his new life, she’d stop worrying.
“Will you teach me?” Jackson asked Sam.
The other man nodded. “Yes, though first I need to tell you a few things that might be important.”
As Jackson listened, his stomach bottomed out.
Hell, that changed things.
Chapter 8
The dream started the same as the first one. Honor stood in the field, her hands fisted at her side as Jackson strode toward her.
“Are you really here?” Jackson asked.
“Yes, it’s me. You seemed to have dream walked again.”
He smiled at her then cupped her face with his hands. “I’m glad. Does it hurt when I do this? Not touching you, but dream walking with you?”
She smiled. “No, Jackson. It doesn’t hurt at all. Though I will say that you should be careful as to who you dream walk with.”
Jackson nodded. “I think I’ve only done it with you, so that must be something, right?”
She reached up and kissed his chin. “That’s something alright.”
“Should we wake up now?” he asked, looking as if he’d rather stay asleep with her.
“Probably, we have a big day.”
Jackson just laughed. “Don’t stress. I promise they’ll be gentle.”
Honor rolled her eyes. “Sure, if you say so. See you soon, Jacks.”
“See you soon, my Honor.”
She woke up alone in bed, but not in her heart. Hell, it was getting harder and harder to keep herself away from him.
But did she really want to?
“Are you sure I look okay?” Honor asked as she ran her hands down her sundress one more time. She’d chosen the white sundress with a knitted white shrug to go over her shoulders. She’d also worn her cute gladiator sandals. They didn’t have a heel and made her the perfect height to fit under Jackson’s shoulder.
Not that she’d ever adjust her wardrobe to get closer Jackson.
It might have been a factor somewhere in her mind but definitely not the main one.
“You look beautiful, Honor. Stop worrying,” Jackson said as he set out olives, cheese, and other snack foods.
She blushed at his words and quit messing with her dress. There was really nothing she could do. She’d already met the women, and she thought they liked her. Now it was just his brothers.
And their children.
They’d like her, or they wouldn’t.
“I thought you said Justin and Abigail were going to cook when they got here.”
Jackson grinned at her then took her lips in a soft kiss. She leaned into him before he pulled back. Since they’d discussed their relationship, he was always touching her, kissing her as if he were afraid she’d up and leave again. She wasn’t planning on it, but she liked the attention anyway. It didn’t hurt that she liked making sure he was still there as well.
“I’ll let Justin and Abigail do the cooking today because they asked to and because they like it. As for why I have snacks out, that should be obvious. I have four pregnant women about to invade my home. I’m prepared.”
She closed her eyes and held back a laugh. “You sound as though you’re preparing for war.”
Jackson’s eyes crinkled at the corners with amusement. “Did I not tell you the peanut butter incident?”
Unable to hold back her laughter anymore, she chuckled. “Yes, though I don’t know why it’s such a big deal.”
Jackson narrowed his eyes then gripped her hips. “The big deal is I’m about to have four pregnant women who could want any random thing, and somehow, I’ll end up being the one to go out and buy it even though I’m not married to any of them.”
“You were at the store, Jacks, though they didn’t know it at first according to Jordan. I had thought you were just getting off work. It only made sense that they’d ask you to pick up something for them. You’re family. I know when I get pregnant, and if Tucker is around, I’m going to bother my brother to no end.” She closed her mouth quickly, afraid to see Jackson’s reaction to her words. She shouldn’t have mentioned being pregnant around him considering that
