Page 80 of Luna: Posy 2

"Why don't we wait a little longer?" he asked. "You're uncomfortable already, and we're all still standing up with clothes on."

I bit my lip. I wanted this; I really did. I loved them with all my heart and wanted to be as close to them as possible in every way. My shyness was killing the mood, though.

"I can strip for you if that'll help you relax," Wyatt offered.

I gulped at the images popping up in my head, then heard the distinct sound of him getting slapped upside the head.

"Stop, Cole! You legit hurt my brain!"

"What little there is!" Cole snarled.

I couldn't stop the laughter from slipping out, and some of the tension in the room eased.

Jayden came over to stand next to me and Ash. He brushed his knuckles down my cheek, and I was captured by his dragon eyes.

"Hey, sweetness." Reaching out his left hand, he linked his fingers with mine. "Come to me, please?"

I stumbled as I left Ash's embrace, and he grinned. Still only touching my fingers, he leaned down and brushed his lips against mine.

"Posy," he murmured with his mouth still on mine. "I'm going to pick you up, okay?"

"Yeah," was the best I could do.

He scooped me up, and I flung my arms around his neck and held on tight as he started walking.

"I won't drop you," he promised.

"I know that, but you giants don't understand how far away the ground is from up here."

Breathing out a soft chuckle, he put his knee on the mattress and settled me against the pillows, then stretched out next to me. We laid on our sides and faced each other.

"I could stare into your eyes forever," I admitted with a shy blush. "They're beautiful."

"Thank you. Yours are, too. They make me think of the ocean."

"Oh! That's right!" Excitement brought a smile to my lips. "You said you wanted to visit the ocean. I do, too! Do you think we could go sometime?"

"Sure. We'll plan a vacation after we get home. Right, brothers?"

"Of course," they chorused.

"Although all of us running around shirtless in our swim trunks might be too much for you, honey," Cole teased me. "We'll probably need to buy you a bag of ice to cool down."

He wasn't wrong, but Wyatt interjected before I could say anything.

"You'regoing to be the one needing ice after seeing Posy in her bikini. You'll have wet dreams for a week."

Smack!

I turned my head to see Wyatt rubbing the back of his head with a fierce frown.

"For real, Cole, you're giving me brain damage!"

"How could anyone tell?" Cole snapped.

Jayden cupped my cheek in one hand and turned my face back to his.

"Look at me, sweetness."
