“You want out? You’ll have to get past me to reach the door tonight. I’m certain you won’t make it that far,” he threatened with a sneer just as bright rays of light blinded me, and firm hands grabbed my hair and pulled.”

“She rubbed her fingers on my beard again. “This is new.” She tilted her head as if examining with her eyes now. Her fingers weren’t enough. I worried she might not like the longer style I was carrying. “I can shave it off, if you want,” I said quickly. “No!” And her slender fingers grabbed my beard. Yeah, it was long enough for that, and it still tugged painfully, so I winced. “Don’t you dare take it off. I like it,” she said with a rumble in her voice that sent vibrations all the way down. My Cupcake was possessive.”

“I still feel like I need your forgiveness. I can’t… I can’t move forward without that.” My heart burned with his pain. “You’re already forgiven, Jace. You’ve always been forgiven. Now let it go. Let us both be free of it.” A small, shaky breath escaped him, and he nodded, his eyes glistening with emotion. “Thank you,” he whispered, his voice raw. “You never needed to ask.” I kissed him lightly on the mouth. “Now hold me tight and don’t let go.” “Yes ma’am.” He chuckled and wrapped his arms around me as he spooned me. Never had my bed felt this warm.”

“I held my breath and watched him pick one up and bring it to his mouth. He admired the swirl of dark cream again before taking a bite. His eyes widened, and he let out a moan of pleasure. He sat down on the stool, like his body couldn’t handle the emotions the flavors caused him. “Man, I need another one.” This time, he grabbed one with white frosting. Lemon and strawberry. He groaned and I thought my insides were going to melt. My heart was certainly beating at an odd rhythm. “Now I know what it feels like when a cupcake whispers at you. I didn’t know cupcakes could whisper like that to my taste buds. It’s telling them how amazing these are!”

“I’m not going anywhere, I can’t. Not again. Leaving you… not coming back to you the first time—it broke me. How could I ever think that was best for you, for us? All I did was hurt us both. I’ll carry the guilt. I won’t lie about that. What happened to Charlie, to you, it’s always going to weigh on me. But you’re right. I need you, Cupcake. I can’t help feeling guilty, but I’d rather feel it right here with you, so you can slap me silly when I need it.” “How about this? How about I kiss you silly instead of striking you? You think that would help you feel better?” “I think I can handle that. Although the force of your kisses is so powerful, my heart feels like it will explode.” “Oh, well, we can’t have that now, can we?” “The heck we can’t!”
