“I’ll get you a key made so next time, you can put her to bed at my place, and then you can be waiting in my bed with your hot, wet self for me to get home and fuck you senseless.” He nipped my earlobe as his hands tightened on my waist. “But for tonight, we can Facetime if you want. Will you show me your tits?”

“I’ll show you anything you want to see,” I said with a seductive smile that had him going in for another kiss, which was broken up by our daughter’s little voice.

“Daddy, get me!” she squealed, and Ax turned around to reach up and take her from Bode’s arms.

“Did you have fun, sweet pea?” he asked, holding her on his hip and giving her a kiss.

She hugged his neck and said, “Yes! You did so good, Daddy. You were the best!” She ran a chubby finger through the sweat on his forehead and said, “But you’re kinda sweaty and stinky.”

Axel laughed, but I scolded, “Carrie! That’s not very nice.”

Her little face turned solemn when she said, “But I still love you when you’re stinky.”

“That’s good, baby girl, because I love you, too. Hey, why don’t you go help those kids pick up the balls from the sidelines so I can talk to your mom for a minute.” Axel set her down, and she ran a few yards away to help collect the practice balls.

I took a deep breath, running my hands up and down my man’s thick arms. “Ax, I’m sorry, but your parents and Oliver were here. They saw Carrie and figured it out. Well, I mean, Ollie already knew.”

His eyes tightened into slits, a tiny muscle twitching in his jaw. “What did my dad say?”

“Well, he wasn’t really happy, and he and Beau, um, had words.” To say the least.

Axel stared over at where Carrie was throwing a ball back and forth with a young boy. “So, if he and Beau got into it, I’m assuming my father said something to you?” His eyes came back to mine, searching.

I really didn’t want to get in the middle of drama with his family, so I tried to deflect. “Your mom and Oliver seemed really excited. It was nice to see them both.”

“What did he say to you, Blaire?” he asked heatedly.

“Ax, it doesn’t matter. My brother handled it, but I just wanted to let you know in case your dad mentioned it to you. Beau was a little… Beau.” He raised his eyebrows, and I sighed, “He threatened to rip out your father’s tongue and stick it up his ass.”
