Chapter Eight

Brock sipped his coffee, watching Sarah while she wiped down the counter after making them breakfast. Last night had been unlike any he’d ever experienced unless he counted Mina. He’d never controlled a woman’s orgasm except for hers, and now in the light of day, he wasn’t sure how he felt about it.

He had a second chance standing right in front of him. Any other man would be honored and thrilled to have Sarah as his mate. She was not only beautiful on the outside, but the inside as well. The woman had a heart of gold. She’d given him friendship well before either of them knew they might be mates. Not many others would have offered to help him tear apart his past and bury it once and for all. Yet, she had.

He was so confused. Were the feelings coming to the surface real or simply his desire to be complete again? With every fiber of his being, he wanted to be what she needed. Was it selfish of him to want to be normal again? The one thing that held him at bay was his ability to protect her from harm. He’d failed once, and his wife and son had paid the ultimate price.

“All set. Are we ready to go work on the house?”

He jerked from his thoughts and caught the smile she flashed him. It would melt any man’s heart, including his.

He rose and walked to the sink, rinsed his cup and placed it in the dishwasher. He pulled her into his arms and kissed the top of her head. Her silky hair was like a caress on his lips. “Thanks for helping. You’ve been a rock through all this, and it means a lot to me.”

She tipped her head up, gazing at him as if searching for something. “I’m happy to be there for you.” She placed her palm on his cheek. “Even if we weren’t mates, I’d still be your friend.”

He waggled his brows. “Friends with benefits?”

She laughed. He loved her laughter. It lightened his heart and made him forget his troubles, even if briefly. He would have to remember to make sure she laughed often. Here I go again, planning a future with her.

“Well, considering I was teetering on the edge of insanity due to the lack of sex, I’d say it would have been a good possibility.” She traced a finger down the center of his chest. Her lips curled into a seductive smile. “I’m looking forward to sharing a shower with you later.”

He pulled in a breath. “Darlin’, we’d best be going before I strip you right here and now.”

He took her hand and pulled her out the door before either of them could change their mind. Elias would be coming over to help them soon, and he didn’t want the younger prince standing around waiting. Brock led Sarah across the sandy beach to the back of his house.

“Didn’t you say you have a friend coming to help today?” Sarah asked, stepping through the open door.
