HUDSON

I’ve always known I lived a charmed life. But nothing has ever driven that fact home the way Maddie did earlier tonight. I lie awake for hours, watching her sleep. Knowing without a shred of doubt this is where she belongs. Next to me. In my bed. In my arms.

It’s funny the way things snapped into focus.

Like somehow, I’ve always known and only just accepted it.

Is this what it was like for my dad each time he thought he fell in love?

Just as that thought pushes it’s way to the forefront of my mind, she tucks herself in closer and presses her lips to my chest.

And suddenly, that’s it.

I know I’m done fighting this.

She’s it.

As if sensing my warring thoughts, she moves her lips up my body until they’re pressed against my jaw. Her arm slides across my chest, and her legs tangle with mine.

She might not be the most comfortable with touching by day, but she has no problem doing it while she sleeps. When her thumb grazes my nipple and her teeth graze my chin, I pull away.

No way is it going down like this. Maddie half asleep after she just bared her fucking soul is not going to be how we remember our first time together.

“Sunshine,” I whisper against her soft skin. “You’re driving me crazy, baby.”

“Mmm,” she hums. “Make me feel something, Hudson,” her sleepy voice begs. “I want to feel you. I want you to replace those memories with something else. Something better.”

My fingers dig into the warm skin of her waist and flip us over, leaving me hovering above her.

Maddie’s heavy eyes flare with desire. She doesn’t flinch. There’s no pulling away. “I want to replace those memories with you, Hudson.” Her nails skim gently over my chest, sending chills racing down my spine. “I want your hands on me.”

“Are you sure about this, Madison? Because once we cross this line, there’s no going back. You’ll be mine, and I won’t let you go.” I hold myself above her, refusing to let go of her eyes until she answers me.

She reaches up and frames my face as her warm breath fans my jaw. “I’m already yours, Hudson. I think I have been for a while now.”

And that’s it.

That’s all I need to hear.

My restraint shatters, and I crash my mouth to hers, swallowing her moan. There’s nothing slow or soft about this kiss as I fight myself to stay controlled. We’re a clash of teeth and tongues, while my hands skim down her body and Maddie pulls me closer to her, leaving no distance between us and sending every sense into hyperdrive.

I drag my tongue down her graceful neck and smooth my hands up her rib cage, cupping her breast. My calloused thumb traces her nipple, and her back bows off the bed with a sexy little catch in her breath.

“Are you wet for me, Madison?”

She moans when I tug her nipple between my thumb and forefinger. “Yes,” she pants.

“Good.” I tug at her shirt, ripping it over her head and dropping it to the floor.
