Hours later, Toni was barely hanging on to consciousness with a full stomach and a very relaxed body that Henry had teased and seduced to the point of spontaneous combustion before he put her out of her sexual misery.

He pulled on his boxer shorts and left the bedroom. She heard him walk to the door and whistle for Earl, who galloped into the house.

“Shhh,” he whispered to the dog. “You have to be quiet, okay?”

The dog’s excited paws tapped on her hardwood floor.

“Okay, go lie down. Stay.”

Earl gave a low woof, and Shelby meowed from under the bed.

Toni poked her head over the side and saw the cat. “He’s in the house now. What are you going to do with him?”

Shelby stared at her with narrowed eyes. I could say the same thing about you, human.

“Okay, we’ve let a dog and a large man into the house.” She glanced at the clock. “It’s after midnight, so I don’t think—”

“Are you talking to the cat?” Henry leaned in the doorway, arms crossed over his bare chest, smiling in amusement.

“I am.” Deal with it.

He climbed into the bed and immediately drew her into his arms, wrapping her up with blankets, a warm hug, and a contagious sense of calm. “Don’t worry. Earl is sleeping by the fireplace.” He yawned deeply. “He won’t bother her in here.”

“Oh. Okay.” She snuggled back into his chest and was nearly asleep when she heard her phone buzzing.

“Is that you or me?” Henry asked.

“Me, I think.” She opened her eyes and looked at the name flashing on her screen. “Nico?”

She sat up. He wouldn’t be calling if it wasn’t an emergency. Toni answered the phone. “What’s wrong?”

“It’s Marissa.” Nico’s voice broke. “She’s at the hospital, Toni. Can you come? Someone broke into her house and beat her up pretty bad. The doctors aren’t sure what her condition is yet, but they put her in a coma because there’s a skull fracture and—”

“We’re coming.” She was already shoving Henry out of the bed. “We’ll be there as soon as we can.”
