After the Fall (The Fallen Men 4)

When my hand skirted up her sweater over her stomach, she stopped me, pressing my palm flat to the slight curve.

I watched as her eyes filled with tears again, and she whispered, “Was going to name him King if you were really gone, but now, we’re back to Prince.”

Happiness like nothin’ I’d never known carbonated my blood and kicked like adrenaline through my heart.

“It’s not the same as being at home,” she admitted with a warbled smile, “but I brought some family with me.”

I kissed her before the last word was even fully formed, eating it off her tongue, holdin’ her so tight she could feel my bones through my skin, the race of my heart against her breasts, the relief and sadness and euphoria moving through me.

“Love you more than my life,” I said against her mouth.

“Yeah, honey, I think you proved that.”

And then, like I hadn’t done in months, like I hadn’t done since I’d last seen her glorious fuckin’ face, I threw my head back and laughed.

And Cress?

She did it with me.
