“I’m going to fix that, but first, tell me what’s wrong.”
“Nothing is wrong. Alyssa and I were just chatting. She actually offered to keep Ada tonight to give us some time alone.”
“That was nice of her.”
“She told me to talk to you about it and let her know.”
“How do you feel about it?”
“I’ve never left her overnight.”
“Then we won’t.”
“But I know that’s not realistic. I know she’ll be safe with them. They’re your family.”
“Our family,” he corrects me.
“What are you thinking?”
“I’m thinking that I don’t have a strong preference either way. I’m still going to be buried balls deep inside your pussy when we get home later.”
“Mav!”
He laughs. “Really, angel, I’m deferring to you on this. If you’re not ready, that’s okay. She’s our daughter.” He shrugs. “She should be with us, but I also know that her aunts and uncles want to spend time with her. As the kids get older, I’m sure they’re going to be asking for sleepovers.”
“I’m sure.”
He leans in and presses his lips to mine. “Your call, Stel.”
“While I appreciate the offer, I don’t want to confuse her. We went from staying at my grandparents’ place to staying at yours. Maybe next time?”
“Yeah, that way she’ll be used to the fact that my place is home.”
“What?”
“The two of you are moving in. We’ll work on finding our forever home to raise our family, but for now, you’re moving in. In the meantime, Merrick’s old room will be Ada’s.”
“Are you sure that you want us to move in with you?” I don’t know why I ask. I know the answer. I guess old habits die hard.
He laughs. Not just ha-ha funny, but full-on belly-shaking, head-tilted-back laughter. “Yeah, angel, I want my girls to move in with me. What do you think this week has been?”
I shrug. “I don’t know. New relationship getting acquainted and stuff?”
“Nope. You’re moving in. We’ll go tell your grandparents tomorrow, or tonight when we leave here if you want.”
This is my future. I’ll never question his intentions again. Maverick and I are forever, and I’m ready to start our future together. “Tomorrow is fine. I kinda want that other thing you mentioned tonight.”
“What’s that?” He smirks. He leans closer, placing his lips next to my ear. “You want my cock buried balls deep in that pussy?”
I cross my legs to alleviate the ache between my thighs from his words. “Yes. That.”
“Anything you want, angel.”
I thank Alyssa and Sterling for the offer and explain my reasoning, reassuring them that I know my daughter would be safe and well cared for with them. We say goodbye to the birthday boy and head home.
Home.
Maverick Kincaid is my home.
“She’s sound asleep,” I say, climbing into bed beside Maverick. “I think she was happy to be back in her bed.”
“We should have moved it over here last weekend.”
“She’s been sleeping fine. It helps that she played so hard today.”
“Yeah, she’s got some rowdy cousins.”
“They’re all great kids.”
“I know, but that doesn’t mean they’re not rowdy. It’s our fault. We all corrupted Blakely. Now she’s the leader of the pack as the oldest.”
“Stop.” I push at his shoulder, snuggling further beneath the covers.
“Hey, I only speak the truth, and why are you so far away?”
“This is a big-ass bed, Kincaid.”
“Poor excuse,” he grumbles. Instead of moving me next to him, he comes to me, wrapping me in his arms, throwing his leg over mine. “Much better.”
“And here all along you’ve been saying that Ada was the snuggle bug.”
“I only snuggle with my girls, and my nieces and nephews. No other snuggling going on here.” As he says the words, he slides his hand under his T-shirt that I’m wearing. I’ve discovered that I love sleeping in them. They’re big and comfortable, and they smell like him. “I’ve got a promise to keep,” he says, slipping his hand beneath the waistband of my panties.
“I love your promises.”
“These are in the way.” The next thing I know, he’s tugging my panties over my thighs and tossing them over his shoulder. “Now, I can feast.” He drops down and buries his face between my thighs.
I comb my hands in his hair, holding on for the ride that I know he’s going to take me on. Every night since last Friday, he’s done this. He gets his fill, then makes slow love to me. I love that, but I want him unhinged. Like our first night together. I love when he’s slow and tender, but I want all sides of him, and tonight I intend to take what I need from him.
He slides a digit inside while his mouth clamps down over my clit, and I bite down on my bottom lip to muffle my cry of ecstasy.
I’m struggling to catch my breath, but I know I need to move. Rolling over, I settle on all fours and look over my shoulder at him. “I need more.”
