I hear the shower turn off, and moments later, he walks in with a towel around his waist. When he gets his suit from the wardrobe, his eyes glance to me.
“Hi.” I smile.
“Good morning, Eliza,” he says coolly.
“Still hate me?” I ask playfully.
“I do, actually.” He unzips his suit bag and takes the suit out before he walks out into the living area.
Great, he’s going to make me grovel. I lie for a moment, listening to him move around as he dresses, and then I hear the coffee machine switch on. That’s it. I’m up. I walk out into the living room naked to see Dr. Mercer in all his glory, wearing perfect-fit navy suit, a crisp white shirt, and a striped tie, as well as his usual expensive shoes and designer chunky watch. His hair has a bit of a curl to it and is messed to perfection. He smells delicious. The aftershave Nathan wears to work must hypnotise all his female patients. Who am I kidding? It would hypnotise everyone who came into contact with him.
I slide my hands around under his suit as I cuddle up to him. “Nathe, I’m sorry about last night.”
He stares down at me but doesn’t put his arms around me.
“I didn’t mean for that to sound the way it did. It came out wrong.” I go up onto my tippy toes and kiss his big, beautiful lips. “I love you.”
“I didn’t like it.”
I kiss him again as I run my fingers through his stubble and stare into his big blue eyes. “I’m sorry. I realize how it must have sounded. I’m going to tell everyone about us today. I can’t wait to see them.”
He gives me a lopsided smile, and his hands slide around to my behind and he bends and kisses me, our lips linger over each other’s. “Okay.”
I straighten his tie and dust off his shoulders. “I’m going to make it up to you tonight.”
“How are you going to do that?”
I put my lips to his ear. “I’m going to suck your dick so fucking good,” I breathe.
He smirks as his eyes darken. His hand slides up my body and cups my breast. He tweaks my nipple hard, and he grabs my face and turns it to the side. Then he bites my ear. Goosebumps scatter up my arms. “I look forward to it.”
He kisses me aggressively. His tongue is full of power, and want, and oh… let’s go back to bed.
“Goodbye, Eliza.” He picks up his briefcase, and without another word, he walks out. The door clicks shut behind him. I stand and stare at the back of it for a moment with a goofy smile on my face.
I love that man.

I walk into the hospital at 7:00 a.m.. Henry is in surgery today so I work out of his office here at the private hospital. I take the lift up to my level and make my way down to the office. Henry is sitting at his desk with his laptop open.
“Hey, there she is.” He smiles happily. “Thank fuck you’re back.”
“Hi.” I laugh at his excited reaction.
“How was the trip?”
“Oh, so good. Majorca is beautiful. You should go one day.”
He turns back to his laptop and types something. “I think it’s more of a romantic getaway, isn’t it?”
“No, singles, too.” I frown. Hang on, the girls mentioned he has a girlfriend, “Aren’t you with your girlfriend anymore?”
“No.” He twists his lips, as if frustrated. “While you were on the other side of the world being a love bird, I was back here breaking up with my girlfriend of four years. It’s been a rough two weeks.”
“Oh, no.” I slump into the seat beside him. “What happened?”
“Well.” He shrugs. “She was pressuring me to get married and I figured that if getting married to someone feels so wrong, maybe she isn’t the right one.”
