Chapter Ten

Elliot

I woke up with the hard-on of all hard-ons and groaned, squeezing the base of my dick. I had yet another dream of the weekend prior, of Sidney sliding between Trace and me, sweat slick, glistening, and so damn sexy. It was hard to believe that she had been ours for the evening.

I knew, going into that encounter, that it wouldn’t last for long because we all had different lives, but part of me couldn’t wait for her to come back.

I sat up, ignored my raging erection, and rubbed my hands over my face.

“Snap out of it, Wilder,” I screamed quietly into my palms. I needed to shower and get on with the day. There were things to do, family to prep, things to organize. I didn’t understand why it felt like I was wading through mud to do what I was made to do. Sidney would be coming back. She was only two hours away. And until then, I had to focus on my job and everything else in between.

And Trace was still here, still confusing me as ever.

I slid out of bed, thankful my erection was finally dying down, and went to get ready for the day. I pulled my hair back from my face, the little bun in the back making my lips twitch. Oh, my dad would be rolling his eyes so hard right now if he ever saw that.

I ran my hand over my chest as I made my way outside, coffee in hand.

It made me sad, just a little, that I was about to be organizing a family reunion and my entire family wouldn’t be there. Eliza and her husband and kids would be flying in from Colorado, but our parents were gone. They had been gone long enough that it didn’t shock me anymore when I thought about it. They would never know we were working together like we were. But it still made me sad to think that as we organized this huge family reunion, with two sets of cousins, that only one set of parents would be there.

And it really made me think for once about my uncle, who no longer had his brother. Soon my cousins and their parents would be on the Wilder grounds, and we would have a meal, and go hiking, and do all the other things that I was currently planning. There would always be a sense of loss. It didn’t matter that our families were growing, that there would be grandkids at this event where there hadn’t been the last time we had done this over a decade ago. My parents still wouldn’t be there.

In my head, I could hear Miles rolling his eyes so hard and laughing. He would tell me once again that I needed to look at the good things. But that was odd coming from a ghost. Miles was gone too. Just like my parents. And yet here I was, planning an event without my parents, after having a weekend where I’d been with two different people, and still wanting them.
