“What are you going to do about it?”
He reaches on either side of him, and the arms of the chair fall away as if released. He tugs down his zipper, revealing a hard and ready cock. He pins me with his devilish gaze. “I’m going to let you seduce me, of course.”
I hop out of his lap long enough to shimmy down the top of his jeans and reposition myself in his lap, this time taking him inside my slick heat. Moaning in delight as the world finally sets itself to right again. “Did I tell you the part that I love you?” I say between whimpers, taking him in inch by delicious inch.
“You did.”
I snap my gaze to his. “And?”
Declan lets out a laugh as he pushes up my shirt, his hand scooping beneath my bra. “I love you, too.” He upthrusts hard, filling me the rest of the way. My eyes roll back in my head. “I love you so fucking much, Cassidy. And I’ll spend every day for the rest of our lives proving it. Starting right now.”
EPILOGUE
ABOUT TWO MONTHS LATER…
DECLAN
“Remind me why the movers aren’t lifting this heavy-ass bookcase again,” Micah hollers at me from the top of the staircase. The solid wood bookshelf weighs a fucking ton, but there’s no way in hell I’m letting strangers touch the most important possession that’ll be going into our new home.
“Because my great grandpa built this, and I’ll be damned if anyone scratches it.”
“And if I scratch it?” he asks with a heavy grunt.
“Then I’ll help him bury the body,” Avery announces in a sing-songy voice as we make it down to the first floor. She’s standing off to the side, snapping pictures to commemorate this occasion.
“Thanks, bestie,” Micah groans as we keep moving toward the front door.
“You can always count on me,” she hollers after him.
Once the bookcase is safely placed on the heavy blanket layer on the bed of my truck, I finally let myself catch my breath. That fucker is heavy. But it’s the perfect piece for the library Cassidy and I are creating in our new place. She’s only told me that a hundred times since we put in the offer on the house.
“You going to be good without me?” I ask Micah, nudging him right in the ribs.
“Don’t pretend you’re not going to miss me.”
“I meant with Avery. You two, all alone.” Maybe Avery thinks the two of them are just best friends, but I know better. Micah’s been in love with her since college. “I won’t be there to be a buffer anymore.”
Micah gets a goofy grin on his face. “I have a plan, man. A real, solid plan.”
“To win over Avery?”
“Yeah.” He seems on the verge of spilling his entire strategy, but is cut off by my beautiful wife’s arrival.
I clap him on the shoulder. “I’ll meet you at my house to unload this bookshelf.”
“In an hour?”
One look at Cassidy’s sparkling eyes and I cave. As eager as I am to get this bookshelf in its new home, there’s a lot I can do with an hour alone with my wife. “Make it two.”
“Hey you.” Cassidy walks right up to me, standing between my feet, and grabs my cheek. I meet her eager lips and nearly forget where the hell we are. Our tongues move together as my arm goes around her lower back. She’s wearing a fucking skirt again. I’d bet my last dollar she’d say all her panties are packed in a box somewhere.
“You trying to kill me, Mrs. Maxwell?”
Cassidy flashes me a wicked grin. “God, I love how that sounds.”
We didn’t wait long to tie the knot. Cassidy was insistent she didn’t want a big wedding. Just a quick courthouse ceremony followed by a reception at The Book Cellar with our friends and family. She underestimated how many Maxwells in Daisy Hills would show up, but we made it work by extending the party onto the street and blocking it off.
I thought it would spook her to know her family exploded overnight, but she embraced it with open arms.
“We have two hours,” I say with a growl against her ear. “Where do you want me to take you?”
“How about on our new bed?” Her green eyes sparkle up at me, the desire dancing wickedly in those beautiful orbs. “It just got delivered.”
“Get in the truck.” I kiss her hard on the mouth once, feeling the blood rush to my dick. “Now.”
