Micah leaned back in his chair in the office while Evan complained about something he could care less about. He hadn’t heard a word for at least five minutes.

“Are you listening to me?”

Micah shook his head. “You said wedding and I tuned you out.”

“I’m going to tell May you said that. I’ve been holding her off, but I warn you, she wants to talk to you. You’re the best man and you have duties.”

Micah shrugged and looked over at the screen. He thought having Dee in his bed would diffuse his infatuation. If anything, he craved her even more. Part of him thought it was the fact that she hadn’t truly submitted to him. He wasn’t sure when that would happen, if that would happen. He still sensed there was part of her that she wasn’t showing him.

“Micah.”

He glanced over at Evan with a smile. “What?”

Evan shook his head. “I’d be pissed you’re ignoring me, but truthfully I am glad you finally did it.”

“What?”

“I never thought you’d get her into bed.”

Micah’s felt his smile fade and he rolled his shoulders. He’d never had a problem talking about the women he was dating. Granted, he didn’t go into details because that was just wrong. But he never had a problem with people knowing who he was sleeping with. Something about his relationship with Dee was different. It was like he wanted to keep it secret, away from prying eyes.

“I’d rather not talk about it.”

Evan studied him for a second and started laughing.

“What?” Micah asked, not able to keep the irritation out of his voice.

“I love being right. God, I love being right.”

“Right about what?”

He shook his head. “I told Chris you were stuck on her. I was right. Did you ever find out where she learned to defend herself?”

Micah looked at the screen. “Didn’t really ask.”

“I would if I were you, so you can be prepared if it shows up on your doorstep.”

Micah nodded and said nothing. He knew better than to tell Evan he wouldn’t be asking Dee. Their relationship was too fragile. With any D/s relationship, the Dom had to be careful not to order too much, want too much. Especially when this felt like the real thing.

A knot formed in his throat and he swallowed. He couldn’t deal with that right now because he would just go crazy. He couldn’t demand her compliance as his sub, it was wrong. He knew some did it, but it was a line he refused to cross. Especially since he felt as if this time he was playing for keeps.

“So, what do you think of the property.”

“What?”

Evan sighed, got up and walked around the desk to his computer. After punching a URL into the browser, he motioned toward the screen.

“That.”

Micah looked at it. It was near Sunset Beach, a little rundown, but had a lot of parking and he recognized the area. They would get a lot of touristy business. “That might do. What are they asking?”

Evan named the price and Micah frowned.
