I laughed, burying my face in the cushion. “Sure. Can you get off me now?”
“Mm. No.”
“But I’m hungry.”
“Five more minutes,” he murmured, kissing my shoulder and rocking his hips against me.
“Are you—” I stilled as his cock twitched, hardening inside me again. “Theo.”
He grinned against me. “Yes?”
“What are you—?”
“I told you,” he whispered, kissing my earlobe. “Five. More. Minutes.”
CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR – CHLOE
The Future
I was stuck.
I’d been stuck for the past five minutes.
For an old man, Charles Black had quite the sturdy embrace.
“Um,” I said, peering sideways at him. “Can I—can you…I can’t move.”
“I’m so happy,” he said, squeezing me from the side. “All my dreams are coming true.”
Theo glared at him from where he was leaning against the window on the other side of the room. “Anyone would think you’re the one in a relationship with her, Gramps.”
“She’s my new granddaughter.”
“You’re being very over the top.”
“Be quiet, you brat. I can’t believe it’s taken you this long to convince her to go out with you. Let an old man have his moment.”
“You’re acting like I just told you we’re getting married.”
“Whyaren’tyou getting married? I told you to learn to cook, Theo. No woman wants a man who can’t cook.”
Alastair looked over from his desk. “Pa, you can’t cook.”
“I didn’t need to know how to cook in my day,” the duke replied. “But women appreciate it nowadays.”
“I’ll have you know I make a mean cheese on toast,” Theo said with a grumble.
“That’s not cooking. That’s toasting,” Alastair said. “You don’t hear toasters bragging about their ability to crisp bread, do you? That’s all you are, son. A living, breathing toaster.”
Theo glared at his dad. “Just because you can cook doesn’t give you a right to be on your high horse.”
“Well said,” the duke said, patting my hair gently. “He gets all high and mighty about this kind of stuff.”
“Pa, please let go of Chloe. She’s not a kitten,” Alastair said, removing his glasses. “You’re squeezing her half to death.”
“But I’m so happy to have a granddaughter!”
“Youhavea granddaughter!”
