Lifting myself on his chest, I held his gaze. “Why did you do it?”
“It wasn’t intentional,” he confessed. “I was fully planning on telling you when you returned that we were coming to my home,but when you saw me and assumed I was leaving… When I saw your expression, I just couldn’t help myself.”
His thumb went to my jaw like that was his favorite thing to do to me, his fingertips caressing the side of my neck gently, where my bond tattoo was, and sending new sensations through me.
“I felt relief when you get nervous thinking I wouldn’t be there anymore. It was nice to finally feel that you need me too.”
“Awe, he’s so honest. Forgive him!”
I internally rolled my eyes at Star.

“Okay, hold your horses there, sexy lumberjack man. I wasn’t nervous,” I argued, seeing his perfectly bushy brow lift. “I was just caught off guard to see you leaving without anyone informing me.”
“You literally ran after me through the entire estate, Natalia.”
“It’s a castle. And I didn’t run after you… I was merely following your path quickly.”
“You had a full-blown panic attack because you thought I was leaving.”
I internally gasped—loudly. The nerve. “I did not!”
“Did too.”
“Did not!!”
“Did too.”
“I did?—!”
“I’m going to stop you right there. I grew up with a twin sister. I can do this all day.”
My eyes narrowed at him dangerously, yet his lips twitched again.
“You panicked.”
The back of my hand smacked his chest so damn hard that the whack reverberated through the suite.
Laughter erupted from him, husky, wild, and free. Hannes flipped us on the bed abruptly, pressing his massive body against me and sinking us into the mattress.
“Dante is right, it feels amazing when you hit us.”
My treacherous legs naturally wrapped around Hannes’s hips, bringing our bodies impossibly closer. Didn’t they know I was mad at him right now?
“I didn’t panic.” Even in my quarrel, I slipped my arms over his shoulders and arched my back, fixing my body under him.
Big mistake.
Everything fell into place with the movement, our bodies perfectly aligned until his groin pressed against my core. Holy shit. He was massive.
“Is he hard?”
“He has to be. No man can be this thick and delicious naturally.”
Once again, my treacherous body acted of its own volition, my hips shifting to rub him against my center. Desire flashed in his eyes, darkening them, and making him lean into me until his heated breath fanned my neck.
“You literally jumped on me to stop me from leaving,” he murmured next to my ear, the rumbling effects of his throaty voice almost making me moan.
