Chapter 14

Halle

Halle woke up feeling as if she was floating on a cloud. The sun was peeking in through the thick white curtains that lined Grayson’s bedroom windows, and she was nestled under the fluffiest comforter she had ever felt in her life. It really was like being cradled by a cloud. She rolled over to find Grayson—

He was gone.

The bed was empty.

She frowned, sitting up, pausing as she did so to relish the pleasant aches in her body. It had been way too long since she’d awoken feeling like this.

But where had Grayson gone?

Maybe he was getting breakfast for them?

She felt a smile play at the corners of her mouth. That was exactly the kind of thing he would do. He always seemed to feel like he needed to impress her. She wished she could tell him how unnecessary that was. It was obvious that he was used to trying to impress the people in his life, but Halle didn’t care about his money or his jet or his ability to expose her to fine food. She liked him because he was a nice person.

Ironically, it was the one thing he didn’t seem to know about himself.

She got out of bed, walked to the curtains, and pulled them back. She hadn’t had the chance to see the view from this window last night—it had been too dark by the time they’d gotten to his house, and when they’d gone up to the bedroom, she had had other things firmly on her mind. But now she took the opportunity to look out over the wealthiest part of La Vega.

The houses here were vast and sprawling and utterly gorgeous. She hadn’t gotten a good look at Grayson’s house from the outside, but she was stunned to realize that the home she was in was just as nice as the ones she was looking at now, if not more so. Somehow, this was even more impressive than seeing his plane. She didn’t like to admit to being impressed by shallow things, but she had to confess that this place was knocking her socks off.

And speaking of her socks…

She hunted around the room and found the dress she’d been wearing last night, along with her undergarments. They’d been thrown all over the place in the heat of the moment. She pulled the dress back on and slipped everything else into her purse. Feeling a little risqué, she headed out of the bedroom to look for Grayson.

She found the kitchen easily enough, but he wasn’t there. There were, however, signs that he had been there recently. There was a pour-over carafe of coffee that was still half full, and a pot with a little bit of water sitting on the stove. She went to the pot and held her hand about an inch away. It was warm, but not hot.

So he made coffee…but he didn’t want to wait for me to come have it with him?

Maybe he had assumed that she would know to take some and come find him.
