Well, you’re all mine now, Blake. We can handle anything; we will or won’t be charity cases together. I don’t think he’s offering to diaper you and buy you a wagon. Maybe just a cup of coffee?” She touched his hair.
He softened. “Together makes this easier to swallow. I guess there’s no harm in talking to the man.
Your future will be full of smiles. I promise.
Debra AnastasiaAt his slow smile, she gathered him into a gentle hug again. Will I ever be able to stop touching him?
Debra AnastasiaBrave Livia, you never cease to amaze me.” He lifted her chin with his finger. “I’ve never been more thankful to be alive than right now.”
After soft kisses, they pressed their hands together palm to palm. The tingling scattered all over Livia’s body, warming her.
The kiss led to embarrassing moaning, and they pulled away, laughing at the need between them.
“Being with you might just kill me right now.” Blake held her hands and took slow measured breaths.
“I’ll wait until you can pant properly.” Livia looked at him from under her lashes.
“Oh crap. That’s not helping.” Blake pretended to do CPR on his own chest.
Your future will be full of smiles. I promise.”
He looked surprised by the vehemence in her voice. “My past was worth it,” he said evenly. “All the trials brought me to this: you holding my hand.” He trailed his fingers up her arm to her shoulder and finally around the nape of her neck. “Kiss me.”
Livia leaned into his full lips, relishing the taste that was Blake. The little slice of Ted’s past slipped from between them and landed on the floor. The kiss led to embarrassing moaning, and they pulled away, laughing at the need between them.
Uncle or not, he did save your life,” Livia pointed out.
Blake bit his bottom lip and shook his head. Livia felt a wintry shiver as he licked his lips.
“You saved my life, Livia. Only you.
So, seeing as you know all the details already, can I count on you to be best man?” Cole watched fear creep over Blake’s face. “The ceremony is at night,” he added quickly.
“If Mr. Old Timey is still all jacked up from being a bullet catcher, we’ll put it off,” Kyle added.
Blake smiled and held his arms open to the female ball of fire. “I’ll be fine, Kyle. I wouldn’t want you to spend one extra day not married to Cole because of me.”
Kyle hugged him carefully. “Your being well is one of the only things that could ever make me wait.”
Blake answered Cole’s question still hanging in the air. “I’d be honored to serve as your best man.
He grabbed his brothers. All three pounded each others’ backs and gave grumbling, cursing acknowledgments.
“I can finally fucking breathe, seeing you goddamn bastards.
I’d prefer to stand when ladies are standing,” he said quietly to Livia.
She longed to smooth a balm on all his wounds. “Blake, I’m exhausted. What I really need is a nice, strong lap to sit on to get me out to the car.”
He reached up and stroked her hair. “I could be a lap for you, my tired angel.
