I hold out my hand, and she jumps up, dashing to me. “Good morning!”
All about the hugs, I engulf her the way she loves and let her sweetness temporarily absolve the sin I bring to her world.
“I like you being here when I wake up.”
She whispers against my chest. I’d sleep here every night if I could, but I can’t risk her health by coming in at all hours from work. “So you forgive me for breaking in last night?”
I know she does, yet I still ask to stay in her good graces.
“Yes. Somehow, I can’t stay mad at you even though I should be.”
“Yes, you should but I’m glad you’re not.”
My agreement elicits a giggle from her succulent mouth. All is forgiven. “Take your shower, and I’ll get us some breakfast.”
The humungous smile fades, and her gaze drops from my face to my stomach.
“I’m sorry but I don’t have much to eat. I wasn’t expecting…I mean…”
In her effort not to be rude, she stumbles over her words trying not to admit she doesn’t have enough food to feed a man. I cup her cheeks, forcing her head up to look at me. “I’m a terrible cook so you don’t have to worry. I’m going to order something in. Don’t say it’s not necessary or too expensive because I’m doing it.”
My tone allows for no argument, so she doesn’t. Instead, she nods in my palms and waits for more. “Now get going.”
I graze her lips with a soft kiss that’s difficult to keep chaste with my cock tenting her thin towel. Reminding me that I need to keep some clothes here too.
She smiles when I pull away, so I know all is well. It takes everything I’ve got not to smack her ass as she scurries away from me.
Once the door closes, I grab my clothes that she neatly folded from the top of her dresser and then my phone. I order take out as well as groceries since I plan to be here a lot.
She’ll want to take care of me, and I refuse to be a burden to her. I have to make sure she never doubts who is actually taking care of whom.
Seraphina
Act professional.
Focus on work.
Ignore all thoughts of Balthazar.
Easier said than done when I log into my computer and his email waits for me.
An inferno engulfs me as I read his words.
Seraphina Snow is an intelligent, capable employee who excels at her job as evidenced by her contributions in the short time she’s been employed with the Magi Law Office. Her performance consistently exceeds expectations.
He continues on with the information regarding the EEOC and confirmation that if at any time I feel my employment is in jeopardy for any reason, I should contact them. I skim that part and go back to the top of the page.
I know I shouldn’t be so thrilled with his compliments. But I’ve worked really hard to be successful and now I feel like I am. He takes my career seriously despite our personal relationship. I want my boyfriend to be proud of me, and he is.
He is.
“Seraphina?”
London’s voice pierces my daydream, and I jump up from my chair. Humiliated that I didn’t even hear her walk up despite her heels clicking on the marble, I brighten my expression and smile. “Good morning, Ms. Fine.”
She chuckles, and I swear her grin is almost a smirk.
“You look like you were deep in thought already.”
