“You came. I have every reason to be confident.”
She shook her head, but he still spotted her smile. “Fine. Be as confident as you want to be. But you don’t know if we’ll get another time. You might be getting on a flight home tomorrow.”
“My dad is dead-set on finishing this retreat, remember? Besides, we have yoga in the morning. I’ll find you after yoga tomorrow.”
“No.”
“No?”
“No, don’t find me. Tell me where to meet you and when.”
“I have no idea when the yoga thing will happen. Let’s say two. Late lunch. Dinner too. Don’t make breakfast plans either.”
“Too confident,” she warned with a grin.
“If we only get a few days, then we’ll make the most of it.”
She giggled. “Fine. That’s a good point. I’ll meet you here at two.”
“It’s so far,” he whispered before kissing her softly.
“You have to go, Grey. I’ll see you soon.” She kissed him, but he wasn’t ready to let her go. He deepened the kiss and grabbed hold of her. They were interlaced when they were interrupted.
“What the hell is going on here?” Rachel asked, her mouth gaping in shock. She blinked between her sister and Grey. He tried to find a reasonable excuse to explain what was going on, but he was at a loss. He couldn’t form a single thought.
“Oh. Rach. Hey.” She smoothed down her dress and then her hair.
Rachel noticed and narrowed her eyes at him. “You need to come with me. There’s been enough dragon time. You’re here with us, and it’s about time you hung out with your coven.” She took Kaia’s hand in hers and began to lead her away.
Grey, who was still holding on to Kaia’s waist, didn’t let her go. Rachel had no choice but to let her hand drop. He cupped Kaia’s cheeks in his hands and brushed a soft kiss against her mouth. “If you want to find me, I’m staying in the blue cabanas. Number seven.”
“I’ll see you tomorrow.”
They kissed again before he made himself walk away. If he hadn’t, Rachel was going to kick his ass down the path. Hopefully, Kaia wouldn’t be impacted because of her sister’s concerns.
“Don’t fall into his trap,” Greyson heard Rachel hiss through tight lips, making him look back at them.
“I won’t,” Kaia replied softly.
The first thing Greyson felt was a crushing disappointment. It was insane, really. Why should he care if Kaia wouldn’t fall into the whole love and marriage trap? It’s not likehewanted to marry her and be stuck with her beautiful smile and perfect giggle forever. It’s not likehewanted to see what their children might look like.
It’s not like he cared about her at all.
Kaia Coll was a good lay, and that was all there was to it.
That wasn’t the truth, though. That’s not all there was to it. Grey liked her. He missed her now, even though he had only just left her side. He wanted to kiss her again. He wanted to lay her down on a bed and explore every inch of her body.
As he continued to daydream about Kaia, Grey made his way to Lou’s Place. He hoped the demon might know where Portia was. Lou was nowhere to be seen, but Sei, the young demon who sometimes stepped in for Lou, was behind the bar, busy flirting with a couple of pixies. When he spotted Greyson, he slid his way over, grabbing some ingredients as he went along. It wasn’t quite as smooth as Lou, but it was a decent enough effort.
“How is our hero?” Sei asked
Grey rolled his eyes. “Did Lou put you up to that?”
Sei nodded. “He did, and it’s worth more than my job’s worth to ignore Lou. He made it clear that you’re to drink for free anytime you’re in here.”
“I just wondered if you knew where I might find Portia,” Grey said instead of replying to the demon.
Sei’s eyes went wide. “Oh! And why do you need to talk to the big boss? Is there something happening? Do you want me to help? I am a good helper. I help people all the time. Lou showed me how, and he’s the best at helping people.”
