She heard the door open and turned her head as Cam came up behind her. He was in his boxers and nothing else.
“You’re going to freeze,” she said softly.
He slipped his hands around her and leaned forward, his chin on her shoulder. “What are you doing out here?”
“I had to say
goodbye to someone.”
She turned in his arms and pulled his face down so she could kiss him properly. His mouth opened over hers, hot and strong and hungry. God, the man could kiss. The two of them clung to each other until their body heat and desire threatened to melt all the snow in Crystal Lake.
Cam scooped her up into his arms, and they headed back into the house. He carried her back to his bedroom, and she giggled when he nearly tripped over the pets. It was no use kicking them out of the room. They’d just whine and scratch at the door and probably wake up Tawny.
Blue slipped out of Cam’s arms and pushed him back on the bed. She slowly undressed, loving the way his eyes followed her movements with an animalistic and predatory look. He made her feel beautiful and perfect. He was her home now.
He was naked and ready. She crawled up his body and positioned herself over him. Without hesitation, she sank down onto his cock, taking all of him as she began to slowly move.
Bending forward, their bodies joined together, she cupped his face and kissed him again. She was in control and increased their rhythm, breaths falling faster now, their bodies covered in a thin sheen of sweat. “I love you,” she whispered hoarsely.
“I know,” he growled, hands now on her hips. “I’m never letting you go.”
She smiled down at him as their passion built, and when they came, it was earth shattering. It was fire rockets and shooting stars. She was content in the knowledge that it was okay to be happy. It was okay to open up and to love.
It was okay to leave the past behind.
And damn, their lives were just beginning.
Epilogue
It was cold this early in the morning. Cam fired up the truck and let it run for a few minutes, before Blue and Tawny and Rufus climbed in. The snow had let up a few days earlier, but the entirety of Crystal Lake was still covered in the white stuff. They sped away from town and he took his time maneuvering the truck down River Road, on account of the snow and ice. About ten minutes after they left his place, he pulled into a driveway nestled among a stand of Fir trees, and in the distance Crystal Lake glittered like diamonds under the bright sunlight.
“Is this it?” Tawny asked eagerly, yanking on her seatbelt.
Cam looked at Blue. She still had that glow from their early morning loving, and he moved close to give her a kiss.
“You guys kiss all the time,” Tawny piped up. “Even when you think I can’t see you.”
Cam chuckled and opened his door. “Come on sweets. Let’s look at the spot we’re going to build our new home.”
He scooped her up into his arms and the three of them, with Rufus trailing behind, made their way up the path and past the crumbling cottage to their right. Cam pointed up the hill. “We’ll build for Melody there.” He turned and they looked at the wreck of a building behind them. “We’ll tear this down and our new home will look out over this.”
Blue slid close to him, her gaze following Cam’s which was settled on the lake.
“It’s beautiful.”
He waited a few moments. “Are you sure you’re good with this? We can’t do something as big as what you’ve got now. And there won’t be a pool. The boathouse will be a lot smaller.”
She smiled and his insides melted. “You could build me a shack and I wouldn’t care. As long as we’re together.” She tweaked Tawny’s cheek and the little girl’s laughter was like music on the wind.
Her brother Cash was going to stay on at her place. Said he was fine living in the apartment above the garage for now, until Blue decided what to do with it. Turned out her brother was okay. Cam still wasn’t sure exactly what he’d used or how he’d threatened Edward Barnes. All he knew was that the man had backed off and neither he, nor Blue, had heard a peep from him since they’d come back from Nashville.
“Can I go see Rufus?” Tawny squirmed in his arms and he let her down. The dog had run to the edge of the lake.
“Don’t go near the ice, okay?”
She nodded and took off, leaving him and Blue to contemplate their future. She turned in his embrace and rested her head on his chest. “Thank you,” she said quietly.
“For what?”
