Undone (Wild Men 2) - Page 48

“Turn the car around,” I whisper, my voice hoarse. I wipe at my cheeks, smiling when Kaden smiles back, as if he can see me. “Take me back, please.”

Without a word, the driver does as I ask him to, doing a totally illegal U-turn and diving back into the traffic.

This is it. I can’t expect any more miracles.

Now it’s really up to me to get my man and find my happily ever after.

I see him when the Uber stops. He’s sitting on the steps of his building and looking at him, I forget how to breathe.

He has his hands in his hair, his face turned away. His shoulders are slumped. He looks crushed.

And my throat closes up thinking I did that to him.

I climb out of the car so fast my purse snags on the door handle, and then the driver yells that I need to get my suitcase, too.

Crap.

I turn back, haul my small suitcase out of the back seat, slam the door shut and start toward Kaden.

He doesn’t notice me until I’m standing right in front of him.

And then his face does a funny shift from dejected to surprised to happy, a light brightening his jade-green eyes. He doesn’t try to get up, and I can’t imagine what it cost him to climb down those stairs like he obviously did.

He did come after me.

But the guilt is lost in a wave of joy when he pulls me down and cradles me in his lap, right there, on the sidewalk, with everyone watching.

Well, I guess they are. I don’t give a damn, because all that matters is the man crushing me to his chest.

The man I love. The only one for me.

“I’m sorry,” I whisper. “For everything. Sorry I was so paranoid I thought you cheated on me, sorry I walked out again—”

His mouth covers mine, stopping my apology. Then he pulls back, and his eyes are serious. “All that matters, baby, is that you came back.”

UNFORGETTABLE

Chapter Nineteen

Kaden

She’s in my arms and fuck it, I’m not letting her go ever again.

Which proves a bit of a problem when I try to get up from the fucking cold steps I’m sitting in, with Hailey clutched tightly to my chest, while my legs refuse to hold us.

My knees buckle the moment I try to stand up, the world starts spinning, and damn, this is embarrassing.

Only Hailey takes the sting off when she strokes my face and kisses me again.

Oh yeah, I can get on board with that. No problem. I close my eyes, and the world steadies. Her weight on my legs anchors me. Her lips warm me up.

When we finally break apart, we’re both panting and my hard dick is getting a good, deep impr

int of my zipper up its length.

“Apartment,” I manage. “Now.”
