Erin gives me a hug and holds on tight. “I’m so happy you’re back home, Lexi. I know we don’t really know each other, but I’ve been looking forward to this day for so long. I’ve always wanted a sister.”
“Me too.”
“If you want to see Dameon, you better get going now before Walker comes back. A little birdy told me he’s working out.”
I guess it’s true. Dameon is always working out. I don’t mind. It gave him that rock hard body. “Thanks, Erin.”
After a quick shower and even quicker makeup job, I head to the station wearing workout clothes. I sneak inside, happy to find the garage empty. Music faintly echoes from upstairs, and I smile. I just hope he’s alone.
I peek through the slit in the black paper and see him in there without his shirt. He’s squatting with a bar on his shoulder, and there’s more plates on the bar than I can count. I slip inside, and lean on the door once it’s closed behind me.
He smiles before racking the squat bar and making his way to me. I’m pressed up against the door as he kisses me hard. My hands slide around him to his ass. Fuck, it’s a nice, hard ass. I pull him against me. “Take me, Dameon.”
“Here?”
“Yes.” I flip the lock behind my back. “Here.”
I let Dameon take the reins, because this is his domain. “Come over here, by the squat rack.” He moves the bar down to a lower level. When he turns to me, there’s hesitation in his eyes.
“I’ll do whatever you tell me to, but first we’re covering that hole.”
Dameon finds a pad of sticky notes and plasters half a dozen over the small hole. “Better?”
“Yes.”
He walks back to the squat rack. “Now, bend over and hold onto the bar,” he says.
I do what he says, and stick my ass up in the air toward him. I’m drenched between my legs at the thought of what he might do to me in here. His domain. I feel his hot fingers rub up and down my ass before he pulls my leggings down. A hand reaches around my waist and finds my clit.
“It was the hottest fucking thing I’ve ever seen, watching you touch yourself Lexi. So fucking hot.”
His finger rubs against my swollen nub. Fuck, I could come just like this. “Don’t stop,” I pant. His hard length is pressed up against my exposed ass as he strokes my clit harder and harder. I want him inside me, but I don’t want him to stop.
“Come for me, Lexi.” The blaring music drowns out my moans, so I don’t hold back. I let his hand take me over the edge. “Good girl.”
I’m still catching my breath when he frees his cock from his gym shorts and slides it along my wet folds. My clit is so sensitive I can hardly stand it. But it’s so damn hot feeling his dick slide through my wetness.
“Hold on tight, babe. It’s going to be a wild ride.”
I grip the bar tight seconds before he enters me. His hands hold my hips in place as he fills me, over and over. Hard and fast, just like I like it. He slams into me, again and again. I’m getting dizzy, seeing stars as I reach the edge. “I’m coming, Dameon. Fuck me, I’m coming.”
I’m still shaky when he pulls out from inside me. “I’m done not with you yet, Lex.”
DAMEON
It’s so fucking hard not to blow my load inside her this time, but I hold back. Because I have other plans for her. I’m so glad she stopped by.
No one uses this upstairs gym but me. It’s my personal zone, and they all workout downstairs where there’s newer equipment and more space. And since it’s my day off, I’m in no rush to be done with this woman yet.
“Catch your breath. We’re moving onto round three.”
There’s a mixture of thrill and panic in her eyes. “Three?”
“Have you never had three orgasms at once before?”
She shakes her head no.
“I’m going to fix that right now, babe.” I adjust the incline bench to just the right angle, then sit down and lean back to make sure it’s at the right height. I’ve had fantasies about fucking at the gym, but I’ve never gotten to experience them before. Lexi Stone is my fucking dream girl.
“What do you want me to do?” she asks.
“Walk toward me.”
She stops at my knees, but I cup my hands on her ass and urge her to keep moving.
