I was fully surrounded by Shepard Winchester, and I was loving every delicious second of it.

“Oui, right there… I’m right there, Shep,” I said as his cock rubbed up against my P-spot and my vision began to get spotty.

Shep picked up the pace, and as my climax raced down my spine, he buried his face in the crook of my neck, tensing as he thrust inside me.

My orgasm washed over me like a powerful wave pulling me under, hot jets of cum exploding between us, and seconds later, Shep followed me beneath the waves, filling my body with his arousal as he came on a satisfied roar.

It was the most sensual and satisfying moment of my life. That alone was enough to scare the hell out of me. But the fact that it had just happened with Shep—the last man I should’ve allowed myself to feel this way for—was a whole other problem I’d have to deal with. Because now that I’d had him, now that I’d experienced this side of Shep, I didn’t give a fuck who his ex was—I wasn’t about to let him go.

SHEP

SILENCE DESCENDED AS we lay beside each other catching our breaths, a rare feat when Theo was around. It should’ve felt strange in the aftermath, the two of us coming together like this after all these years of friendship and brotherhood. Watching each other go through life, other lovers.

Whatwasstrange was that it didn’t feel strange at all. The opposite, actually. I didn’t know what had just changed between us, but it felt like something had, like we’d crossed a line and now, here in the quiet, it was hitting us. I wasn’t sure what had gotten into me, only that I’d definitely been the one to start it.

This wasTheo. Crazy, charming, no-boundaries Theo.

I turned my head on the pillow to look at him, and there was a small smile playing on his full lips.

God, what was he thinking about? Was he having the same insane thoughts that I was? The fact that he was still here and hadn’t gone back to his room was already different from our past hookups.

“I think I’ll stay in here tonight,” Theo said like he was reading my mind, drawing the covers up his body and then giving a contented sigh as he closed his eyes.

I grinned in the dark. And that right there was the endearing side of Theo that could also be infuriating if his wishes were unwelcome. He didn’t ask for approval, just announced his plans, and you had to either go along with it or die fighting it.

Shifting onto my side, I plumped the pillow beneath my head and joined him under the sheets. “I suppose I’ll let you.”

He cracked one eye open. “Letme?”

“Itismy bed.”

“Oui. Yours is better.”

I laughed at that. “They’re exactly the same, and I would know. I chose them.”

“Still better.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to stay in here because you’re…scared?”

“Me? Scared? Pshh.”

“No? You didn’t hear those coyotes a few minutes ago?”

“Pretty sure that howling was from you when you came.” He turned on his side to face me, a slight frown marring his brow. “Merde… There aren’t coyotes in a rainforest. Are there?”

“Oh, right. Must’ve been the jaguars.”

Theo’s eyes narrowed. “Nope. I’m not falling for it. Although if there is danger lurking, you do have the biggest…gun.” He copped a feel of my bicep and gave it a squeeze.

The teasing between us came naturally, but I could sense it was just a cover for things we were leaving unsaid tonight. Things we probablyneededto get out, but neither of us seemed to want to be the first to do so.

Shit.Why was I was starting to sweat?

As Theo drew his arm back, I instinctively took his hand and linked our fingers. His eyes flew up to mine in surprise…but he didn’t pull away.

“I appreciate the compliment,” I said, brushing his knuckles with my thumb, “but you can just admit you want to sleep with me.”
