Haley had the clarity of mind to sneak out of Nick’s attic lounge in the wee hours of the morning. After awaking with a start to see the first blue-gray rays of dawn filling the attic, she’d gathered her clothes and dressed as quietly as possible, tip-toeing down the stairs so she wouldn’t wake Mr. Sleeping Beauty.

She paused at the top of the stairs, looking back at Nick sleeping so peacefully, so damn gorgeous. She knew this was a smart move. She couldn’t wake up at his side. Leaving in the night made things official. Put them back into their proper place.

The place where she was nothing more than a fling and Nick was nothing more than her rich, intolerably sexy boss.

Haley paged a ride share home first, to shower and change clothes, then made her way to her mother’s house around nine a.m. The plan had been to let Amanda spend the night, but her mother knew that the whole reason behind the sleepover was so Haley could go on a date. She just didn’t know with who.

Haley tapped on the plain front door before pushing into her mother’s small, clapboard one-story. Amanda jabbered happily from the kitchen in a booster seat. Haley’s mother sat at the dinette, sipping a cup of coffee while overseeing Amanda’s breakfast.

“Well, there she is,” Haley’s mother said sharply, lifting a dark brow.

“Mommy!” Amanda squealed.

“Hey,” Haley said with a sigh, leaning in to kiss her mother’s cheek. She took Amanda’s head between her hands and kissed the top of her head. “Here I am indeed.”

“A little late, don’t you think?”

“Mom, this is what we agreed on.” Haley collapsed into a chair, her groin aching. She’d had her legs spread for so long last night—and for so many different sex sessions—that she was surprised she could walk today. “Amanda was going to sleep over. Here I am. It’s not even nine thirty.”

Haley’s mom didn’t say anything else, just took a judgmental sip of coffee. Haley rested her fingertips against her temple.

“So, who did you go out with?”

“Why should I tell you?” Haley smirked.

“Because I’m curious.”

“It wasn’t even a real date,” Haley said, leaning forward to wipe a smear of banana from Amanda’s face. “I was just helping him out.”

“Who?”

“My boss.”

Haley’s mom lowered her head so far to look at her over the rim of her glasses, Haley thought her mom’s eyeballs would pop right out of her head. “Haley.”

“What?”

“You know better than to get mixed up with those rich men.”

Haley sighed and headed to the sink. She busied herself with moistening a paper towel to wipe Amanda’s face. “I’m not mixed up. Thanks for your concern, but you’ve got it all wrong.”

Haley’s mom was quiet as Haley cleaned Amanda up. Once Amanda was out of the booster seat and jumping around the kitchen, her mother took another opportunity to drive the point home.

“You know I’m just looking out for you two, right?” She pulled off her reading glasses, setting aside the newspaper she’d been looking at.
