I opened my legs and lifted my hips. Trev held himself over me with one hand planted beside my head. The other hand still had my wrists. I watched his mouth go slack and his eyes close as he sank inside me with a low, deep groan in his chest.

“Fuuuck, this is the way to wake up.”

“I’ve never had morning sex,” I breathed.

“Me neither.”

A laugh escaped me. “Sure you haven’t.”

He stilled and looked down at me. “If I wake up with a girl in bed with me, I am in a hotel, and I get the fuck gone.” He leaned down and brushed a kiss over my lips. “You’re the first girl I’ve fucked on this bed, Lollipop. First one I’ve woken up to and wanted to fuck again.”

He needed to stop this. His words were getting to me. I had to keep sex and my heart separate. I just wasn’t sure I could anymore.

“Then, fuck me,” I said, lifting my hips to meet his thrust.

He gave me a wicked grin. “Always.”

The sun beat down as I walked with Trev to the stables. I had started asking questions about horses over breakfast, and when he found out I’d never been around them, he’d decided that was changing today. I wasn’t sure I wanted to ride one just yet, but I didn’t tell him that. I was afraid he’d turn it into his mission to convince me otherwise.

He had supplied me with riding boots and explained they were an old pair of his sister-in-law’s, and then he’d put one of his cowboy hats on me. I at least looked like I knew what I was doing, going to see the horses. A blonde woman walked out of the stables just as we reached it. She was stunning with platinum-blonde hair, curves, big boobs, and tanned skin.

“Morning, Maddy,” Trev said, and she turned to see us.

Maddy was the sister-in-law, and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t instantly relieved. I was already doing it. Getting jealous of other girls around Trev. This was a problem, and we’d just gotten started.

She turned her gaze to me and beamed brightly, only making her more attractive. “You must be Gypsi,” she said. “I’ve been wanting to meet you. I met your mom in Kentucky, but you were being kept busy with this one and Sax.”

“It’s nice to meet you,” I replied.

“Maddy loved me first. Blaise stole her away and locked her in his dungeon. It was a tragic tale,” Trev sighed.

Maddy rolled her eyes. “Sure it was. And I wanted to be locked in that dungeon.”

Trev looked down at me. “Tell her who the better-looking brother is.”

I glanced back at Maddy. “Uh …” I didn’t know how to answer this.

“Lollipop, you’re letting me down here,” he urged.

“Well, it’s an awkward question.”

His eyebrows shot up. “Are you telling me you think Blaise is better-looking than me?”

I shook my head. “No, but, well, this is his wife, and I just met her. We might all be family soon—”

“Gypsi—or is it Lollipop?” Maddy said, shooting a knowing look at Trev, then turning back to me, smiling. “I’m used to him. He likes to stir the pot. But I’m glad you think Trev is the better-looking one. I’m possessive like that.” Then, she winked at me.

Trev let out a short laugh. “You’re possessive. Have you met my brother?”

Maddy blushed.

“Blaise’s obsession with his wife is borderline criminal,” Trev whispered as if she couldn’t hear him.

“And I like it,” she informed him.

“Because she likes criminals,” he continued to whisper.

She cocked an eyebrow at me. “Easy there. I hear you’re giving Gage a run for his money.”

Trev stilled beside me.

This time, Maddy laughed. “You’re a Hughes, Trev. It’s okay.”

He nodded, but whatever she’d meant by that bothered him.

Maddy seemed to notice it, too, and she took a step toward him and patted his arm. “I’ve never seen your brother so proud,” she said softly.

Trev seemed to relax a little, but he didn’t say anything.

“I’ve got to go get Cree and take him to his first dentist appointment. Wish me luck,” she said, then waved before walking out toward a luxury SUV.

“Let’s go see the horses,” Trev said to me, touching my back and leading me into the stables.

“Jeez,” I breathed, stopping inside and looking around.

“What?”

“This isn’t what I was expecting.”

“Why?”

I turned around, looking everywhere in awe. “It’s so nice; I’d live in here.”

He chuckled. “The horses who live here are worth a lot of money.”

“I can’t imagine what their rent is,” I teased.

“Come on, Lollipop. I’m starting you out easy. Sunshine isn’t a thoroughbred. She’s a quarter horse, and she’s retired from her barrel-racing rodeo days.”

“I thought all you had were racehorses.”

He shook his head. “We’ve got others too. We breed racehorses, but on a ranch this size, you need other horses. Sunshine was bought for Maddy. She doesn’t like riding the thoroughbreds.”
