He shook his head.“I was checking in with Mason and the DA.Making sure the four responsible for scaring and hurting you get what they deserve.”

She didn’t think he’d let them get away with scaringhim.He’d spent his whole life wanting to get back to her.And they’d taken her away from him.

He’d suffered so many tragedies and losses.She couldn’t imagine what he’d do, what he’d be like if something terrible had happened to her.

Well, it had.And he was angry.

But she was still here.They were together.

But things felt off.Strained.Fragile, even.

It shouldn’t be this way.Not between them.

She blamed Amy.And Tanya.All of them.

But more than anything, she wanted to get back the closeness she shared with Fox.

“It’s infuriating that Tanya only cared about the money and tried to steal it from you, especially after you were so generous with her.”

“She hurt you to hurt me because she knew I’d fucking give everything I have, my fucking life for you.”

She rose up onto her elbow and faced him.“But you won’t touch me, except to hold my hand, then let it go moments later, like you can’t stand not to touch me, then you don’t want to again.”

He reached over and brushed her hair away from her forehead and looked her right in the eye.“You’re right.I want to touch you so badly, I ache with it.But after what you’ve been through, the way you distanced yourself from everyone and everything at the hospital, holding yourself and curling up the way you did… After the way that asshole touched you, I thought maybe you didn’t want anyone, me, touching you.”

“I just…needed some time to let the nightmare fade enough, to not feel like I was still in it.”

The shower he’d helped her take had been very…clinical.Soap her up, rinse her down.Get the job done, nothing else.She’d tried to wash away the memories, the feel of Josh’s hands on her.Then they both climbed into bed and she’d crashed, knowing Fox was right beside her.That he wouldn’t leave her alone.

Then she thought about Fox asleep in their bed at the apartment, waiting for her to come home to him and waking up to someone other than her touching him.“I think we both could use a reminder of what it’s like when we’re together.”She pushed the blankets to the bottom of the bed, rolled over, and straddled Fox’s hips as he fell back onto the pillow he’d been using to prop himself up while he toiled away on his laptop.

He wasn’t wearing a shirt, because she’d come out of the bathroom and pulled it off him and put it on herself, needing his scent and heat to surround her while she slept.Now… “I need you.”She pulled the shirt off over her head and sent it sailing through the air.Then she took him by the wrists and put his hands on her bare breasts.She covered his hands with hers and squeezed the firm mounds.

His eyes blazed with desire.“Are you sure?”

She rocked against his hard length, wishing he wasn’t wearing sweatpants.She didn’t want anything between them.“Don’t hold back, Fox.Love me.”

He rose up, cupped her face in his big, warm hands, and kissed her, his mouth open, tongue thrusting along hers.The kiss was a possession.A claiming.“I love you more than anything.If I lost you…” He shook his head, kissed her hard and fast.“Can’t happen.Never happening.”Then he rolled them back to her side of the bed and she landed on her back with him between her thighs.His mouth crashed down on hers again.Raw.Wild.His tongue slid against hers as his cock rocked against her core.“You’re so fucking beautiful and strong.Fierce.And mine.”

He kissed a trail down her neck to her chest.He hesitated for the barest of seconds before he planted a kiss right over the bruising bite mark, then took her nipple into his mouth and sucked and laved at it, making her moan his name.

"Fox."

“That’s right.It’s me, making you feel this way.”

“So good.Don’t stop.”

“Anything for you.”He took her other nipple into his mouth and slid his hand down her side, over her belly, then between her legs.His fingers softly brushed over her folds, stroking up, then down as he thrust one finger, then two into her.His lips left her nipple with a tug, then pop.“You’re so fucking wet for me.”He thrust those two fingers again.

“I need you.”

“You have me.Always.”He slid down the bed, spread her thighs wide, then licked her pussy from bottom to top.Those two fingers returned, sliding in and out as he licked her clit, circling the bud with his tongue, driving her insane.“Let go.I’ve got you.”That deep, rumbly voice rolled through her along with her orgasm as he continued to stroke her with his tongue and fingers, drawing it out.Wave after wave of pleasure.

Just as she sank back into the bed, the head of his thick cock brushed her entrance, nudging in just an inch.“I love you.”He thrust in to the hilt, then went still, savoring the moment they were joined.One.Connected in bliss.

She grabbed his ass and pulled him in deeper.

He swore, then groaned in ecstasy.“Nothing feels better than being inside you.”And then he moved, pulling out slowly, thrusting back in, building the need inside her once more as she clung to him, gave herself over to him and the insane pleasure until he let go, too, and slammed into her.
