Chapter Six

Owen

“Well look who it is. It’s good to see you again, Owen.”

“You’re looking sharp, sir.” It’s a miracle that he survived a heart attack and is recovering so well to be with his family again. He looks rejuvenated.

“Excuse me. I need to hurry up,” Autumn says, excusing herself.

“Okay, beautiful.” I wink and she runs up the stairs. It takes all my strength to keep my head forward and away, to avoid looking up at her sexy ass as it jiggles up the steps.

“So, how was business in Chicago?”

“Boring and time consuming. I couldn’t wait to get back to Meadow Falls.”

“We’re glad to have you back. I’m sure you heard there was an incident at the property.”

“Oh yes. A couple of trespassers were spotted.”

“Yes, you need to be careful because they can steal things,” he chuckles.

Oh she stole something alright and I have no intentions of changing a damn thing about it. My heart is now hers. “Well, as it happens, I have cameras all around the land and I noticed the little burglars and my construction lead met them. Unfortunately, they ran away.”

“She said he offered them a tour.”

“Yes, I wanted to see what she thought of it, but I guess I’ll have to wait until we look at it personally.” There are some things that are most definitely going to need a final touch, but so far, I can move into a smaller guest bedroom which is nice since I have a lot of shit to do from now until Christmas. I’m having the crew come in and finish the master bedroom tomorrow and hopefully by tonight I’ll have all the right ideas on what it should look like from its other future occupant.

“You look radiant, Autumn,” I say as she steps back into the living room. My pants growing tighter by the moment.

“Thank you.”

I can’t take my eyes off her in that perfect tan sweater dress that wraps around her body. A cough comes from beside me, reminding me that we’re not alone. “You two have a good night.”

I cleared my throat with an apologetic smile. “Thank you, Mr. Sager, and thank you for taking my call the other day.”

“No problem. Anytime you need to talk business, please stop by or give me a call.”

“Will do.” I took her hand and led her to my vehicle.

“Where are we going?” she asked.

“We’re dining at the house tonight. The food is being delivered as we speak.”

“What?”

“I had a favor called in.” Matthew had his assistant drop off a spread from Magdalenas, the Italian place downtown.

When we arrive, I lead her inside and it smells amazing. The atmosphere is dark and lit only by small work lights that the construction crew left for the night.

“This is amazing.” It’s nothing special, but I want her alone without the prying eyes and listening ears.

“So tell me more about you, Autumn. What do you want out of life?” I want to give her everything I can, so we have a happy life. Hopefully our dreams will align.
