“Yes,” she breathes, and my dick doesn’t know the difference as it throbs on cue at her word.Wishing it was buried inside her.Causing her to repeat the word.
“Fuck,” I muffle into her neck.
“What?”
I lift my head.Hovering over her, looking at her worried face, like something is wrong.
“I’ve been waiting to hear you say that word.In that tone.For decades.Nothing has prepared me for how hard you have made me from it.”
Her mouth agape at my admission, she makes me harder by whispering, “Fucking hell, Rookie.You don’t give a girl a chance to honour her words with confessions like that.”
I’m obliterated.My mouth crashes over hers.Tongues clashing and grappling against one another.Her hands wrap around my torso and find themselves under my shirt.The warmth from her hands runs down my back to firmly land at my lower back and press down, rolling her hips.
Breaking away from her lips is the last thing I want to do, but I do it.This is escalating, and I do want her to take her time.
“Agree,” she replies to my action.
Chuckling, I manoeuvre myself off the lounge, extending my hands down to lift her up too.
We lazily make our way up the stairs.Not able to resist the urge to push her up against the wall on the stairs.Kiss her senseless and then break away and take a few more steps, then repeat the wall kissing.Rinse and repeat.
Walking Rayna to her door, I run my fingers along her jaw.“Have a good sleep.”I brush my lips where my fingers just were.
“You too.”She borders on a moan and pushes herself against me.
My lips met hers, breaking away and stepping back from her, because any longer and I will not leave her room.
“Good night.”She smiles and steps backwards, closing the door in front of me.

Reluctantly,I’veleftRaynaat home so I can meet with Liam for a progress update at the house.Parking Rayna’s car in a miracle spot a few houses away, I approach my house and am pleasantly surprised.
“Aria!What are you doing here?”I hug and embrace my daughter, who is standing at the front door, talking to Liam.
“I got in a little early and was going to surprise you but auto-piloted coming here.”
“You should have let me know.I would have collected you from the airport.”
“And ruin the surprise?Never.I've only just got here, so good timing.”She smiles.Her own dirty blonde hair shining in the sunlight.
“Sorry!Liam, my daughter, Aria.Aria, my builder, Liam.”
They nod and shake hands politely.
“We need to head around the house, but you’re welcome to wait in the lounge room?”Liam notes to Aria.
“That’s okay.I’ll walk around too,” she replies sharply.
Liam and I reach for her luggage at the same time.Liam is inside the house and waves me off to pick up her luggage and put it in the house.I put my arm around Aria’s shoulders and we walk into the house.
“Liam grew up in Parsley Bay.Can’t believe you both don’t know each other,” I exclaim to her.
“Yeah.Must not have hung around the same places,” she remarks.“How have things been at Rayna’s?”
I school my face.Rayna doesn’t want to let anyone in the family know about us just yet.I’d take over the first podium of the season to announce it, but I respect Rayna’s wishes and will do whatever she wants here.“Great.We aren’t getting on each other’s nerves, and I am being the perfect houseguest.”
