I glanced at my open closet. I should also start thinking about re-installing the doors and see if doing so triggered me. No matter if it did or didn’t, the cabin needed to be puppy-proofed if Onyx was staying.
No, not if, I already knew she was. My hope was she wasn’t the only one staying.
I wasn’t ready for him to move in, of course. It was way too early for that. While we’d slept together a lot recently, tonight would be only the second night we had sex. However, I did hope him staying over more often than not continued.
These last three weeks made it clear Eagle’s Landing could now be officially called home. A permanent place to start over. A new place to restart my life.
I should probably make an effort to make some acquaintances in town so I wasn’t labeled the weird, anti-social “writer” on the mountain. Not everyone knew I was author C.J. Anson yet, but eventually they would.
“My favorite animal…” Rett murmured as he raked his fingers down my chest and then followed the dark trail of hair until he paused at the waistband of my jeans. He began to unfasten them.
I tilted my head in question.
“A bare bear,” he answered.
I brushed a hand across my hairy chest. “You like my carpet?”
“I love your carpet. It’s the perfect fluffy pillow for my head when I fall asleep on your chest.”
“So, I shouldn’t shave it?”
Rett gasped dramatically. “Don’t you dare.”
“It gets hot in the summer.”
“Baby, it’s hot all year round.” He added a sexy little growl to the end of that.
Wait… The corner of my eye twitched. “Baby?”
“You don’t like it?”
I wasn’t sure.
“You’ve never been called that before?”
“No.”
“Just ‘asshole?’”
“For a long time, that’s what fit.”
“Thankfully, things have changed.”
“I’m sure you’re relieved.”
Rett wrapped his hand around the back of my neck and his mouth hovered over mine. “You have no idea.”
He was wrong for once. I did have a good idea.
“If you don’t like me calling you baby, then, since we’re both supposed to be experts with words, we should be able to come up with something better. Like ‘boo.’”
“A simple ‘Chase’ works but we can take ‘baby’ for a test drive, too. However, don’t you dare call me ‘boo.’”
He chuckled against my mouth. “Are we done talking now so we can get down to the important business, Chase?”
“You’re the one who talks too—”
He stole the rest of my words when he captured my mouth. I let him have it for a few seconds before taking it back. “Pants off,” I ordered.
His eyes lit up and he took a step back so we’d both have room to remove our shoes, socks and jeans. After our clothes ended up in a messy pile on top of my dresser, we stood facing each other naked.
My gaze swept down him from head to feet. Even though we hadn’t had sex for a while, we had seen each other naked just about every day. What I was seeing wasn’t anything new but seeing him totally naked still stopped me in my tracks every damn time.
Everything about the man was gorgeous. His appearance, his personality, his outlook on life.
Whether I knew it at first or not, he was exactly what I needed to get out of my funk. To return to some sort of normalcy. To be able to breathe easier without feeling like I was suffocating.
His patience and determination was the icing on the smart, attractive and funny cake. A cake I was hungry to eat.
I would still love and miss Thomas for the rest of my life but I had made room for Rett, too. Luckily, he didn’t seem to mind sharing that space, another reason to really…
Like him.
He had found a place in my heart and filled some of that emptiness.
I deepened my voice and ordered, “On the bed.”
His mouth curling into a smile was a clear “yes,” but him shaking his head told me he didn’t want that. “No, not yet.”
“Then wha—” I swallowed the rest of that when he slid down my body and landed on his knees.
He was about to swallow something, too.
“Okay, then…”
He raised his eyes to mine and asked, “You sure?”
With a nod, I answered, “I’m okay with this delay.”
He chuckled again and wrapped two fingers around the base of my aching cock. “You sure?” he asked again. “Because I don’t want you to—”
I quickly cut him off. “I’m sure. Take your time.”
His shoulders shook as he took just the tip into his mouth.
Sweet baby Jesus.
I tensed the muscles in my legs and locked my knees. The sight of him on his knees at my feet with my cock in his mouth…
My breath hitched and my heartbeat quickened.
And as he manipulated my cock with his warm, wet mouth and tongue…
Holy shit.
When I threw my head back and my eyelids slid closed, my fingers brushed through his silky hair and I resisted the temptation to curl my fingers and grab a handful.
