On his way to correct her—she came to him, not the other way around—he realized she was having a conversation on speaker phone. He’d smiled when he heard her friend say they were going to fall in love.
And even though he knew it was true, it felt like a punch to the gut to hear Utah say out loud she was only there to stay out of prison. And that she couldn’t be with him long-term because he didn’t want children.
They’d had such a nice day so far, he’d allowed himself to think maybe they could have a future after her house arrest with him ended. That maybe having kids wasn’t really that important to her.
They were obviously not on the same page, and he felt a little salty about it.
Still, he knew he wasn’t being fair. They were just getting to know each other; a lot could change in the next one hundred and seventeen days.
But who was counting?
Chapter Twenty-Nine
Utah
When she opened her eyes Sunday morning, she realized it was their last day together before she started at the hospital.
It needed to be special.
After brushing her teeth and running a brush through her hair, she fastened the clasp on her collar. Liam had given her permission to take it off at night and put it on herself in the morning. She then slipped on the pink silk robe he’d bought her yesterday and headed downstairs. Before walking into the kitchen where she assumed Liam was, based on the smells coming from the room, she untied and retied the robe’s belt loosely, so her boobs were peeking out of the gap in the fabric.
She breezed in and walked toward the refrigerator, skimming her fingers along his ass as he stood at the stove. “Good morning, Sir.”
He grabbed her wrist and pulled her into an embrace.
“Good morning, little bee. How did you sleep?”
“Wonderfully. How about you?”
“Draining my cock before bedtime seems to be the trick to sleeping all night.”
She stood up on her tiptoes and kissed his lips. “We’ll have to keep you well rested then, won’t we?”
He tapped her ass, and she quickly added the required, “Sir.”
“Such a good girl,” he mused before letting her go so he could flip the omelet he was making.
“Do you have to work today?” she asked as she opened the refrigerator and took out the orange juice they’d bought while grocery shopping.
“At some point, but I can take some time to spend with you.”
He really was thoughtful.
“I’d like that. Is there anything you want to do?”
“We could take Phoebe for a hike after breakfast.”
“That sounds fun. Where should we go?”
“A lot of the doctors at the hospital go to World’s End. We could check that out.” He gestured to a chair at the island. “Sit. Your omelet is done.”
He set her plate down in front of her, then opened the silverware drawer and pulled out a fork and handed it to her.
Out of habit, she added pepper from the pepper shaker on the counter then took a bite.
“This is delicious.”
He smiled at her from where he stood at the stove. “We had the ingredients—thanks to you and your grocery list.”
