The only sign he felt unsure of himself was the muscle ticking above one eye. “Good thing I thought about this.”
“Seriously? When?”
“Last night, while I laid in your arms, I knew I couldn’t be without you anymore. And Brad, well, after what he’s been through, he’ll understand needing to be with the one I love.”
“Damn, that was easier than I expected.” He grinned, lifted her up, and spun her around before walking back toward the bedroom.
She squealed and grasped him around the neck. “What are you doing?”
“Taking you to bed.” He had her down, clothes off, and cuffed to the bed before she could blink. She immediately became hot and aroused.
“Glad to see some things don’t change.” Decklan laughed. “I’ll always want a little kink. How about you?”
“Always,” she said in a soft purr, her body already softening for him. Not her ni**les, those were tight peaks. “What about the hospital visit?” she asked in a needy voice.
“We’ll get there. I promise. I just want to celebrate.” He pulled his shirt over his head, giving her a good look at his gorgeous, tanned skin and muscles she’d felt over and over last night.
“What are we celebrating?” she asked, rolling her hips in a blatant bid for attention.
His eyes dilated. “We’re celebrating forever, baby. That’s what we’re celebrating.”
And that was perfectly fine with her.
