I feel it. I’m going to come again. When he hooks his fingers inside of me while sucking my clit into his mouth, I’m done for. This orgasm is more powerful than the last. I lie there unable to move. Charles puts my feet back on the ground as he nuzzles the insides of my thighs. He kisses and sucks them the same way he did when he was pulling those mind-blowing orgasms from me.
When I feel him shift, I open my eyes. He lifts me, pulling me to the center of the bed before putting the blanket over me.
“Wait. That's it? Aren't we going to—” My shy side begins to come back.
“Not right now. I've got some stuff to tend to.” Before I can respond, he’s already out the door. It makes me feel cheap, which is stupid because I was the one who got off. Not only once but a few times. His quick departure leaves me feeling confused.
And men say women are hard to read.

CHARLES
“What’s going on with all these women and you holing up in your room?” Tiernan pulls some milk from the fridge. “And not just you. I haven’t seen Diego or Barrow since you got back.” He pours himself a glass, probably only because I’m standing right here watching. Tiernan’s a drink-from-the-container-guy like an asshole otherwise. “Hey, are you sure this isn’t some sort of setup?”
“No one knows we’re here.” I start pulling food from the fridge and then grab the bread from the pantry.
“We covered our tracks, sure, but between the four of us, there are plenty of people who want our heads. And now a trio of women show up right before we get snowed in? That doesn’t strike you as odd?”
I arrange a sandwich for Clover, making sure to only pick the best slices of ham and the thickest piece of cheese. “It wasn’t a setup. It was Leonard being his furry-ass self, as usual.”
“He’s always a jerk.” I roll my eyes and go back to my sandwich.
Tiernan snorts. “I was looking forward to roasting that bird.”
“Later.” I cut Clover’s sandwich across diagonally. “I’ll get a turkey once the storm is over.”
Tiernan watches as I arrange the sandwich on a plate, then turn it so it looks better. Tiernan arches a brow.
“What?” I gripe, then grab some Cheetos from the pantry.
Tiernan grins. “Making a sandwich for a girl you just met. This is already getting serious.”
He’s right. It is. I’d taken that innocent little thing back to my room and made a meal out of her. What’s worse, I want to do it again. I want to lick and suck on her tender flesh, gorge myself on her and then bury myself balls deep. But I can’t. She’s too good for a man like me. Too damn pure. I could tell it when I was fingering her tight slit—she’s a virgin.
“That look was pretty dark. What’s going on, man?” Tiernan finally cuts the shit and leans onto the granite island, his gaze on me. “Is this girl … special?”
I nod.
He whistles.
“I know. It’s crazy, and if I didn’t know better, I’d think it was a setup, too. A woman like Clover just dropping into my lap? Seems impossible. But it isn’t.” I think back to that shadow I saw on the ridge. “But you’re right on some level.”
“How’s that?” He reaches for a Cheeto, and I slap his hand away.
“When I was hiking down to the wreck, I saw a shadow up on the ridge opposite me. At first, I thought it was Leonard, but now …” I tap my fingers on the counter. “Now I think there might be more to it.”
“One of our enemies?” He sighs.
I flip the coffeemaker on and set it to brew. “Could be. Not sure yet. But keep an eye open, all right? I don’t want any surprises.”
“You’ve already gotten the biggest one of your life.” He jerks his chin toward the sandwich.
He’s right about that. I never saw Clover coming, but from the moment I glimpsed her, I can’t seem to think of anything else. I want to know every single thing about her, and I’m aiming to start now. When will it end? I hope the answer to that question is ‘never.’
Smitten.I chuckle to myself.
“Get going. She’s waiting. And I want to see how all this plays out.” He grins, then turns to leave. “I’ll check all the cameras and do a stroll around the lodge.” He points to the window. “Weather’s perfect for a stroll.”
