Kindle Notes & Highlights
Lucy was five ten, gorgeous, and played for the Fremont volleyball team.
Hehe
I hoped to find Lucy leaving the girls’ locker room because all I could think about was getting another hug. I needed one real bad.
He sat up with a start, taking my arm with him as he pulled out of our impromptu cuddle fest.
He had already taken to making breakfast every day since he moved in, but never had he made something like this before. I moaned out loud. “Good, huh?” He asked, and I glanced over to see his cheeks go a bit pink. “Perfect.”
Bi disaster incoming
“What about you?” She sniffed delicately. “I don’t think I’m cut out to be anyone’s mate,” she said. “I have neither time nor inclination for such nonsense.”
*sniff sniff* ace rep?
The scent was so thick and strong in the air it was like I could taste him, and before I could get a grip, I realized I was legitimately panting, drawing more of Cas into my lungs.
pAnTiNg
Cas took a step toward me, and I took a step back. If he got any closer, I didn’t know what I would do—lick his neck, probably. Good grief.
Good grief indeed
I grabbed my pillow, pressed it into my face, and screamed. After that, I felt a bit better. After skinning down my jeans and masturbating furiously, I felt a lot better.
However, several tense minutes later, I was uncomfortable and rather hot under the collar. At first, I thought Thor was pulling my leg, moaning and groaning his way through about half his plate without saying a word. My own fork hung between my plate and my mouth, frozen as I watched.
di sas ter
Thor beamed, showing me his lopsided grin for the first time in a week.
:’)
“Uh,” he said. “Hey.” I think my exact words were, “Fwuh?”
“Lucy,” I said, all serious. “I think I might be bi.” She stared at me, expectant. The silence stretched on for a long ass time before she finally squinted and said, “Okay, and?” I sputtered. “Good grief, isn’t that enough?”
Lucy I love thee
“But then,” she said, and here she grinned indulgently. “You did the like, peak straight guy thing and immediately asked out the biggest gay at the party, so I thought I had it wrong.”
“I don’t think I’m ready to really do anything about this yet. Or ever. I have no idea, really.” “That’s okay, Cas. And it doesn’t make it any less true, okay?”
Wholesome wholesome wholesome wholesome
I nyoomed to the bathroom,
“Dad?” Thor emerged bleary eyed and tousle-haired from his bedroom, in boxers and a big t-shirt. Holy shit, my t-shirt.
Disaster
As I scooted toward him, I remembered something. “You’re wearing my shirt,” I said, snaking an arm around his waist.
“You have to go,” he said. Go? No, obviously what I had to do was quit hockey and drop out of school so I could spend the rest of my life in this bed. “Huh?”
Sometime yesterday, I decided it was time for me to make the first move. When I’d looked at him before he went to bed last night, he’d made a soft little noise, somewhere between a sigh and a whine—and the best part was, I didn’t think he even realized he’d made it.
Cas let out a little snort, but his gaze softened a bit. “I am…crazy about you,” he said. I felt like someone had filled me with boiling water. “Yeah?” “Yes,” he said. “You fucking idiot. I thought I was straight until I first laid eyes on you.” I certainly grinned at him like an idiot,
there was pic waiting for me, a pic that told the captain of my brain ship to take the night off and let my dick be in charge of running things.
My little Thunder God, I thought—cupping his cheek as he looked at me from below his thick lashes, eyes dark, possessive, and stormy.
“Call me baby again,” I whispered against his mouth.
I wanted to see that monster dick hard and proud,
ahahahahahahahaha
Thor opened one eye. “What?” “Your dick is huge,” I blurted. “Huh?” He was so confused,
Cas sat beside me, leaning in to whisper in my ear. “What’s the deal with PDA in front of your family?” I grinned. “It’s fine,” I whispered back. He immediately snaked an arm around my waist and pulled me closer on the little couch, so we touched hip to shoulder and I felt immensely comforted by his presence.
“The whole, liking guys thing. I’d understand if you—” Cas pressed a palm to my mouth. “Thor, I have literally been dreaming of getting my mouth on you for weeks. Let me have my fun.” And I mean, really, how could I argue with that?
and his dick like a goddamn flagpole.
? Aight
Thor still watched me. “What?” He shrugged. “You’re just cute,” he said. “That’s all.” Which left me extremely flustered.

Which meant I had to spend the day not thinking about mating.
Oh dear >:)
I didn’t know what it was about that word that got me so fucking hot. It was an unusual term, not one I’d ever used outside of a science class, and something about that really turned my crank.
Goddamn
My little Thunder God might have me on my knees in the bedroom, but
When I walked into the apartment, I found Thor waiting for me. Shit. Just looking at him, with his big eyes and slightly parted lips, I couldn’t think. Or move. Or do anything. “Um.”
He blushed and gave me a sweet smile. “Alright,” he said. “If that’s what you want. Prepare to be wooed, Cassian Rhodes.” My heart actually fluttered. God help me, I was so screwed.
So, I decided to take my ass for a solo flight before I invited anyone else into the cockpit. Oh my God, what a horrible metaphor.
Finally, my dad cleared his throat. “His—his name is…what?”
Papa Rhodes passes the vibe check
During a lull in the conversation, he caught my eye and missed his mouth with his fork, stabbing himself. “Ow,” he said softly, blushing. Yes. I loved him.
Jesse stood at the counter mixing pancake batter like it had insulted his mother.
?
“But I don’t want you to feel like you can’t be a kid.” I scowled. He laughed. “Okay, so you’re not a kid. But you’re my kid.”
“You are so beautiful,” I told Cas. Suddenly bashful, Cas released his legs. “Jesus,” he said, turning his face away. “You can’t say stuff like that when I have my ass in the air.”
Cry laughing at 3am
Part of the appeal of this whole Alpha business was having a partner who wanted to take care of you. And here I was, covered in crispy dried jizz, alone in bed after our first night together.
but at the very least I felt that I deserved a nice blowjob for my bravery. Where the hell was Thor?
I filled my camera roll with stupidly cute hedgehog pics. My favorite by far was one where I put Thor in a mug and pretended to take a sip for a selfie. His little face looked so grouchy in the picture that I immediately made it the lock screen background on my phone.
Thor clucked, looking at the bite. “Don’t be so dramatic.” “That’s rich, coming from the guy who spent forty-eight hours as a hedgehog because he was a little embarrassed.”
Cas stood in the kitchen, openly scowling, and he didn’t even offer to make Rafe a sandwich, which was the Cassian Rhodes equivalent of taking off his glove and smacking Rafe in the face with it.
“I’ll just, leave these with you and get out of your hair.” “What?” “I think your mate is feeling a little territorial,” he whispered to me. “What was that?” Cas said loudly.
“And we’ve really got to have a discussion about that nickname.” “Sorry, but that ship has long since sailed.” I grinned, in truth, the fact that the pet name annoyed Thor made me even more eager to tease him with it.
For someone who had gone the first twenty years of his life with near-zilch as far as sexual contact was concerned, the last few weeks had transformed my little Thunder God into an insatiable, cum-hungry monster.
cum-hungry
“Still though. This is where I cook. The food. That we eat.” “I know,” he said, scooting forward to kiss my neck, correctly assuming that licking the bite he’d left there would crumble my resolve. “You eat my ass, too, though.”
However, I was in a basement with an earthen floor. I had yet to test the limits of my burrowing capabilities. Did hedgehogs even burrow? Well, I was fucking gonna.
