I placed both hands on Carmen. Then I laid my head on her warm, wiry hair. Her breathing and soft noises calmed my erratically beating heart and my racing mind.
I was going to miss her when I was gone.

“Iwas coming to find you,” Carlo called out in front of me. He wore a blue button-down shirt that was tailored to fit him. And I knew this because I’d made it to fit him. It matched his sparkling eyes. It wasn’t a color he normally wore. But I knew the second I saw the fabric that it would look perfect with his eyes.
“You found me.” I smiled even though I was feeling more than a little hesitant about being around him at the moment. If what my father had said was true—Carlo Sovrano was not the man I thought he was.
At any rate, I wasn’t about to start shouting out, “Hey, are you really a mafia king? If so, how many people have you killed?”
Nope.
If what my father said was true, I was going to have to play it cool. Although I really wanted to run screaming from here right now.
“I figured you’d be out with the horses.” The look of love on his face nearly bowled me over. I could feel how much he loved me.
“You know me too well,” I said as he reached out and grabbed my hand. He pulled me into his body. I pushed against his hard chest. “I smell like horses.” I smiled up at him. And that was probably true. But what I really needed was space.
From him.
From Stefan.
From this whole place.
“When has that ever stopped me from wanting you?” His arms wrapped around my torso, and he lifted me up. Then his hands were on my behind—and I melted.
When his mouth touched mine—I was a goner. He kissed me deeply from the start. His mouth was hungry.
For me.
I slid my hands up his chest and over his huge, muscular shoulders.
Gosh, my lumberjack was huge.
Everywhere.
“I haven’t been gone that long,” I muttered into his mouth.
“Hmm.” He kissed me some more, his tongue dancing with mine. I felt my nipples harden instantly. “Maybe it’s the anticipation of this afternoon that has me especially amorous.”
I moved back as much as he’d let me. Which wasn’t that far. “This afternoon?” I asked, no clue at all what he was talking about. But by the look on his face, he was really looking forward to whatever it was.
“This afternoon.” He practically dove forward to capture my lips again.
I was able to maneuver away. “What’s this afternoon?” I asked cluelessly.
The smexy, lumberjacky grin on his face completely took over. “You and Eve are joining me in bed.”
My eyes opened wide, and my mouth did the same. “Oh,” was all I could get out.
Right.
Our deal.
Eve and I had our afternoon with Stefan yesterday. I guess the men were trying not to tire us out by fucking us all in one day.
