If I were being honest with myself, I was ecstatic that this change had come over him. It wasn't the first time I was grateful for Lottie and how she was opening our eyes.

She made us better men. Men that were worthy of her love and affection.

I pulled her close to me and kissed her temple. "I love you, baby girl."

She glanced up at me, a bright smile on her sleepy face. "I love you too. It's so nice to see him happy." She glanced at Andrei as he said his final goodbyes and hugged hisbabushkaand Viktor goodbye.

It wouldn't always be sunshine and rainbows, but we were on the right track. We'd do whatever was needed to support Andrei as he worked through this new chapter in his life.

But one thing was for certain.

It was damn nice to have family who loved you.

CHAPTER 25

Colby

Iopened the car door for Lottie and held out a hand to help her climb to her feet.

She placed a hand over her mouth as a yawn drew from her lips. "Sorry," she said after she sighed. "Guess the day kicked my butt a bit more than I thought it would."

I placed a hand on the small of her back and led her into the house. "Let's get you in bed, little one. You need to get your beauty sleep. Not that you need to get any more beautiful." I glanced down and smiled brightly. "If you were any more beautiful, it might hurt to look at you. Can't have that, now can we?"

Lottie snorted and slapped my chest playfully. "Stop being such a charmer."

When we got into the kitchen, I helped her out of her coat, and leaned down to nip at her neck. "Nope. Never."

"It's your night, isn't it?" The subtle tiredness in her eyes vanished as she licked her lips.

We'd settled into an easy routine living here at Kaleb's. Each of us had our own room. Perks of being rich and having a massive house, I suppose. It was nice having friends in high places.

We rotated nights where Lottie slept in our bed with us. We could use our night as we saw fit, provided Lottie consented.

"It is." I watched the motion of her tongue, wishing I could feel it on my cock. I wanted to see her on her knees for me. Hands behind her back as I fisted her hair and spilled down her pretty throat.

But I was a gentleman.

And my woman always got her pleasure first.

"How about we go up and take a shower?" I traced my fingertips along her cheek, to her neck, and over her collarbone. Goosebumps erupted in my wake, and a delicate shiver made her body quake against me. "I'll wash your hair and every inch of that pretty pale skin."

"I think that sounds like an excellent idea," she breathed and relaxed back into me.

Before she could react, I spun her around and threw her over my shoulder to carry her up the stairs.

The best part about this house was the unique layout. There were multiple master suites, and each bedroom we'd claimed had en suite bathrooms.

A fact I was very thankful for as I set Lottie on the counter to turn on the water in the shower. Kaleb had remodeled all the bathrooms before he moved in, so each was similar in size and amenities.

"It's really great Andrei is reconnecting with his family." Lottie swung her legs back and forth while waiting for me to prepare everything. "Maxim and Sofia are really good kids, and Sergei is hilarious."

"They are, and I'm happy to." I stood before her and gently drew the clip out of her hair to let the strands fall around her face in soft waves. "You're so fucking beautiful it makes me ache."

A mischievous look entered her eyes as her fingers worked on the buttons of my shirt. "I think I know which part is the onethat aches." Once she freed the last button, her hands splayed out over my chest.

Lottie nibbled on her bottom lip as she slid her hands down toward the waistband of my pants.

"You think you know, huh?" I rasped, my voice thick with lust. My cock was aching inside my slacks, her hands being so near but separated by layers of fabric.
