his voice gruff. He leans down and scoops me into his arms.
    He turns and heads back up the path, his strides quick.
    “You’re fucking freezing,” he growls. “Silly girl.”
    “M...M...M...Muff?”
    “Baby, don’t even ask. I’ll only tell you you’re wrong.”
    “You d...d...d...don’t even know w...w...w...what I was g...g...g...going to ask.”
    “You’re going to ask if I care about Serenity.”
    Shit.
    “And I’ll tell you, I don’t. I told you that last night. I know why you ran. You were hurtin’ seeing her on my lap, you were wondering if I maybe have feelings for her, or maybe I want to continue in a ménage relationship...”
    “I...”
    “I don’t. Do you hear me? I care about Serenity. Spending the night with her and Jackson, it was hot, but that’s all it was. It was just a fun moment. It was just a night of passion. I don’t want her. I don’t wish I was the one who got her, nor do I wish to be in a relationship with them. I want you, Jaybird. More than I’ve ever wanted someone in my life. I was insensitive of that inside before, I shouldn’t have let her behave that way, harmless or not.”
    My heart melts.
    “I’m s...s...s...s...sorry.”
    “Don’t be,” he murmurs. “I know how it must have looked, and I’m sorry. I forget that you know what happened between us, and I forget that her behaving like that might look bad. But it’s just friendship, I swear it to you. I wouldn’t lie...not to you, angel.”
    He gets back to our cabin and walks right to the room, flicking on the fire. Dropping to the bed, he strips me out of my clothes, and then quickly discards his own. Then he pulls back the covers and tucks me under them. My teeth are still clattering together, and when his warm body presses against mine he hisses, but he doesn’t let go. He wraps me in his arms, and he holds me.
    He just holds me.
    And I know he’s letting me know...that this is far more than we both expected it would be.
    I think I’m in love with Muff.

    “O h God that was good,” I groan, rubbing my belly after finishing plate two of bacon and eggs.
    “Damn, I can cook.” Spike grins.
    “Knew you had to be good at something,” Ciara says, jabbing his side.
    “So, what’s on the agenda today?” Serenity asks, tucking herself onto Jackson’s lap.
    “I don’t know,” Cade mutters. “Addison is still in the fuckin’ bathroom. When she gets out, we’ll figure it out.”
    “Maybe we can go hiking?” Jackson suggests, and we all give him a horrified expression.
    “Or not,” he mutters.
    Muff comes into the room, coffee in hand. He winks at me, and I flush. We seem closer after our moment earlier, and I’m enjoying it. He does things to me. Things I’ve never experienced before.
    “There’s a real pretty view from a mountain we can drive to,” he suggests.
    “That’s a good idea,” I say.
    “Yeah, sure is,” Cade says.
    Addison appears in the room then, and I notice right away her face is pale and that she doesn’t have her usual bounce.
    Without turning, Cade says, “Addi, we’re going to the mountain. You cool with that?”
    She doesn’t answer. I get to my feet. “Addi, honey, are you okay?”
    Everyone is watching her now, and Ciara is on her feet beside me. Cade turns, and his eyes fall on Addison. His face becomes concerned.
    “Sugar?” he says gently.
    “I’m...” Addison rasps, letting a tear tumble down her cheek. “I’m bleeding. It’s bad.”
    My heart falls. Cade leaps out of his chair and rushes over to her, wrapping his arms around her and crushing her to him. “Sugar, shhh.”
    “What do we do?” Jackson says, standing.
    “Get her to the hospital,” Ciara says in a weak voice.
    Addison is crying heavily when she pulls back from Cade.
    “I don’t want to lose our baby, Cade.”
    My heart breaks when I see the expression on Cade’s face—and then, even more when I look at Addison’s.
    “We’re going to be just fine baby, just