“I need to eat your pussy,” I growl seconds before her cunt is hovering an inch above my mouth. I fucking love the gym. I lick her wet folds, taking my time stroking her. I slip one finger inside her pussy as my tongue flickers over her swollen nub. She’s jumpy from the sensitivity, but I use my other hand to hold her against my mouth.
I ravage her pussy like I’ve been eager to do since I saw her playing with herself. I keep going until she shudders above me. “Fuck, Dameon. That was amazing.”
“We’ve got one more round.”
Her eyes grow huge. “It’s really true what they say about you, isn’t it? Your workouts are crazy intense.”
I back her up a few steps and help lower her onto my hard cock. “You have no idea, babe.”
My cock feels at home in that hot, tight pussy. She’s mine. I don’t care what it’ll take to convince Walker I’m worthy. I’ll do it. I fucking love this woman. It makes no sense since I just met her a few days ago, but I know it in the depths of my being. I want her to have my babies. She’s my life now.
Our hips rocks against each other. The sight of her tits bouncing with our motion is taking me over the edge. “I’m going to come, babe. Come with me.” I guide her with my hands on her hips—their new favorite home—and keep the pace going until she cries out my name. Then I let myself go, claiming this woman once again.
“I love you, Lex.” She doesn’t hear me over the loud music, but that’s okay. I’ll be saying those words to her for the rest of our life.

LEXI
I don’t know how I’m going to walk down the spiral staircase after that workout. Four orgasms. Four. And not just in one day, but in the same hour. I think I might be in love with this man.
He cuts the music and hands me my clothes and a towel. I wore workout clothes on purpose. Maybe Walker wouldn’t approve of me working out with Dameon, but at least it looks better than the truth should we be caught. I think. Fuck, I don’t know. I can feel how flushed my cheeks are, and if I was glowing enough for Erin to notice last night, there’s no way I’m not lit up like the sun right now.
“I’m telling your brother about us.”
“What?” Panic surges through me. “No, not yet.”
Dameon pins me with the most serious look I’ve seen from him yet. “Why not?”
“I—I haven’t even figured out what I’m going to do with my stupid degree. He’s not ready to hear I violated the one rule he gave me.” The orgasm buzz is wearing off and reality is crashing back. “Please, just give me a couple more days. I promise to talk to him.”
“Fine,” he says. “But you’re coming to lunch with me.”
“Okay.”
We slip out of the station in our gym clothes, mostly unnoticed. I recognize a couple of the guys in passing because they were out at the cookout last night. I hope none of them see my brother before he knows the truth about me and Dameon.
Dameon takes us to a restaurant ten minutes away—too far away for any of the firemen on shift to come to for a late lunch. “If you like burgers, they have a killer bacon cheeseburger.”
Food is the last thing on my mind. I’m worn out in the best way, and I just want my bed and a day long nap. Preferably a nap that includes Dameon. But I have to admit it feels so good to be out in public with him. Like I’m not some dirty little secret to hide from the world. I’m his. “Sounds good.”
I let Dameon pick our table, and we end up in a booth near the window. When I slide in, he scoots in beside me. I should object on the off chance we run into someone we know, but I like this too much. This protective side of him that doesn’t want to be apart. It turns me on, and it makes me feel safe and wanted.
&nb
sp; After we order, he turns to me and puts his arm around my shoulders. “So what’s the little dilemma you have with your degree?”
I fiddle with my straw, stirring it in my ice tea. “Walker helped put me through school, you know. He paid for most of it.”
“And he’s proud of you for finishing early.”
“But now that I’m done, I don’t know what’s next. I spent all this time doing homework, studying late into the night to get the best grades, but I never once thought about what I wanted to do with it.”
Dameon kisses my temple. “Babe, you don’t have to have all the answers the second you graduate.”
“But—”
“You have a business degree, right?”
I stare into my lap, feeling frustrated. Maybe getting a degree in business was too easy. Too generic. Why didn’t I pick something more focused? How do I even know that I want to work in the business world? “Yeah.”
