“Okay…”

“I want to start this the right way. So I’m going to run and you’re going to give me a head start,” I say as I open the passenger side door. “I hope you catch me before I reach the house. I’m kind of recreating my favorite memory here.”

And then I bolt.

I hear my husband’s laughter boom behind me and the joy he feels surges through me via our mate bond. My legs pump as I try to run as fast as I can. I have a basic idea of where I am this time and which direction to run.

In the distance I see the elm tree I am aiming for and veer in that direction. I am five feet away from my intended location when Jonah wraps his arms around my body.

“Got you,” he says into my ear.

“I let you catch me,” I say and giggle.

“Are you going to let me have my way with you or are you going to fight me?” he asks, palming my sex through my dress.

“Why don’t you find out?”
