THIRTY-ONE

The sun shines through the window, hitting my face as I slowly wake up. There’s a leg holding mine down and an arm slung across my back, and when I lift my head, I see Raffiel there, asleep. For a moment, I just soak in the sight of him. He’s naked, and the scars littering his body are proof of his harsh life, but for once, he’s not running into a situation or barking commands. No, he’s sleeping in, something I’ve never seen him do. Smiling, I lay my head back on the pillow and just watch him like a creeper, cuddling deeper into Raff Jr., who must have wormed his way into my bed during the night. He seems to split his time between all of the guys and has complete run of the house, and we hired the best dog walker and trainer around to help. It’s clear he’s fitting in like he’s always belonged here.

Just like them.

“It’s weird to watch people sleep, Miss Harrow.” Raff’s voice comes out rough, and one eye opens as he grins at me.

I snuggle deeper into the bed. I didn’t notice a change in him indicating he was awake, the sneaky bastard. “You love it,” I purr.

Grinning wider, he tugs me into his arms and closes his eye again. “Uh-uh, go back to sleep.”

“It’s morning,” I protest.

“It’s too early.” He buries his head in my neck as I grin.

“It’s nine.” I feel him stiffen and his head lifts. He’s wide awake now.

“Nine? No, it’s not.” He looks at the clock in shock. “I haven’t slept until nine . . . well, ever.”

“Then you needed it.” I lay my head on his chest, expecting him to run off and check on the others, but he simply holds me tighter. His hand caresses my body softly as he embraces me, letting me soak in his warmth. I haven’t shared a bed a lot since Tucker, and even then, it was when he was exhausted or passed out.

I like this. It’s nice. He’s warm, strong, and comforting. I feel safe in his arms. It’s as if none of the outside world could touch us here.

I have things to do and so does he, but right now, I don’t care.

I just want this moment to last a lifetime. I’m happy.

We lie like this for a while, neither of us wanting to move. We don’t talk, we just hold each other, his hand tracing my body like he’s memorizing it, and knowing Raff, he is.

“This tattoo isn’t like the others. It’s older too,” he murmurs, his hand stopping on my hip. I know exactly which one he means and stiffen, unable to meet his eyes. “Reign?”

“It was my first one,” I admit. “I was underage, and it was done by a cheap tattoo artist who spent the entire time looking at my ass.”

“Always a rebel,” he murmurs. “Lost boys? What does it mean?”

I pull away and he frowns, searching my gaze. I’ve never told anyone, not even Tucker.
