Water droplets fell down her face. “Because you’re keeping something from me. I can’t do that with you when you’re only here in body, but your mind is somewhere else.”

I lowered my gaze to the floor. “I love you. You know that, right?”

She put her palms to my chest and stared up at me. “I know. But you’re scaring me right now.”

I swallowed down the lump in my throat, feeling more vulnerable than I ever had in my life. “Is this where we end?”

She recoiled so far, her back hit the tiled wall and she flinched at the temperature of it. “What? No! Of course not.”

“My mother killed yours, Roach. How do we move past that?”

The tension fell out of her shoulders. “She killed your father too. But that’s beside the point. You aren’t her. You aren’t your dad. You aren’t anyone but you.” She smiled ruefully. “You’re the man I fell in love with, even though you still insist on calling me Roach.”

I couldn’t help but smile at that. “Can’t stop, won’t stop.”

She shook her head. “I wouldn’t expect anything else.” Her palms drifted up my neck to cup both sides of my face. “I love you, Vaughn Weston. I’m carrying a baby who is yours, no matter who its biological father is. You aren’t your mother any more than I am. You aren’t going to run away to California again. So if you were even considering that, remove the idea from your brain immediately.”

“I wasn’t,” I promised. “Not unless you told me you didn’t want me anymore. Even then, I probably couldn’t have left.” I held her tighter. “You’re addictive, Roach. So fucking addictive it hurts.”

She pushed up on her toes and brushed her lips over mine. “I want you. I think I’ve wanted you since the minute I met you. And I’ll want you until the minute I die. I don’t need time to know that. It’s always been there between us. We both know it.”

We really fucking did.

I pushed her up against the wall, ignoring the way she squealed at the cold tiles, and then dropped to my knees to suck her pussy.

“Oh,” she moaned, lifting one leg over my shoulder and grabbing my head to use for balance. “God, yes.”

She rocked her hips over my face, and I tongued her deep and hard, spearing up inside her before licking her clit and then repeating. The moment I slid my fingers inside her she crumpled, shouting out my name as she came.

When she was done, I licked my fingers clean and stood.

Her eyes were half-mast, but a happy smile played around her mouth. “I’d return the favor, but Kian and Fang are organizing something, and we’re expected.”

I reached behind me and shut off the water. “It’s a foursome, isn’t it?”

She glanced over her shoulder at me as she pulled a towel from the rack. “Is there something you’d want more?”

There was only one thing I could think of. “You. Forever.”

Her smile was the sweetest thing I’d ever seen. “You already have that.”

REBEL

“Fang has agreed to let me try something,” Kian announced as Vaughn and I stepped into Fang’s bedroom.

Vaughn surveyed the two queen-sized mattresses on the floor. “Did he agree to let you disappear his bedframe?” He stuck his head out into the hallway. “Where the hell is it?”

Fang pointed at the walk-in closet. “It was held together by four bolts. Not exactly difficult to take apart. We just pulled your mattress off your bed.”

Vaughn toed it. “If you’d wanted a trampoline, Kian, you could have just bought one, you know.”

Kian flipped him the bird. “You’ll thank me when I’m fucking you and you’re bouncing up and down on a nice soft mattress rather than the floor. We couldn’t all fit on the one bed, you know. Especially when your ego takes up half the room.”

Vaughn sauntered across the room and kissed him hard on the mouth. “My back thanks you in advance. Feel free to go hard to teach me a lesson.”

Kian grinned but then shoved him away. “Back to me. Fang has agreed we should kiss.”
