She loves me? I slam my lips down on hers. She gasps in surprise and I shove my tongue into her mouth. Her tart taste hits me and I moan. How does she taste better every single time I kiss her?

I pinch her chin and tilt her head so I can deepen the kiss. She moans and her tongue meets mine. I wrap my arms around her and lift her up. She wraps her legs around me and I walk forward until her back hits the wall.

A thump sounds before Isla shouts, “I’m okay.”

Leia wrenches her lips from mine. “Did you break anything?”

“No!”

“Good,” she mutters before she jolts and her eyes widen. “We’re in the living room. We can’t do this here.” She wiggles to be let down.

“Don’t move,” I growl at her. “You love me?”

Her eyes cloud in confusion. “I didn’t ….Crap. I did say those words, didn’t I?”

“Say them again,” I order.

“No.”

I nip her bottom lip. “Say them again and I’ll say them again.”

“You can say them anyway.”

I don’t deny her. I can’t deny her anything. She has me wrapped around her little finger.

“I love you, Leia Wilson. I’ve never said those words to anyone before.”

She frowns. “You’ve never said I love you before? Not even to Vicki?”

“No.” I thought I loved Vicki but I never actually said the words. And now I’m glad I didn’t. I’m glad Leia is the first woman I can give those words to.

“What about your mom?” I scowl. “Someday you have to tell me about her.”

I nod. “I will. I promise.”

There’s a knock on the door before Jett shouts, “Can Isla come out to play?”

I set Leia on her feet. “I’ll deal with the idiot.”

“Idiots,” Gibson corrects.

I open the door and snarl at Gibson and Jett. “Leave.”

“Fender.” Leia slaps my shoulder. “Be nice.”

“Why?”

She sighs. “I apologize for him. He thinks he’s an actual king when in reality he’s only the King of the Grumps.”

“He’s going to be thanking us in less than a minute,” Jett claims.

I grunt. Why would I thank these yahoos?

“Assuming mama bear lets Isla come over for a slumber party at our house,” Gibson says.

“We have movies, popcorn, candy, and a tent.”

Jett barely finishes speaking before Isla shrieks. “Say yes, Mom!”
