Share Us
This attraction between us is too magnetic and irresistible.
I decide to share my decision with a kiss rather than words. Shifting, Cole’s neck strains, adding more pressure, deepening the intensity. Him telling me everything he feels without speaking, right back.
His tight hold on my cheek never wavers. The familiar calluses on his strong hands hold me, never letting go.
Both of us are humming with hot energy as we break apart.
“You know that speech of yours, although nice, was unnecessary.”
The lust in those pupils of his morph with record-breaking speed. Those normally clever eyes of his widen, flaring as my mouth curves higher. The expression is one uses to destroy an enemy.
“How so?” Disappointment coats his every word. Not at what I said but because we are talking, to begin with. He wasn’t done kissing me. The twitch of his mouth the reminder of that.
“Didn’t you know?” My voice is honeyed as I flutter my lashes. “You had me at please.”
He yanks, fisting the center of my shirt, and my breath hitches. That familiar pressure building between my legs at his predatory stare. That confident smirk.
A sharp hiss pushes out, the more the color in his pupil’s shade to the color of frost.
Growling, that plump mouth of his slams back to mine. Slick and warm he glides his tongue before biting at my lower lip. He can’t get enough, and I don’t disagree.
I moan, not being able to help myself.
There’s nowhere else I’d rather be. His kiss tastes like something I never had before. Cole Kellet tastes like home.

Rory
Ileandownwiththe intention of giving Iceman a quick peck on the lips, but he has other ideas. His arms snake, wrapping around the swell of my waist. Pulling me closer, the same as yesterday.
One is never enough.
I squirm, making this all the more uncomfortable. It’s one thing leaning over the railing of his bed, but it was another to kiss him while also trying not to drop the vase of flowers I was holding.
“Baby, you know you didn’t have to get me those. I’m getting checked out today.”
My stomach is full of air bubbles at the newfound ease on his shoulders. For someone so injured, he’s more relaxed than ever.
“Good thing I brought them for Finn then.” I wink, dully, setting down the vase on the table between their beds.
Cole’s faux pout is as adorable as it is sinful. My core muscles clench. I knew he was in a playful mood but that smile of his that follows after surprises me. Flutters things in my belly.
For right now, he has too many injuries that need recovering before I’m willing to attempt to do anything other than make out. That doesn’t mean we didn’t get our fill last night before the other hellhounds returned from the “bathroom.”
“Earth to Rory. Calling for my lil sis, over,” Finn says, putting a hand to his mouth and muffling his words like he’s talking in a walkie.
The muscles in my back tense, embarrassed.
I mumble out a response letting him know I heard but I put too much attention into fixing the already perfect bouquet.
It also doesn’t help that the room is packed. Eli and Abram are here too but the most shocking visitor is Silas.
Straitlaced and rigid, he appears as uncomfortable as everyone else. For different reasons, but still, any room with Cole’s dad in it drops about twenty degrees automatically.
Abram’s the one who’d done it, something about parent-to-parent morals or something like that.
“Did you pick these out especially for me since Iamyour favorite?” Finn asks. He makes a show of flapping his lashes dramatically in Cole’s direction, goading him.
