Two Months Later

She did strange things to me, turning me into a man I hardly recognized as myself.

And she drove me fucking crazy.

“Can’t this thing go any faster? We’re going to miss our plane.”

Noah’s lips pressed shut against my tone, an attempt to keep the insults on the tip of his tongue to himself.

I knew I was being an ass. I just couldn’t stop myself.

I’d planned this trip for weeks and with one move, Ivy had undone all of my efforts.

Priscilla helped me hire and train an additional nanny for the littles room, to cover Ivy’s shifts in the Petting Zoo during our vacation. I’d laid it all out for her last night, thinking it would make her feel better about leaving with me if we took all of her responsibilities off her plate.

Clenching a tight fist on my lap, I remembered how she rested her chin on her hand, a bemused smile on her lips when I mentioned she’d find out where we were going when we got there. She was so convincing. Seemingly delighted with my surprise.

Ivy played me more effectively than a concealment device, holding the small secret of her intent inside the undisclosed compartment of her heart.

“Almost there, boss.” My friend’s voice was oddly gentle, given the rude way I’d treated him.

“Thank you.” I leaped out of the back seat when we pulled into the parking lot of The Ranch and marched through the front door.

“Where is she?” I snarled at Priscilla, who stood at the reception counter, going over a ledger.

“If you’re referring to Ivy, she’s in the changing area. Should I retrieve her for you?” Unfortunately, at this point in our relationship, my club manager was beyond being intimidated by me. “Or would you prefer to storm into a room full of partially clad women, acting like the true neanderthal who has apparently taken over your body?”

I had to fight my battle of personal restraint not to do just what she sarcastically suggested and march in there myself. Instead, I responded curtly, “I’ll wait here.”

It took an infinite amount of time for Priscilla to return with Ivy, who swallowed hard, lifting her chin to look me in the eye, shoving her shoulders back. If the motion of defiance weren’t so maddening, I’d be proud of her.

When we first met, rebellion wasn’t even on her radar, and here she was blatantly going against my wishes.

“If we don’t leave now, we’ll miss the plane. Is that what you want?” Her lids slipped down over her eyes and her lashes kissed her cheeks at my tone of disapproval. Internally, I shriveled at her contrite expression.

But she followed it with more than an ounce of sass, “You won’t tell me where we’re going or for how long. I don’t feel right just leaving the littles untended.”

Priscilla put a reassuring hand on Ivy’s shoulder. “If you had time before your flight, you could meet the new nanny. The littles already love her. Let Mr. Taylor spoil you for a bit—we’ll handle everything while you’re gone.
