathered right here." I pointed to a spot just below where he’d kissed me before.

I didn't want to tell him what was going on with Malcolm. This weekend was too beautiful to ruin it with any talk of him. Besides, Dom couldn't do anything about it.

"Is that just a trick to make me touch you here?"

I giggled. "I didn't know I needed any tricks."

"You don't." He tugged my pajama top down until it reached the middle of my back, then kissed a straight line from the base of my neck down to where the fabric covered skin. My center pulsed on each kiss.

"I love this. I can practically feel every muscle relaxing. Why am I wasting my time with professional massages when I can just get you to kiss me?"

"That's right. Every time you need it, just let me know."

I grinned. "Really? What will you do? Pop up at the office?"

"Don't put it past me. I'm at your beck and call."

He doesn't mind possibly running into my family?

"You're doing that thing again," he said, putting a hand on my belly and kissing back up my neck. "You’re thinking about something that makes you tense."

I turned around, narrowing my eyes. "Can you read minds or something?"

"No, but I can read your body."

"And what is it telling you?"

He lowered his gaze. "Right now? That you already want me."

I looked down, curious as to what he was seeing. My top had shifted a bit, and my nipples were visible and peeking out.

"You're touching me and kissing me. Nothing I can do about that."

He put two fingers under my chin, pressing his lips to mine. "No, but I can."

"I bet," I replied. "And it is the perfect day for this, isn't it? What terrible weather. Thank goodness we went exploring last night."

"I could still show you the house."

I frowned. "I already saw it."

"You didn't see the basement. I think you’re going to enjoy it.”

I scrunched my nose. "Basements aren't my favorite places. They’re dark and creepy."
