Finally, he gave up with the teasing and turned me around, pressing me down into the mattress. I groaned as his fingers found the entrance of my pussy. He slipped two inside with ease.

I moaned as the words, “So wet,” slipped free from him.

“Please.”

Foil tore. A silent moment of anticipation as he rolled a condom down his length. Then, he thrust his way inside my welcoming body. I cried out. He hadn’t been gentle, and, fuck, I didn’t want him to be.

His hand fisted into my hair, arching my head backward and giving him better leverage to drive deeper into me.

“Is this what you wanted?” he asked into the darkness.

“More.”

And he gave me more. Until we were both sweaty, panting messes. Until I was so close to climax that I was seeing stars. Until there was nothing but want, need, and desire. This was just a dream of a second, of infinity. Nothing more, nothing less than eternity stretching out as he stretched me out.

Then, we both tipped into that deep abyss and gave over everything to that need. My walls contracted so hard that it was nearly painful as everything shuddered with relief. Gavin roared with his pleasure, emptying himself deep inside of me.

I gasped when he slid out a moment later and collapsed forward onto the bed. Gavin returned soon after and lifted me under the sheets, holding my still-trembling body.

He trailed kisses down my neck and across my shoulder. “You were perfect.”

“Mmm,” I groaned, halfway to sleep.

“My little pixie.”

I snuggled deeper against him as the day slowly came back to me. “Gavin?”

“Hmm?”

“Did Robert ask you if he could date me before we dated?”

He stilled momentarily. “He did. Did he tell you that?”

“He said that you loved me, and he knew it. So, he asked your permission.”

Gavin was silent a beat too long. “Well, it wasn’t permission. So much as he told me he was going to ask you out if I didn’t man up and do it first.”

“But you didn’t.”

“No, I didn’t.” He ran a hand up and down my back. “Would you have taken me seriously back then?”

“Hmm,” I said, as if contemplating it. Thinking of the Gavin King who was as wild and unrepentant as I was assured me that it wouldn’t work. He didn’t seem that way right now though. “Probably not. I didn’t take much seriously.”

“Yeah,” he said softly. “That’s what I figured.”

“Love complicates things anyway,” I told him.

“Indeed.”

“I’ve never told anyone I love them,” I admitted into the darkness. “Have you?”

He pressed a kiss into my shoulder blade. “No.”

I relaxed at that word. We were the same. And that was for the better. We understood each other. I didn’t want to complicate this. I wanted it to be as perfect as it was right in this moment.

I was almost asleep when I swore I heard Gavin say, “But I intend to tell you.”

But I was sure that couldn’t have been right.

PART IV

CHASING RAINBOWS

21

WHITLEY

“Dr. Bowen,” the receptionist called, stepping into my office, “your fiancé is here.”

Her cheeks dimpled with excitement, and she looked a little dazed. Gavin must have worked his charm on her.

“Thank you, Lucinda. I’ll be right out.”

I put off what I had been working on, grabbed my purse, and stepped into the hallway. My boss, Dr. Kevin Varma, entered from the next office over.

“What is this I hear? He’s here? Do I get to meet the fiancé finally?”

“He’s here,” I confirmed. “Try not to scare him away.”

Varma laughed. “I haven’t scared away any of my sons-in-law, and this one will be as good as my son as well. As you are my daughter by everything but birth.”

I glowed at that assessment. It was one of the reasons that I’d moved home. Yes, he was paying me an astronomical amount, but I felt like family here.

“Fine. Come on. Let me introduce you.”

I strode down the hallway and out into the waiting room. Gavin stood there with a bouquet of summer flowers in a riot of color to match my new hairstyle. I’d gone for an almost mermaid level of rainbow. Teal moved into blue, moved into green, and down into a deep dark purple to my cotton-candy pink. I loved it. The fact that Gavin would think to get me a bouquet of roses in the same color pattern made my heart do an unexpected flip.

“Hey, stranger,” I said with a grin.

He’d been in Midland for the last couple of days for work, and I could admit that I’d missed him. I’d really missed him.

He tugged me in close and brushed a needy kiss on my lips. “Hey, you. Miss me?”

I snagged the flowers from him. “Maybe.” I held the flowers to my nose to hide my secret smile and turned to Dr. Varma. “Gavin, I’ve been meaning to introduce you. This is Dr. Varma.”
