Page 185 of Finding the Forward: Part One
AJ slid an arm around her waist. “I’ve got you. Overdid it a little, Princess?”
“Nothing a drink and a hot shower won’t cure.” Her eyes closed as she rested her head on his shoulder as he held her tight, talking to her softly.
I checked my phone to find several texts from Dean, then picked up both their coats.
Certainly, they looked good together. Like an alpha power couple.
They weremine.
I helped her put her coat on, and I pulled her to me, getting a good hit of AJ on her. “Was that okay?”
She nodded, melting into me, as her voice grew soft. “Unexpected. But I’d been wondering what he tasted like.”
“I hope you liked it.” I kissed her, trying to cement the fact that I adored what happened. “We should find Dean. He’s looking for us.”
“I’ll have him meet us at the car,” AJ replied, texting him back.
Verity let go of me and got her backpack.
AJ caught my waist, pulling me to him. He kissed me, then ran his hand through my beard. “Areyouokay?”
“I’m great. But you can make me feel even better later,” I whispered, giving his ear a nibble. His hand crushed my ass in what I hoped was ayes.
Chapter Fifty-Four
Grif
“We’re going to Tito’s, right? I need a fucking drink after tonight.” Dean leaned on the SUV down in the parking garage.
“Sounds good to me. We’ll ask them.” Jonas’ gaze shifted to us as AJ, Verity, and I joined them.
“At least we won. Boner! Great job, Gumdrop.” Dean tugged me to him, rewarding me with a greedy kiss.
“I wasn’t about to let them win,” I kissed him back, wondering if he smelled her on me.
“AJ.” Dean gave AJ a big hug.
AJ held him close. “Are you okay? He didn’t hurt you, did he?”
“I’m fine. I could’ve gone back out there. Dr. Moser was being annoying.” Dean rolled his eyes. “Little alpha.” He launchedhimself at Verity, pulling her up off the ground. “You smell so good. Mmmm, sweaty Grif and…”
His face buried in her neck as he whispered to her. She ducked her head and giggled.
Yep, he smelled us on her.
“Verity, are you coming to Tito’s with us?” Jonas asked, pulling her to him.
“Sure. I’ve got time before Mercy is done,” she told us as he ran his fingers through her hair and gave her a kiss.
Yes, she belonged with all of us.
We all got into the car. Verity sat in the back with AJ and me. I was in the middle. AJ had his arm around me, his fingers brushing the back of her neck.
I’d never get the image of her sucking his cock out of my head.
“You did so good tonight,” Verity told us, playing with my hair.
We got to Tito’s and grabbed a table. The servers were busy, so AJ went to grab us drinks at the bar.