“Then see what’s out there. You’re young, babe. You have plenty of time to try different things out. You might not know what you’re calling is until you stumble on it. Walker will understand.”
I look up into his eyes, and I swear I can see my soul reflected back there. Dameon is home. I’ve never been surer of anything in my life. “I love you.” The words fall out before I even have time to realize I’ve thought them. But they’re true, and I refuse to take them back.
“I love you, too.” He cups my face with his hand and draws me in for a deep, intimate kiss. It’s one filled with reassurance, promise, and a future.
“What the hell is going on here?” Walker’s thunderous voice booms down from above the table.
DAMEON
I steel myself with a breath before I sit back, but I don’t remove my arm from around Lexi. I knew there was a chance Walker might stop by his favorite restaurant on his day off. “I was hoping we’d run into you.”
“Wait, wait?” Lexi says.
“What the hell is this?” Walkers asks again through grated teeth. Rage burns in those eyes. I catch a glimpse of Jace in a booth.
“We’re together, Walker.”
If it’s possible, his face is turning a deeper shade of red. “I made it very clear that no one at the station was to lay a finger on her. You deliberately disobeyed me.”
“I love her.” The words come out more confidently than I feel. I’m terrified inside, but I’ve never been one to run from my problems. I face them head on. The longer this went on, the worse Walker was going to take it.
“Don’t be ridiculous.”
“Excuse me?” Lexi joins in.
“It’s too soon, Lex. That’s all—”
“You knew,” Lexi’s voice is rising with her chest. When I try to meet her eyes, she glares at me. She’s pissed at me too. “You knew when you met Erin.”
“That’s different.”
“How?”
“Not here, Lex. C’mon, we’re going home.”
“No.”
That’s my girl. Walker will calm down after he’s had a few days to process everything and realizes I’m serious, but he needed the Band-Aid ripped off now. “I’ll take her home, Walker.”
“No you won’t,” says Lexi. She shoves at me until I finally relent and move out of the booth. “I told you I wanted a couple of days to talk to him. You couldn’t even give me that.” She throws her cloth napkin onto the table just as the confused server delivers our burgers. “Don’t call me.”

LEXI
I don’t go home right away. I know that’s where my brother will go, thinking I took an Uber or something to get there. Instead, I hurry down the block and dive into the nearest cupcake store. If my world has to fall apart, at least I should get a freaking cupcake to help ease the pain.
I pick out a chocolate one with peanut butter frosting, and hide in a booth in the corner.
My phone buzzes, just like I knew it would. Of course, it’s Dameon. Then it’s Walker. I let the two blow up my phone for twenty minutes before I finally consider turning the damn thing off. Can’t they leave a girl alone to deal with her misery?
But before I can successfully power it down, Erin’s name comes across my screen.
Erin: Tell me where you are. I’m coming.
Erin: It’s our secret. I promise.
Lexi: Carrie’s Cupcake Corral
For the first time in my life, it feels so nice to have a girlfriend I can trust. I know Erin won’t tell them where I’m at, just that I’m okay.
“Hey, Lex.” Ten minutes later, Erin drops into the booth, sliding a plate across to me. She’s picked me up another cupcake—this one red velvet—and one for herself. “You okay?”
“Dameon told Walker.”
“I heard.”
“I asked him for a couple of days. He couldn’t even give me that, Erin. What the hell?”
Erin’s hand covers mine across the table. “It was better this way. You have to trust me.”
“I don’t understand.” She’s the one who told me to wait to tell Walker. Now she’s on Dameon’s side?
“I’ve known your brother a long time, sweetie. I also know the guys on his shift, too. Dameon had to be the one to tell him. I know it doesn’t make a lot of sense, considering what I said to you this morning. But it was my way of giving Dameon a chance to step up to the plate.”
“I’m… still trying to process everything.”
“I had to be sure that Dameon really loved you. And he proved it, at the restaurant.”
