Chapter Eleven

Kara was awakened by a gentle shake of her shoulder.

“I think he wants you,” Warren said, handing her a red-faced, fussing Aiden.

“Oh, wow. I can’t believe I didn’t wake up. I always wake up when he cries.”

Warren smiled. “You were dead to the world, so I took him back to your room and changed him before I brought him back. Not much else I can do for him, huh?”

Kara stared at him, trying to take in the fact that Warren had changed a diaper. “Thanks.”

“No problem.” Warren walked away, disappearing into his closet.

Taking advantage of the moment, she got Aiden settled into nursing and then reached for her phone. She groaned when she saw that it was only six o’clock and that her battery was almost dead. She needed to get it charging.

A silly thing really, since she rarely called or texted anyone. She’d gotten her own phone after her divorce, and besides using it to make doctor appointments or order pizza, she’d mostly just used it as a way to entertain herself through the long, lonely hours. She had a million Pinterest boards that ranged from baby and single-mom boards to recipes, decorating, and fashion—all things she wanted to do in that illusive someday she dreamed about after Aiden was older. But her favorites were her travel boards. The places she wanted to go, and the things she wanted to do. Those were both dreams and a form of self-torture. She hadn’t believed she’d ever be able to travel anytime in the near future. Yet now, here she was, about to get on a yacht and travel to Cabo. It boggled her mind.

Even though it would likely drain her battery, she went to that board and looked through those pins, smiling a little at the thought that she would soon be able to swim in those unreal, turquoise-blue waters.

Out of habit, she surfed around to see the latest news headlines and came to an abrupt halt when she saw one about her and Warren getting married, complete with pictures. Mother. “Warren, we have a problem.”

He came striding out of the closet, almost at a run. “What’s wrong?”

Kara looked up to tell him, but her words caught in her throat at the sight of him in a crisp pair of chinos and nothing else. She hadn’t seen him shirtless since he was a teenager, and well, he had definitely grown up since then.

“Kara?”

Right. “My mom. She didn’t wait to share about the wedding. It’s out.”

Warren’s jaw tightened. “Right. Well, let’s get on the road while we still can.” He strode over to a panel on the wall and pressed a button.

“Yes, Mr. Drake?” a male voice said.

“We need to leave sooner than planned. Within 30 minutes, if we can make it happen.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Anybody hanging around the premises?”

“A few paparazzi, yes. You’ve seen that everything was leaked early.”

“Yes. Keep me posted if anyone else shows up, Abe.”

Aiden had finished nursing, so Kara put him down on the soft carpet with a couple of toys.
