When Dare’s warm breath ghosted against my inner thigh, I gasped. As I tried wriggling away, I replied, “I will in ten minutes.”

Piper’s lips turned down in a frown. “But I’s hungwy.”

As Dare’s tongue flicked against my pussy, I whimpered. A shiver ran through me as his teeth grazed my clit. “Um, I-uh, get Nick to…um, make you..ahhh…something.”

Shaking her head, Piper replied, “No, no. He burns the eggs.”

“Okay, I’m coming.”

“Not that fast,” Dare joked against my center.

When Piper slammed the door back, I squirmed out of Dare’s reach. “I cannot believe you just did that,” I hissed.

He flung the blanket over his head. “She didn’t have a clue what was going on.”

“But I did!”

“Ava, I know I don’t know a lot about this parenting thing, but I’m pretty sure kids walk in on their parents fucking all the time.”

“You didn’t stop when she came in.”

“Because I wanted to tease you.”

“Not in front of her.”

Dare held up his hands. “Okay, okay. I’m sorry.” Although he momentarily appeared apologetic, he licked his lips. “Does this mean I can’t go down on you?”

With a playful roll of my eyes, I shoved him away. “I know you’re new to the whole father thing, but trust me when I tell you, I have exactly a minute to get out there before she comes back.”

He grunted in frustration. “Fine. I’ll go grab a shower.”

Just as he flung back the covers and got out of bed, Piper appeared in the doorway. “Motherfucker!” Dare blared before dropping to the floor out of Piper’s inquisitive stare.

“Did your fwiend spend da night?” she asked.

Closing my eyes, I willed the floor to open up and swallow me whole. “Uh, huh,” I finally replied.

“Whys he down dere?”

Grabbing my robe, I threw it on in record time. I stepped over Dare who had rolled into a fetal position halfway under the bed. “Let’s go get you some breakfast?”

“But whys he on the floor?”

“I was playing hide and seek. I’ll come find you guys later,” Dare called.

A laugh bubbled from my lips at the absurdity of the moment.

“Should I finds him?” Piper asked.

“Nope. Let’s go to the kitchen.”

Chapter Thirty-Three: Dare

When I got out to the garage, Piper was waiting beside Niall. I guess he’d intercepted her before she could get in. “I didn’t know you were on this morning.”

“James needed to swap to go to his son’s t-ball game.”

“Gotcha.”
