“I’m not coming down your throat until I’ve knocked you up,” I growl and watch as she tears away her t-shirt and yoga pants. “I’m a lucky motherfucker.”
“Yes, you are. Now, get down here so I can show you how lucky you are.”
She doesn’t have to ask me twice.
We spend the entire night making up for the days we were apart. The sun is rising over the horizon before we finally exhaust ourselves.
The sound of my phone vibrating on the bedside table wakes me up sometime later.
I grab the fucker before it wakes up Lana and swipe the screen to see an early morning message and a new missed call from my goddess’ brother.
Zane
Please have my sister call me.
Me
She’s sleeping right now.
Zane
It’s 3:00 in the afternoon.
Me
I can tell time.
Zane
Fucking hell. Please just have her call me.
Me
I will when she wakes up.
I drop the phone back on the nightstand and slip out of bed to go make my goddess some breakfast.
I’m standing at the stove cooking eggs when her soft arms wrap around my waist from behind. “Good morning.”
I turn in her arms. “Good afternoon is more like it.” As I kiss her soft lips, she melts against me, and I forget all about the eggs cooking on the stove.
“Fuck,” I growl and quickly stir the eggs before they burn. “I hope you like your eggs slightly overcooked.”
“I’m so hungry, I could eat just about anything.” She pours us each a glass of orange juice while I finish the eggs and bacon.
It suddenly hits me that something is missing. “What did you do with the furball?”
“I had Zane and Celine babysit him.” When she mentions her brother, I realize I forgot to have her call the asshole.
“That reminds me.” Better late than never. “Your brother wants to hear from you.”
“Shoot.” My goddess jumps up and rushes to the front hall. A few moments later, she returns, digging in her purse. “I got here and threw myself into getting ready for you to come home and totally forgot to call him.”
“I’m glad I’m more important than your brother.”
“You’re more important than anything.” I sit back and pull her onto my lap while she calls her brother. I’m able to make out the entire conversation pretty much from her side alone.
Once she hangs up, I carry my goddess upstairs and practice knocking her gorgeous ass up.
TEN
LANA
When we finally come up for air, I decide it’s time to tell Jensen about my plans. “We need to discuss a few things.”
He sits back on the sofa and pulls me onto his lap. “What do you want to discuss?”
“Our plans for the future.” I lean back and stare into his dark eyes. “I can’t stand being away from you, so I talked to my brother. We’re going to hire a couple new attorneys to pick up the slack at the office. That will free me up to travel with you until the end of the season. If you want me to.”
“Of course, I want you to travel with me, but I don’t want your career to suffer.”
“I’ve been thinking long and hard, and I decided I’m ready for a little change in my career path.” Yesterday, I arrived in this adorable Texas town and instantly knew why Jensen loves it so much. “I want to stay in Silver Spoon Falls with you.” I haven’t worked it all out, but I’m hoping Zane agrees to us opening a new law office in town. I can handle all of Jensen’s rental businesses, and the new associates we hire back home can take over my clients.
“Are you sure you want to do that? How will it work?” Jensen doesn’t appear to be convinced I’ve thought this through.
“I’m going to take over dealing with your rental properties, and you’re going to figure out what you want to do after hockey.” It might not be as easy as it sounds, but I know we’re going to make it work.
“I love you so fucking much.” He pulls me close for his kiss, and I completely forget all about our discussion.
“I love you, too.”
Jensen leaves for another week of away games, and I stay behind to finish implementing our plans. Then I head home to supervise the movers while they pack up my apartment.
Once everything is packed up, I load up Rufus and head back to my new home in Silver Spoon Falls. My poor spoiled baby doesn’t handle the trip too well, and we end up stopping at nearly every rest area to let him run around.
We finally make it to our new home at two o’clock in the morning, and I don’t even bother unloading the car. I take Rufus on a quick walk around the huge backyard then drag his pouting rear up to the bedroom. My spoiled pooch resists when I attempt to convince him to sleep on the brand-new doggie bed Jensen bought him.
