"You sweet girl." Julie engulfs me in a hug. A real one where you hold on tight and don't let go. I hug her back the same and realize I'm already a little in love with Mufasa's mom."Let the girl breathe, honey," I hear Mitch say."Mind your business," she sasses back at him, making me laugh. She le
"Mufasa, put me down," I hiss and try to wiggle more. That only gets me tossed over his shoulder. "Mufasa!" I cry out when he smacks my ass. I hear his mom laugh, and I blush."These boys are just like you, Mitch." Mufasa stops walking, and I think he's going to put me down, but I'm wrong."Thanks.
Two years later...I stand in the living room, watching the snow come down. The Christmas lights outside illuminate the big flakes fluttering to the ground."He's out," Mufasa says, coming up behind me and wrapping an arm around me, resting his hand on my new baby bump. I swear it popped out overnig
Ten years later...It's a hot summer day, and our kids are swimming at the waterfall. Bull and Teeny got here with their kids last night and they've all been thick as thieves since then. Bull and I became fast friends years ago after Rogue and Ember introduced us to them. He likes the quiet out here
Savannah Hart does not believe in crush culture anymore. She gave that up long ago, in high school. But when she finds herself flustered by the hot, tall, stranger she ran in to at her favorite coffee shop, she forces herself to admit that he's a beautiful exception. His big build, sharp suits, wits
"It's adorable."I huff at her response, picking up my glasses from beside the sink and sliding them on. "I didn't want to be adorable. I wanted to be sexy.""You're wearing Converses," she laughs in response.I look down at my shoes. I always wear shoes like these, or slip-ons. Especially to work.
"Sir, she's on the move."I pull myself from the file I've been trying to get through for an hour. I kept reading the same two lines over and over, because I'm out of my mind. With those words, I'm up instantly. When I make it to the door, Katie is already standing there with my suit jacket in hand.
I sip the coffee slowly, taking a moment to try and get myself under control. Every time I see him it's like a rush of adrenaline. I can feel his eyes on me the whole time. When I pull the cup away from my mouth I glance back at him, and the smile is gone. His face is unreadable, so I stare into his
Five years later..."How are you not used to this by now?" I take my eyes off the two agents to glance over at Henry. It still feels odd to call him that sometimes after calling him Mr. President for so long."They look at her," I growl. One thing I sure don't miss about the White House is having pe
Six months later...I bounce on the edge of the seat of our SUV about to burst with excitement. "Sweet pea. Calm down." I glance over at Ford, who is driving us home. He's smiling at me. He's let his facial hair grow a touch. I can still feel the reminder on my thighs right now. He's looked so much
July puts a hand on the president's arm and nods. "I like the sound of that. We're all out of here in six months, and I think I'd like nothing more than to raise your brother or sister with you nearby. We've got a lot of time to let this grow and plan the future."She looks up to the president, who
"The president is landing," the voice in my ear says, and I give Sloan one last kiss."We've got to go downstairs. Your dad is about to get here and I want to talk to Chad.""Okay," she says as she straightens her spine. She has more courage than I gave her credit for.Even after everything that's h
The shower shuts off and Ford steps out. He towels off and helps me down from the counter as if it's too high for me to jump from. He holds me as we walk out, and I see the blood on my bedroom floor and wall."I'll get it cleaned up." He kisses the top of my head. "You need more clothes." He smacks
Ford starts wailing on him, hitting him over and over. Two agents run over and try to pull Ford off him, but they can't. One looks over at me and I'm pretty sure it's the same one who busted us having sex. He looks at me and I know he's asking me for some kind of help."Ford," I call out. "I'm scare
I search my closet for a shirt, but I'm so frantic I can't find one even though I'm surrounded by them. I stop what I'm doing and close my eyes. I take a deep breath to calm myself down."Get it together," I tell myself.Too much has just happened. I lost my virginity, Ford told me he loves me, and
"This will only hurt a little bit," I tell her, hoping it's not a lie.I push forward another inch, and she whimpers, but I've never felt anything so fucking good. It's tight and hot and so goddamn sticky sweet."Fuck, let me in, sweet pea," I say as I press my forehead to hers and thrust in a littl
I've thought of our first kiss a thousand times, but every fantasy I came up with was weak compared to what it's like to have my lips on hers. She opens her mouth right away and I groan as my tongue touches her. I always thought the devil was the one calling the shots when he sent her to me. Why els
