NOLAN

My eyes open to the most spectacular sight. Sofia Kendall. Naked. In my bed.

It seems after all these years of wanting the beautiful woman, finally making love to her could only be some kind of self-torturous dream. Yet here she lies next to me, sleeping peacefully with her blond hair spread out across her creamy white shoulder, looking surprisingly vulnerable and innocent. The way her skin felt under my fingertips, the way her scent embraced me like a floral cloud, the way she squeezed my cock, it was un-fucking-real.

She was only somewhat hesitant when I first kissed her, and she most certainly didn’t hold back once we were undressed. Does this mean she’s past all that other “friends” bullshit and we have a real shot at starting a future together? I can’t imagine moving on with another woman, even if Sofia turned out to be someone different from what I’ve imagined. She’s strong, confident, and unwilling to bend to other’s needs. Hell, I was actually glad when she had been straight up with me about having intimacy issues.

But does that mean she’ll struggle in committing to something more than a good time? And what if she only did this as a pity fuck? Could that really be all this was to her after all we’ve been through?

Rolling away from her to my back, I stare up at my lofted ceiling and begin to tick through the list of things that have to be done in the next few days. Arrangements will have to be made for Grams’s body as well as her things. I’ll have to consider either having James’s former boxing trainer step into my place tonight or have the fight postponed since there’s no way in hell I can give James the attention he deserves. I’m sure Crestford informed my parents, though I suppose I should call to make sure, even if having a conversation with my mother will be nearly as painful as discovering Grams had passed.

I quietly slip from the bed and retrieve my phone from my pants pocket to call my mother from the living room. Just when I think she’s not going to answer, I hear her heavy breaths. Is she seriously fucking crying?

“Mom?”

“Nolan. Hello, darling.” She says with a pant. I wait for her to ask me how I’ve been or how I’m dealing with the news since we last spoke over a month ago. She had only reached out to me as Grams’s power of attorney since she was looking for an advanced loan on her share of the trust.

“Did Crestford call you?” I finally ask when she doesn’t offer anything more.

“Yes. Your father and I are simply heartbroken. I’ve already been in contact with the funeral home and Father Jenkins. The viewing and service are set for tomorrow evening at the church. She’ll be laid to rest at Woodlawn.”

Fuck! Pulling my phone away from my ear, I resist the need to launch it across the fucking room. Although my mother
