Shay startled awake. It took a moment for her to realize where she was. She smiled at the weight and the warmth of the man behind her. His arm, even in sleep, held her tucked against him. She wondered if he’d moved and that’s what woke her up. She heard something outside the closed bedroom door and raised herself on an elbow, glancing toward the door. The navy drapes over the bedroom window blocked out any light, and it took a moment for her eyes to adjust.

There was a low grunt from Michael, and then warm lips pressed against her bare shoulder. “It’s early. Go back to sleep.”

“I heard something.”

“You could hear a pin drop. It’s probably just Atticus getting a drink of water.” He lifted his arm, pressed a button, and the face of his watch lit up. “It’s seven.” He yawned and dragged a hand down his handsome face before rolling her into his arms. Burying his face in the crook between her neck and shoulder, he kissed the sensitive spot, making her squirm. “You know, this is the first morning I haven’t wanted to get out of bed in I don’t know how long.”

She placed her hand on the back of his head, running her fingers through his thick, dark hair before pressing his face back to where it had been. “Maybe you could stay a few minutes—”

There was a knock on the door, and it cracked open. “Michael, what were you thinking leaving all the food out? Michael?” The door opened wide to reveal Maura Gallagher.

Shay’s heart slowed, its beat languid, her brain and body either unwilling or unable to respond to her commands. She knew she had to do something but had no idea what to do or how to do it.

“What are you still doing in bed? You’re always up at six. I wanted to talk to you about yesterday’s little misunderstanding,” his mother continued, and Michael snapped out of his frozen state. He grabbed the covers and was about to push Shay beneath them when his mother’s eyes, apparently adjusting to the lack of light, went wide. “You! Michael, what were you thinking letting that…that thief into your bed? You’re an FBI agent. You’ll lose your job over her, and then where will you be? Get her out of here! Get her out of my home now!”
