watched and wondered if Kat considered the possibility that Lane would want to harm her.
Chapter 1
Seventeen months later…
Lane turned away from the window and laughed softly as he watched Aiden pace nervously in the living room. You’d think we were about to be attacked by vikings or barbarians, he thought as he reached for Aiden and pulled him against his chest. He kneaded the muscles of his neck, trying to ease some of the tension as he kissed his hair.
“It’s not going to be that bad,” he promised and he heard Aiden snort as his body became more tense.
“We’re going to have a tiny barbarian in our home, Lane. That’s really bad,” he grumbled and Lane couldn’t stifle the laugh and his body shook as he tried to soothe Aiden with his hands.
“He’s only seven months old. He’s just crawling and as long as he’s in his chair, play yard or we’re holding him, we don’t have to worry about him getting into trouble. Henry won’t be loose in our house at any time, I swear,” Lane said and Aiden didn’t feel any less taut as he nodded. “It’s just overnight. We agreed that it would be good for Kat to have a night off. If you can call closing on her new apartment and going to an interview in the morning a night off,” he said and Aiden sighed heavily.
“Are you certain it was wise of us to encourage her to move to Chicago? We’re only going to be an hour away. We’ll end up babysitting more often,” he complained and Lane rolled his eyes.
“An hour away isn’t very convenient. She’ll have to find a regular sitter or a nanny,” he said and Aiden relaxed.
“That makes sense. So, we just have to get through the rest of the day and tomorrow morning. She’ll take him back before lunch,” Aiden confirmed and Lane nodded as he leaned back and found Aiden’s eyes.
“Exactly. Just survive the less than twenty-four hours Henry will be here and everything will be back to normal,” Lane said and Aiden looked at the clock.
“Ok. But if it’s too much, I’m going to Chief and Sandra’s,” he warned and Lane shook his head. Even though he retired a year earlier, everyone still called him Chief. Aiden adopted Chief and Sandra and their home was one of the few places aside from theirs’ that he was comfortable.
“You have to stick it out with me,” Lane said and Aiden groaned. “And you’d miss me tonight,” he added as he slid his lips up Aiden’s throat. He licked his earlobe and Aiden’s body became warm and pliant in Lane’s arms. “I was planning on being very grateful tonight,” he breathed in Aiden’s ear and he shivered as Lane’s hands worked at the fly of Aiden’s jeans.
“Can we do that with a baby in the house?” He asked and Lane chuckled as he backed Aiden to the sofa.
“He has to sleep sometime,” he purred as he pushed Aiden’s jeans down his thighs. Aiden nodded faintly and Lane knew that his mind was distancing itself from all thoughts of Henry and the terror to come.
“That’s good,” he mumbled as he nibbled on Lane’s lip. “Do we have enough time for this?” Aiden asked and Lane grinned as he pushed on Aiden’s chest and caused him to fall and sprawl on his back on the sofa.
“We’ll make time. If she shows up before we’re done, she can wait,” Lane said as he put his knee on the sofa between Aiden’s legs. He gave Aiden’s boxer briefs a quick tug and his cock was hard and twitching as Lane wrapped his hand around it. He lowered his shoulders and sighed happily as he breathed in the smell of Aiden’s body. His lips brushed over Aiden’s sack and skimmed up the length of his erection and Lane felt his jaw twinge as his mouth watered. He didn’t know what it was about Aiden but he’d never get enough. After five years, Lane still craved the taste of his skin and the feel of their bodies locked together. Somehow, he got to come home to the most amazing man in the world and as long as his phone’s camera wasn’t on,
