“I know, I know. Hoes before bros. Chicks before dicks, and all that.” She giggles.
We get out and grab our bags. After a few trips back and forth, the four of us have the Jeep unpacked.
Once we’re inside, Griff grabs my hand and pulls me close, wrapping his arms low around my hips. “Which room are we taking this week? Yours or one of the primary bedrooms?” His lips graze my ear, sending chills down my neck and arms.
“We can take the primary bedroom down here on the main level. Katie and Carson’s rooms are both upstairs, so . . .”
“So . . . what? Being on a different level won’t stop them from hearing you scream my name all night, Sunshine. You’re smart, gorgeous, funny, athletic, witty, and all the things, but you’re not quiet, my love. At least not when my fingers or mouth are between your legs.”
Wiggling out of his embrace, I take the two steps down into the great room—one of my favorite rooms at the cabin. It has vaulted ceilings with exposed cedar beams, floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the lake, and a two-story stone fireplace. The furniture is oversized to make the space feel cozy instead of cold and grandiose. Mom and Dad replaced the furniture when they remodeled the place four years ago. What used tobe a dark, outdated house is now beautiful with warm tones and modern rustic finishes throughout.
I walk to the back wall of windows that overlook the lake and take in the scenery. The room Griff and I are staying in faces the same direction and has a floor-to-ceiling view as well. Griff comes up behind me, making my back melt into his front. I love when he wraps his arms around me like this. I’ve never felt more safe and secure than I do when I’m wrapped in his arms.
“I think we should get our bags unpacked. I’ll get Ranger’s food and water dishes set if you want to move his dog bed from your usual room into our room.”
Griffin has been so considerate today. It makes me want to show him how appreciative I am of him.
“Thank you. Once you get his bowls set up, will you meet me in our room?”
“Mhmm,” he murmurs in my ear, placing light kisses down my neck before he says, “why do I love hearing you say ‘our room’ so much? Watch out, I could get used to that, Sunshine.”
Butterflies swarm out of their cage in my belly, causing me to literally gasp at his comment. I think he takes it as I’m shocked by his words because he chuckles as he steps away into the kitchen. But really, I’m trying to grasp the fact that my wildest dreams are coming true at this moment.
Griffin
I’m standing in the doorway of our bedroom, finishing a reply to the text my agent, Jared, sent me about possible Name, Image, Likeness, or NIL, deals he has in mind for me. He wants me to give him a call after the Fourth of July to go over this new policy the NCAA passed. I tell him I’ll get back to him early next week. These deals could be huge for me and my teammates. There are several guys on the team who have to work full-time jobs over the summer to cover living expenses not covered by their scholarships.
The sound of a throat clearing has me looking up from my phone.
In front of me is the most bewitching sight I’ve ever seen. Kenna is standing in front of me in a revealing, lacy, red bodysuit.
“Holy fuck, Sunshine. You know I love you in red,” I say as I close the door and flick the lock behind my back, not willing to take my eyes off her. “What’s the special occasion?”
“No special occasion . . . I just wanted to show you how thankful I am for you. Do you like it?”
“Is that a serious question? I love it. I’m obsessed.” I pounce on her, pulling her in for a desperate kiss. Dragging myself away from her lips, I step back and circle my fingers at her, signaling her to give me a full look. Kenna turns around slowly, giving me a luscious view of her thong-clad ass. Just above her left hip bone, I notice something stitched into the fabric of her lingerie.
“What is this?” I grasp her hips to stop her from turning.
“I may have stitched your number on here as a little surprise,” she says in a shy voice. When I look up at her, her cheeks are flushed, and she smiles bashfully back at me. I look back down and see a small ninety-one stitched in black thread.
“Love, if you keep this up, I’m going to have a hard time going back to Boston in the fall.”
Her face falls as the meaning of my words sinks in. Before I can try to reassure her that we’ll be fine come the fall, there’s a loud knock on the door.
“Stop whatever you’re doing and get your asses out here. We’re going for a boat ride in five,” Carson hollers through the door.
I sigh before I give Kenna’s ass a squeeze. “Unfortunately, for what I have planned for you, we’re going to need a lot longer than five minutes.Thisis getting put back on later,” I demand as I trail my fingers along the fabric covering her pussy.
“Mmm—you’re soaked, Sunshine.” I groan as I crash my mouth to hers. Right as I’m about to say fuck it to the boat ride, Katie pounds on the door.
“Hurry up, you two harlots!”
“Did she just . . .” I trail off, shaking my head at my sister’s antics.
“She did. Come on, we both know she’s not moving away from that door until we’re both out there.”
We change into our suits and head out for a day of wakeboarding and tubing with Carson and Katie before the others get here this evening.
