“I will.I promise, I’ll be back tonight.Then we can celebrate your freedom.Why don’t you find a restaurant where you’d like to eat tonight?”
I know he’s trying to reassure me, but all I can think about is him not coming back.What if Joe frames him too?What if something happens to Knox?I mean, Joe clearly isn’t a stable individual.
“Hey, Daisy,” Knox says gently, moving closer and gathering me into his arms.“I’ll be fine.Logan has my back, and we’ve planned this.We’ve thought of everything.It’s going to be all good.”
“I wish you didn’t have to go,” I whisper.
“Me too, I hate leaving you, but I don’t want you stressed or worrying about this any longer.My mate should always be happy.”
I am.Being here with him is the happiest I’ve ever been.Heck, I’ve only been here for two days, and I have everything I’ve been looking for my whole life.
“I need you to come home,” I whisper.
He holds me tighter.“I will.”
A car horn honks outside.
Knox sighs.“I need to get ready, Daisy.You should too.I talked to the guys, and their mates are coming over today to keep you company.You liked them, right?You seemed happy talking to them yesterday, but if not, I can call and cancel?—”
“No, I liked them.”I cut him off.“They’re all friendly, and I’d love to see them again.”
“Good.”He kisses my forehead and sets me back on the bed.
I watch as he grabs some clothes and goes into the bathroom.He showers quickly and emerging minutes later, fully dressed.
He heads right for me and leans down, cupping my face.“I’ll see you tonight.”
He kisses me softly.Or at least it starts out softly.Within moments, the two of us are wrapped around each other.Knox’s body comes down over mine, pressing me into the mattress.I moan, wrapping my legs around his hips.
“Goddamn, Daisy,” he growls.
I gasp, rocking my hips against the stiff ridge in his pants.
His lips are like a brand as he kisses down my neck, nipping the sensitive skin.I shiver, seconds away from begging him to stay and make love to me, when the car horn blares outside again.
“Shit,” Knox groans, looking tortured.“I have to go.”
I pout up at him.
“I promise, I’ll be back as soon as I can.”
I sigh, releasing my grip on him, and he drags himself off the bed.He looks pissed to be leaving me.I try to get myself under control, but it’s impossible.All I can think about is having his delicious weight on me again.
“You can feel it,” Knox says, his eyes dark and heavy with need.
I know he’s talking about the mating heat.“Yeah.As soon as I woke up.”
“Are you in need?”he asks, looking torn.
“Yes.”
He groans.“I can’t have that, mate.”
Before I can react, he grabs my legs and drags me to the side of the bed.He rips his boxers down my legs and falls to his knees.
“Wha—”
He cuts me off by burying his face in my pussy.
