Relief washed over me as his words registered in my brain.

They found Sabrina.

“Oh my gosh. I can’t believe you managed it this quickly.”

He smirked at me with a quirked brow. “Almost sounds as though you were lying about how impressive you thought I was.”

“Of course not.” I rolled my eyes. “It’s just that I’m so excited all of this might actually be over soon.”

Pax’s grin disappeared as he yanked me against his chest. “I better not be part of that all you’re talkin’ about, baby. Because we’re not gonna be fucking over.”

“I definitely didn’t mean you.”

He brushed his lips against mine in a kiss that left me wanting more. “Good.”

I wasn’t sure if I was more relieved to hear that they knew where Sabrina was or that Pax still wanted to be together after those guys were no longer a threat to me. Either way, the tears welling in my eyes started to flow down my cheeks.

“Hey, baby, don’t cry.” He wiped his thumb across my cheek, swiping away the tears.

I sniffled, doing my best to get my emotions under control, but it was hard. “I can’t help it. I just…there’s been a lot of highs and lows in such a short time.”

“I’m assuming I’m one of the highs?” he asked, pressing a kiss to my forehead.

“The highest of highs,” I confirmed with a watery smile.

“C’mon, let’s head to my room. Give you a little more privacy.”

He led me out of the kitchen—where I’d been stress baking, much to his club brothers’ delight. Our fingers were intertwined as he led me to his room, kicking the door shut behind us. I padded over to the bed and sat down, tears springing from my eyes again as another wave of relief crashed over me.

Pax knelt in front of me, his hands shaking as he placed them on my knees. “Thought I told you not to cry.”

I inhaled deeply, then let out my breath slowly as I met his gaze. “These are happy tears, Pax. I’m just…I’m so relieved that my life will finally go back to normal. Even if it’s a new one because you’re in it now.”

He laughed as he wiped the tears from my cheeks. “And it’ll be a much better one with me around.”

There was no denying that. Although I’d been through hell because of the stunt Sabrina pulled, in a weird kind of way, I felt as though I owed her because I never would’ve met Pax otherwise. “It will.”

“Good because there’s no going back now that I’ve had you. I meant it when I told you that you were mine, and I guess now I’ll have to prove it.”

Before I could respond, he leaned forward and his lips crushed to mine, taking all the breath from my lungs. When his tongue slid into my mouth, I melted into him, wrapping my arms around his neck to pull him down to the bed with me. Something that I knew darn well only worked because he went along with it.

Pax was so much bigger than me, but he fit perfectly against my body as I spread my legs to give him space to settle between them. His dick was already hard, and I could feel it pressing against my core even through both of our jeans.

I didn’t even realize I was rubbing myself against him to feel some friction until he broke our kiss. “I’m in control, baby. Be patient, and I’ll give you what you need.”

He followed up his promise by sliding his hand between us to cup my pussy. His touch only eased some of the ache, and I wanted more. Needed it since I’d quickly become addicted to the pleasure only this man could give me.

“Please, Pax,” I managed to pant.

He laughed again, his breath hot on my lips. “Love how responsive you are to me, and only me. So needy. But I have to get you warmed up before you take my big cock.”

I pressed my head back against the pillows as he slid down the length of my body, a wicked smile on his gorgeous face as he yanked off my jeans and panties and tossed them to the side.

He’d already seen, touched, and tasted every inch of me, so there was no hint of embarrassment at being laid bare in front of him. Only desire coursed through my veins when his heated gaze zeroed in on my pussy, heat simmering low in my belly.

He spread my legs farther before his rough tongue slid over my slit. Just that slight, wet touch had me shivering with anticipation. He’d trained my body to know what was coming next…so much pleasure.

He added a finger inside me, and my body stretched to fit him as though some part of him was always meant to be there. And when he added his tongue again, using long strokes as he swirled his thick digit, my body tightened as my release started to build.
