Like we fit. “Like a lock and key,” he added, staring into the face of the woman coming to mean far more to him than she should. Than should have been possible, considering he barely knew her. “What’s your favorite color?”

She blinked. “Seriously? You’re inside me. We’re both naked on your back lawn. And you want to know my favorite color?”

He felt like an ass, but he needed to know. Like a driving force inside him, uncovering knowledge about April Soames seemed as necessary as breathing. “Tell me.”

She exhaled on a groan. “You have some seriously odd timing. First you want to know about my sister while I’m half-naked on your lap, now you want my favorite color while you’re buried inside me. But fine, whatever.” She gave him a funny look, staring straight into his eyes. “I like blue.”

“I like aqua-blue.” Teal sounded too womanly, but damn if it wasn’t his new favorite color.

“Chocolate or vanilla?” she asked.

“Vanilla.”

“No way.” She laughed at him, and he softened—finally—and fell out of her.

Not wanting this closeness to end, he lifted her to her feet and picked her up, then carried her inside to the shower. She was no lightweight. The woman had serious muscle, but Thorn had no problem holding her.

“Oh my gosh, you’re carrying me?”

“No problem.”

“Not with those muscles—Master. And you like vanilla?”

“Vanilla as a flavor, not a lifestyle,” he amended with a smile as they continued down the hall.

She smiled back, and they showered together, each cleaning the other with gentle hands, learning through touch.

After they’d dried off, they dressed in shorts and tee-shirts—because if he had to watch her prance around in a bikini again, he’d take her, and his dick might fall off from overuse. They found Lobo and sat outside, drinking iced tea.

“What about you? Vanilla or chocolate?” he asked.

“Strawberry.”

“I didn’t know that was an option.”

She smirked. “It is when I make the rules.”

“See? We’re a lot more alike than you might think. We both like to be in charge.”

“Yeah, well, in bed I’m all for you taking the lead. But out of it, that’s another story.”

He nodded. “I like that about you.”

“Oh?”

“You’re pretty confident. It’s sexy as hell.”

She blushed, and he wanted to pull her into his arms and never let go.

Not good, Thorn. And not smart. You know better. Yet he couldn’t stop himself from feeling more for her than attraction. Affection, tenderness, and lust all balled together in a knot he knew would tie him up no matter how hard he fought.

Before he could say something stupid and probably scare her off, she said, “Tell me something about yourself. I mean, I know you’re Force Recon. Everyone’s heard of the notorious, loud-mouthed company gunny at Alpha Company. I also know you’re dictatorial, obnoxious, and need better discipline on your Marines.”

“Bullshit. Corporal Harris didn’t see you that day. He wasn’t gaffing you off.”

“Oh? So he saluted the officers behind me and to the left of me, but he didn’t see me?”

“No. I was talking to
