“Well, I’m not going to complain about that. Are we taking two vehicles to work or one?” Her hips sway as she walks toward me.
“We can take one, but who knows how much I’ll be in and out of the office? As much as I want you with me one hundred percent of the time, I know you have to still live your life and do your shit at work that you need to do. Plus, if I keep you attached to my hip, Liam wins, and I’ll be damned if we let him scare you.” My hand molds around her lower back, dipping to squeeze her ass.
“He’s not going to win. In fact, I refuse to even think about it. Do you think we can stay at your place one night this week? I want to brush up on some of the self-defense moves you taught me.” After we hired her on at Nighthawk, I offered Kellie some sessions on learning how to handle yourself in case she got into a situation and none of us were around. It took me two months to convince her, but I wore her ass down. Even so much as having her over twice a week and making her dinner or bringing it in.
“Yeah, you want to head there after work? You have the code. I’ll pick up Legend and then head to my place,” I offer.
“Sounds like a plan. I’ll pack a bag. I know you mentioned talking to Easton. Have you done that yet?”
“It’s on my list for today. Why don’t we stay at my place until the alarm system is completely set up, then we’ll come back here?” I move her so she’s standing in front of me, slowly backing her up against the counter, wanting to kiss the hell out of those red lips of hers.
“I’ll cook. I know you keep a stocked fridge and pantry.” Her pretty face is upturned, looking at me. Our height difference even in the heels she’s wearing still has her at a disadvantage when it comes to us being eye to eye. I fucking love how much smaller she is to my stature.
“I’d like that. Your tea is in a travel mug. I didn’t make your lunch though. I’m sure Taylor will be stopping by at some point today to check in on you.” My lips land on hers. She gives me every ounce of her sweetness, neither of us caring that her lipstick is smearing everywhere.
“Fuck,” I grunt out when our kiss ends.
“Shit, now we both have to fix ourselves. Maybe I should quit wearing lipstick when you’re around,” she jokes, grabbing a paper towel, wetting it, and wiping the lipstick off my lips.
“It doesn’t matter to me. I’ll still take your lips every chance I can get.” My thumb comes up to take care of the mess I made of her. It’s the truth. It doesn’t matter if Kellie has makeup on or is fresh faced, clothed to the nines or wearing worn-out clothes—I’ll always want her.
“Okay.” When her voice comes out breathless, it has my dick lengthening in my jeans.
“Alright.” I nod my head, grab my cup of black coffee, swallow the rest before rinsing my cup out and placing it in the dishwasher.
“There’s something to be said about a man who doles out orgasms, cooks, and cleans.” I turn around, catching Kellie staring at my body. I’m in my standard uniform of dark jeans, black polo with our Nighthawks logo on it, and boots. It’s nothing to write home about, but when my woman gives me those eyes, I feel like I’m ten feet tall.
“I’ll show you just how many orgasms I can wring out of you tonight.”
“Does that mean I get to return the favor?” she asks while we pick up what we need to head out the door.
“Fuck yes, you do.” I pat Legend’s head, then we both head out the door. I need to get Easton out here and fast. I know he pulled away from Nighthawk to create his own business, but sometimes it’s nice to have his set of eyes to see what needs to be placed where.
I lock Kellie’s front door before guiding her out to her car. “I’ll be right behind you. See you at work, sunshine.” I kiss her forehead knowing if I don’t get in my own vehicle, neither one of us will make it.
“I’ll see you there.” She kisses my chest, right on top of my heart, something I’ve noticed she’s done since we solidified our relationship. I nod waiting for her to slide in and start her car before heading to my vehicle. This woman has my heart. Fuck, if I’m being honest, she owns every damn piece of me.
THIRTEEN
KELLIE
This has been the slowest day at work ever. Finally, after an hour of literally twiddling my thumbs, I stand up and see what the guys’ offices look like and if I can tidy them up. If there’s nothing left for me to do, I’ll text Taylor and Raelynn. Maybe we can meet here for lunch or something. I swear we haven’t been this slow in forever.
