Chapter Eleven
Present
He flipped the ham and cheese omelet in the pan before opening the back door to let out the worldâs most needy mutt. Christ. Heâd spent the night in her bed, woke up to make them breakfast, and became wet nurse to her high maintenance dog.
Nothing was going according to plan anymore, and he didnât give a shit. She and Sebastian werenât together, and all he felt wasârelief. Sure, some of it was because he didnât want her with the selfish prick, but mostly it was because she wasnât with anybody. As if she still belonged to him.
Yep. Heâd gone batshit crazy. When he heard her crying last night, heâd decided to help her through this mess. Owed it to her. If he happened to enjoy himself in the process, it was the icing on the cake.
âAre you cooking for me again?â She sauntered into the kitchen in a white bathrobe, hair piled on top of her head in a messy bun, and eyes puffy from the emotional roller coaster ride her douchebag ex-boyfriend had taken her on.
Fucking gorgeous. No other way to describe her. Who looked this good after a night spent crying?
More importantly, how the hell had he survived a night in her bed without touching her? Held her while she slept, inundated with the lavender bubble bath she must have used in the tub as she snuggled against him. Heâd wrapped her up and kept her close all night, unsure who needed it more, him or her.
âI wake up early. Figured youâd be hungry when you got up.â
âI donât even eat breakfast most days, but this looks amazing. So yes. Iâm definitely hungry now.â She laughed.
She was lighter this morning. Hopefully sheâd shed her last tear over both Sebastian and her mother last night, but he doubted it.
âGood. Weâre staying here today. I called Ryan, and everything is covered at the restaurant.â
âWhat? No. Iâm going to work.â
âListen, the press is aware you left the event early. Four guys are staked out at the restaurant according to Ryan, so you can work from home. Iâll stay with you. Weâll keep the blinds closed, watch movies, and play hooky,â he said with a laugh, setting both plates down.
âSo bossy.â She forked a bite of eggs. A long moan from her sweet lips followed, causing him to push to his feet in desperate need to put some space between them. Yeah, an ice-cold shower would be fucking helpful about now, but heâd settle for a cold glass of water.
To say heâd been uncomfortable this morning after having her body pressed against his all night was an understatement. Now she moaned while she ate? His body buzzed with anticipation.
âI am technically your boss, right?â He drank the entire glass of water before returning to his seat.
âYouâre my client.â
âWho you work for.â
âTouché, boss-man,â she said with a laugh.
She agreed to turn her phone off after touching base with her dad, Jayden, Camille, Dani, and Elle.
They worked on their laptops most of the morning and took a break to watch a movie after lunch.
