The bathroom door opened, and he walked out in all his naked, muscled glory. She darted a look below his waist and saw his erection didn’t seem to have gone down.

With each step he took, the chiseled lines of his body made her hot and bothered all over again. By the time he crawled into bed with her, she was more than eager to feel him against her.

She felt a little shy about cuddling up to him, but he rolled onto his side and tucked her under his chin without any pause.

She let out a low sigh.

He kissed her forehead. “Better, baby?”

She nodded.

“What do you suppose other couples do after their wedding?”

“Hmm.” She tipped her head up to look at him. “Take a shower, have a snack and fall asleep? Or talk about all the wedding guests?”

He chuckled. “Probably. So what would you like to start with?”

“Let’s talk about Jennings.”

He gave a start. “My brother? Why him?”

“Because every time I looked at him, he was giving you this big grin.”

He snorted. “Little brother teasing me. He’s the last Abel without one of these.” He held up his hand to show off the thick gold band on his ring finger.

The dusting of dark hair on his knuckle made her shiver with fresh desire. “Your turn. Who do you want to talk about?”

“I’d say the woman who married us.”

“Are you saying you’re surprised that a woman did it?”

“Not at all. I had to question why she was wearing two different boots, though.”

She gaped at him. “You’re kidding me.”

“Nope. One brown, one black. Looked to be the same style.”

A giggle rose in her throat. She twisted her face into his shoulder to stifle it.

“Your turn.” He brushed his fingers down her spine.

She hesitated but only for a heartbeat. She had to get this off her chest. “Lark.”

“Okay, what about her?”

“Well…she said something.”

“What was it?”

She swirled a fingertip over his pec. “She said she’s surprised it was you who got to the altar before Clay.”

He blew out a breath through his nostrils. “I haven’t known most of the guys on the Sentry team or the women they’re with for very long. But in the time they’ve known me, I’ve never been with a woman.”

She blinked at him. “Never?”

“No. Had no one important to bother bringing to chicken wing nights or card games. I guess that since they haven’t seen me with a woman, they assumed I wasn’t going to fall so easily.”

She sucked in a quick breath.
