Chapter 23

Isabelle

I roll over, and the sheets under me slip. Ugh. Someone needs to tell Luke that satin sheets are for porn movies and not real life. My hair sticks to my face with static electricity from the material, and I sit up in annoyance. I pull it back into a ponytail and swipe it through my hands to tame the flyaway strands. Tristan’s been in my head asking where I am, but I’m ignoring him. He can suffer a bit now that I’m on my own.

I glance over at the naked man next to me. He’s kicked off the covers, and they’re tangled in his feet. He’s asleep on his stomach, displaying a round, hard rump that tempts me to take a bite out of one of the sumptuous globes. I snort at that thought, because I need to keep my teeth to myself.

I climb out of bed to use the bathroom. My muscles cramp in rebellion from my workout yesterday, and that’s not all that’s sore. Luke was right about that nineteen-year-old sex drive and his ability to last all night. No wonder he’s sound asleep. When I’m done in the bathroom, I wander to the kitchen in search of coffee. I pray the opulence of his living quarters extends to the pantry.

“Thank goodness.” I spy a one-cup coffee maker on the counter, and after opening two cabinets, I find the cartridges. The cover of the machine clicks as I shut it and push the on button. While it hums, I reach for the fridge door handle and check inside. Things are looking up, because I find plenty of eggs, cheese, and sausage.

Pans rattle in the cupboard as I remove two large skillets, and when I clunk them down on the cooktop, Luke speaks, startling me. “A naked woman in my kitchen cooking must mean I’m in heaven.”

I glance over at him, and damn it, he makes me smile. The goofy I’m-so-in-love kind I’m sure looks like Annie’s for my brother. “Scrambled eggs with cheese and sausage.”

“How about toast, too? I’ll make it.”

Luke is not naked, but that’s probably a good thing. The sight of his chest is enough to get my blood pumping. After he drops bread into the toaster, he comes to stand behind me. I lean back into him as he slides his hands under my breasts to cup them. He says, “This has to be my favorite position. Your luscious ass cradling my dick before I bend you over and—” He lets out a low growl that reverberates through my body as if I’m purring.

I arch back and contemplate how to save breakfast. My voice is raspy when I say, “Let me plate up the food, and then let’s go see how strong your table is.”

The toaster pops as my spatula scrapes up eggs. Luke retrieves the bread and follows me to the dining room, where he lays me out like a meal. By the time we get to the eggs, they’re cold. I swallow a bite as Tristan communicates with me in an alpha tone I have to answer.
