that fucking wrecks me. Needing her close, I graze my lips over hers.
“I’ll be right back.”
After taking care of the condom in the bathroom, I find her snuggled in my comforter, sound asleep.
Taking care not to wake her, I slide in behind her and pull her to me, my chest to her back, but she turns in my arms and splays out half on top of me and falls asleep.
Her warmth, the way she fits against me, how her hair falls over us—it’s one of the best things I’ve ever felt.
And right here, right now, I somehow know nothing will ever be the same again.

GABBY
A huge, calloused hand rests on my right breast. Warm breath heats my shoulder. And one oversized quarterback hugs me from behind.
That’s not the only thing hugging me from behind.
I squint into the sunlight streaming through the window, hating how my head pounds. How much did I drink last night? Just a few beers. And a shot or two. Ugh, never again. I never knew I was such a lightweight.
Blinking, I try to make out the small square of torn foil next to my face.
A condom wrapper.
Holy shit, I had sex with Rider. Twice.
You’d think the large naked man plastered to me would be the clue.
Or the giant erection pressing against my ass.
Squinting again, I spot my glasses on the nightstand next to his alarm clock. It’s still early, which is good because we promised Sienna we’d be home to watch Poppy in time for her to go to brunch.
As great as last night was, I’m guessing Rider is going to be weird about me still being in his bed.
I assume awkward morning-after conversations are always better dressed. With that thought in mind, I attempt to scoot out of bed. Except that arm tightens and scoops me right back to him.
I chuckle and try to make a joke, but my voice is hoarse from screaming.
Girl, good thing the music was pounding last night or the whole neighborhood would know you were getting plowed.
I can safely say I’ve never screamed during sex before last night. There’s now a line in the sand of my life—before sex with Rider Kingston and after.
I clear my throat. “If you try to drill me again with that weapon, I won’t be able to walk for a week.”
We woke up sometime in the middle of the night for a second round that somehow ended up being as vigorous as the first.
He laughs, the warm, raspy sound sending tingles down my body. “Sorry. Are you sore?”
I roll over to face him, and gah! He’s got this sleepy, sexy look in his eyes that makes me melt, but I know how guys get the morning after, so I refrain from pouncing on him for some morning snuggles. Sean was not a snuggler. I can’t imagine that Rider wants me in his space right now.
His eyes pass over me, and his smile grows. “Come here.”
Or maybe he does.
“No sex,” I warn. My lady parts need a rest.
“No sex.”
Not needing another invitation, I toss an arm and leg over him and rest my head on his chest.
“Mmm. You’re so warm.” I wiggle closer, and I can feel his lips on my forehead pull into another smile. Seriously, naked snuggling with Rider is the best thing ever. I’m almost tempted to reward him with more sex. I’m so content, I blurt out the truth. “I’m waiting for you to be a dick and kick me out of your bed.”
“I’m not gonna be a dick.” He sounds mildly offended. “I like having you in my bed.”
God, his hotness factor just increased tenfold.
The sound of his gravelly morning voice is a potent aphrodisiac, and my nipples are hard little points, which I subtly rub against him for the friction. “You sound surprised that you like having me here.”
“You keep rubbing against me like that, and you’ll get a surprise.” He reaches under the covers, flexes his hips, and smacks me with his morning wood.
Laughing, I sit up and attempt to tickle him, but he moves so fast, I’m on my back before I blink. Except wrestling on a queen-size bed with a massive man is a bad idea because now I’m hanging off the bed.
He chuckles. “This is an interesting predicament you’re in, Miss Duran.” He blatantly stares at my boobs, which are giving him a high salute as I arch off the bed.
“Let me up, fool.”
Leaning down, he slowly licks one nipple before he takes it into his
