I heave out a sigh. “Thank you.” I blink rapidly, trying not to cry.
“Hey, stop that goddess.” His fingers trace lightly over my face. “I needed this. You’re the best medicine for me, healing all that ails me. Please don’t feel guilty for losing control and getting wrapped up in the pleasure.” He presses his lips gently to my forehead. “Everything that happened on this roof tonight, I wanted to happen. Needed it. Neededyou.”
My smile is watery as I stroke his jawline. “No regrets, huh?”
He shakes his head. “None for either of us.” He kisses me gently. “Now, how about we get dressed and go downstairs?”
Grateful he’s going to get checked out by a doctor, my smile grows. “Sounds good.” Cupping his face gently, I whisper, “I love you, WilliamandWill.”
His eyes brighten, drawing in the light from the stars above. “I love you Everleigh and Eve. My goddess of lightanddarkness.”

IholdEverleigh’shandin mine as we make our way to Maverick’s office. Everleigh fidgets beside me, smoothing down her hair, then tugging on her shirt.
Smirking, I lean over, my lips close to her ear. “No matter what you do, you can’t wipe that ‘I just got fucked good and hard’ look away.”
“Will.” She pushes against my arm, a faint pink blush covering her cheeks. It’s so fucking hot that my woman can beat someone’s ass, torture, and even kill them, but she blushes at the thought of everyone knowing she just received a good banging from me on the rooftop. “It’s just weird walking into Maverick’s office like this. He stares at me enough whenever he sees me.”
A growl comes from deep within my chest. “And if he fucking does it today, I’ll beat his fucking face in.”
Her smile widens, her earthy eyes sparking. “So possessive.” She stops in the stairway, turning and facing me. One hand slowly works its way over the grooves of my abs and up my chest. Her gaze follows her fingertips, then flicks up to mine. “It’s hotter than hell.”
Lowering my head, I stop when my lips are a breath away from hers, so close, yet not touching. “If you don’t stop touching me like that, I’ll bend you over and fuck you again.”
She cocks her head, her voice flirty and breathy. “Is that supposed to discourage me?” Her fingers keep trailing over my skin, stained with blood.
I raise my brows. “You’ll be uncomfortable sitting tomorrow.”
She presses her body tighter against mine. “Sitting is overrated.”
A loud laugh escapes me as I tighten my arm around her, turning her and continuing down the stairs. “If our friends weren’t waiting, I’d take you up on that offer.” When she looks up at me, I wink at her. “Wait until we get home.” My voice is deep and low, causing her to shudder slightly, just like I knew it would.
“I’m holding you to that.” Her eyes sparkle with desire.
“You don’t have to worry, love. Ialwayskeep my promises to you.”
Maverick shakes my hand, a smile on his face. “That was a helluva fight, Will. Impressed the hell out of me. Although I’m sorry he decided to be a cheating asshole.” His gaze moves to Everleigh. “But your woman had your back.”
I bristle, my spine snapping straight, angered by him looking at her, and reminding me of the way she put herself and our babies in danger. “She shouldn’t have endangered herself. Especially since she’s pregnant with my children,” I snap.
Maverick’s smile widens as his eyes lock with mine. “Dad mentioned that to me. He stepped out to use the restroom, but he watched your fight. Impressed the hell out of him.” He stares at me for a few beats before continuing. “He knew Everleigh would beat Savage Rob’s ass when he cheated, then stabbed you. His words were, ‘Stupid fucker has a death wish,’ then he shook his head like he pitied the bastard.”
Everleigh’s shoulders were tense from my words, but now they pull back from pride. “At least he has faith in my abilities,” she mutters.
My gaze snaps to her face. “I have complete faith in your abilities, love. I just don’t relish the thought of you recklessly jumping into danger, especially when you’re pregnant with my girls. And I won’t apologize for it.”
“Will,” Everleigh admonishes me. “We don’t know for certain we are having twin—”
“We are,” I interrupt, my tone firm and leaving no room for argument. “We’re having twin girls.”
Maverick chuckles, putting his hand on my shoulder. “Sorry, Everleigh, but I’m with Will. This guy has an uncanny ability to know things before the rest of us. If he says you’re having twin girls…” He shrugs, removing his hand.
Everleigh chuckles, looking up at me. “Willalwaysgets what he wants.”
“That’s right.” Grabbing her, I bend her backward slightly, my forehead pressing against hers. “Don’t forget it, goddess,” My voice is low and comes out as a slight growl, making her breath hitch as she blinks up at me. I cover her mouth with my lips, kissing her until she’s breathless. Slowly breaking the kiss, I stand her upright, taking in her slightly dazed expression.
