“And I know you. You descend into bro alarmingly often, but you’re a good guy besides. And she’s hot, you’re also hot.”

I set my tablet aside, lifted both hands with fingers splayed and brought them together with fingers knit.

Nayden cast his gaze to the ceiling.

Tanyn grinned indulgently at me.

“It’s not like I haven’t put thought into it, and you’re Tanyn’s bestie,” I continued. “I wouldn’t risk our relationships just to score my friend a date.”

“Tan and I are not besties,” Nayden groused.

“You are too,” I refuted.

“We’re best buds,” Nayden returned.

“Same thing,” I fired back.

“There are lines you don’t cross if you have a dick. Calling a friend a ‘bestie’ is one of them,” Nayden educated me.

“Gods, you are so male,” I retorted.

“Precisely,” he said.

I rolled my eyes.

However, I did this because I had to concede the point.

Tanyn chuckled.

Hurley wandered in from wherever he’d been sharpening his teeth.

I knew this had been his mission because he had a sloppy, damp rawhide hanging out of his mouth.

Mm-hmm, as previously mentioned, before we came down, I’d prepared for Hurley to be with us there too. My mom had seen to it that he had a whole crate of new toys to play with when we were in Hurley’s new mommy’s flat.

Before I could turn my attention to my tablet, Tanyn slapped his lapcomp closed, and sliding it in his bag, he asked, “Are we ready to roll?”

Since we were, I decided to peruse that picture I saw on the bigger display of my tablet when we were in the jet.

However, I got distracted by getting to the jet, seeing to it we had Aleece, Laura and Gayle’s cases stored in the hold, settling in with Tanyn, Nayden and Hurley and taking off.

It wasn’t until after we broke the sound barrier that I remembered.

I pulled out my tablet and Palm, which was still on the account that had posted the pic.

I found the pic on the tablet and studied it.

“My beautiful Catla,” Tanyn murmured from beside me.

I turned to him.

“Don’t you get lost in that shit too,” he advised gently.

“I’m not lost in it. I was admiring how great we look together.”

Tanyn’s attention shifted to my tablet, and his humming approval of “Mm…” avoided all the other usual places—scalp, nipples, heart—and dragged right over my clit.

I allowed myself to enjoy that for brief moment, then stayed on target.
