Chapter Sixteen

Cam stirred at her usual six and found Lauren sprawled on her stomach, one arm slung across Cam’s middle. She’d half expected Lauren to be up before sunrise, a tornado of tackle-the-day energy. The fact that Lauren had an off switch proved oddly reassuring. Or maybe it was something about seeing her so at peace. Either way, Cam liked being able to study her without fear of being caught staring.

Unable to resist, she ran her fingers through Lauren’s hair. It might be cliché, but she was such a sucker for filling her hands with long, thick hair. It was the kind of gesture that could be tender or demanding, gentle or possessive. Lauren liking the latter had been a surprise. A damn pleasant one at that.

Cam continued stroking. Lauren didn’t open her eyes, but she turned her head and let out a contented hum. Cam kissed the top of her head. “Good morning.”

Lauren smiled, eyes still closed. “Good morning.”

“I don’t want to chase you out of here, but I need to get ready for work. You’re welcome to stay as late as you want.”

That seemed to push her wide-awake and alert button. She opened her eyes and looked around. “What time is it?”

Cam chuckled. “Early still. Barely six. I need to be at work early today.”

Lauren rolled to her side. “Wow. I hardly ever sleep that late.”

“And the truth comes out.” Cam hadn’t meant to say that out loud, but apparently her guard was down.

Lauren propped herself on an elbow and gave Cam a curious look. “What does that mean?”

Hopefully, Lauren would take it as a compliment. “You always seem to be bursting with energy. I think I was surprised to wake up before you.”

Lauren trained a finger down her arm. “Well, someone did a pretty bang-up job of tiring me out last night.”

Or that. That was good, too. “I see. So multiple orgasms is the way to get you to relax?”

Lauren considered for a moment, making Cam wonder if she’d overstepped. But then, with a perfectly serious expression on her face, she nodded. “Yes.”

“Good to know.” Cam kissed her again, this time on the mouth. “I’m rather sorry now that I have to get up.”

“Don’t be. I do, too.” She sat up and the sleepy, sexy Lauren disappeared. All-business Lauren was back in full force.

“Would you like to take a shower here? You’re welcome to.”

She was already out of bed and pulling on clothes. “Thanks for the offer, but I’m good. Since I didn’t bring clothes, it’ll be easier at my place.”

Cam didn’t have time for a shared shower that might lead to more, but it didn’t prevent a small pang of disappointment. “Of course.”

Now fully dressed, with the exception of the shirt she’d taken off in the kitchen, Lauren came and stood at the edge of the bed. She leaned down, kissing Cam just long enough to make her departure seem unhurried. “I had a really great time last night.”

Understatement of the century. “Same.”

“Does that mean we
