Trey lifted his hands to her br**sts, rubbing his thumbs over her ni**les.“You mean he’s not going to leave as soon as he blows his load?” Ethan said.“Nope. I’ll still be here in the morning,” Trey said. “Have fun at work.”He heard Ethan say something that sounded a lot like, “Lying bastard,” under his breath before he slammed the door.“I’m really sorry he’s like that,” Reagan said. “I don’t know why he’s so protective.”Trey knew, but he wasn’t about to tell Reagan that her roommate was still in love with her. Despite the reduced flow of blood to his brain at the moment, he wasn’t a total idiot.Reagan lifted her hips until Trey fell free of her body and then flopped down on the bed beside him. “What a mood killer! God, I could strangle him right now.”Trey didn’t think it would be too hard to get her back in the mood. He rolled on top of her and cradled her face between both hands. “Forget about him,” Trey murmured and kissed her lips. His hands moved in perfect unison as he car
“Closer,” she murmured. “I want you closer.”He buried his face in her neck and nuzzled her throat. “I don’t think I can get any closer,” he said, his words muffled by her flesh.Her arms and legs tightened around him. “Try.”He drew his arms against her, until he was touching her with as much of his skin as possible. She sighed in contentment and turned her face into his hair. “Thanks for indulging me. Most guys hate to cuddle.”“I love it,” he said and grinned. “Brian calls me Mr. Cuddles.”“Brian does?”Her hold on him loosened and his heart sank. He’d been so at ease that he’d let his guard down and forgotten that he was playing the role of a fully heterosexual man. “Several girls complained to him.” Even that little lie closed a part of him to Reagan. He wasn’t sure if he felt relieved or sad that he couldn’t tell her everything.She squeezed him again. “I’m not complaining.”“I’m even better at it after I come,” he said, digging his toes into the mattress and rocking forward to
“How do you deal with that stuff?”“Trust only the people who are living it with you and the people who knew you before you became famous.”“She knows she can trust me,” Ethan said. He took a seat again. His arm brushed Trey’s as he settled on the stool, and he stifled a groan of torment. The man was utterly delectable. Even when he wasn’t trying to be.“Don’t betray that trust. She’s going to need you.” Trey caught his eye and held his gaze. “Almost as much as she needs me.”Ethan’s first instinct was to protest. Reagan didn’t need anyone but him. He would protect her until the end. Keep everyone at minimum safe distance. No one would touch her or even look at her. He knew that wasn’t realistic, and though he only managed to hold Trey’s gaze for several seconds before he had to look into his coffee again, Trey was right. Reagan would need Trey, or someone in a similar position, to go to when things Ethan couldn’t understand weighed her down.“She’s important to me. Her happiness is i
Trey threw another slice of peach at his idiot brother. “I won’t be putting my snake in any dark tunnel. Unless it’s hers. I want this to work between us. I want a normal relationship. Last night was amazing. I want to keep that going.”“Trey, you can’t deny what you are. You need to find a woman who accepts that part of you as part of the package. You’ll never be happy if you give up men entirely. I know you won’t.”“Just butt out. Okay? Let me do this my way.”Dare sighed and reached for a pineapple. He hacked off the top with more force than necessary before grabbing some fancy gadget that trimmed it into a neat, hollow cylinder. “Just don’t chase her off, Trey. We need her for the tour.”“I’m not going to chase her off. I’m going to make her mine.”The doorbell rang. Trey’s heart thudded with excitement, and he stood up from the barstool. “I bet that’s Brian.”“Don’t wet yourself there, Trey.”“Shut up.” He hadn’t seen Brian in over a day. He had a lot to tell him. And he missed h
“So where is she?” Brian asked, craning his neck to look behind Trey.Trey couldn’t resist f**king with him. “She’s right here in this suitcase. She’s an amazing contortionist.”“A contortionist?”“Yeah. Why do you think I fell for her so quickly? She can wrap both ankles around her neck and lick her own clit.”Brian’s eyes widened. “No shit?”“Shit no.” Trey shook his head and grinned. “She went with Dare to pick out a guitar.”“Is she really that talented?” Brian asked.“I think she could give you a run for your money, Master Sinclair.”“We’ll see,” he said. He lifted sleeping Malcolm to his lips and then lowered him into his carrier. “I love you, little one. Keep an eye on your mom for me. You’re the man of the house when I’m away.”Jessica hovered nearby to watch the little guy snooze. Brian drew Myrna to her feet and then led her out of the room so they could say their good-byes in private. With nothing better to do, Trey went to stand beside Jessica so he could watch his godson
Brian climbed onto the airplane and took a seat across from Trey. “Look at the picture I just took,” he said, holding up his cell phone so Trey could see the screen. In the picture Brian had his arm around Myrna who was cradling Malcolm against her chest. All three of them were smiling like idiots. Even the baby, who probably just had some gas. The picture was a little blurry because Brian had taken it by holding the camera phone in front of them with an extended arm, but the love displayed in that candid moment stole Trey’s breath.“It’s great,” he said.Brian looked at the picture and smiled. “Yeah. She’s supposed to send me lots of pictures until I come home in a couple days.”“A couple days? We have two more weeks of shows.”“And any day I have off I’m flying back. Dare already said I could use the jet anytime I want.”“You’re going to wear yourself out.”“I don’t care. Knowing I’ll see them again in a few days is the only thing that got me on the plane.”“I can only imagine how h
“Trey?” she gasped in question.He silenced her with another kiss. He just wanted to come. He didn’t want to talk. And he didn’t want to think about Brian. Or even Reagan. He just needed a body to lose himself in for twenty minutes. Was that so wrong?He pushed her up the wall and struggled to hold her there with one hand while he used his other to guide his c**k into her receptive body. Once inside her, he shuddered with delight and shifted both arms to hold her securely while he thrust up into her. Things were going exactly as he’d envisioned until she began to touch him with a tenderness he didn’t deserve. He tore his mouth from hers. “We need to hurry,” he lied to explain his need for impersonal urgency.“Look at me, Trey,” she said.He buried his face in her neck. “I need to concentrate.”She grabbed two handfuls of hair and jerked his head back. “Look at me,” she demanded.He opened his eyes and then his mouth to tell her she didn’t have a right to treat him so harshly, but befo
“I think they’re afraid that I’m not man enough to go on tour with a rock band.”Eric’s gaze traveled down Reagan’s entire length. “I’d hazard to guess you aren’t man at all.”“She’s also Trey’s girlfriend,” Brian said.Eric’s head snapped around in Brian’s direction, his bright blue eyes wide with astonishment.“I know, right?” Brian said.Trey cringed. Reagan wondered why it made him uncomfortable.“Let’s go put some of your stuff under the bus,” he said.A loud mechanical sound came from near the front of the bus. Before Reagan could figure out its source, Trey took Reagan’s arm and directed her to stand with him between the captain’s chairs along one wall while a good-looking young man maneuvered his wheelchair down the aisle.“You ready to head out, Brian?” the man asked. “We’ll be on the road for hours. The other bus and equipment trucks are already in Topeka. They’ve started setting up.”“Yeah, let’s go,” Brian said. “Where are the rest of the guys?”“Jace and Sed went to get s
