“I called my executive assistant and Beckett to tell them I wouldn’t be in today.”

“Is everything okay?”

“Everything is perfect.”

“So why aren’t you going in?”

“I’m the boss and it’s my prerogative,” he says with a wink.

I roll my eyes. “All right, Mr. COO. It’s good to hold that much power.” I laugh.

He doesn’t.

He turns off the waffle iron and places the last waffle on a plate, and turns his undivided attention to me, his expression serious.

“I decided not to go in because of you, Keira.”

“Because of me?” I point at my chest.

His glacier-blue eyes are intense. “I want to spend the day with my girlfriend.”

Maybe too much fucking inhibits my ability to hear.

“Wh—what?”

“I said, I want to spend the day with my girlfriend.”

The second time around doesn’t dampen the shock.

My jaw drops and I stand there momentarily dumbstruck.

His eyes bore into mine. “Last week, I was in denial. Last night, we went from wine to sixty-nine. I thought I would be able to take things slow, but I wanted you so damn much?—”

“It was mutual.”

His lips stretch into a warm smile. “Today, I want to enjoy you, and spend the whole day kissing you.”

I’m grinning like a fool.

“You’re going to keep me trapped in your mansion with your lips on mine?”And hopefully your lips on my pussy?

“Pretty much.”

“And I don’t get a say?”

“Not really. You’re mine now and I have access to your lips whenever I want.”

“Thanks for the explanation, Mr. Caveman.”

I love his possessiveness.

“What can I say? You bring out the alpha in me,” he says.

“I thought Dark Compulsion did that––”

Shit, shit, shit.

He narrows his eyes at me.
