“What’s wrong with what you’re wearing?” Devyn asked as he reached down and took her hand in his.
“It’s not exactly appropriate for a restaurant,” Andi mumbled sadly, because she would actually love to go to dinner with him.
“Then, it’s probably a good thing that we don’t have to go anywhere,” Devyn said, making her frown as he gave her hand a gentle pull that had her climbing off the bed and following him into the living room.
“What are you…” Andi asked, only to have her words trail off when she spotted the blanket thrown in front of the fireplace with several silver trays covered in food and candles lit around the room. “It’s beautiful.”
“You like it?” Devyn asked, leading her to the blanket.
“I love it,” she whispered, unable to help but smile as she took in the incredibly romantic gesture before she found herself glancing down at her pajamas and-
“I think I’m overdressed,” Devyn said with a mock wince that had her lips twitching. With a wink, he released her hand as he toed off his shoes and pulled off his jacket, tossing it on the back of the couch that he’d pushed out of the way before pulling off his shirt and tie. “Better?”
“I suppose this will do,” Andi murmured as she ran her eyes over him, taking in the incredibly handsome man before her.
“I think I managed to get all of your favorites,” Devyn said with one of those incredibly sexy smiles that she really loved as he took her hand in his and sat down on the blanket, giving her hand a gentle tug that had her sitting down next to him and taking in the trays of food in front of them only to feel her lips twitch.
“Are those BLTs?” Andi asked, reaching for one.
“With extra bacon,” he said as she ran her gaze over the rest of the selection, taking in the small tray of sliced fruit, the silver bowl filled with potato chips, glasses of chocolate milk, and-
“Why didn’t we stay at The Charlton?” she asked, her gaze shooting to him as she nibbled on the admittedly delicious sandwich.
Devyn met her gaze for a moment before he said, “You know why.”

“Because you’re ashamed of me?”Andi asked, blinking innocently as she continued nibbling on her sandwich while Devyn sat there, narrowing his eyes on her.
“Yes,” he bit out, watching as her lips twitched.
“I can see that,” Andi murmured in agreement, nodding solemnly before her shoulders slumped in defeat and she mumbled, “I have to tell you something.”
“What’s that?” Devyn bit out as he glared at the small woman clearly enjoying screwing with him as he reached over and plucked the rest of her sandwich out of her hand and finished it off in one bite, his glare never wavering as he waited for her to continue.
“There’s really no easy way to say this, but I think it might be a good idea if we kept our relationship a secret at work,” Andi said, damn near making him sigh with relief, that is, until she added, “I just don’t want anyone to know that I’ve settled.”
“Settled?” he repeated as the little brat that he adored nodded with a forlorn sigh.
“I’m afraid so,” Andi said with a helpless shrug.
“I see…” Devyn murmured absently as he shoved the trays out of the way.
“That will make this easier,” Andi said with a relieved sigh as he moved over her, giving her no other choice but to lie back on the floor.
“And what are you suggesting?” Devyn asked, his gaze never leaving hers as he settled between her legs.
“That you try your best to keep your dirty little hands off me while I’m at work, so that I don’t have to hang my head in shame around the water bubbler. I don’t want people thinking that I only let you hire me because I wanted to have my dirty way with you,” she said, only to moan when his lips found her throat.
“We wouldn’t want that,” Devyn said against her throat as he reached for the hem of her shirt.
“We really wouldn’t.”
