CHAPTER TEN

Mia

I woke up in the morning with my head on Logan’s chest, breathing in the warm, male scent of his skin. I could hear the steady thumping of his heart beat in my ear and a light buzzing sound coming from somewhere in the bedroom.

I lifted my head, trying to figure out what it was, but it stopped before I was even fully awake. I sat up slowly, trying not to wake Logan up just yet. I needed a moment to get my bearings.

I blinked as I took in the bedroom around me.

It was morning, and sunlight streamed through the parted curtains. I didn’t pay much attention to the room last night, too distracted by my dirty thoughts of having sex with my boss, now my fiancé, the moment I saw his bed.

It was a big space with dark, heavy furniture, including the four poster bed we’d slept in. There was a TV on the dresser and a walk-in closet with the door ajar. Our clothes were scattered all around, and as my eyes landed on my pants, I realized what the buzzing sound was. My phone was on vibrate.

I slid out of the bed and checked my pants pockets until I found the device. I had four missed calls and even more text messages. All from my mom. She must have been so concerned about me when I didn’t come home. It had been a while since I’d lived with my mother that I’d forgotten that she’d probably worry about my whereabouts.

I sighed and grabbed my clothes, scrambling to get dressed before I called her back. I felt too exposed and vulnerable, naked like this. Finally, I walked into the hallway and dialed her number, feeling like a teenager that had broken curfew.

She picked up right away. “Hello? Mia?”

She sounded worried, and I felt guilty. “Yeah, Mom. It’s me.”

“Oh, thank God.” Relief infused her voice. “Are you okay? Where are you? You didn’t come home last night.”

I smiled a little. “I know. I just…I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.”

“You weren’t in an accident?”

“No, not at all,” I assured her. “I just stayed the night with a friend. I’m sorry, I should have called or texted to let you know.”

“A friend?” she repeated, but she didn’t ask who it was and I was grateful. It wasn’t something I wanted to explain over the phone. “Are you sure you’re alright?”

“Promise.” I injected a lightness to my voice to help convince her. “I’ll talk to you later okay? I’ve got to go now.”

We ended the call, and I checked the time on my phone. Cursing under my breath, I quietly walked back inside the bedroom, trying to remember where my shoes had ended up. It was later in the morning than I realized and I was going to be late for work.

Work. My boss.

Oh my God, I had sex with my boss.

I pressed my hands to my warm cheeks and swallowed back a groan. What was I thinking?

That was the thing .
