I played dumb. “Do what, baby?”
She gestured to the door and hissed, “You practically peed a circle around me.”
I shrugged. “I didn’t like the way he was looking at you, and you’re my fiancée.”
“Fake fiancée,” she snapped.
My teeth ground together at her statement. I closed the distance between us in two strides and bent my head so our faces were only inches apart.
“McKenna, you let me pop your cherry and spent last night with my cock buried inside your tight little pussy. This morning, you let me fuck you with my tongue until you screamed my name. You are mine.”
Her cheeks bloomed with pink, but her brown orbs heated, and she wasn’t able to hide the shiver that raced down her body. It took all my energy not to drag her off to the nearest room with a door and fuck her.
“Did you like me being jealous, McKenna? Did my possessive need to claim you make you wet?”
She shook her head, and I raised a single eyebrow. Then I shoved my hand under her skirt and slipped a finger inside her panties. A groan escaped my chest when the digit came away soaked. I sucked it clean, and her tits bounced as her breathing turned choppy.
“You can try to deny it, but your body doesn’t lie, baby…”
“McKenna!”
We both froze at Corbin’s voice, and McKenna tried to step away, but I wouldn’t let her go. I allowed her to turn around, then threw my arm over her shoulders and tucked her into my side.
Corbin came around the corner, using a walker, but with a lot more color to his face than when I’d seen him a couple of days ago. “I thought I heard you.” He stopped, and his gaze bounced between his granddaughter and me. A look of surprise washed over his face, but a flicker in his eyes made me think he was hiding something.
“Grandpa, how are you?” McKenna’s voice was warm and filled with affection. Damn, I wanted to hear her talk to me like that.
“I’m better now that you’re here, my dear. Let’s go sit down. Then you can tell me all about why you and Mr. Bardot are here to have lunch with me…together.”
“Let me help you,” she said as she rushed toward him. Only because it was her grandfather did I let her go, and I immediately missed the feel of her soft body pressed against mine.
He batted her hands away. “I’m not an invalid, McKenna Sage,” he growled.
She huffed and crossed her arms over her chest, making the corners of my lips quirk up in amusement. “I guess you’re doing well. Mick said you’ll be walking with only the cane soon.”
I gritted my teeth at the mention of that little shit but was distracted by the sway of her hips and very fine ass as they walked ahead of me into the kitchen.
“Sit, Grandpa,” McKenna ordered, pointing at the round table with six chairs tucked into a nook with windows overlooking the beach. “I’ll get lunch.”
I placed my hand on her hip when I caught up to her. “I’ll get it, baby. Go spend time with your grandpa.”
McKenna’s face registered surprise, but her eyes softened. Then she giggled. “Do you know where anything is?”
I gave her a lopsided smile in return and winked. “I’m sure I’ll figure it out.” I gestured to the large island covered in cream granite with subtle black and gold swirls. On it were several take-out boxes.
“Come sit with me, my dear,” Corbin requested. “I’m sure Jeremy is capable of locating plates and silverware.”
I nudged McKenna toward the table and surreptitiously patted her sexy ass. She tossed me a warning look, and I just grinned. If she thought I was going to stop touching her just because her grandfather was here, she was very wrong.
McKenna sat across from Corbin and leaned forward, folding her arms on the table with her left hand visible. I glanced at my watch and wondered how long it would take—
“McKenna. What is that on your hand?”
Two point seven seconds.

MCKENNA
Although the entire purpose of this lunch was to tell my grandfather that Jeremy and I had fallen for each other at first sight, I was nervous now that he spotted the engagement ring. Gulping down the lump in my throat, I licked my lips and stretched my left arm across the table. “I’m not exactly sure why you told Jeremy that he needed to speak with me about the offer on this house, but it turned out to be a lucky decision because something unexpected happened.”
“Unexpected, hmm?” Grandpa echoed as he bent forward to examine the ring with an odd gleam in his eyes that made me second-guess our confidence in the belief that he hadn’t been trying to play matchmaker.
I tilted my head to the side, my eyes narrowing. “I know you talked Grandma into marrying you only days after you met, but our engagement broke even your record.”
