lips.
“I’ll make sure you don’t notice the time.” Berenger squeezed her shoulder and dropped a kiss on her cheek.
“I’ll help him.” Teague tugged her body closer to him. His hand slid down her leg and then up again in a slow caress.
Kassius held back a groan. Piloting the Duce would be torture with them teasing and occupying her. He wished he could join them in that task but knew someone had to get them home.
Kassius settled their bill while Berenger and Teague guided her toward the exit. By the time he’d caught up with them, they were helping her into the skimmer. He climbed into the pilot’s seat and glanced back to see both Teague and Berenger in the backseat with her. After they belted in, both men angled toward her.
Kassius focused on piloting the vehicle. He took the skimmer up to entry height and headed for the orchard. The slight lifting sensation when the vehicle rose was an annoyance, but it did help him focus. He kept his mind on piloting the vehicle but couldn’t completely block the soft murmur of their voices and the rustle of clothing while they distracted her. The tantalizing noises drew his attention and tempted him to peek back at them. He resisted. His mind supplied more than enough possibilities to keep his cock aching and ready.
He landed the skimmer at the side of his house and popped the hatch as he finished shutting the machine down. Normally he’d guide it into the garage, but tonight he was in a hurry to be with Sephanie. Berenger climbed out first. He reached up and clasped Sephanie’s hips, lifting her out of the vehicle before slowly lowering her to her feet.
Chapter Five
“See? I told you you wouldn’t notice the time to get here.” Berenger dropped a kiss on her lips. Damn, he ached to do more than that, but first they had to get her inside the house. He didn’t want to share the sight of her sweet, naked body with anyone.
“And I didn’t. Is that all you intend to do?” She cocked a hand on her hip and grinned up at him, the challenge obvious.
“You might end up having trouble walking tomorrow if you’re not careful.” Berenger grasped her hips and pulled her close to him.
He didn’t know if she realized how much they desired her and a future with her. For the past few months, he’d wondered if they would ever get her into their arms. They had her with them, finally, but weren’t stopping there. He wanted to begin building a life with her. That included earning her trust enough for her to agree to marriage and eventually having her implanted birth control removed. He leaned down and nipped at her lip.
“I don’t think you three are up to that tonight.” Her hand rose, and she patted his cheek consolingly.
“Why don’t you take her inside and occupy her before her mouth earns her more than she’s ready to handle.” Teague hopped down from the skimmer. “I’ll take the skimmer and lock it in the garage. It doesn’t need to be left out, in case someone decides to mess around with it. I’ll meet you inside. I expect to see some of that luscious body by the time I get in there.”
Kassius lifted his head and looked over at Berenger. Berenger silently cursed at the reminder. They definitely shouldn’t leave any vehicles out and easily accessible.
“I can do that.” Kassius met Teague’s eyes.
“It’s all right. I’ll do this. It will only take a moment.” Teague shook his head and came around the skimmer.
Berenger swept Sephanie off her feet. She laughed and curled her arms around his neck. The press of her soft curves against him felt so right. He carried her to the house as Kassius followed them. Berenger liked the sound of her laughter and planned to hear much more of it. At the moment, he longed to hear her moan and cry out in pleasure.
“I don’t think I’ll make it to the bedroom,” Berenger said.
“Take her to the living room. We can peel her out of her dress, and I can get my mouth on her too.” Kassius
