A breath bursts out of his nostrils, and he grins, sweeping me up into his arms and squeezing me too hard.

I squeak, and he finally releases me before kissing me again, passionately, desperate now where it was slow and sensual before.

“I love you so much, princess. I want you so bad.”

He slides off my panties, tossing them to the floor before undressing himself, standing up and nearly falling over when he takes off his socks.

I giggle at him and spread my thighs, reaching down between my legs to tease my clit with my index finger.

“Hurry up before I finish without you.”

He makes a growling sound in the back of his throat and jerks me to him with his hands on my ankles. He slips my knees around his biceps, pressing into me slowly and deeply.

“Logan,” I breathe.

“Meredith…” He leans down to kiss me as he thrusts into me, moaning against my lips.

He’s sovocalright now, loud in a way he isn’t normally.

I’m already headed toward another orgasm. Number five? Six?

I cry out when he hits my sweet spot. Thank God this house is well-insulated.

“I love you.” The words come out before I know what I’m saying, and tears spring to my eyes.

His gaze flicks to mine, and there are tears in his, too.

“I love you too, princess. I always have. I always will.”

When I come again, it hits me like a freight train, and I don’t realize he’s coming too until he is pulsing, spilling inside me.

He collapses on top of me, and I make an ‘oof’ sound that makes him laugh.

He slowly rolls off me, lying on his back, and I instantly cuddle up next to him, pressing my ear against his chest, loving the sound of his rapid heartbeat.

He’s breathing hard, and I can see the start of purple bruising on his ribs and stomach.

I trace my fingers along it, and he winces.

I look up at him. “I hate to say this, baby, but we may need to visit the doctor.”

“Tomorrow.” He yawns and winces as it likely hurts his ribs.

I nod. “Tomorrow.”

He falls asleep before I do, and I can’t stop looking at his handsome face, tracing the line of his jaw with my eyes like it’s the first time I’ve ever seen him.

It feels like it, because now he’s not just some secret I have to keep, someone I steal weekends with. Now he’smine, body and soul, and I belong to him, too.

I don’t know if life can get any better.

ChapterThirty-Four

LOGAN

I wakeup with a start to the daylight streaming in the window. I bolt upright, realizing slowly where I am, and panic rises up my throat.

I have to get out of here before?—
