Chapter 7

Kelly had completely fallen apart the night before, and she’d almost ruined everything.

There was no excuse. She hadn’t liked the way they were having sex in bed initially—it was too traditional, too personal, too intimate—so she’d tried to turn it into something kinky, a vague scene out of one of her sexual fantasies so it would feel less emotional, less real.

But it hadn’t worked. Even as he’d tied her up, it had felt deep, real, hard, and then he hadn’t even let himself go and taken what he wanted, the way she’d been expecting from him.

He must have read some of her conflicted feelings and had responded in a way she never would have imagined.

He’d been gentle, tender, giving as much as he took.

And she’d wanted what he’d given, as much as she wanted what he took.

When she’d come, it had felt like more than an orgasm was released.

It was wrong. So wrong in every way that she couldn’t let it happen again. She had to be more careful, or she’d never be able to do what she had come here to do.

All of these thoughts filtered through her mind before she’d even opened her eyes the following morning. As soon as she did, she realized she was still in Caleb’s bed.

They’d slept all night together. They’d never done so before.

She watched him for a minute. The way his dark hair, mingled with a few strands of silver, was rumpled and kinked up over his left temple. The way his bare chest rose and fell, the cover pushed down toward his belly. The way his long fingers gripped the sheets, as if he were under pressure, even in his sleep.

He looked normal—like any other man—when the cool intelligence in his brown eyes and the power in his attitude was masked by sleep.

In some ways, he was just like any other man.

In other ways, he was more so.

He wasn’t completely a monster. She had to admit that to herself after last night. He’d been careful with her, gentle, undeniably sensitive. He’d held her last night and given her what she needed—even though what she needed was the last thing she’d wanted.

He couldn’t know that, though. He’d genuinely tried to be there for her, and there was no way for her to mentally turn it into something else.

It didn’t matter. He didn’t have to be a complete monster to do what he’d done. And a few soft moments weren’t a sign that her mother was wrong about him.

All it meant was that Kelly needed to pick up her pace, or she would never be able to accomplish her purpose.

He trusted her as much now as he would ever trust her, so she needed to get moving. Any more time would only weaken her and allow him a chance to uncover her lies.

Making a sound in his sleep, Caleb rolled over, and Kelly used the shift in position to slip out of the bed without waking him. It was just seven on a Sunday morning, but she couldn’t lie around looking at him anymore.
