“Rayne—”

I hit End, turned my phone on silent, and went back to sleep.

“You are in so much trouble.”

The deep voice right next to my ear had me on full alert. For a moment, I had an absolute freak-out until I recognized Cade’s smell and voice once I was fully awake. Thankfully, it was my friend who had my garage code and not some stranger who’d broken into my house in the early morning.

I rolled onto my back and scowled at him. “Youscaredme.”

He got nose to nose with me. “Youleftmy bed.”

It was too dark to see his face, but I could tell he was mad.

“I don’t understand,” I said as I tried to sit up.

He pushed me back down. “I woke up, and you weren’t there.”

“That was kind of the whole point of leaving,” I pointed out.

“Are you purposely being obtuse?” His voice was still firm, but I also caught a hint of humor in his tone, like he couldn’t believe he was having this conversation.

“No.”

“I’m seeing that now.” He stood, turned on my bedside light, and lifted the sheet from my naked body. “Why did you leave, Rayne?” His tone was less heated and more even. Starting at my neck, he ran his fingertips down my body. “I woke up hard and aching for you.” He paused at the bite mark.

I swallowed, trying not to let his touch affect me there. “I know how you feel about women spending the night, and vice versa. You don’t like it.” I shrugged. “So, I left.”

His hand continued down, over my belly and in between my legs. He froze. “You showered?”

He said it as a question, but it sounded more like a statement. I wasn’t sure if I should answer.

He gently pushed a finger into me, where I was already getting aroused again. “You washed my seed from you.”

I opened my mouth, but I didn’t really know what to say.

He pulled his hand from my body and brushed my desire over the teeth marks he’d left. “At least you still have this,” he said in a low voice, as if he was thinking out loud rather than speaking to me.

I cleared my throat and sat up against my headboard. “I don’t understand,” I whispered. “Why did you want me to stay? Why do you want to…mark me?”

“What did I tell you yesterday at lunch?”

I licked my lips. “That you get me whenever and wherever you want. And that you need full access to me all the time.”

“And?” He pulled his shirt over his head and kicked off his jeans. He wasn’t wearing underwear, and his dick stood out from his body, long, thick, and proud. “And?” he asked again.

I met his eyes.

“You can have my cock in a minute. I need you to answer my question first.”

“And…” My brain was firing blanks now.

Cade sighed, leaned over, putting our faces close, and pushed two fingers into me. “And this pussy is mine.” He thrust his fingers in and out a few times. “Technically, I said, I need full access toyour pussyall the time, but I like how you said it better.”

I moaned and closed my eyes.

He stopped. “Rayne.”
