“But I hope we don’t miss anything important while we’re gone.”
He laughs and rolls me to my back, pinning me with his body.
“Hate to break it to you, babe, but youwillsurvive if you miss something around here.”
I make a grumbly sound.
“My baby and her FOMO.”
He kisses my jaw as his hand snakes up my body, gliding from my hip until he’s got a handful of breast.
“Seriously? Again?” I ask.
“Told ya you were in for it,” he teases while licking my mate mark, making me shiver.
He maneuvers me into a reverse cowgirl position and keeps his hands on my hips, moving me to and fro while he slides inside me.
I must not be energetic enough because it doesn’t take long before he goes from moving my hips for me, thrusting from underneath, to getting onto his knees and letting me fall face-first so he can finish me off from behind.
Though I’m a bit of a ragdoll, I’m very present because I’m enjoying his sounds along with the sensations which include kisses dotted all over my back, shoulders, and neck. I’m also very much enjoying his touch. All of it results in me coming pretty darn quick. As soon as I hit the peak of an orgasm, his knot takes over and before I can come down from that peak, I’m hitting a summit that’s even higher.
I must fall asleep immediately afterwards because it feels like a blink after his knot releases, I’m waking up with the waking sun beginning to brighten the bedroom underneath his hot, muscled body.
I’m on my tummy, he’s got a leg thrown over me, his face buried in my hair, our fingers threaded together.
I kind of need to pee.
But maybe if I close my eyes and ignore it, I’ll fall back asleep.

I kiss her shoulder and she stirs.
“I’m gonna catch up with the guys after their run for a quick chat. Be back in an hour or less.”
“M’kay. Luff loo,” she mumbles and is immediately snoring, mouth open, and too adorable.
I pull the comforter up over her and pull her scent into my lungs before I head out, locking the door, which I’ve rarely done here but know it’s something that’s now a necessity.
I don’t like the feeling I’ve got about that drone, and I want to know where it came from.

“Look who it is!” Mase greets as I emerge from the water behind the falls in human shape. When I pull myself up onto the ledge, The six of them are sitting here having a conference. They’re all dressed in swim trunks so it’s clear nobody took the chance of running on four paws this morning with what happened last night.
“We have news?” I ask, popping the cooler lid to grab a blue Gatorade, taking a long drink while Joel answers.
“None,” Joel says. “No fingerprints on the drone. Nothing to help us figure out who owned it. But we’ve got patrols out and Linc and I put up four new surveillance cameras at points along the river in the middle of the night. We’ve already got those newones along the lake but now we’ve also got one up top of the falls and one here in this cave, for extra safety.
We got caught back with Wyatt Meadows at the lake the night of Erica’s birthday party, so it’s good we’re ensuring the river isn’t another point of vulnerability. After my sister’s jump, I’m also not surprised he put a camera up top.
“What I wanna know,” Linc says, “is whether this means we’re still in the middle of your drama or if this is the start of mine.”
I finish a long swig of the drink and give him a meaningful look.
“Nothing uneventful about any of our matings thus far,” Grey remarks.
