I stood up and moved around the table so I could pull her into my arms. Just feeling her pressed against me again made breathing easier. “Memphis King, of some trailer park in Georgia, can the three of us move in with you and raise our babies together?”
“You did not just bring the trailer park into this.” She rolled her eyes even as she wrapped her arms around my neck. “Oh, wow. This is going to take some getting used to. Our daughter is already a cockblock.”
I shook my head at her. “You can’t call our daughter a cockblock.”
“If Boone can tell me he loves me after I say I have gas, I can call our daughter a cockblock. All’s fair in love and gas.” She looked over at Boone and smiled. “I love you, too, by the way. It’s not cute gas, though. Y’all might want to wait to move in until this passes.”
“Stop talking about your gas. I’m trying to tell you I love you.” I laughed at the annoyed look on her face.
“This is not a romantic declaration of love, y’all. We’re going to have to tell our grandbabies one day that y’all told me you loved me over a conversation about my gas.” She stomped her foot. “This is so embarrassing.”
“I love you, sweetheart.” I pressed my lips to hers gently, savoring the feeling I’d been missing. “Tell me you love me now.”
She giggled against my lips. “I love you, Wells.”
I growled. “That’s mean.”
“Fine, you big baby. I love you. I love all of you and nothing I tried to do to stop it worked, so I guess it’s here to stay. Congratulations.” She tugged at my hair. “You had butterflies?”
I closed my eyes and nodded. “Still do.”
Boone clapped his hands as he stood up, drawing our attention. “I can be packed and ready to go in ten minutes.”
Memphis frowned. “Where are you going?”
I leaned closer and whispered against her ear. “We’re still doing the kidnapping plan.”
“And it involves not telling you where we’re going.” Wells stood up and pressed a kiss to Memphis’s shoulder. “You don’t need to worry about clothes, though.”
“I can’t just leave, y’all. I have a cat now. Carter and I bonded. He’s not a fan of y’alls, so I don’t know how he’s going to feel about you moving in. I also have my call with Knox. And Jake promised me he was going to get me a copy of this really funny thing we did one time. We have plans to watch it together with Bea.”
I blew out a sigh. “You don’t understand kidnapping, do you?”
Her mouth stretched into a wide smile. “Fine. But someone has to take care of Carter.”
Boone grunted. “I think I heard Jake volunteer.”

***Memphis***
“Asyouknow,I’mthe best brother with the biggest dick and the biggest brain. To firm up my position in the lead, I present to you a little one man show called I know who sent those women to our house.”
I looked up from my lounge chair at Boone and grinned. “Come closer and show me, oh humble one.”
He wagged his eyebrows. “The dick, the smarts, or the show?”
I pretended to consider my options. “For right now, I’ll have the show.”
“Fine. I could’ve done all three at the same time, though.” He sat next to me and scooted closer. Without me having to ask, he picked up a bottle of sunscreen and warmed it in his hands before massaging it into my skin. “Charlie Dickbreath Brennan made a call to a not so legal brothel and arranged for the ladies to visit us. I don’t know what he thought he’d accomplish, but he used an illegal phone in jail to call an illegal brothel. So, he’s brilliant. Jake’s buddy on the force took the snapshot we sent of the women and it didn’t take long to work out the details, especially since Charlie bragged to the lady at the brothel that he was Charlie Dickbreath Brennan and he was sending the ladies to his rich friends’ house.”
I cackled. “No! What a moron.”
“Yep. I’m impressed by his ability to fail.” He leaned over and kissed me. “His biggest failure was letting you go. Have I mentioned how hot you are?”
I cringed. “Stop it. I can see myself right now and it’s not great.”
Remy appeared on the deck and sent me a look that made my insides quiver. “I was hoping you’d say that. Stand up, sweetheart.”
