Aidan

We stay in bed late into the afternoon, but I’m awake most of the time, staring at the ceiling.

Last night was the best night of my life, hands down. Waking up to Stella this morning, her eager hands touching me, silently asking for me, felt like something out of a dream. Something I’ve thought about, wanted, for years and never thought I could have. Rolling her onto her back, sliding inside her, making her come—all things I feel like I was built to do for her, with her. Forever.

I should be on cloud nine. But instead, as I lie in her comfortable bed, listening to her soft, deep breaths, her naked body warm against mine, all I can think of is if I’m about to lose it all.

I texted Gunner this morning to let him know what’s going on, and he told me to head to HQ that afternoon for a meeting to determine how to proceed. In fact… I glance at my cell phone and stifle a groan. I need to get going now.

Stella stirs in my arms, lifting her head up and blinking sleepily. “What’s going on?”

I kiss her nose. “You’re the most beautiful woman in the entire world. That’s what’s going on.”

She smiles, tracing a finger over my chest. She glances at my phone laying on the nightstand. “I’m guessing it’s time for you to leave.”

I sigh, much more heavily than I intended. “Yeah. I wish I didn’t have to. But I have to meet with the cops and then…I’m expected tonight.”

She swallows. “I’m scared.”

I tilt her chin up and bring her lips to mine. “Don’t be scared. I’m not scared.”

“You’re not?”

I absolutely am, but I flash her what I hope is a reassuring smile. “I got the cops on my side for the first time in my life. I’m gonna be fine.”

Stella gives me a sad look. “Don’t bullshit me.”

I sigh again. “Yeah. I’m a little scared. But that’s why I’m meeting with them first. They’ll help me out. And if they want to pull me out…they will.”

“Come back to me,” Stella says softly.

“There’s nowhere else I’d rather be,” I reply, kissing her again.

I dress quickly, and she walks me to the door. I turn around and sweep her into my arms. “I owe you a real date,” I murmur. “Fancy dinner. Wine. Flowers. The whole nine.”

She smiles into my cheek. “I’d like that, but I’d settle for you in my bed, me in your arms, watching some movies.”

“That sounds like heaven.” I cup her face in my hands and kiss her tenderly. “Soon. I promise.”

“Okay,” she whispers.

I kiss her once more, then turn to leave, willing myself not to look back.
