“I was thinking the same thing about you.”

I pull her to her feet and lead her back to the bed. We tumble onto it, and I climb on top of her. Cassidy puts a hand up to stop me. “I’m still a little bit sore from last night. Can we try again a little bit later?” She suggests.

I kiss her. “If you say so, but I can’t be left waiting for too long.”

“Then, I’ll make sure that I get better in no time.”

“You’d better.”

For the first time, I feel myself wanting only one woman – this woman - and she amazes me every day.

I kiss her again. “Do you want me to join you?”

She laughs. “I think that would defeat the entire point of taking a shower. We would get dirtier.”

“That’s not true!” I exclaim. “We’d only get dirty a little bit and then clean again.”

“One step forward, two steps back." She playfully rolls her eyes. "That’s a great idea.”

“Last chance. You sure you don’t want me in there with you?”

“I think getting in after you will be good enough.” She pushes me to the bathroom. "Get showered and dressed first because you're faster, and I'm going to enjoy this massive bed a little longer."

She gets in bed and snuggles under the covers. I laugh. I can hardly believe that we're together, in a relationship. I never thought this would be me, but I'm beyond happy.

We officially decided to move forward, as a couple.

After I shower, I leave the hot water running, knowing that Cassidy will get in after me. When I enter the bedroom, Cassidy walks toward the bathroom, fully naked. What is this woman doing to me? How can I keep my hands to myself when looking at the very definition of beautiful?

I step toward her, and she takes a large step backward. “Don’t even think about it, Ivan!” She exclaims, a wide grin on her face.

I groan. “How do you expect me not to touch you when you look like that?”

She shrugs her slender shoulders. “Try harder.” She slips into the bathroom and closes the door.

I hear the lock click and let out a sigh. She is going to be the death of me. I change into boxers and sweatpants and go without a t-shirt because I feel Cassidy will appreciate it.

I leave the bedroom with a smile on my face and

head downstairs while Cassidy showers. The bright morning light pours into my penthouse, and everything glimmers in the morning light, from the sleek marble countertops to the stainless-steel appliances. The large windows allow for plenty of natural sunlight, illuminating each corner of the room. In the center stands an impressive kitchen island with all sorts of foodstuffs at my disposal.

Usually, I don't cook for a woman. It takes more work and effort than I’m willing to give, but I’ll do anything for Cassidy. at

Breakfast food is my specialty, and I am damn sure going to impress her.

Even though I don't cook often, my staff prepares excellent meals, so my fridge is well stocked. I open the oversized fridge and look for ingredients for a quick gourmet breakfast.

I start pulling out ingredients for a French toast casserole with mascarpone and raspberries. I spread a mixture of mascarpone cheese, eggs, sugar, and cinnamon over thick slices of toasted brioche bread, then top it off with fresh raspberries. I arrange the pieces in a baking dish, preheat the oven, and make the coffee.

With everything ready, I pour two cups of freshly brewed espresso and bring them to Cassidy's room. As she steps out of the shower, I hand her a cup of hot coffee with a smile. "Breakfast will be ready shortly," I gently kiss her full lips and inhale the scent of her vanilla body wash. Her damp hair hangs over her bare shoulders. My body comes alive from being this close to her, but I remind myself that she needs to rest.

"I'll be ready in a bit," she smiles and leans into me for a kiss.

My lips part against hers, and a surge of electricity rushes through my veins. Our tongues meet in a passionate dance that sets my body on fire with lust. She presses closer to me, her full curves molding perfectly into the contours of my body. I grasp onto her hips as our kiss deepens, exploring every inch of her mouth with fervent desire. Every stroke of her tongue against mine ignites a blazing passion that I can’t seem to control. Our lips move in perfect harmony as if no one else exists.

I reluctantly pull away, my lips still tingling. Cassidy looks up at me and smiles, her eyes reflecting the same burning desire I feel in my heart.

"Aren’t you going to finish breakfast?" she asks, looking up at me.
