I giggled. “I’d say your wish was already granted.”

He chuckled. “God, you’re incredible. I was serious about my plans for the day.”

“You can’t expect me to stay in bed all day.” I eyed him. My body was humming. Singing.

“I didn’t say bed. You have a lot of options in this suite. Wall. Shower. That tiny couch thing over there.”

I gawked. He was serious. He nuzzled close to me. My heart beat with his. I felt how they synced together. I exhaled quietly.

“Knight?”

“Hmm?” His eyes closed, even though his fingers drew lazy circles along my arms.

I shook my head. “Never mind.” I didn’t want to ruin the moment. I didn’t want to disturb the tranquility we had found, even if it was drenched in sex.

He rolled on his side. “Never mind never means never mind. Talk. What are you thinking over there?”

I glanced at him from the side. He was right. He knew how to gauge my intentions. I thought he always had. “You never told me about Crew. About the meeting.”

“Not yet.”

“And? Don’t you think you should make good on your promise?”

He propped up on his elbow. His eyes fell to my lips. They must look bruised and swollen the way he had kissed me.

“It’s not a quick conversation. It’s a complicated situation. The fallout is going to be immense.”

I jerked the sheet to my chest. He had my attention. “What kind of fallout?” I didn’t understand how Crew could be involved in anything like that.

“I think we should have some coffee brought up. This is going to take a while.”

I nodded. “All right.” I began to maneuver away from him, when Knight, caught my waist.

“I didn’t say you needed to go anywhere.”

I laughed. “But it sounds serious. I think we should get dressed. I’ll have breakfast brought up,” I offered.

“If you put on one shred of clothing, I’m just going to take it off,” he warned.

“Even if Kimble reappears?”

He shook his head. “Why is he still around? I get why your dad hired him, but really that guy is weirdly obsessive about you. It’s not good.”

I sighed. “Maybe there’s more than one discussion we need to have this morning.” At some point I was going to have to tell him what had happened.

His eyes darkened as if he already knew.

I kissed him on the cheek before crawling off the bed. “Let me call downstairs to the kitchen. I’ll be right back.”

He nodded and I padded over to the intercom to give Bella her instructions.

“Kennedy?

I looked over at Knight. He was sprawled across my sheets. His beautiful body, canvassing the entire mattress.

“Yes?”

“We should make a promise before we say anything else.”
