“See how that works. What you want you get.”

“Be careful about making promises like that.”

He chuckled and kissed me again. “I don’t need to be careful when I stand behind my words, Keiris.”

“So whatever I want?” I arched a brow and he nodded.

“It’s pretty secluded up here.” My fingers moved to his jeans and he caught my wrist.

“Anything but that, for now.”

“See, be careful with your words.”

Balor chuckled and draped an arm around my shoulders. I hooked mine around his side, falling in step with him as we entered a wooded trail. “You plan on telling me your secrets now?”

“You already know my secrets but why do you ask?”

“We drove an hour outside the city, up the mountain to a deserted area. I thought maybe you planned on telling me your secrets then tossing me off a cliff or something.”

He threw his head back and laughed. “Your mind is insane as hell.”

“I read a lot of romance fiction books.”

“There isn’t a damn thing romantic about the idea of baring your soul to someone who then throws you over a cliff.”

“It’s endearing and it can be romantic if he goes over the edge with her.”

“No the fuck it’s not.” He frowned down at me. “And I’m not taking you anywhere near the edge of this mountain.”

“Okay so no secrets. Why are we up here?”

“I come up here a lot. It’s peaceful.”

“Mm…” I hummed. “Your secret spot. I feel honored.”

“You should. This is my escape spot. Ty doesn’t even come up here with me.” We navigated through the path until we reached a clearing. There were several fallen trees, massive trunks, and a couple of boulders that looked to have been a part of the mountain at some point. We sat on a low baring one, or rather, Balor sat on one and I climbed into his lap, straddling his waist, needing to be close.

I slipped my arms around his neck and brushed my fingers over the back. “You’re sharing your peace with me.”

“I shared my dick, it’s the least I can do.”

I grinned, rolling my eyes. “I appreciate both.”

“Then I’ll continue to share both.” He leaned closer, allowing his mouth to graze the curve of my chin.

“Mmm, this place kinda reminds me of camping with my family when I was a kid.”

“How you go from appreciating my dick to talking about your family?”

I smiled, inching closer to him so I ended up on his dick. “I’m enjoying the space we’re in and the space reminds me of childhood memories.” Balor narrowed his eyes on my face and I smiled wider. “Sans the dick.”

He chuckled and nodded. “You close to your family?”

“Yes, very close. My parents have been married for forty-three years. They got married when my mom got pregnant.”

“You have siblings?”

I shook my head, frowning a bit. “No.”
