Kayla woke slowly, blinking against the sunlight streaming through the windows. For a moment, she was disoriented, confused by the unfamiliar room. Then she felt the warmth of Maddock's body curled around hers and remembered.

A smile curved her lips as she snuggled deeper into his embrace. Last night had been beyond anything she could have imagined. The intimacy they'd shared went far beyond the physical.

Maddock stirred behind her, his arms tightening around her waist as he pressed a sleepy kiss to the back of her neck. “Morning, Sunshine.”

“Good morning.” She rolled over to face him, tracing the lines of his rugged face. “How did I get so lucky?”

“I ask myself that every day I get to be with you.” He kissed her, slow and deep.

Just then, her phone rang on the nightstand, the harsh sound shattering the moment. With a sigh, Kayla reached over to grab it, expecting to see Emma's name on the caller ID. She didn’t have any patients on the schedule for the Saturday morning, but emergencies and births happened randomly and Emma had the on-call phone this weekend.

Instead, the display read “unknown caller.” Her heart dropped.

“I’m not sure, but it's probably him.”

Maddock's eyes darkened with anger as he snatched the phone from her hand. “Don't worry, I'll handle this.”

“Maddock! Wait—” Her protest fell on deaf ears. She’d discussed with Paisley how domestic violence perpetrators liked control and attention, and she’d been doing everything in her power to ignore him. Which was why he’d escalated with the frequency of his calls.

Before she could protest, he answered the call, his tone icy. “Who is this?”

Kayla's pulse raced as she strained to hear Zach's reply. She visibly relaxed when a female voice was heard coming from the other end of the line.

“No, we don’t need an extended car warranty.” Maddock angrily hit the end button on her cell phone and handed it back.

“Maddock, you can’t snatch my phone out of my hand and answer it. Domestic violence perpetrators want control and they want the attention and satisfaction the fear of their victims gives them. Ignoring him is the best course of action.”

“You’ve been ignoring him for weeks now, Kayla. He’s not going away until someone makes him.”

“Please, just leave it alone for now.”

“I don’t like it. I don’t like it at all.”

“Can we please talk about something else? Anything else? I’m so over him controlling our lives.”

“Yeah, Sunshine. But instead of talking…” He rolled on top of her and lowered his head into a deep kiss. “I can think of some other things I’d like to do with you.”
