Desired (Restless Nights) (6 page)

The report of the gun rang out just as I slammed against Kenzi, wrapping my arms around her I twisted to take the brunt of the impact. Looking over I saw that John had the struggling woman pinned.

“You good?” John yelled.

“You okay?” I asked, my hand gently pushing Kenzi’s hair back from her beautiful face, her eyes were wide but she nodded. “Yeah, we’re good,” I told John as I rose from the floor pulling her with me.

John had the zip cuffs cinched on Dana’s wrist tighter then probably necessary. He tugged her into the living room and none to gently and forced her into a chair where he cuffed her ankles to its wooden legs.

John turned to Kenzi with a raised brow. “Seriously?” he questioned her “… why would you let her in?”

Kenzi stared at him her mouth opened as if she were going to speak but no words would come.

“John, cut her some slack,” I warned him.

John shook his head.

“I’m sorry,” she finally blurted. “You said not leave the house, I checked the camera and she was alone. I didn’t… I can’t…
.” her eyes fell on the seething woman, Kenzi’s head shaking as she walked out of the room.

John gestured towards her retreating form. “Go, I called the cops already. I got this.”

I nodded and went after Kenz.

The cops came and took Dana, the woman was setting herself up for an insanity plea she certainly seemed bat shit crazy. All the pieces began to fall into place and both
Kenz and Cam began to recognize the signs which had them both blaming themselves. I sent John home and began packing a bag for Kenz.

She exited the bathroom, confusion and questions showing on her face. “What are you doing?”

“We’re getting out of here.” I told her as I zipped up her luggage.

“Where are we going?” she asked as she sat on the bed next to her bag.

I smiled, picked up her bag in one hand and laced our fingers with the other. “It’s a surprise. You need a real vacation and I have a plan for us.”

She smiled. “Okay.”

****

Six hours later, she was sound asleep in the front seat of my Suburban as I turned down the dirt driveway and smiled as the cabin came into view. The sun was just setting, giving the already red dirt a deeper glow.

“Kenz, wake up, baby,” I said lightly, stroking her bare arm.

She grumbled, but sat up. Her eyes found me before she looked out the window. Her lips lifted. “Perfect,” she said as she threw open the car door.

I followed her as she made her way towards the path leading to the lake.

Once at the waters’ edge, she kicked off her sandals and dipped her toes into the gentle wave.

“I’ve missed this place,” she whispered.

“I’ve missed it too.”

My family cabin with private access to the lake had been one of my favorite places to visit over summer vacation. It was also the place where I first realized I loved my best friends little sister. For four years it was a tradition for us to spend at least a couple
weeks of summer at the lake. After Kenzi and Cam left I couldn’t bring myself to return to the cabin or the lake.

She turned to look at me. “When were you last here?”

I moved closer and pulled her into my arms. “It doesn’t matter now that we’re here and together.”

Kenzi smiled at me. She pulled back and eyed the cove, before pulling her shirt over her head and shimmying out of her pants. Her eyes smoldered as she turned
, and ran into the water. Shucking my clothes I followed as she threw her bra and panties at me. Catching them, I tossed them to the shore and went after her.

Kenzi swam into my arms, wrapping her legs around my waist. With little effort I slid deep inside of her. Her fingers thrust through my hair and her eyes locked on mine.

“I love you, Lucca.”

Her words were husky as she lifted and dropped her hips slowly, the water lapped and splashed around us. My eyes never wandering from her gorgeous jade gaze I told her, “I’ve loved you every day since I first told you, right here in this very lake… I love you, Mackenzie Night, I will never stop lovin’ you.”

Her lips crushed mine in a deep passionate kiss as I made love to her under the setting sun.
