to hold off the impending
orgasm. But fuck, her nerves were on edge as he toyed with her. Cool air met
her center before he curled his finger, finding the spot that many believed
didn’t exist.
She clawed the couch and cried out. Her legs tightened
around his head as her body tensed from pleasure before her thighs fell back
open and she breathed heavily. Braden kissed his way back up her and brushed
her hair from her face.
“You taste of honey.”
“You’ve got a magic tongue. Is it my turn to show you what I
can do?”
“Nah, I can wait.” He pulled her up and cuddled her into his
side. “I just want to sit here and hold you for a little while.”
She reached across his chest and closed her eyes.
“I keep worrying I’m going to wake up and this is all a
dream.”
“Why?” She ran her hand along his stomach.
“I just never expected it.”
Quietly, she said, “Me either.”
“How long until you have to be at work?”
She sighed. “Don’t remind me.”
He chuckled. “How about I help you close again tonight? I
hate the idea of you and the other two girls having to get to your cars in the
dark.”
She sat straight and smiled at him. “Our knight in shining
armor.”
“Anything but.”
“We’re fine, but I won’t object if you want to come up.”
He kissed her lips. “Good.”
She reached toward the floor and grabbed her pants. “How
about I make us something to eat? Do you have time?”
“Yup. Only plans I have today is dinner with my brothers.”
She stood and pulled her clothing on. “Must be great having
Nathan back for a few days.”
“I guess.”
She plopped back down. “You’re the least energetic Carver I
know. They are always so happy, Melissa included. Yet you aren’t. Were you
adopted?”
“I sometimes wonder, but I look so much like them.”
“You’re much hotter.”
“It’s only because I’m younger.”
She ran a hand through his hair. “Wait here. I’ll be back
with a sandwich and chips.”
As she entered the small kitchen, he said, “Don’t worry, I’m
not going anywhere.”
That she believed. Braden had always been there, only now
he’d swooped in and captured her heart.
Chapter 10
Braden entered the small diner where he was meeting his
brothers for dinner. He was surprised they’d invited him to be a part of their
meal. Nathan and Tucker usually forgot about him when they went to do things.
He tried not to let it bother him, after all, they had some kind of special
twin bond.
Nathan raised his hand, and Braden went to the booth and
scooted in next to Tucker.
“What’s up?” Tucker asked.
“Not much.”
“Where’d you disappear off to today?” Nathan asked as he
opened the menu.
Sometimes it felt like his older brothers thought they were his
parents. “I went to Courtney’s for a little bit.”
Tucker patted his shoulder. “It’s still weird seeing you two
together.”
He shrugged. “Get used to it.”
“I’m happy for you.” Nathan closed the menu.
“Thanks.” Braden leaned back in his seat and glanced at
Tucker. “I meant to congratulate you. I was kinda grumpy when you and Lauren
announced your news.”
“Don’t worry about it. She told me later on about your
conversation with Mom.”
He didn’t want to be reminded of that. “Ticks me off. Why
would she not like Courtney? Has she said anything to either of you?”
Nathan shook his head. “Nah. Nothing.”
“She mentioned she thought you were getting in over your
head and she worried you’d be broken-hearted,” Tucker said.
“It’s my heart,” Braden grumbled.
The waitress appeared at the table. “Sorry it took me so
long to get over here, boys. It’s just me tonight. What can I get you?”
They each ordered their drinks and meals.
“You should bring Courtney around Mom. Let them meet,”
Nathan suggested.
He shrugged. It was worth a shot. If they got to know one
another, maybe his mom would see that she was a good woman. “I just don’t
