Chapter Six

Joy

I wake up to an unfamiliar clicking noise, and it takes me a second to place the sound as fingers flying over a computer’s keyboard.

Nick is the first thing I see, which is truly a sight to behold as the man is all lean muscles and tattoos. Who would have guessed that beneath that suit is an Adonis body? My fingers itch to touch the wide shoulders and firm pecs that I didn’t get a chance to explore yesterday.

Christ, is that drool on my chin? I reach up and swipe my hand over my chin, breathing out a sigh of relief when it comes back dry.

The second thing I notice is the computer on his lap and how his intense eyes don’t shift from it even for a second. His long fingers dance over the keyboard without a moment of pause.

I watch him discreetly, studying his straight nose and those lips that are capable of eliciting so much pleasure. Those intense blue eyes stay locked on the screen, and I don’t dare interrupt him, choosing to revel in the raw masculine beauty that this man exudes.

“Did you get enough sleep?” he asks gruffly, his eyes shooting to mine.

“I did,” I respond, my cheeks heating at being caught ogling the man, but can he blame me? He is a fine specimen. The finest of all.

“I hope I didn’t wake you.” He slaps the laptop closed and fixes his full attention on me. “I tried going to work in a different room, so I wouldn’t disturb you, but you kept calling out for me in your sleep.”

Oh, God!

How embarrassing!

I barely know this man. Surely he is joking, and there is no way I actually cried out for him in my sleep, right? Right?

Nick’s stoic face convinces me that he is not joking. He doesn’t look like he’s made a joke once in his life, and now, I am doomed. I want to ask what else I said in my sleep, but sometimes, ignorance is bliss.

Even so, the mortification from his words is enough to send me burrowing back under the covers, but only for a second before they are tugged down.

“I liked it,” the cruel man says, his gorgeous blue eyes staring down at me. “I liked hearing you call out for me every second I was away. I liked the way you would reach out to me in your sleep, grabbing my arm and cuddling it to your chest.”

Kill. Me. Now.

“Do you want to know what else I liked about sleeping next to you?”

I doubt it’s worse than crying out to him in my sleep. God, I’ll never recover from that. “You don’t have to tell me—”

“But I want to,” Nick says, placing the laptop on the nightstand without taking his eyes off me. “I want you to know everything.”

I suck in a sharp breath when he slips his hand under the covers, cupping my breasts over the shirt. “Oh, Daddy.” I whimper in need when he rubs my nipples through the soft material.
