She fell asleep in my arms, our bodies sticky and smelling of one another.

And a smile on my face.

I don’t remember falling asleep, but it wasn’t long after her. Then I felt her bottom move against my cock a few hours later, and I entered her again. To honor what Molly had shared with me earlier, I tugged her face around to mine and lifted up on my elbow so she could see my face in the darkness.

Then I fucked her hard and fast.

Before collapsing in each other’s arms once more.

Now, as I watch her sleep, feeling her soft feminine body against mine, I still don’t want to leave.

I want everyone else in the house to fuck off.

That’s a problem.

Because I know it’s not what she wants.

I have work to do.

––––––––

TODAY IS A free day after all the Thanksgiving festivities yesterday. When I walk downstairs, freshly showered, the Dufort family is sitting around the living room with coffees, discussing what the plans are for the day.

I spot Molly in the kitchen eating a bowl of cereal, and she briefly glances my way. Her cheeks warm and I force my feetto stay put, instead of striding over and kissing her in front of everyone.

I left before she woke.

I assume she understands the reason why.

When she doesn’t give me any indication of what she’s thinking, I pour myself a coffee from the pot on the table, add cream, and then join the others.

“All the folks arrive tonight,” Knox says, “so we have a full day.”

“We need to get out of here soon. The house is being set up for the wedding tomorrow and tonight’s picnic dinner.” Payton says, looking excited.

“Bit cold for that isn’t it?” I ask, glancing around for another opinion.

Levi and Blake both nod.

November in the Hamptons is not warm.

“I figure you’ll be doing it with all the bells and whistles,” Hunter says to Payton.

Harper sits herself down on Daniel’s lap and gives me a wave.

“Of course. Have faith, Atlas. I’m not going to let our guests freeze.” Payton tells me and I give her a disbelieving look which she laughs at.

She knows I’m teasing her.

“Did you use the event company Olivia recommended?” Fletcher, who owns the house nearby, asks.

“Yup. Everything is taken care of. It’s going to be fun.” Knox wraps an arm around his fiancé’s shoulders and shoots me an irritated look.

Which is standard morning Knox.

I immediately ignore everyone when Molly walks in and stands next to me. I want to wrap her in my arms and kiss her head. Instead I curse and she glances up at me.

I see the hurt on her face.
