A nap wasn’t the only thing that happened after that. But later, when they had sex again, both he and Dayne focused on Cara once more and not each other, other than some kissing, touching, and teasing.

Heath was so ready to do more with Dayne, whether Cara was present or not.

But now that the sun had risen, he blinked up at the ceiling, realizing they had all fallen asleep in his bed. Since his limbs were entangled with a sleeping Cara’s, he carefully extracted himself, doing his best not to wake her. At least until he figured out where Dayne was.

Once he was clear and on his feet, movement just outside the bedroom door caught his attention. He quickly, but quietly, yanked on a nearby pair of shorts and headed out of the bedroom.

Dayne was finishing up pulling on his clothes.

Heath closed the door behind him so they wouldn’t disturb Cara. “Ditching us already?”

Wearing a crooked grin Heath found very damn sexy,Dayne shook his head. “Not a chance. I want to go for a run before I put on my CFO hat for the day.”

No wonder the man was so lean and muscular. Though, he probably did more than running. “How far do you run?”

“I try to do five at least three times a week.”

“I’m the same but I do it on a treadmill in my building’s gym.”

“I’ll be stuck using a treadmill once the weather turns to shit, but right now it’s perfect running weather and the view can’t be beat.” Dayne’s head tipped to the side. “Want to join me?”

The offer was tempting despite the fact he was still tired from the long day yesterday—between traveling and everything else—as well as last night’s events.

He glanced back at the closed bedroom door. Cara could use some uninterrupted sleep. The shadows under her eyes were proof they had kept her up too late last night.

He returned his attention to the man waiting for an answer. “I’ll join you.”

Dayne nodded. “I need to head back to the house to change. Want to meet me by the barn?”

“Sure. I’ll leave her a note so she doesn’t think we’ve abandoned her.”

Dayne usually didn’t spend moretime with a guest other than what it took to say hello or check in with them to make sure they were enjoying their stay. One exception was the time it took to eat breakfast after having sex with them all night. Dani’s delicious breakfasts were the least he could do to thank any participants ending up in his bed.

He certainly didn’t go for a run with any of them. Besidesproviding exercise, breathing in the fresh air and taking in the mountain views, running normally helped clear his head. It was a good start to a workday before numbers filled his gray matter.

After stretching, both he and Heath took off at an easy jog to warm up. They headed down the dirt road toward his favorite trail in the state game lands butting up against the resort. Now was the time to take that trail before hunting season was in full swing.

“Have you ever run on a trail before?” Dayne asked him.

“No. I live in Hoboken where there’s not a dirt trail to be seen. I’ve run outside a few times, but like I said, I usually use my building’s gym. It’s pretty badass.”

“Do you live in a condo?”

“Penthouse.”

Damn.“That had to set you back.”

“It did. Of course, I’m still paying for it and will be for a long time, but it was worth it since it’s close to the city, top restaurants, and entertainment. The beach is within driving distance. So are airports. Another positive is, it’s only about a four-hour drive here. Have you always lived in this area?”

“No. Once I left for college, for obvious reasons I stayed gone until my father died and left the farm to me and my brother.”

“Are you glad to be back?”

“Now I am,” Dayne answered honestly. “I wouldn’t have stayed if we had sold off the dairy farm instead of building the resort.”

“That’s right. You told us this used to be a dairy farm on our tour yesterday.”

“My brother and I couldn’t wait to escape. It turns out, we both prefer milking cocks over milking cows.”
