“So, is it more than ten?” he asks, meeting my eyes.
I gasp. “No! Oh my God. I’m not a freak,” I say, laughing.
“Well, I needed a ballpark number to start with, so I didn’t think too high or too low,” he explains, but I’m already lost in the way his body feels against mine.
“It’s five, okay?” I nearly shout. “I’ve given myself five orgasms in a row before. I’d just watched a bunch of porn I found on some random Tumblr account and once I got myself all worked up, I just kept going.”
“Fuck, that’s hot,” he says while teasing my clit with his tongue.
“Not really,” I say, shifting my hips so they’re angled right where I need his mouth. “I ended up pulling a calf muscle and it hurt like a bitch for a week.”
He begins laughing and even throws his head back to control himself. I grind my teeth together, letting him know I don’t approve of his laughing at me. “That’s the best thing I’ve ever heard.”
I try to fight it, but end up laughing with him. “You suck.”
“Sweetheart...” he says softly. “I think it’s cute, okay? You giving yourself orgasms led to a sex injury.”
“Yeah, it’s adorable,” I deadpan, not the least bit amused.
“I think so. It’s a story for the grandkids one day.” He flashes a knowing smile and winks.
“You’re awful, Drew Fisher! Our grandkids will never ever hear that story, you hear me?”
He crawls back up my body and presses a sweet kiss to my lips. “We’ll see. But they might want to know about what it’s like to meet your soul mate one day.”
“You believe in soul mates?” I arch a brow, impressed.
“No.”
I narrow my eyes, confused.
“That doesn’t mean they won’t,” he explains. “I don’t believe in soul mates, but if I did, there’d be no doubt in my mind you’d be mine.”
I’m so overfilled with emotion that I don’t even know how to respond. I cup his cheeks and pull his face closer, expressing it all into that one deep kiss. I love this man so fucking much.
“You’d be mine, too,” I tell him. “I’ll be sure to tell our grandkids it just took you longer to come around.” I grin.
He laughs. “I had a feeling you were never going to let me live that down.”
“Never.”
He towers over me and presses kisses all along my jawline and neck, making the temptation even harder to deny. I want his hands and mouth on me all the time and sometimes the feelings I have for him become overwhelming and I don’t know what else to do but just smile at him and thank God for bringing us together.
Just as quickly as his sweet kisses began, they abruptly end when he pulls us off the bed and walks to his nightstand for his spare cuffs. He holds them up proudly with one finger.
“Now...time to shake some walls and break some records.”
CHAPTER THIRTEEN
DREW
I can’t believe the last few weeks passed by so quickly and we’re leaving for Texas in just a few hours for Benita’s baby shower. Weeks have passed and Mia has almost turned into a distant memory—for now. I haven’t stopped looking over my shoulder or double-checking locks. Above all else, it’s important my girl stays safe. The cameras we’ve installed have done their job thus far, and I’ll be watching them while we’re away since Buddy is staying with Kayla. Though there are days where I’m the one protecting him from his own shadow, I’ve grown to love his shaggy face, dog breath, and how he thinks he can sit on my lap like a puppy.
Once we’re at the airport and make it through security, we grab some coffee and wait at the gate until boarding.
“So, have you thought anymore on that last house we looked at?” Courtney asks and then takes a sip of her coffee. Her bright blue eyes stare straight into mine, sending a jolt of electricity to soar through me.
“The one with the big backyard, huge kitchen, and the bathtub that can fit us both?”
Her lips curl into a sweet smile and she nods. “Yes, that one.”
“I really like it. I think there’s a lot of room for us to grow and would be perfect for a starter family.”
She tucks her lips inside her mouth and a hint of blush hits her cheeks. Lately I’ve found myself talking more about a forever with her because a future without her doesn’t exist for me.
“I agree.” She nods. “And it’s really close to Viola and Travis, so we’ll get to see the kids even more.” She grabs my hand and squeezes. “I just have a really good feeling about it.”
“I do, too,” I say truthfully. It checks most of the boxes on our dream list and it’s within our budget. “You think we should put in an offer?”
