Chapter Six

Sean opened one eye when he heard Macy's mother call out her name. He lifted his head, looking toward the bedroom door and saw Rose standing there with one fist on her hip.

"You too, Sean," she said. "I'm not holding breakfast a minute longer. Now up with the both of you!"

She winked at him before pulling the door shut behind her as she left. Sean looked over at Macy, grinning when he saw her. The sheet was barely covering her bottom, her long legs exposed to the hip. The night before replayed in slow motion in his mind's eye and he felt himself stir at the images. He'd taken her until their bodies were too spent to move. He lost count of the times he'd had her and knew if he never got another chance to love her, he'd have last night to sustain him. He wondered how she'd react to it this morning, though. It was easy to not think about it last night. The wine had a lot to do with it but even he wasn't naive enough to blame it completely on his inability to control himself while buzzed. Truth be known, he'd wanted her, just as he'd said he did. Wanted her and, thanks to the wine, had the guts to tell her so. She'd happily reciprocated his advances but now he worried she'd think he took advantage of her. Did he? Did he let his inebriated state of mind sway his judgment? He hadn't forced her, she said yes and clearly participated in their love play, but was she too drunk to know what she was doing?

A wave of guilt big enough to make him queasy washed over him and settled in his stomach. Would she wake hating him? Hating what he'd done to her? Would all those brothers downstairs skin him alive when they found out what he'd done?

"If we don't get moving soon, she'll be back," Macy mumbled.

Sean focused his gaze on the back of her head. "I figured as much."

She moved then, grabbing the sheet and pulling it up her back, tucking the end under her chin before sighing. "I think we got a little drunk last night."

"Yeah," he said. "A little."

She moved her head, burrowing into the pillow. "Is the morning after always this embarrassing?"

"I wouldn't know. I've never slept with a woman I wasn't already in a relationship with."

"Me either," she said. "Uh, with a man, I mean. I've never."

Sean chuckled and reached across the bed, laying his palm to her back. "I knew what you meant," he said. He leaned down and placed a soft kiss to her shoulder. "And you have nothing to be embarrassed about. If anything, I should be the one embarrassed for taking advantage of the situation."

She turned over then, looking up at him. "You didn't take advantage of me, Sean."

"No?" he said, raising one eyebrow. "Sure feels like it."

"Well, I was here too, you know. I remember how it all went down."

"Too much wine and cares thrown out the window?"

She grinned and nodded.
