The girls had already fallen asleep, leaving Amber and Lauren awake in the living room of the suite.

It felt like old times—back when the only things on their minds were school and work.

“That old apartment had a lot of memories,” Lauren said, braiding the ends of her hair. “And now that I think about it, our neighbors might have hated us.”

Amber laughed, thinking of everything that had happened in those days.

From finding out who Mishca really was …

Discovering her ex sleeping with her cousin in her own bed.

Kyrnon meeting said ex with only a hand towel to hide his junk.

They’d had the best of times, and even as some doubts had crept in, she still couldn’t bring herself to regret anything about where she was and who she was with.

She couldn’t imagine her life without them.

The sound of the elevator arriving made both of them glance up in confusion, knowing that the only set of keys that would allow anyone up here were held by them and the front desk.

But they didn’t have enough time to panic before Kyrnon came stumbling in with Red and Luka in tow.

“Where’s—?”

“The Russian had a work thing to deal with, and this one,” he said with a jerk of his thumb in Kyrnon’s direction, “got a little homesick.”

When it became clear that he meant Kyrnon was homesick for her, Amber laughed as she crossed the floor to him, catching some of his weight when he stumbled, even as he pulled her into his arms.

“You’re supposed to be out enjoying your night,” she reminded him.

“I’ll have nearly a whole twenty-four hours before I have to wait to see you in a couple of days. Let me enjoy this.”

Had it ever been possible for her to say no to him? To completely ignore the way he cupped her face in his scarred hands and gently kissed the middle of her forehead.

And from her forehead, he kissed her temples, then the tip of her nose, both her cheeks, and finally … her lips.

She kissed him back.

For everything she was worth—losing herself in that moment with him.

She could taste the alcohol on his tongue, even as she felt the urgency of his hands as they slipped around her and held her tight.

“I won’t leave you standing alone this time,” he whispered as he pulled away.

Of that, she had no doubt. “Now, or later, I’ll always show up.”

“All right, lover boy. We’ve got one more stop to make,” Red pronounced, gently pulling him away.

“They’re trying to kill me. It’s a plot against me.”

“Have fun, babe.”

Kyrnon shook his head hard even as Niklaus led him back out. “Not fun. It’s not—”

“Don’t worry,” Niklaus said as he got them onto the elevator. “He’ll make it in one piece.”

She certainly hoped so.
