smirk on his mouth. “Come let me take care of you for the rest of the night.”
    She took his hand and snuggled in beside him. “Yeah. I’d like that - a lot.”

     

CHAPTER FOURTEEN
     
    Bethany woke to the smell of coffee. She turned on her side and squinted against the bright light coming through the open glass doors. He stood with his back to her, his blue slacks on and torso bare. She laid there for a few minutes, studying him.
    Beautiful.
    He turned and smiled. “I thought I heard your breathing change a little. You sleep good?”
    “I did.” She moved up to her elbow and let the cover drop from her breasts.
    He set his coffee down and moved to sit on the edge of the bed, pulling her into his arms and pressing his lips to hers in a long kiss. “I made you some coffee. Strong and thick like you like it.”
    “That’s how I like my men. My coffee I’ll take any way it comes.” She smirked as he lifted his eyebrow at her.
    “Your man, not men. You’re officially off the market, Miss Thing.” He leaned down and kissed her again before getting up and walking back to the kitchen. “Go get in the shower and let’s get the day started. There are a few more things to do for the ceremony tonight and it will be here before we know it. I’ll bring you a cup of coffee.”
    “Is it still at sundown tonight?” Bethany moved to the edge of the bed, running her nails through her hair and yawning.
    “Yes. Matt and Erica went for a game of golf this morning. They asked us to join them, but I told them you didn’t respond before ten.” He chuckled and handed the coffee mug to her. His eyes moved down her, his bottom lip tucking into his mouth. “You need to get dressed or I’m going to force you to stay in the bed all day. So fucking fine.”
    She took the coffee and tried not to jerk it as he brushed his finger by her nipple. “I’m going. Two nights of sex isn’t enough for you? Insatiable.”
    “It’s not even close. Sorry, baby.” He moved back toward the window. “We’ll grab something to eat and find mom and dad when you’re done.”
    It sounded so odd to hear him refer to Kent and her mother like that, but it was fitting. She was past the part of him soon becoming her stepbrother. He wasn’t blood and if their parents accepted it, then nothing else mattered.
    Bethany enjoyed a long shower, her body sore in all of the places it should be. She ran her fingers over her back and down the curve of her ass, testing her entrance to make sure she was okay. Damon had been careful with her, but they hadn’t gotten very far in their desire to try anal sex. He was huge and she wasn’t used to the incredible pressure of having something press into her. They would try again and again and again until he fit inside of her. She groaned at the thought, her center tightening as she let out a shaky breath.
    He was going to be the death of her, but oh, what a way to go.
     
    Bethany left Damon with Erica and Matt as she slipped off to talk to her mom for a few minutes. She was greeted at the door by her Aunt Patty. After a quick hug she slipped into the room and walked to the bathroom, glancing back to her aunt.
    “How is she?”
    “I’m a fucking wreck,” her mother yelled from the bathroom.
    Bethany’s eyes widened as she knocked on the door. Her mother never said the ‘f-word’. “Mom. Let me in.”
    “Fine, but my hair’s a mess and this make-up makes me look like a hooker.” A long cry left her mother as the door flung open.
    Her mother hadn’t been a hot mess in years, not since her younger days when every day started and ended with bad news. Bethany slipped into the bathroom and closed the door, moving in front of her mom and taking her shoulders.
    “Hey. Look at me.”
    Her make-up was smeared, her eyes red and puffy from crying. She glanced up at Bethany as a few more tears rolled down her pretty face.
    “This isn’t about who you think you should be. Remember our talk earlier? Kent is
