“We are not moving in together, Lucas,” I told him. “I mean…what ifyousnore?”
His hips worked their way between my thighs, forcing me to have to pull my knees up around his waist. “Then I’ll just have to make sure that I work you good and hard every night, so that you pass out when I’m done with you.”
Everything female in me clenched.
“That might work,” I whispered, before I let him prove it to me.
Chapter 5
Kit~
My eyes felt scratchy and heavy, but it was also four in the damn morning, and I was operating on very little sleep.
After Lucas spent most of the night doing his best to convince me to move in with him, we had gotten only a few hours of sleep before he had gotten up to go and work on the special eggs. He’d had thirty that he needed to put together, and the church representatives were scheduled to show up at eight am. If it weren’t for the fact that it was Easter weekend, I’d accuse them of evildoings for waking people up at eight on a Saturday morning.
So, determined to start off on the right foot girlfriend-wise, I had accompanied Lucas back to his place to help him with the surprise eggs. Though he was used to working long days as the owner of a horse ranch, the man had just spent the last few hours rocking my world into orgasm after orgasm, so it was the least that I could do.
“What time are the kids supposed to arrive?”
“Around ten,” he answered. “Lunch will be served at noon, then for those that want to ride the horses, the invitation is until three.”
“Are there any kids that don’t ever want to ride the horses?” I asked as I grabbed a cute ribbon shirt to fold into the egg that I was working on.
“Some of the littler ones,” he replied. “For all their beauty, horses can be very intimidating.”
“Well, just so you know, as soon as we’re done here, I’m going home to get some much-needed sleep.”
Lucas stopped what he was doing as he looked over at me. “Excuse me?”
“Not sure if you know this or not, but I didn’t get much sleep last night,” I grinned. “I’m tired.”
“Not sure if you know this or not, but we’re a ‘we’ now, so you will be putting off that nap to help me make this another great Easter egg hunt on the ranch.”
I started nibbling on my lower lip. “Maybe we should ease into this a little more slowly,” I suggested. “We don’t want to confuse the kids.” His green eyes just stared at me. “Okay, okay…geesh.”
“I already told you that we weren’t taking this slow, and the Easter egg hunt will be our first big event as a couple.”
“Your brothers aren’t going to have questions?” I hedged.
He snorted, then went back to putting his egg together. “Racer already knows, and if he knows, then Quinten knows, and if they know, then our parents already know, so welcome to the family, baby.”
I eyed him. “What does Racer know?” While I wasn’t close to his brothers, I did know them well enough to speak to them and their families whenever they’d been visiting Lucas.
“Only that Lawrence ate your package, I saw some sexy pages, then I took the books back to my place and read them,” he admitted. “He’s the one that told me to grow some balls and finally do something about my attraction to you.”
“So, your brother knows that I wrote my hero after you?” I squawked. “How embarrassing, Lucas.”
“I promise that you have nothing to be embarrassed about,” he said kindly. “In fact, Racer told me to get an advance copy for his wife. He’s looking to get lucky.”
“Something tells me that Racer is plenty lucky,” I smirked.
Lucas just smiled. “He is,” he agreed. “He’s got a great wife, and his kids don’t make me want to disown them.”
I laughed. “Stop it,” I chided. “You know you love those kids.”
He grinned. “I do. I love my entire family, actually. I lucked out with being born into a good family.”
“Same here,” I agreed. “My parents and Sloane are good people.”
