“I’ll go make coffee for everyone.” I tilt my head back, offering my mouth. Jameson takes it. “I hope this doesn't take too long.” This time I squeeze his ass before letting him go to head inside. I don’t have to look back to know Jameson is watching me go. I never plan on looking back after today, only forward to my life with Jameson.

“Why are you still here?” I lean up against my kitchen counter, taking a long sip of my coffee. My eyes eat up Bunny as she sits talking to PJ. They disappeared for a while to the bedroom and now they are snacking on the food I made for them while I waited for them to come out of the bedroom. I had to do something to keep busy. None of that explains why Davis is still here. But if I had to guess it has something to do with PJ.
“I was hungry.” He takes a bite of one of the grilled cheese sandwiches. He’s hungry all right. His eyes haven’t left PJ since she came rolling out of that SUV and broke Michael’s nose. It is all very interesting to watch. Davis never shows interest in anything. I can sympathize with the man. I’m guessing I looked the same way after laying eyes on Bunny. While he’s here, I might as well pry some information from him.
“Are you going to handle Michael?”
“His family won’t try to save him again. They’re scared of you.”
They should be. I could crumble their lives with a few calls and keystrokes. They should already know that with money a person can do almost anything. They’re used to having things go their way by throwing money at their problems. They hadn’t anticipated someone else having more money and reach than they do. Oil is liquid gold around not only these parts but the world.
“PJ can stay here. Can’t she, Jay?” Bunny hops up from her chair.
“I can’t stay here.” PJ doesn't look over at me when she says it but to Davis.
“She can,” Davis answers for me.
“These two are going to be going at it like bunnies. I don’t need to see that.” PJ motions between Bunny and me.
“How long have you been holding on to that joke?” Bunny smacks her arm. PJ cracks a smile. Bunny’s eyes remain on me. She doesn't have to say it but I know she doesn't want PJ to leave. PJ is the only family she has besides that piece of shit father of hers. I can also tell PJ doesn't want to feel like a bother.
“I’ve got a few cabins here. There is plenty of room,” I offer.
“He does!” Bunny hops up and down with excitement. I can't stop myself from enjoying the view of her tits bouncing. Davis is lucky his eyes are still locked on PJ.
“I don’t know.” PJ lets out a long sigh. Bunny’s eyes are big and pleading with me to fix this.
“But you have to be close. You’re my bodyguard.”
“I don’t think you’ll need me anymore.” She lifts one of her shoulders in a shrug.
“I’m not always around and I could use a little help too. The security on the ranch could be tighter.” Everything I said is the truth. I’m not always around. That said, wherever I’m going I’m taking Bunny with me. PJ doesn't need to know all that. This is about me convincing her to stay by giving her a reason to do it.
“See?”
“I can stay for now.” She finally gives in. Bunny wraps her in a tight hold.
“I can’t believe you were trying to leave me. You done lost your mind?” Bunny kisses her on the cheek.
“I’m sure Davis can show you to one of the cabins,” I offer. Surprisingly, PJ begins to blush. She reaches up, smoothing down her blond ponytail. Davis grunts from beside me in agreement.
“I’ll still have to run to get Bunny’s and my stuff from the hotel.” She looks anywhere but at Davis now. I have no idea what is going on between these two. They’d make an odd pair if you ask me but what do I really know?
“What if she leaves and tries to not come back?” Bunny nudges her.
“Then I’ll go get her,” Davis drawls, standing up a little straighter as though he might need to pounce on her.
“I don’t need someone to come and get me,” she snips at him. “I’ll be back soon.” She hugs Bunny again before heading out of the house. Thankfully, Davis follows after her. Bunny strolls over and wraps her arms around me. I grip her ass, lifting her off her feet. Finally we’re alone.
“They have a thing going on or something?” she asks me.
“I have no clue what’s happening there. I didn't know Davis was into people, period.” Bunny’s whole body shakes with laughter. After everything that’s happened she doesn't seem fazed in the least.
“Sorry I kind of invited someone to stay here for a while.”
“You can do whatever you want, Bunny. It's your place too.”
She tilts her head, her face lighting up with a smile. “You didn't ask me to move in.”
“Not really asking.”
“You know you’re bossy sometimes. I didn't know someone could be this bossy and this sweet.”
“I taught him well.” Mom comes strolling right into the kitchen. “God knows he didn't get his sweetness from that dead husband of mine.” She never calls him my father.
“You taught him good.” Bunny tries to kiss me on the cheek, but I turn my head and steal a real kiss. “Your mom,” she hisses at me. She wiggles her ass for me to put her down.
“She doesn't care.” If anything it makes my mom more over the moon.
“I don’t,” she agrees as she drops a bunch of bags. “Did you catch that guy yet?”
“A few hours ago. Sure the news will get wind of it soon.” I was hoping to have Bunny alone for a while. I should have known Mom would pop up anytime. I was surprised she didn't last night but I think her plan was to give us as much alone time as possible. I bet it took everything in her to stay away this long.
“I knew it wouldn’t take you long.” I walk over, setting Bunny on the kitchen counter. “I brought you some stuff to hold you over until you move in,” Mom tells Bunny.
“You didn't have to do all that.” Bunny drops her arms from around me, turning some to face my mom. “How did you know I was moving in? I just found out.”
“I know my son. When he sets his mind to something, there is no stopping him.”
“Wonder where I got that from,” I say dryly.
“Me of course.” Mom starts pulling stuff out of the bags. “Next on the list are grandbabies.”
“Mom,” I cut her off. “I’m already working on it.” Bunny gasps, burying her face in my chest. “But you’re interrupting us.”
“Right. I’ll leave these things here and I’ll start working on wedding plans. The two of you have more important things to get done.”
“Rebecca.” Bunny jerks back to look at her. “You’re all crazy.”
“You love it,” Mom tells her as she comes over and kisses Bunny on both her cheeks. “I’m gonna be the Mama you never had.” She gives her one last kiss on the nose before she turns to leave me with a teary-eyed Bunny. I may not have had a good dad but my mom made up for it. She had given me so much love. She’s the reason why I know how to love Bunny with everything I have.
