Her dark, curly head pops up immediately. “I’d better check on him! We can play together!”

She wiggles, and I put her down, watching her take off running in the direction of the kitchen. When I straighten, Rachel’s eyebrow is arched, and her arms are crossed.

“What?” I’m not sure I’m ready to hear this.

“You’re a real expert when it comes to kids.”

“Is that so?” I take a step closer, and she puts her hands on my waist.

“She might be a little spoiled, but you handled that situation. Nice work.”

“Are you saying I got out of spending time with my precious niece?”

“Absolutely.”

I laugh, ready to lean in and kiss her good, when I hear my sister’s voice behind us. “Time to wrap it up, people. We’re closing for the night.”

“Only my sister would shut down the restaurant at nine p.m. on a Friday,” I murmur in her ear.

“To be fair, Thursdays are the big nights here, and everybody’s at the high school game.” She gives my hand a squeeze. “I’ll collect the pool-shark and see you back at the house.”

“Did you eat dinner?”

“Yes, Daddy, I had a whole cheeseburger.” That sassy little Daddy hits me in a way I don’t expect.

Reaching out, I catch her by the waist. “That sounds pretty good. I might have you say that again when I’m inside you.”

Her eyes flare, and her cheeks flush red. “Watch what you wish for. It might come true.”

Leaning back, I’m still smiling, slowly shaking my head as I watch her walk away, that cute little ass swaying in the direction of the pool tables.

The house is quiet,and I’m lying in my bed doing my best to relax, get some sleep. One thing is on my mind—sneaking across the hall into Rachel’s bedroom. One thing is stopping me: Eddie Nashville.

I’m pretty sure if I go to her, we’ll wake her brother. I toss and turn a little longer, then I remember Edward sleeps in headphones sometimes.

Sitting up in the bed, I’m ready to make my move when Ihear a soft tap on the door. I’m across the room in an instant, carefully opening the door. When I look down and see her standing in the dark hallway, I open it at once, catching her wrist, and pulling her inside before quickly shutting it again.

“Hey.” Her back is against the door, and I’m looking down at her sweet lips.

“Hey.” You’d think I’d run a marathon with the way I’m panting.

We’re both breathing fast, and without another word, I lean down to kiss her. She exhales one of those soft little noises, and her arms wrap around my neck. In a sweep, I lift her off her feet, opening her mouth with mine, and curling our tongues together.

The semi I’ve been struggling with is fully hard, and I carry her to the bed, putting a knee on it before lowering her to her back. She’s wearing nothing but a thin, long-sleeved tee, and I can see her nipples pointing through the fabric, rising quickly with her breath.

Leaning down, I cover one with my mouth, pulling the stiff peak firmly through the cotton fabric, sliding my teeth over it as she squirms and quietly moans beneath me.

“Zane…” She threads her fingers in my hair, and I rise higher, covering her mouth with mine again, meeting her hungry kisses with my own.

She reaches for the hem of my tee, pulling it higher, and I lean back to whip it over my head. Her eyes darken as they slide down my body, and my cock tents my joggers.

Bending down, I speak in her ear. “I was on my way to you when you appeared.”

She cups my jaws in her hands, turning her face to whisper, “You said you’d always come for me.”

“I will.” I reach down to lift her shirt higher, helping her sit up, so she can remove it completely.

She lies back again, and my breath catches at the sight of her beautiful, naked body in the middle of my bed. A shy smile curls her lips as I study her soft form.
