Gone to the gym,

back soon.

X

Relief fills me. Okay . . . he’s only at the gym, and he left me a note.

Crisis averted.

I lie in bed and smile goofily up at the ceiling. Last night was the most incredible sexual experience of my life.

He’s so . . .

Wow.

I feel sated and alive. And damn it, I want more.

Henley James is one addictive drug.

I know he’s not at the gym. He’s visiting his father, being the wonderful man that I know he is deep down. He’ll be back soon.

Fuck, he’ll be back soon, and I look like roadkill. I need to be simply irresistible from here on out. I jump up and bounce into the shower. Time to get back to my hard-to-get plan.

Focus, bitch.

“Another coffee?” the waitress asks.

“That would be lovely. Thank you.” I smile. I glance at my watch. 7:45 a.m.

Where is he?

I’m sitting in the hotel restaurant, trying to play hard to get. I’m waiting for him to call me to see where I am when he gets back.

He better fucking call me.

What if this plan backfires and he just leaves without me?

It won’t. He won’t.

If I want more of this man, I have to make him think I’m not attached and clingy.

But right at this moment, I feel serial-killer clingy toward him.

My phone beeps a text.

Where are you?

I smile. Yes!

I text him back.

I’m in the restaurant having breakfast.

Join me?

I hunch my shoulders up like a little kid. Everything is going according to plan.

Okay, see you soon.
