He let out another dramatic breath that wasn’t nearly as subtle as he seemed to think it was and nodded. “I’ll help measure and then we’ll take notes.”
“Great.” He was happier and we had a plan, so I nodded toward the pile on the bed. “Is that all? Are you sure you don’t need anything else?”
I was brilliant.
Knox gave me another beaming smile and shook his head. “No, I think that’s enough for a few days and we’ll figure out the rest.”
Yep, there would be plenty more where that pile came from.
“That sounds like a good plan.” At least it was until I figured out how to ask more questions. “Come on. Let’s go home.”
For now, at least, it was definitely home for both of us.
Chapter 23
Knox
“Oh no, don’t even think about looking at food.” Rohan pretended to groan as he pushed me into the house, nudging me with the box he was carrying. “I saw that look on your face. You don’t even need water.”
He was so ridiculous...I’d wanted booze.
“Is it a nightcap if it’s not nighttime yet?” He didn’t have much alcohol, but I had a distinct memory of vodka somewhere in the kitchen. “It’s five o’clock somewhere.”
Snickering, he set the box by the door and wrapped his arms around me. “I had more interesting plans than that, but I guess relaxing with a drink sounds good too.”
Hmm.
“We can do both. I can multitask.” And really, one after the other would be fine too. “What kind of interesting things did you have planned?”
I didn’t bother trying to look subtle because I was pretty sure greedy would get me what I wanted faster.
Rohan gave a booming laugh before leaning back to try to look serious. “I shouldnotbe getting you even buzzed and then doing interesting things to you.”
When did we make that rule?
“I live with you, so I’m pretty sure thedon’t drink and sexthing doesn’t apply.” What else? “Oh, we were already planning on having sleep sex at some point, so that’s important to remember as well. And spankings feel even better when you’re drunk. Everyone knows that.”
Everyone online did anyway.
One eyebrow went up. “Do you know that firsthand or did you read it in a book?”
“Just because I haven’t touched the sun doesn’t mean I don’t understand it’s hot.” He was just looking for things to worry about. “The internet isn’t wrong about everything.”
“I don’t even know what to say to that.” Trying to look stern and serious, Rohan almost managed to pull it off, but he wanted to smile too much for it to really work. “Alright, here’s my proposal. After we unload everything, we’ll sit down and make a list of limits for this scene...how much alcohol will be involved, what activities you want to participate in, and when we stop the scene. Those kinds of things.”
“Deal.” The first step was definitely him not saying no completely, so I knew we were well on our way to naughty fun. “Do—”
“Yes.” Rohan interrupted before I could finish my sentence. “We’re putting everything away first and we’re going over the pictures we have of the other house so I know what to get tomorrow. Real life stuff firstand thensexual shenanigans.”
Doms were a pain in the ass sometimes.
How had later in the week turned into doing it now?
“But shenanigans are much more fun.” Hmm. “And my day didn’t turn out like I’d expected.”
Rohan rolled his eyes. “Mine didn’t either.”
That was not the response I’d expected.
