A deep laugh tears from me. I’m proud of her and so fucking in love.
“Bye forever, you pathetic asshole. Hope I never see your face again.” With a bright smile, Maya leaves us.
I’m thoroughly enjoying the way his smugness has been obliterated by my girl.
I stop him before he storms off, lowering my voice seriously. “Key or not, campus security keeps logs of every car and hasextensive surveillance cameras in place around the grounds. She reported the incident, and they have your plates and description.” I drop my attention to his sling, a threat creeping into my tone. “Stay the fuck away from Maya.”
Lip curling, he mutters under his breath and leaves the club. I don’t relax, not until I know he’s gone.
Blowing out a breath, I take up my post as the girls’ bodyguard again.
When the girls are ready to leave two hours later, we squeeze into my car and I make sure they all get home safe.
After dropping off Wiener’s date at a townhouse off-campus in Heston Lake, I take Reagan home. She makes her way into the apartment building singing the last song that was on the radio. When Hana gets out, Corinne joins her. They both take off their heels and the pair of them hook arms, leaning on each other for support while they walk gingerly up the path to their dorms.
Then it’s just me and Maya in the peacefulness of my car, the music station she picked playing low in the background.
I reach across the console to tuck a hand between her thighs. “Ready to go home, baby?”
She gives me a soft smile, fighting to keep her eyes open. “Yeah. Take me home.”
Easy. That’s wherever she is.
TWENTY-SIX
EASTON
When Maya wakes up,she always makes a grumpy sound before opening her eyes, like it’s an offense to be pulled from sleep. It’s so fucking cute it makes my chest feel funny. Once she’s up, she’s what I’d consider a morning person, but those first moments she fights consciousness are my favorite to watch.
She’s cuddled close to my side and has one leg hooked around mine. She nuzzles my arm, nose scrunching. Then she makes the little sound I love before exhaling sleepily.
“Morning,” I rasp.
“Mhm,” she responds, still keeping her eyes closed.
I draw her closer, arms tightening around her when she shifts to lay on top of me. My dick is already awake because it’s morning and that’s what it does, but with her naked body pressed against mine it throbs with another pulse of heat, growing harder.
Still not fully awake, she moves against me with torturously sensual movements, her body naturally seeking out what it needs. I groan, fingertips moving down her spine to grab a handful of her delectably thick ass.
“Keep that up and I’m going to slip it in.” My mutter is rough, tinged with sleep.
“Mm, please,” she murmurs.
“Fuck, Maya,” I say hoarsely when she scoots down so she’s straddling me to grind her pussy against my cock.
She lifts her head, eyes hooded and brimming with desire. “You woke me up from all those touches. I was dreaming your mouth was everywhere.”
“It will be in a minute.”
With a rumbling noise, I roll her over and slot my mouth over hers with a hungry kiss. Before things heat up further, the cat interrupts us with an affronted meow. She snickers, holding out a hand.
“Sorry, kitty. Are we bothering you?”
Kit-cat stays at the end of the bed by our feet, where she spent the night curled up until we woke her up. The cat surveys us both, meowing again before she hops to the floor.
“Ah, shit. That’s herfeed memeow,” I say.
Maya grins. “You know her different sounds. I love that about animals—the ways we learn to communicate with each other.”
