“Shoot.”

“Tell me you didn’t leave our babies home alone?”

His chest began to quake silently.

This girl.His girl.

Texas’ mouth split in a grin and then he started to laugh and didn’t stop even when his cute girl started poking him in the ribs because he knew absolutely now he’d gotten himself pussy-whipped and couldn’t rally himself to care. He fucking loved it, in fact.

“It’s not funny, Tait. What if Glenn Coco climbs out on the fire escape and runs away from home?”

“Just like his mom,” he went on laughing.

Then he went about loving his girl some more.

“Tait?”

“Yeah, baby?”

“I promise you’ll never have another lonely Christmas again now that I’m here.”

Fuck, his girl unraveled him and put him back together again.

He didn’t know he’d been working his way to redeeming himself until she gave him a purpose for really living again.

He lost his cut and patch and that would sting him forever but when Texas looked at the bigger picture, he wasn’t unhappy like he was.

He’d bought his old lady, but she’d given him everything.

She’d brought him back.

And he was going to love her forever.

Weeks later – Valentine’s Day trip

The thud of her ass hitting the softly laid snow could be heard, she was sure, clean across the mountain as Tait doubled over with laughter as Poppy huffed and flung snow at him, it didn’t even remotely hit her mark.

He was too wily was her Tait.

Just as well that she chose to wear a Day-Glo pink padded snowsuit because it meant she didn’t feel a thing and she rolled to her knees. “You don’t play fair, Tait Hunt,” she accused and readjusted her double pom-pom wool hat as he approached and offered a hand. Grinning like a fool.

They were in Denver on a date weekend, staying at an exclusive chalet where they could ski (she skied, he watched her) and drink tons of hot cocoa but most of all they had sex in a hot tub and a massive bed.

“Little girl, blowjobs for a week are at stake, I play to win.”

She laughed at his cheek but used the momentum when he lifted her from the ground to push him over into the snow, but of course, Tait held her waist and took her down with him. She fell in a clumsy heap on top of him, laughing like a loon as he used a glove hand to protect her head. “Didn’t know I had a cheater in my bed,” he grinned and something lovely happened to her stomach when she saw it.

The same as it did with each new smile he gave her.

“Oral sex prizes go both ways, Hunt. I want to win too.”

Before she knew it, she was rolled beneath him in the snow and his mouth was devouring hers like he was a barbarian in the desert and he’d just found a free vending machine.

She swallowed his manly sounds as they drove down her throat.

Her beautiful man looking at her with wickedness in his gaze.
