The time seemed right. For once I was going to do the brave and noble step with Lukas, at least that was my good intention. Until I woke up spooned up against a warm, naked body. I freaked the fuck out instead. I planned to tell him my concerns and doubts about returning home. How I was a little uncomfortable, more along the lines of scared shitless about going back to my house alone. All those thoughts disappeared and I quickly got the heck out of Dodge.

Disbelief peppered with astonishment at the predicament I find myself in. Not once have I, up until today, woken up in the arms of a man. I’ve been extremely careful to vacate the premises once the deed was done. Damn, that seems so clinical. No strings attached. It’s hard to believe I actually slept.

On the plane ride home, I had an epiphany, lightning struck and penetrated layers worth of years of stubbornness. I’m not upset I fell asleep with Lukas, only shocked. My body recognizes what my mind and heart keep denying. I belong with him. He’s mine.

It doesn’t matter there’s a lunatic waiting in the dark. He’ll protect me.

Regardless of the situation I find myself in at home, I’m falling hard for Lukas with an intensity so powerful I’ve lost the motivation to struggle. Match game. I close my eyes, clasping my hands tightly together. I recall the way I left him. His sexy, naked body stretched out across the bed, a sheet draped over his lower region that showcased the eight-pack abs made to be licked and savored. It was evident he worked out from the bulging, sleek muscles adorning him. Everything about Lukas is stare worthy.

“Where do you want to go first, Miss Sage, office or home?” Carl breaks into my rambling thoughts.

I glance up into the rearview mirror, staring into a pair of wise eyes.

“The office, please, Carl,” I return. “I need to check in with Nick and make sure the clinic is running smoothly.”

“Yes, ma’am. You’ve been away from the View for some time now. Catchin’ up on your routine is paramount. I’ll drop you off and run a few errands, then come back ‘round and get you. Thirty minutes long enough, or would an hour work better?”

“An hour would be fine, Carl. Thank you again for the lift. It’s a darn shame my car is still in the shop, especially since it was only in there for a routine service. You would think the mechanic would be finished with my baby. I’m sure you have better things to do than babysit me.”

He chuckles. “Well, now I can’t tell you why your baby isn’t ready, but if I were a betting man, I would bet it was hard to find a part, and ’65 Shelby parts don’t grow on trees, little lady. You know as well as I do those classic parts are really hard to find.”

“Maybe you’re right. The mechanic I took it to specializes in older model Mustangs.
