“You okay, Ghost?” she whispers sleepily.
“Yeah,” I lie.
Which was dumb because the second she trails her hand down my chest like she normally does in her sleep, she can feel my sweat.
Her head pops up, and she slides off of Damien and crawls to the side of the bed. The man doesn’t wake up, just turns to spoon Alexi, who shoves him away immediately.
“What is it?” she asks in a low tone.
There’s no point in lying now.
“I dreamed about my father dying.”
She takes my hand in hers, letting silence fill the room. Her head rests on my shoulder, waiting while I sit with my pain and try not to replay it over and over in my head. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what I do.
“Let’s go see his grave when we get back. We could bring your mother flowers and sit with them.”
I kiss her head, loving her gentle heart.
“There will be a foot of snow on the ground when we return.”
She just shrugs. “So we will wear coats and bring hot cocoa.”
I smile, breathing her in. “That sounds perfect.”
The way she knows how to heal my heart so instinctively proves to me that someone out there made her for me. There is no other way to describe how perfect she is.
Alexi rolls off the bed behind us and walks over to join. The best part about him coming to be with us is that I don’t have to talk unless I really want to. And I find that tonight, I just want to focus on the good.
My father was not a good person for most of my life, but he tried in the end. I will hold onto that and treasure those moments. But I will not sit here and allow these thoughts to ruin my honeymoon.
“Alexi?”
“Yes?” Even in the dark, his blue eyes light up, ever the demon he claims to be.
“You didn’t fuck her.”
“I did not,” he agrees easily. “I was trying to prove that she is all of ours. Not just mine.”
I can see how much Damien’s insecurities got to him tonight. Alexi has worked hard to change and be who our family needs him to be. I can imagine that it didn’t feel good to hear doubt about that.
“Think you can take Daddy and me at the same time?” I ask Evie.
“If you promise to carry me to the bathroom to clean up after. Then, yes I am ready to ride both of your cocks. But don’t expect me to get out of bed tomorrow.”
“Sounds like a fair deal to me. Let’s see if we can make you come without waking Damien.”
I eye Alexi who glances back at a very passed-out Damien. Evie turns to him.
“You better cover my mouth, Batman. I might scream.”
He grins at her, his teeth sparkling in the moonlight. “Deal.”

My palms sweat as I walk up to the door. I love date nights with my girl, and I’ve been planning this for a while. I don’t know why, but I have been dreaming about this moment with her.
Turning the handle, I come face to face with one of the loves of my life. Evie is in a white crop top and black leggings as she pulls on her black running shoes.
