“I just stuffed them in the closet.Ophelia followed me in.”

We sorted out our belongings in the closet, which was a nice addition.Then we checked out the bathroom, which contained a large shower as well as a toilet and sink, so we wouldn’t have to leave the room.

Aiden’s eyes twinkled.“I can think of so many uses for this.”

I scoffed, “Yeah, because you haven’t had me in a public shower before.”

“Siobhan, darling…” He leaned on the doorframe, blocking me in.“In case you’ve failed to notice, Ialwayswant you, even when we’re in private.”

I flushed.“Do you really mean that?”

“If, after two years, you still don’t believe me, I must not be doing my job right.”His free hand tipped my head up by my chin.“I love every inch of you.”

I flinched.

Aiden frowned.“What?”

“I had a bit of a hard time this summer,” I whispered.“I’m not immune to nasty teasing.”

“Who was it?What did they say?”His face looked like a thundercloud.

“Just some regular human girls at the golf course.”I tried to wave away his concern.“It wasn’t a big deal.”

“Obviously it was, since you’re still thinking about it.What did they say to you?”

“They didn’t say anythingtome,” I hedged.

“Siobhan.”

It was one word, my name, but it sent shivers down my spine.

“They used the phrase ‘thunder thighs’,” I whispered.“And ‘fat ass’.”I blinked tears out of my eyes.

“Anything else?”

I shook my head.“They’re just stupid words.They don’t mean anything.”

“Words have weight to them,” he said.

I huffed a tiny laugh at his pun, but he didn’t crack a smile.

“For the record, if you have thunder thighs, call me Thor, because I love making them shake around my head when my face is buried between them.”

I gasped, turned on within seconds.

He lowered his mouth to whisper in my ear, bending to slide one hand down my back.“And I honestly can’t think that they meant ‘fat’ as a negative, because your ass is the perfect amount of grabbable.It fits in my hands to perfection, whether I’m pulling you against my body to kiss you…” He demonstrated, our breaths mingling in the small space between us.“…or yanking you backward onto my cock as I fuck you into the mattress.”

I whimpered, and he claimed my lips, sucking my soul out of my body with his skill.

“Whenever you think about what they said to you, remember my words, and how much I love every single inch of you,” he said seriously once he’d pulled back.“Get it?”

I nodded and he pinched my ass.

“Words, Siobhan.”His lips quirked up in a semblance of a smile.

“Got it.”

“Good.”Aiden finally released me, but didn’t let me move far from him.“Now, about christening this room...”
