“We both agreed not to see other people while we do this.”
“Does he usually lie to get girls in bed?”
Logan could be persuasive, but I didn't think he made up big lies to get them into bed usually. I wasn’t always there when he was trying to get laid though.
“I don’t think so. Girls throw themselves at him because he’s good in bed, he wouldn’t need to lie. He doesn’t do the exclusive thing either, which makes me think he’s being honest,” I answered.
“How long have you known him?”
“He’s always lived in the Heights, so a long time. I really like him.”
“I’m sensing a but,” she stated, tilting her head.
“But Reid tried to kiss me last night, and Zavier makes me want to climb him like a tree all the time.”
“What about Logan?”
I mentally cursed myself, shrugging. “He’s really hot and I kind of want to sit on his face.”
She cracked up laughing, having zero sympathy for me. “Girl, you went from being a virgin to a sex maniac. Maybe your new man would be open to sharing?”
“He’s not. He gets jealous when someone comes near me.”
“Oh, possessive alpha vibes. That doesn’t really sound like just friends with benefits,” she grinned, absently toying with her knife. “Maybe see if he’d be into toys in the bedroom? Get a dildo so you can have the experience. Trust me, it feels good.”
The baby started fussing and Beckett explained how to hold her so I could burp her, and after a good burp and a cuddle, she was asleep.
Beckett’s phone rang, and she quickly told me where the baby’s room was before wandering off, leaving me to wander through the insanely big mansion to find the nursery.
I carefully placed the baby in the crib, stepping back to watch her sleep for a second. These kids were so lucky to have someone offering help. I couldn’t get my own parents to give a fuck about me, but the Donovans were strangers to these kids and still offered them everything they had.
Poppy appeared in the doorway, giving me a soft smile. “Thank you.”
“I don’t mind. She’s adorable,” I replied as I slipped from the room to avoid waking the baby.
Poppy followed me back down to the kitchen, where Beckett was helping Lukas get the kids out the door and into what appeared to be a small bus, then Beckett wandered back into the kitchen to help me fill bags with containers of food from the fridge.
“Okay, so Luke said the three casseroles were made yesterday and to freeze what you won’t eat in the next couple of days. The chicken and veggies were done this morning, so maybe eat that for dinner tonight. There’s a tub of pumpkin soup that’s already frozen, and Mom bought some meat for you guys too. There’s also a bag of vegetables in the cupboard for you so Lopez can make soup.”
“Beckett, that’s too much,” I said weakly as she started pulling packs of meat out of the fridge and into a large bag, but she waved it off.
“She’s hoping it stops you guys from having to steal shit for a couple of weeks. I think there’s some bread and stuff too.”
My pride made me want to decline all of it as we loaded it into the car, the trunk and back seat full of bags that would feed us for weeks, as well as the guys favorite beer and cigarettes, which were completely unnecessary.
I bit my tongue until it was all in the car, blowing out a breath before turning to face Beckett. “Thank you. I hate this, but I appreciate it.”
“We don’t mind helping those who don’t expect us to. You deserve the help, and we know how much of a difference it can make,” she smiled, wagging her finger at me. “Make sure to eat all those veggies so you don’t pass out from all the hot sex you’re having.”
“Shut up,” I laughed, climbing behind the wheel. “Thanks for letting me be a girl. I don’t really have anyone I can talk to other than the guys, and sex isn’t something they’d let me talk about without murdering someone.”
“I don’t mind being your girl bestie, but if you show up crying about a broken heart, I’m not dealing with it. I encourage mayhem, pissing off guys, and breaking the law. Don’t come to me for comfort unless it’s to help you gut someone who wrongs you,” she said seriously, growling as her phone rang. “Jesus, everyone fucking needs me all of a sudden. I’ll see you later.”
She stalked inside, already biting someone’s head off on the phone, and I drove off in the direction of the Heights, not wanting the food to go bad by sitting in the car for too long.
