sort of odd,” Colby agreed with a nod. “He seems to be okay, though, and I can’t say that I really mind.” He glanced over at her. “I’m glad we both decided to take the week off from work. It’s a nice start to our summer. We might not be on a real vacation like the rest of our pack, but it’s still nice to be able to spend some time alone with you . . . aside from Daven, of course. Not that I mind having him around, but we don’t get enough time with each other.”
“It is really nice,” Emma admitted.
“What do you say we forget about the food for a bit and take advantage of his nap time?” Colby asked.
Emma didn’t even need to think twice about it. Maybe it was early pregnancy hormones, or maybe it was because of how stressed out she’d been ever since her doctor’s appointment. But either way, she moved over to his chair, leaned down, and kissed him hard.
He kissed her back, rising to his feet, and they made their way over to the kitchen island where Colby pulled off the tank top she was wearing. Through ragged breaths, she unbuttoned his shirt.
Colby pushed her against the island, meeting her lips again.
As she tugged at his curly blonde hair, Emma opened her eyes and yelped when she noticed Bennett standing there behind Colby. She kept her body hidden behind Colby.
When Bennett had both of their attention, he said, “I was going to wait until you were done, but since I’ve gotten your attention, you might want to know that Master Davenport has crawled out of his crib.”
“Oh.” Emma covered as much of herself as she could as she picked up her shirt from the floor. She slid it back on and headed off to their bedroom to check on Daven.
Chapter 11: Colby
When Emma hurried off to their bedroom to take care of Davenport, Colby turned to Bennett. “You really had to interrupt that?”
“Well, I didn’t think you would want the baby to crawl all around the house,” the spirit replied.
“No, it’s just . . . What happened to you babysitting?” Colby questioned. “You couldn’t watch the baby for just a little bit?”
Bennett shrugged. “I was told you didn’t want me to babysit. Had I realized that it was okay, perhaps I would have.” He smirked. “You’re not suggesting that I interrupted your mating session intentionally, are you, Colby?”
“I don’t know,” Colby replied, his thoughts drifting back to the first time Bennett had ever interrupted him and Emma . . .

“Colby Jack?” Emma asked from her place on the couch next to him.
“Yeah?” he asked, focusing on the movie they were watching. It was Forrest Gump , which was one of his all-time favorites. He always got a little teary-eyed whenever he watched it. He couldn’t help it; it was just so sad when Bubba died.
“Well, it’s just that I’ve been thinking a lot lately, and we haven’t even. . .” Emma trailed off.
Now that she had his attention, Colby glanced over at her. He noticed that she was biting down on her lip nervously. “We haven’t even what?” he asked with raised eyebrows. He got the feeling that whatever she was about to say next was way more interesting than the movie they were watching.
“Explored each other,” she whispered.
His eyes widened. “What do you mean, exactly? We always explore each other, every day. I’ve learned so much about you in the past few weeks, just by listening in on your thoughts.”
“I know. And I’ve learned a lot about you, too,” she admitted. “But, well, we haven’t exactly explored each other’s bodies yet.”
“You want to explore me?” Colby asked, trying to conceal his grin. The idea was oddly exciting, even though he still wasn’t quite sure what she was getting at. Did she just want to look at his tattoos . . . or did she want to explore him even further than that?
“Well, we have to see each other naked eventually ,” Emma replied with a sigh. “Now is just as good a time as any, right?”
