He chuckled.
“No, really. Don’t hold your breath. You might pass out. Remember to breathe.”
“You know I’ve been in a fight or two before, right?”
“What? No! When?”
“You want them listed chronologically or alphabetically?”
“Oh my god. Neither,” I growled. “Promise me you’ll be careful.”
“I’ll be careful.” He grinned, kissing me. “You wanna fuck before we head to the club?”
“Yes, of course, I want to fuck before we head to the club.”
“Good answer.”
We made our way up to my room where he reminded me exactly what he could do with a full set of teeth.

“You know, now thatwe’re official, you’re gonna need to let me on the back of your bike,” I said as he drove my car to the compound.
He sighed. “Yeah.”
“I’m a good passenger, honey.”
“I’m sure you are.”
“I was on Dad’s bike before I could walk.”
“Not sure how I feel about that,” he admitted. “But you being a good passenger doesn’t actually make me want to take the risk.”
“We can ride around the property a bit.”
“That’s actually a good idea. We can do that next week.”
I beamed. “Can’t wait.”
Pulling up to the cabin, we climbed out of the car and Aero cupped my face. “Ready?”
“I have no idea,” I admitted.
He grinned, kissing me gently, then taking my hand and leading me inside.
“Aero!”
I turned just as Sabrina and Stoney’s kid came running up to Aero. He scooped him up and threw him in the air as Felix squealed with laughter. “Hey, buddy. Have you grown?”
“Dad said an inch,” he said excitedly. “He put a mark on the door.”
“Whoa, bud, you need to quit, then. You’ll be able to take me down if you get much bigger.”
Felix flexed his muscles and I forced back a laugh.
He smiled up at me as he hugged me. “Hi, Letti.”
“Hey, honey.” I hugged him back, kissing his head.
