Chapter 10

Miranda woke up to hot breath and licks. As she slowly opened her eyes, she came face-to-face with Halo who was grinning and wagging his tail.

“Are you my wakeup call?”

“Woof.” The one word delivered gently as if he understood what she’d asked.

“Where’s Cam?” Halo jumped off the bed and left the room, making her laugh.

Sitting up against the pillows, she finger-combed her hair and thought about last night. Her cheeks grew warm just thinking about how ballsy she’d been. He’d said that maybe she just needed the right person. It sure seemed to be that way.

Jeremiah, her boyfriend in college had begged her to be more aggressive, but he was just ‘meh.’ Probably ‘bagging’ a senator’s daughter was a notch on his belt. He figured they’d get married, but there was no way in hell that was going to happen. The first thing she’d done after graduation was to break up with him. Sometimes she wondered if that had been her real motivation for joining the Deliver Hope Ministries. It had certainly gotten her out of his circle.

While she was still contemplating that earlier decision, Halo came back dragging Cam with him.

“You called, Sunshine? I’d hoped you were going to sleep in.”

“Then you need to have a word with our furry friend, here. He was breathing on my face and licking me. I thought it was you, then I realized the breath was better.”

“What?” He jumped on the bed, laughing, and grabbed one of the other pillows and smacked her on top of the head. Nothing hard and it cracked her up. Reaching behind her she got up on her knees and they had a full-fledged pillow fight until one of them split, and sent feathers flying everywhere.

Halo ran back and forth at the end of the bed, barking and jumping for the floating feathers. When he’d decided he’d been left out long enough he jumped onto the bed and tackled Cam.

It was the funniest thing Miranda had seen in a long time. Dog and handler were covered in white feathers and the dog had Cam pinned. Every time he barked, the feathers would be disturbed and float back into the air. She was laughing so hard that she could barely breathe. Her stomach muscles cramped, and she fell onto her side next to Cam, still giggling.

Halo leaned over and licked her face. It made her laugh even harder and sputter when his tongue slipped into her mouth. “Ugh, gross, Halo. You’re as bad as Cam. Always trying to get your tongue in my mouth.”

“Except you like mine,” Cam said and waggled his eyebrows. She couldn’t disagree with that. She needed to brush her teeth so she could have another one of those toe-curling kisses.

“I’ll be right back. And keep that dog out of the bathroom.”

“Yes, ma’am. Would you like some coffee?”

“Oh, yeah. That would be wonderful.”

“Here or in the kitchen?”

“Kitchen might be a better idea. I don’t like feathers in my coffee.”

“Good point.”

Brushing her teeth, turned into a shower and washing her hair.
