Three hours later, Scarlet let Alex pamper her. Hot tub at his apartment with a beer, followed by a long back-rub that turned into a full-body massage. And food. Lots of food.

“I’m going to wake you up every two hours,” Alex said. “You may have a concussion. I shouldn’t have let you drink that beer.”

“It was only two.” She kissed him. “I’m glad it’s over.” For now.

“Why do you have that tone?” His thumbs pressed into her calves. God, that felt good.

“What tone?”

“That thinking tone.” His hands stopped.

“I don’t. Keep working those fingers.”

“Like this?” His fingers dipped between her legs and she groaned.

“That’s good.”

“Just good?”

“It’s getting better.”

He kissed the side of her neck. “I’m glad you’re okay.”

“Me, too.”

“Scarlet—I take you as you are.”

Her heart skipped a beat. “Do you know what you’re saying?”

“Yes. I do.”

Alex rolled her over so he was facing her. He stared at her until he caught her gaze, then leaned down and kissed her on her lips. Lightly. Warmly. “I know it’s not going to be easy, but when you walked out this morning, I knew I couldn’t just let you leave for good. I like you in my life. I don’t want to change you. I just want you to be careful. Doubly careful, because you have someone—other than your partner, other than your brother—who cares what happens to you.”

“Alex—I—that means a lot to me.” More than she could say. No other man she’d dated—even Matt, who she had once planned to marry—had let her be herself. They’d all tried to change her.

And maybe because Alex wasn’t going to push her to be someone she wasn’t, maybe she would be willing to bend just a little bit.

“Except for one little thing,” he said.

“Oh?”

“I’d love to see you in that little black dress again.” He smiled wickedly.

She wrapped her arms around his neck. “Maybe someday you will.”
