“I love you, Dorian,” I mumbled against him before the kiss deepened. We gained back the time that was lost to us, and we weren’t giving up one minute of right now without touching.
We kissed for what seemed like eternity before a knock made our lips break apart. Melissa Ann bustled into the room.
“I’m fully expecting to be your matron of honor since I called this from the beginning.” She stood there with her arms over her chest and a big-ass grin on her lips.
Dorian laughed, and I couldn’t help but join in.
“Well, if you two are done cannoodling, we need to patch Dorian up and clean this room. I’ve covered for you, Esme, and afterward you two can head out.”
I didn’t need to say it, because she saw the words expressed on my face. Melissa Ann was the bomb.
In no time, Dorian’s wounds were cleaned and he was stitched up. He promised that he would go into more detail about it later, but as soon as we left the hospital together he flashed us to his stunning apartment by the bay. He needed a wash and a change of clothes, so of course it was natural that I helped him get clean in the shower.
For hours we talked, we cherished each other’s bodies, and we loved hard.
A whole new world of possibilities had opened up to us. But the first thing I wanted to do when we came out of the apartment was to head to the Hero Society.
They’d become my family, and I had to see what happened to them, make sure they were okay.
“You don’t have to come if you don’t want to.”
Separating my life with them and with him would be difficult. But Dorian didn’t stop walking as we moved closer to headquarters.
