“And the purple vibrator. I wasn’t kidding about the DP, little bee.”
Her throat bobbed up and down as she swallowed hard. “I—um, I’ve never done anal before.”
The idea of being the first to claim her ass brought out something primal in him.
“I’ll be gentle, honey. I promise. The first time at least.”
Chapter Twelve
Utah
Liam carried her bag to his car while she wrapped Phoebe in a towel and followed him closely behind.
“So, what would happen if you got caught with a dog?” he asked once he started the Mercedes and pulled out of her parking spot.
“Well, according to my lease, they could evict me on the spot, although I don’t think they would do something that drastic. I’d probably get a warning first. At least I hope I would. I’ve been a good tenant for over a year and a half.”
He entwined his fingers with hers.
“I should have waited in the car with her; I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine. I don’t think anyone saw us, and besides, management has gone for the day. The only staff here this time of night is maintenance, and I don’t think they would really care one way or another.”
“If we have to come back, we’ll just leave Phoebe at home.”
Home.
It wasn’t her home, but the way he said it made her feel like he was including her. That made her heart happier than it probably should.

All three of them sat on the dog-friendly patio of her favorite ice cream parlor while they enjoyed their frozen treats.
She loved how much Liam enjoyed his sundae and was unapologetic about his sweet tooth.
His phone buzzed on the table, and he picked it up and looked down at it with furrowed brows, then glanced at his watch.
“A little late to be texting back, Peter,” he murmured before setting it back down without responding.
“Who’s that?”
“My contractor. I texted him today about getting on his schedule to put the doggie door in. It looks like he can’t fit me in for a few weeks.”
“Oh. Well, I think between a dog walker and your housekeeper, she’ll be okay until then.”
“Or you could just stay—at least until it gets installed.”
Her belly dipped at the idea. And not because she hated it.
Still, she didn’t want to appear too eager; like she didn’t have a life. Granted, hers was really lame at the moment—but he didn’t need to know that.
Utah did have her pride.
“Oh, I don’t know if I can do that. I mean, I can swing by and let her out if you need me to, and I can come the day you schedule with Peter, but I don’t think I could stay until then. Staying this week is stretching it as it is.”
“Why?”
She lifted her spoon to take a bite of ice cream but stopped short. She hadn’t been expecting that question.
