Chapter Ten

The next three days passed in a dreamy haze. Despite his concerns, Cage stayed with her. When her storage container arrived, he insisted on unloading it. All she had to do was give him directions. Most went into the empty dining room, so she could sort them later, except for the three boxes they unpacked right away. All books, and Cage inspected them with interest.

They did go for the drive she’d wanted, then a spontaneous picnic involving fried chicken and Chinese food. The combination sounded terrible, until they’d picked it all up and Cage took over the driving. They ate on a rocky cliff overlooking the river—she had no idea such views existed in the area. It was stunning, with a perfect starry sky above, the city lights in the distance, and the sound of the water faintly underscoring their meal.

Another stop—to score more condoms—before they made it home and ended up entwined in her bed. She hadn’t been sure about the furniture when she moved in, but she was fairly certain she wanted to hang onto the bed, even if she had to put it in storage when she headed overseas again.

On their fourth day together, they visited home improvement stores. She had an idea for what she wanted to do. She worried that poring over samples would bore him, but he’d disappeared for twenty minutes. He returned with fancy lattes and sandwiches, then sat down and reviewed what she’d already looked at before offering his opinion.

She’d never had so much fun picking out paint colors, wood flooring, carpet, and, finally, new windows and doors. The latter pair would be installed last, after she did the work to the interior. Bathroom fixtures actually proved the easiest—the master bath had the most modern and the two smaller bathrooms needed specific types. By the time they left the home store, her bank account was considerably lighter, and they’d arranged to take delivery by the following Monday.

On their way out, she’d been almost giddy with buyer’s remorse. Thankfully, Cage distracted her. He took her out to dinner at a local Mexican restaurant complete with a Mariachi band that he tipped handsomely to serenade her. From the food to the romantic setting, it went a long way toward soothing her nerves.

Their fifth day landed on a Friday, and Bianca spent half the day nursing a headache while Cage helped her go through her boxes. “We can take a break if you want,” she suggested, rubbing the back of her neck. Weird how everything kind of ached today. Then again, maybe she’d been overdoing it. But she hated pain medication and how loopy it left her.

“If you want,” Cage said, glanced at her. A tight line formed between his brows as he studied her. “You’re in pain.”

“I’ve got a headache,” she admitted. “Maybe it’s the dust off the boxes or the fact that we’ve been doing this for hours.” She really had no idea what she’d collected over the years. Most of the
