“Hey, my dirty girl.”

Having the man I’d adored for as long as I could remember kissing me and murmuring against my lips to wake me up made for the most magical morning ever. My dream really had come true, I was the luckiest woman alive. As his voice hummed through my body, I felt that intense spark coming right back. Maybe it was time for round two.

“Hello there, handsome.” I propped myself up onto my elbows and grinned widely at Markus. If I’d been worried that it was going to be weird and awkward the next day, I needn’t have. This was the easiest morning after the night before I’d ever experienced. It just felt really natural, which was unexpected because of how we knew one another. “How are you?”

“I’ve made you breakfast, and I’ve brought you a coffee. I thought that would be a nice treat since you spend most of your life making me hot drinks.” He laughed, a musical sound that made my heart hammer excitedly. Even though it was way too soon, I could feel myself falling…

I grabbed the mug gratefully from him and sucked the liquid down like there was no tomorrow. It tasted like liquid gold, much better than the stuff we kept at the office, not that it was the right moment to talk about that. “Ah thank you. I’ll have this then I can get out of your hair.” It felt nice to be here, but the last thing I wanted to do was outstay my welcome. I didn’t want Markus to think that I was reading too much into anything. I needed to remain cool, even if I didn’t feel it.

“No, why would you go?” he whined, while jumping onto the bed and wrapping his fingers lovingly around my cheeks. “I don’t want you to leave.” So much for me seeing things that weren’t there! He kissed me tenderly, pressing his lips up against mine lightly as if I was a precious gem to be treasured forever. With every passing second, I could feel myself living my dream.

“You don’t?” I murmured as my eyes fell closed. “Well, whatever you want.” I didn’t want to leave this bed ever, so if Markus wanted me to stay then who the hell was I to argue.

“Actually I have a party tonight, you should stay for it.”

Oh wow, the idea at attending one of Markus’s posh parties at his mansion as his plus one filled me utter joy. I could just see it, everyone’s eyes respectfully on me, looking at me as if I was one of them, like I truly was a princess…

But then of course that was never going to happen. I stood out from a mile off, it was so obvious that I didn’t belong. My clothes made me stand out before I even started. There was no way I could fake it, that part would have to remain in my head only.

“I… I don’t think that’s a good idea.” My voice shook as I spoke, turning down an offer I wanted to grab hold of with both hands.
