I smile up at the sky, turning my head to meet his kiss. Our lips crush together, and he stills on top of me, his body vibrating as he drinks me in… then can’t hold it anymore.

Ripping his mouth off mine, he rises on his hands, plowing into me over and over until I can’t contain my cries.

The lusty sounds punching out of me probably scare the wildlife away, but I can’t care right now.

There is only this.

Only us.

Yes!

He plunges deep, jerking back and then plunging again, the energy sizzling through his body reaching right inside me.

I feel that moment when he finally lets go. His release spurts into me, his body frenetic over mine until that high starts to fade and he sinks over me, lightly dropping kisses from my forehead down to my lips.

I giggle and he covers my smile with his mouth, his tongue gliding over mine with a tenderness that makes my chest swell all over again.

When he pulls back to gaze down at me, I show him everything. Every ounce of the love I have for him pours out of my eyes.

And he sees it.

He matches it.

With twitching lips, he leans down to brush his lips against mine, softly whispering, “Cosmic energy.”

“The bee and the bear.” I giggle before disappearing into his kiss.

CHAPTER 67

GRADY

Blake’s at her job interview right now, and I can’t stop thinking about her.

Wily hooked it up for her. He heard from his high school buddy Liam that his girlfriend was looking to hire a cleaner to help now that the villa is taking off.

He jumped all over it, arranging the interview, and man, I hope Blake’s okay. She was raised in privilege, so she doesn’t really know how to get her hands dirty. I’ve been cleaning my house since I was eight. And, for once, I’m actually grateful for that fact. I’ve been able to show Blake how to do the basics, and she’s smart enough to pick anything else up along the way.

She was so nervous about going, but her father called just before she left. The second I saw his number, my stomach scrunched into a tight knot. Blake gave me an edgy smile before clearing her throat and answering the call.

“Hey, Daddy.”

“Hey, bean.” She put it on speaker so I could listen in,and I moved around my room, getting changed in stealth mode so he couldn’t hear me.

Blake smirked when I dropped my pajama bottoms and swapped them out for a pair of boxer briefs.

The heat in her blue gaze nearly took me out on the spot, so I had to turn away and focus on my bedroom wall, commanding my dick to calm the hell down. But that wasn’t happening.

“I just wanted to wish you luck for your interview.” Her father’s voice was thick with emotion, and I stilled, wondering what’d be coming next.

“Really?” Blake’s voice perked up in surprise. “Thanks.”

“Honey, of course I want to wish you luck. We do support you, you know.”

“Yeah… I… Thank you.”

There was a pause as I slipped my boxers on, then spun to face her.

She gave me a cringing, helpless look, and all I could do was shrug.
