For the first time in forever, Merlin felt at peace as Gwen snuggled closer, her body curled against his side, her head resting on his chest. Her touch and her essence soothed him in a way nothing had since he’d joined the service. He should be sated after hours of nibbling, tasting, and kissing every inch of her, but he wanted more. Even with her lack of experience, she’d responded to him like they’d been together forever.

Fuck. He was almost thirty-six years old. No way would he have believed he’d come twice in one night, let alone three times.

As he drifted off, he told himself it would only be a few moments. But when he opened his eyes, it was zero three hundred. Gwen had flung her arm over his chest and her leg rested across his thigh. A rustling sound made him tense as he checked his surroundings. Two golden eyes watched him from the foot of the bed. He’d forgotten about the cat. At some point, Galahad had joined them. Gwen hadn’t been kidding about his purr. The cat sounded like a motorboat. It amazed him she could sleep through it.

Merlin eased Gwen’s arm off his chest and slid out of bed, hoping not to wake her. After finding his jeans and pulling them on, he turned to find Galahad had already taken his place next to the sleeping woman. His bare feet didn’t make a sound as he padded to the kitchen to find something to drink. Taking a glass from the cabinet, he poured a glass of water and then stood in front of the French doors in her living room, staring out into the star-filled sky.

It was too early to call the guys, but he’d have let them know he wouldn’t be making PT. He couldn’t bring himself to leave Gwen, especially while she was sleeping.

“What’s wrong?” Her soft, sleepy voice startled him.

Again, Gwen had snuck up on him. Always on guard, checking his six was second nature. Yet she’d snuck up on him twice. Not even the team could pull that off, and they’d tried countless times. It didn’t make sense.

He turned to answer her, and his breath caught in his throat. The muted light from the full moon made her look angelic. She’d put on his T-shirt, and her bare legs peeked out from under it. Lust slammed into him. He wanted to pick her up and carry her back to bed.

Merlin swallowed his need. The woman had to be sore. “Nothing at all, princess. I’m sorry if I woke you.”

‘You didn’t. The cat did. Then I realized you were gone.”

“Figures. He’s a loudmouth.”

Gwen giggled. “Yes, he is. I’ve never had a cat who purred like him. It’s like he’s got an amplifier inside.” She pulled Merlin over to the sofa, and as they sat, she curled into his side.

It should have felt awkward. They barely knew each other. But it was like he’d come home. Merlin kissed her forehead and wrapped his arm around her, pulling her even closer.
