SAMANTHA YAWNED AS she pulled on her black, knee-high boots. “Curse you, Kade Gunnach,” she said to the floor. She’d stayed far past the one-hour promise, falling asleep in Kade’s lap and waking up in his guest room at almost four. She’d attempted to slide out from under the covers, but found herself pulled up against him instead.

“Where are you going?” he’d grumbled.

“Kade, I’m still fully clothed and under a pile of blankets,” she’d complained. “I was thinking I’d go home and sleep there where I can be comfortable.”

He nuzzled her neck and hummed his disagreement. “I like you just where you are. Stay.”

“I’m in jeans and a long-sleeved shirt, babe. I really need to get into something else.”

He sat up and rubbed his hands down his face. “If I get you a pair of my pajamas, will you stay?”

Sam yawned. “Do I really have a choice?”

“Of course,” he retorted. “Head all the way home, climb into a cold bed, and find yourself miserable without me.”

Sam giggled. “Well, when you put it that way…”

He gathered up a pair of cotton pajamas that she had a feeling he’d never worn and once she’d changed into them, she met him back in the guest room. He was now in a T-shirt and flannel pants, which showcased his physique nicely. He took her hand and led her to the master bedroom.

“What are you doing?” Sam asked.

“I hate that bed. I want to sleep with you in my bed.”

“Why did you sleep in there to begin with?”

“I didn’t want you to wake up and get scared.” He held the covers back on his large king-sized bed and waited for her to climb in.

“You are entirely too good to be true.” She’d kissed him and then was suddenly jarred awake by his alarm.

Now she sat in her apartment, working on her second cup of coffee and wishing she could sleep for another six hours. Kade was already at work, and she was waiting for Fiona to pick her up for their day of fun.

Don’t fall asleep, love.

She started and wrinkled her nose. I wasn’t falling asleep, I was checking for holes in my eyelids.

Laughter sounded in her mind. I do love your southern expressions.

Good to know.

I’ll make it up to you tonight.

She sighed. I just end up more like the walking dead when you “make it up to me.” Besides, you’ll be at your dinner tonight.

After the meeting.

She let out a quiet snort. I will be sleeping.

Fiona’s at your door. Have fun. I love you.

“How did you know that?” she wondered aloud, and then her doorbell rang.

She pulled open the door and grinned. Fiona stood with Payton in the hallway.

“I hope you don’t mind that I brought Payton,” Fiona said. “She doesn’t like to be without me.”

Samantha laughed. “Hi. Come in.”

The ladies breezed inside and Samantha closed the door. She hugged them and then gathered up her purse and jacket.

“How did you get the day off?” she asked Payton.

Payton smiled. “Fiona finagled it. Anna’s taking notes for the meetings.
