“It’s too soon,” I muttered, my heart galloping behind my ribs.
“Says who?”
I didn’t have an answer for that, and by the smug look on Texas’s face, he knew it.
“No one’s gonna hear it but me. Unless you didn’t mean it.”
I glared and shoved his shoulder. “Youknow.”
His lips twitched. “Know what?”
“Texas Monroe, don’t play games with me.”
“Then tell me.”
Sighing, I looked off to the side, rolled my eyes, and then looked back at the man who meant the world to me. Searching his face, I stopped on his gaze, and whispered, “I love you, Texas.”
His grin took my breath away. He dipped down to press his lips to mine. Against them, he said, “Fuck, babe. I love you too.” His hand tightened, drawing out a gasp. He pulled his head back a little. “You’re everything to me, and I’m never lettin’ you go, so don’t go gettin’ any ideas of gettin’ away from me. I will hunt you.”
“Baby, if I wasn’t on the verge of throwing up, I would jump you right now.”
He threw his head back and laughed. God, he was handsome.
When he was done, he kissed the corner of my mouth. “I gotta get a shower in before the client shows. You get over this hangover, and later I’m fuckin’ you hard.”
“Sounds good to me.”
He climbed off the bed.
“And you know it’s your fault I got drunk.”
“Babe” was all he said with a smirk before he went into the en suite. He might not have thought the blame should go to him, but it wasn’t me who started with the drinking at the compound in the first place.
“Maya,” he called, poking his head out the door. “Do you remember the drive home?”
I scrunched my nose in thought and then it hit me.
“Oh God,” I groaned.
I wanted to slap his wide grin off his face. He winked and disappeared, then I heard the shower turning on.
We’d rode Texas’s bike over to the compound to catch up with whoever was there. It wasn’t until I was sloshed that Dad and Mum showed and offered to drive us home.
Texas got me into the back of their car behind the driver’s seat, and I leaned forward, nearly strangling Dad as I hugged him.
“I love you guys so, so much.”
“Sweetie, are you trying to kill your father?” Mum tapped my arm.
“Oops.” I laughed and let go. I’d scooted into the middle seat when Texas got in the other side. “Do you know what I said the other day?”
“What?” Dad asked, rubbing at his throat.
“I told Texas how perfect my parents are. Didn’t I?” I reached back and slapped Texas on the chest. But then I got distracted by the hardness and turned in my seat to look at him. “Have I told you how hot you are today?”
From the front seats, someone groaned as if in pain. But Texas’s face was important.
Texas chuckled. “Not today, but now you have.”
