“I’d make you watch as I licked the tip of your cock,” she whispers.

I gasp. “God, that’s nice.” I hear her voice catch. “You touching yourself, too, Sadie?”

“Mm-hmm,” she moans, and my fist tightens around myself. “Then I’d slide my mouth over your cock, swirling my tongue around as I move up and down.”

My head goes back on the headboard. “Oh…god,” I rasp, thumbing the head of my leaking cock. “My hand grabs your braid, pulling just enough to make you look up.”

“Ledger—” she moans.

“Those pretty lips wrapped around me.” I picture her tongue flat against the pulsing vein, the way her eyelashes flutter when she takes me deep. “Sucking like you need it to live.”

“Yes. God, yes.”

I pump faster, hips lifting, smelling the phantom musk of her arousal. “Tell me you’re close, baby. I’m not gonna last much longer.”

“I…” she gasps. “I’m…coming,” she says, and cries out.

“Yes, my girl.Yes…” I follow, my seed striping my stomach as the cabin spins. “Fuck…you made me come so hard.”

We lay there breathing hard, and by the time we say goodnight, I’m spent and grinning like an idiot.

I wake to my phone buzzing with multiple texts from Sadie, sent in the early morning.

Emergency temporary permit approved!

Full application expedited through my connections

You can legally harvest truffles for the contest!

I stare at the messages, throat tight. She did this. For me.

I text back:Thank you. This is all too much. I just don’t understand.

Three dots appear immediately. Then disappear. Then appear again.

I believe in you, Ledger. And also...

The phone rings.

"And also what?" I answer without preamble.

"I'm falling for you." Her voice is shaky. "I know it's fast. I know it's insane. But I woke up at four in the morning because I couldn't stop thinking about you, and I realized I needed to say it."

My heart stops. Then starts again, pounding so hard she must be able to hear it through the phone.

"You don't have to say anything. I just needed you to know?—"

"I'm falling for you too." The words tumble out, the walls around me…crumbling. "Hell, who am I kidding? I'm already gone."

The relief in her voice when she laughs makes my chest ache. "Really?"

"Come back to the cabin," I say. "Or I'll come to you. I don't care which, I just need to see you."

"Stay put," she says, and I can hear her moving, keys jingling. "I'm already dressed."

Less than an hour later, there's a knock at my door. I open it to find Sadie in jeans and long-sleeved shirt, looking nervous, but so brave. Her hair is down and wild from the drive, the blond and copper strands catching the light.

Bear pushes past me, dancing around her legs, and she laughs as she pets him, but her eyes never leave mine.
