CHAPTER NINE

Awareness wove through Mason in threads. Sound, first. The familiar quiet of the farm. Warmth, next, a heat along his back. There was a pillow under his head. Sheets covering naked skin.

He opened his eyes. An unfamiliar room swam into focus. The fragmented, golden light of dawn swept across it.

Somebody shifted behind Mason.

In a deluge, the previous night poured over him. He remembered the weight of want in his stomach. Charlie’s eyes, dark and fathomless. The curl of his smile. The sweetness when he had said darlin’ in that hypnotising tone of voice.

The way Mason had been cracked open. The way he’d given in.

Fear churned inside him. It bubbled up like bile, but the acid didn’t quite sting his sated body. Mason was a symphony, every single bit of him aligned. He couldn’t remember ever feeling so rested. He hadn’t noticed the aches he’d been collecting over the years until right then, obvious in their absence.

Everything felt weightless. His body belonged to him in a way it hadn’t in years, that first deep breath after being tossed by waves.

Mason jumped as the arm over him tightened.

“Good mornin’. I can hear your thoughts tickin’,” Charlie’s raspy voice greeted, and fuck if it wasn’t insanely hot to hear him like that.

“Is that what they’re doing?” Mason said weakly.

“Somethin’ like that. You mind turning around for me?”

Mason considered protesting, but it wasn’t worth the drama that would cause. He flipped to his other side, locking eyes with Charlie.

The Dom was smiling, a soft, intimate thing. “Hi.”

“Hi,” Mason whispered back. There was an alarm blaring somewhere in his head. His mom’s bruised face flickered in his mind, a spluttering, worn-out reel.

“If I ask you how you’re feelin’, do you think you’ll tell me the truth?” Charlie asked.

Mason chewed the inside of his mouth. “I’m just…not used to staying over the night.”

“Mmm. How was last night? We didn’t have a chance to debrief.”

Yeah, ’cause you fucked me unconscious, Mason wanted to say. “It was good.”

“Okay. Not real specific. Let’s see…if you could keep just one bit of it for the next scene, what would it be?”

It was completely unfair that Charlie was lobbing these questions at him right after they woke up. Mason’s brain was still mushy from sleep, guards half-lowered. “I don’t know. That’s a hard question.”

Charlie raised his eyebrows, waiting.

Mason tried to pick apart the elements of their scene. His body went hot just remembering what had gone on. Fuck, the way he’d slipped near subspace the moment he got on his knees…

That had never happened to him before.

Mason tried to conjure the truth. To say, ‘The way you praised me. The way you called me sweetheart.’ Maybe that would send the wrong message, though. “I liked how you fucked me.”

Charlie gazed at him steadily. Mason was sure he’d challenge the cop-out answer, but he just nodded. “What about something you’d rather not have next time?”

“You seem real confident that there’s going to be a next time,” Mason countered.

Charlie actually looked taken aback.
