Reese
“It feels really weird getting naked with a man when my parents are in the same house,” I said with a giggle as I stripped off my bathing suit.
My parents had taken a swim with us and soaked in Devon’s large-enough-to-have-a-party hot tub.
My mom and dad had gone off to their own suite of rooms Devon had put them in, and we’d headed to bed.
We always showered after being in the pool or hot tub to wash off the chlorine.
He sent me a shit-eating grin as he stripped off his swim trunks. “Why do you think I put them on the other side of the house? It’s a big house with plenty of walls between us.”
“It’s a ridiculously large house,” I said in a mock exasperated tone. “I’m not saying they can hear us, it just feels…weird. It’s never happened before.”
All in all, today had been one of the best days of my life.
My parents were here.
Devon was here.
And I was finally able to be Reese Monroe again.
My parents seemed to like Devon a lot, and vice versa.
But being with him like this with my family made the indecisiveness of our future even more difficult to bear.
What was I going to do if he decided he didn’t want a future together?
Stop, Reese! None of that needs to be decided right now!
Except…it was getting hard to convince myself of that anymore.
I was cherishing every moment we had, but I couldn’t help thinking about the fact that if he didn’t want us forever, it was going to crush my soul.
I wrapped my arms around his neck when we were both naked and he turned on the shower. “Have I thanked you for everything you’re doing for me and my parents?”
“Yes,” he growled. “And if you thank me one more time for something that I want to do, I’m going to smack that beautiful ass of yours.”
My brows rose and I shot him a sultry smile. “I think I might like that. So, thank you again.”
He opened the door to the enormous shower. “Get in,” he demanded.
I stepped into the elaborate shower.
The stall had multiple shower heads, bench seats, and enough room to fit an entire sports team.
It was obvious that Devon was in his bossy mood, and molten heat flooded between my thighs as he stepped into the shower.
There was an intense look in his dark eyes that was hard for me to read right now.
He wrapped his arms around my body and pulled our bodies as tightly together as they could get before he kissed me.
The embrace was rough, possessive, passionate, and demanding.
And my body responded with the same emotions.
It felt like Devon was trying to claim my mouth as well as the rest of my body.
It was a kiss like no other I’d ever shared with him before, but it felt almost…desperate, and his desperation called to my own.
