Gage growled against me as he began to get more aggressive with his mouth. I grabbed the back of his head and continued to cry out his name and plead with him. The crest shattered into bliss.

Gage’s hard body moved up over me, and his mouth left a trail of kisses along my skin until he was lying beside me, pulling me into his arms. I snuggled against his chest as I floated back to earth, sighing.

“That was amazing,” I said, pressing my lips to his chest.

He ran his hand down my back. “This thing with us, even though you’re different and I’m older, it’s still intense. I don’t always do the right thing. I fuck up,” he said.

I lifted my eyes to his. “Is this your way of telling me you sleep with other women?”

He scowled. “Fuck no. Shiloh, this is my way of telling you that I can’t stay away from you. Jealousy is a monster that consumes me, and I don’t handle it the way you want me to. I’m going to try. Losing you a second time …” He paused. “I won’t be able to do that.”

This was all hard to take in.

“Okay, but I’m still stuck on you sending me away. And now, you’re in my bed, giving me a mind-blowing orgasm. I need time to catch up, I think.”

His hand squeezed my butt cheek. “Take all the time you need, but you’ll be doing it by my side. With me. All the time.”

All the time? I frowned. How would I do that?

“And that means exactly what?” I asked.

A knock at the front door interrupted us, and I started to sit up, but he held me to him.

“Levi will get it,” he said, his arms tightening around me.

“Levi is here?” I asked, my cheeks turning bright red. I’d been screaming Gage’s name just a few minutes ago.

“He brought me last night,” Gage explained.

I heard male voices.

“That’s probably Wilder. I should go explain why Levi is answering my door.”

His hold on me was like a vise grip.

“Gage?”

“Levi can handle it.”

I reached up and cupped the side of his face. His jaw was clenched tight.

“He helped me when I needed it yesterday. He’s my friend, and I owe it to him to let him see that I’m okay.”

His nostrils flared as he held me.

“Let me do this, and then we can talk some more—in bed.” I was bribing him.

Slowly, his hold on me eased, and I smiled, pressing one more kiss to his lips before getting up and grabbing my robe and heading toward the bedroom door.

My apartment door was open, and Levi was standing at it, just like Gage had said. He turned his head in my direction and looked relieved.

“Ah, there she is. You can see she’s alive for yourself,” Levi said, stepping back as I walked over to the door.

Wilder’s eyes scanned me before he locked on my face. “Are you okay?”

I nodded. “Yes. I’m all better. Thank you for your help.”

He glanced behind me.