My thoughts linger on what happened at the restaurant once I left. I doubt Walker punched him. Not with Jace sitting in a booth with a view of the whole thing. Plus, Walker doesn’t make public scenes unless there’s no other option. “Where are they now?”
“At the house.”
“Together?”
“They wrestled around in the backyard for a while, but once I was sure they wouldn’t kill each other, I came here to find you. Are you ready to go home, Lex? To see the man you love?”
DAMEON
My heart nearly stops beating in my chest when I see Lexi walk through that door. Erin is a godsend, truly. She’s the one who tipped me off about Walker and Jace going to the restaurant for a late lunch.
Cautiously, I approach Lexi, and Walker lets me go to her without turning into my shadow. “I’m sorry I didn’t wait like you asked, Lex. But I couldn’t stand the thought of keeping you a secret any more. You belong with me. There’s nothing I know more than that.”
“I know that now.” I reach my hands around his neck and pull him down. I’m going to kiss him in front of everyone, and I don’t care what reaction I get. Dameon is my future, so they better get used to seeing us together.
Taking Dameon’s hand in mine, I know I have to face my brother.
“Walker, I have no idea what I’m going to do now that I’m done with college. Not a single clue.” I wait for him to bubble up with anger or for disappointment to wash over his face, but he just smiles.
“I know. Dameon told me.”
“He did?”
“And Lexi, that’s fine. I’m so proud of you for what you’ve accomplished. You have time to figure out what’s next.” Walker lifts his gaze to Dameon. “I think he’s part of the puzzle.”
I throw my hands around Walker and let him squeeze the air clean out of me. “Thank you, Walker.”
“I don’t know about you, babe,” Erin says to Walker, “but I’m starving. What do you say we grab Jace and get a bite to eat? Leave these two to sort some things out?” Erin winks at me.
I lead Dameon downstairs before they pull out of the driveway. Our clothes are scattered in the hallway, and it’s a wonder we even make it to the bedroom. “I’m ready for my next workout session,” I say to him.
“Going five rounds today, Lex. Buckle up.”
Epilogue
LEXI
I never thought I’d be one to say I love the gym, but fuck, I love the gym. Never mind that my clothes never stay on when I’m the
re.
“I have a surprise for you, Lex.” Dameon wears a wicked smile, his hand hovering on the doorknob to our personal home gym in the basement.
“A new workout?”
“Oh yeah.”
It’s late, and our twin girls are fast asleep in their beds. They’re at the perfect age where they sleep like rocks through the night. I don’t know how long it’ll last, but right now, I’ll take whatever we can get. Because after four years, I still can’t keep my hands off my sexy firefighter husband.
When the door swings open, the pole is the first thing I see. Naughty thoughts of what I could do with that pole to please Dameon fill my mind. I rush to the center of the room. “When did you have this done?”
“I have my ways.” He closes the door behind us.
I’m not wearing a dress that’ll twirl when I spin, but I am wearing a silk chemise that doesn’t leave much to the imagination. I go to the pole and start spinning circles until I feel like I’m flying.
Once I stop spinning, Dameon is there to steady me, just like the first time we met. He backs me up against the pole, sliding his hands along my arms until they’re stretched on top of my head. “Grab the pole. You can slide, but don’t let go. No matter what.”
He drops his shorts to the ground, his massive cock springing free. His hot hands push up the edge of my nightgown as his lips nibble at my neck, making their way down to my hard nipples. He bites down as his cock finds my wet and ready pussy. “We’re going four rounds, babe. You ready?”
“Yes!”
His cock plunges into me, and it’s all I can do to hang on to the pole. Fuck, this feels too erotic and hot. “You’re so fucking hot, Lexi.”
“Harder,” I beg in a gasp.
Dameon heeds my request. Hard and fast is our favorite pace. Four years, and every time is still this fucking hot. The home gym has given us so many options, and I know we’ve just scratched the surface with this pole. I can’t wait for all the rounds to come.
