I hurry up and open the locks, blinking to make sure Calista’s really here.

“Are you a dream?” I pull her into the condo, her small suitcase trailing behind her. Then I look down the hallway toward the elevator. “Is the monster chasing you?”

“What?” Her forehead creases.

“I thought it ate you.” My hands touch her everywhere as my eyes take her in. Last, I check her left hand. No ring.

“Rylan.” She puts her hand on my forehead. “Are you okay?”

I pull her toward me. “He was stripping you and mauling you. I couldn’t get to you. I was chained up.”

She laughs into my chest, and I hold her tightly.

“I think you’re still sleeping,” she says, placing her hands on my face.

“No. It’s just this nightmare that’s been plaguing me for the last week. What are you doing here?”

She draws in a deep breath, seeming to gather her courage. “I’m here to apologize. I’m here to tell you I love you and I’ve been a fool for far too long and I want us to work. Whatever that means.”

My smile spreads slowly, and I feel as if a thousand-pound weight has been lifted off my chest. “Really?”

She nods.

“Me too, baby. God, I’ve missed you so much. I love you. I was an idiot to come back here.” I pick her up, and her legs wrap around my waist.

“Take me to our bed,” she says.

“My fucking pleasure.”

I walk us to our room and deposit her carefully on the bed. She quickly strips down and gets on her knees, pushing down my pajama pants.

“Okay, first time fast, but the second time, we take it slow.”

She climbs me, hanging off my neck. “Whatever you say, Mr. Greene. I’m yours.”

“Forever?”

“And ever.”

“And always.”

I lower her to the bed and slide into her. Her back arches and she moans.

“I love you,” I murmur right before taking her left breast in my mouth.

“I love you more.”

After an incredible night of sex, I slip out of the bed the next morning and head to the kitchen. I start the coffeepot and look in my fridge where I have… nothing. I order breakfast from the restaurant down the street and I’m just getting her a cup of coffee when my doorbell rings. I answer the door, and the courier looks down at me.

“Sorry, the girlfriend surprised me last night.” My dick is swinging back and forth in full view of this poor guy. He should be happy I don’t have a hard-on what with my thoughts on Calista again.

After I sign, he hands me the envelope. I go to the couch and open the envelope. I don’t think twice about it, grabbing a nearby pen and signing my name in all the flagged areas, initialing all the places I have to. The woman sprawled out in my bed is worth more than this any day of the week.

“Hey, you. I don’t like waking without you.” Calista comes out wearing my shirt and, if I’m lucky, nothing underneath. She rubs her eyes and her hair is a mess, but it’s one of her best looks. She climbs onto my lap and straddles me. “Why aren’t you in bed?”

“I was just ordering us breakfast, and I made you coffee.”

“Coffee?” Her eyes light up.
