“Ace and Regan know we’re down here. I’m sure they’ll be along any minute now,” Van reassured me. “I’ll send them a text anyway. Hopefully, it will go through at some point. We’ll have to wait for now and save our phone batteries.”
He tapped away on his phone and then shoved it back into his pocket.
I could barely make out his form in the darkness, but I reached for him, and he pulled me into his arms.
“This is not how I expected to spend this evening,” I confessed as I rested my head on his shoulder. “Not that I’m complaining. I’d rather be locked in a cold, dark room with you than anywhere else.”
His husky laugh warmed me. “You took the words right out of my mouth.”
CHAPTER22
VAN
Iwas panicking.
It had nothing to do with the fact that I’d had been intimate with a man for the first time.
No, my anxiety was all about being locked in a room with no power and no means of communication. I was always in touch with someone on the crew. Hell, my phone was like another extension of my body at this point.
Without it, I felt naked.
And speaking of naked… I replayed my first kiss with Brodie. And everything that came after.
No question, it was the best sex of my entire life. And I wanted more with him. So much more.
But right now his safety was top of mind. It was the only thing keeping me grounded.
No matter what, Brodie’s well-being was my priority.
We managed to stumble around in the dark and find a couple of chairs to sit on. And I located the mini fridge in the corner. At least we had bottles of water and a few snacks.
I was confident that Regan would come looking for us in the next while.
I hoped.
Then again, I didn’t know if the power was off in the entire building or what the hell was going on.
“This reminds me of a time when I was a student and traveled back home to visit my folks,” I whispered in the dark. “Did I ever tell you about the infamous ice storm in Montreal?”
“No.”
I couldn’t see Brodie in the darkness, but I felt him all right.
Every delectable inch of him.
Instead of sitting in his own chair, he moved to my lap, and I wrapped him up in my arms.
“I’d come back home for Christmas break. 1998.”
“The dark ages, how appropriate,” Brodie teased.
I reached down and pinched his ass.
“Do you want to hear this or not?”
“Of course,” he replied as he wiggled in my lap.
My dick should be exhausted after two orgasms, but apparently not around Brodie.
