“I’ve gotta go,” he says just after seven a.m.on Thursday morning before hooking his arm around my waist and pulling me in for a kiss.His lips linger on mine after he kisses me.“You taste like strawberries and vanilla.”

I put my hand to his back and hold him close.“It’s a new lip cream I’m trying.”

He kisses me again.“I hope it works out.”

When I refuse to let him go, he gives me a sexy smile.“You’ve had my body for two hours, Ace.It needs time to recover.”

I pout.“And here I was thinking you were pretty much an endurance athlete.”

“At the rate I’m going, I’m not going to be any kind of athlete.”

He’s referring to the fact he didn’t get any exercise in the last two mornings before work.“I don’t know, I think sex helps.”I let him go and step away from him.“But I’ll be sure to leave you alone every morning just in case.”

“Don’t you dare.”He checks the time on his watch and curses.“I’ll pick you up at seven tonight.Don’t forget to wear that indecent bra for me.”

Callan’s taking me on our first date tonight.I have no idea where because he refuses to tell me.All I know is that he’s taking me to dinner.And that I should wear that bra.

It’s a long day.Work is causing me no end of headaches this week.The client who expressed concern over my work last week is still not happy to be working with me.After days of trying to placate him, I tell Hayden this morning to assign another lawyer to him.Unfortunately, he’s not the only client spooked by the things written about me on social media.Two other clients have made it clear they’re paying close attention to my work.It’s stressful and I’m angry with Penelope for putting me in this situation.

Callan calls me at our usual eleven a.m.time.His day is also hectic and I can tell he needs to not be distracted even though it’s clear he very much wants to be distracted.I only give him five minutes when what I really want is to give him five years all at once.Neither of us are happy to end the call.

Blair and Sasha text with me an hour later, improving my mood immensely.

Blair

Has Callan told you where he’s taking you tonight?

Olivia

No.All I know is dinner.

Sasha

All that matters is the sex though, right?

Blair

I see Rhodes’s dick is still out of action.

Sasha

Ugh.

Olivia

I’ve already had sex twice today.

Sasha

SHUT UP.

Olivia

Four orgasms!

Sasha

You are dead to me.
