“Good morning.”

I turned at the sexy, raspy voice behind me to see Harlow standing there, looking all soft and sleepy with mussed hair. She was wearing a thin robe that was cinched at the waist and didn’t begin to disguise the fullness of her tits and hips.

“Morning. I just made some coffee.” I leaned against the counter and looked my fill. She was looking, too, her gaze lingering on my unsnapped jeans. “Hungry, baby?” I smirked.

Amusement danced in her eyes, and she ran her tongue over that sexy bottom lip as she came toward me. “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.”

I snorted. “Then why is yogurt the only shit you have in your fridge?” I closed my arms around her when she was close enough. When she raised her smiling face to me, I swooped down and gave her a brief, hard kiss. “Sleep good?”

She nodded.

“What have you got going on today?”

“I have two clients to see this morning, and then I’m going to Bobbie’s for brunch and a swim with some of the other girls.”

I nodded, satisfied that she’d be safe at Bobbie and Demon’s home. The place was like a damned fortress, complete with a high-tech security system and a panic room.

“What haveyougot going on today?” she asked smugly.

Her tone said that it was only fair that I tell her my plans since she’d told me hers, but it didn’t work that way. I grinned down at her. “Club business,” I said simply. I ignored the tightening of her lips and kissed the tip of her nose. I wanted to keep things light because I had to leave soon, but fuck if it wasn’t difficult with her warm body up against mine.

“Will I see you later?”

The yearning in her pretty eyes sucked me in. “Fuck, I hope so, babe. But know if you don’t that I’m taking care of business.” This time when I kissed Harlow it was long and hard, and just when things were heating up there was a loud knock at the door.

She stepped away with a questioning look.

“That will be our breakfast,” I explained, walking toward the door. “Yogurt is for pussies.”

“Are you saying I’m a pussy?”

“Do you have one?”

“You better hope I do,” I heard her mumble as I opened the door.

I grabbed the bag of food and shut the door. By the time I turned around, Harlow had poured us coffee and was taking it to the table. She sat down and quietly watched me take the contents out of the bag.

“Do we need plates?”

I shook my head. The restaurant had provided everything.

“Smells a lot better than yogurt.”

“Wait until you taste their crepes.”

“Crepes! I love crepes!” Her ear-to-ear smile lit up the room.

“Then eat,” I ordered after setting everything out. I sat back and let Harlow fill her plate first, grinning at the joy on her face. She took a little bit of eggs and bacon, but more than half of the crepes. I raised a brow when she finally sat back to eat.

“What?” she asked when she noticed my look.

“You took more than your share of the crepes,” I pointed out.

Her gaze encompassed the contents laid out in front of us. “I left you all of the toast and more of the eggs and bacon.”

I didn’t give a shit if she took all the crepes because I was enjoying our back-and-forth banter. “Just remember this next time.” I reached for the eggs and plopped a spoonful down onto my plate before snatching a few pieces of bacon.

“I’ll pay next time,” she offered.
