It had also helped that we’d seemed to bridge the gap between our friends, inviting several of her friends and mine out together. Sort of our first real coming out as a couple. And to our surprise, everyone had gotten along well. Even Tyson and I had buried the hatchet between us. It appeared some had gotten along better than others, too—case in point, I was pretty sure Ian and MacKenzie were currently en route to his place.
I couldn’t help but smile, because this was exactly what we’d been doing for the past month—her introducing me to the things in her world and me introducing her to mine.
Alexa continued to watch me, her expression curious, her mouth curving into a mischievous smile.
“Not here. Not in my truck, baby. Let me take you home where I can fuck you properly,” I kissed her, nipping at her mouth.
She grinned and shook her head. “I’m not breakable, Cade. You don’t have to treat me like a princess. I want you.”
“Cupcake…” my voice came out in a half moan, half whisper.
She worked her hands in between us, unbuckling my belt and tugging open my jeans. God, I was completely at her mercy. She owned me. And the gleam in her eye and smile twitching on her lips told me she knew it.
“I think I need to remind you…” She tugged my boxers down just enough to free my cock. “That this belongs to me.” She angled herself closer, grinding against me so I could feel just how damp her panties were.
Fuuuuck.“Oh, it’s all yours, cupcake.” I tugged her panties to the side, running my thumb along her swollen pussy. Knowing she was ready, I thrust my hips up, meeting her wet heat with gentle thrusts. She whimpered and writhed, adjusting to the fullness as I pushed inside. I clenched my jaw to keep from crying out when her impossibly tight, warm channel sank down on me.
“Every inch, mine,” she whispered.
“Yes, yours.” I kissed her passionately while she increased her speed.
Alexa cried out and pressed her hand against the window, smearing the steamed-up glass with a handprint. If it wasn’t obvious what was happening in this truck before, it certainly was now.
Her whimpers grew more insistentand I knew she was close. I never had to ask her anymore. I could always tell when she was about to come and timed my release accordingly. She raised and lowered herself on me while repeatedly moaning my name like it was her mantra. It wasfucking hot.
She tossed her head back, moaning low in her throat and rode out the pulsing orgasm I could feel squeezing me. I gripped her hips, pumping hard and fast, and quickly followed her over the edge.
After, I cradled her to my chest, holding her while our heartbeats slowedand breaths mingled. “I love you, cupcake.”
“I love you, Caden,” she murmured, her lips pressed against my neck.

Eight months later
“That girl’s a fish—look at her go,” my dad chuckled, squinting into the sun.
Watching Lily splash around in the pool was my new favorite way to spend a Saturday and it was obviously becoming my dad’s too. I had grown up in this pool, on the patio of this country club, but somehow watching Lily enjoy it was even better than my own memories.
My mom was in the pool with Lily, since trying to keep her out of the water was like trying to keep Cade from calling me cupcake—it was a lost cause. And it was beginning to look like all those swimming lessons were really paying off.
I looked across the terrace to find Cade returning with lunch. He set the foam boxes on the table between my father and I, before dropping a kiss on my lips and settling in the lounge chair beside me.
“What’s for lunch?” my dad asked, addressing Cade.
He chuckled. “Burgers. What else?”
It had becoming a running joke between them. When my mom wasn’t in the pool with Lily and was the one to order lunch, she’d come back with salmon salad or something equally as foreign to Cade and Lily’s palates. They were good sports about it though, just like my parents were when Cade came back with cheeseburgers for everyone. With gouda and mushrooms—just the way I liked them. It was like we were all learning to exist together. Even my dad had cut back on working Saturdays in the summer to spend the days with us here, which was a miracle in and of itself. He certainly never did that during my childhood.
Things had changed considerably over the past several months since I graduated from nursing school. Most notably, Cade had won my parents over. It hadn’t been easy at first, but Cade had persisted. He’d started his own successful contracting company, and sought my dad out for financial advice, which he was all too happy to provide, seeing as finance was his favorite topic.
My dad in turn referred him to several clients for remodeling projects—wealthy people at the country club—and Cade’s business had grown considerably in a short time. Most of all, it gave him a boost of confidence, and forced any lingering worries over money from his mind. It was nice to see him a bit more relaxed because of it.
Another big part of my parents coming around had to do with little Lily—she was just so loveable. So determined and funny and sweet. Though my mom never seemed the grandmotherly type before, she’d begun coming over several days a week to pick up Lily. It was nice to see my mother have someone in her life to devote attention to, rather than sitting alone in their big, empty house.
Cade had begun helping my dad around the house with odds and ends, my father gaining a healthy respect for the self-taught skills Cade possessed. Of course we’d conveniently left out Cade’s brief stint as a porn star and though his videos were still online, we doubted my parents would ever discover them.
