CHAPTER 16

Liz rolled toward Charles and snuggled against his warm body. “Damn, this bed is too big. Sometimes I feel like I’m sleeping alone,” she said.

“The decorator thought I should have a king. What did I know?” He kissed her sleep-flushed face. “Good morning, princess. If you don’t like this bed, I’m sure I can have a new one delivered today so you don’t get lost under the covers. Or we can chop it in half.”

Liz and Charles had been inseparable since the night they met at Kate’s. Because he owned an apartment that was huge by New York standards, they spent their nights there instead of in Liz’s cramped studio.

“That’s sweet, but you don’t have to do that,” she said, running her fingers through his silky chest hair.

“I want you to be happy, especially when you’re in my bed.” Charles grinned at her.

“Never happier, Mr. Morrison.” She swung her long legs to the floor and wrapped a light blue silk robe around her body. “I don’t have to work today, so I’m going to make breakfast for you. It may take some time, so if you want to go back to sleep or shower, feel free.” She leaned toward him, giving him a view of her breasts. “And then there are things I want to ask you about Drew.”

“Drew? What’s he done?”

“He’s only made my best friend fall in love with him, so I want to know more about him.”

“I don’t think that’s any of our business.”

“Oh Sugar Pie, that’s where you’re wrong. And if you won’t talk willingly, I have my ways…”

He yelped when she pinched his nipple and then turned to sashay toward the kitchen. The robe did little to cover the delicious body he knew was beneath it and he watched, shaking his head in amazement at how lucky he was to have this woman in his bed and in his life. When she was out of sight, he closed his eyes to rest for a moment.

An hour later, Liz woke him with a kiss on his nose. “Come on, sleepyhead. Food awaits.”

“Come here,” he pleaded, reaching for her hand, but she pulled away.

“Oh, no. I worked really hard and you’re going to pull on some sweats and come to the table.”

“Yes, ma’am,” he said, already having picked up some of her Southern speech patterns. “You’re bossy today, but if what you made tastes half as good as it smells, I won’t protest.”

“Good, then everyone’s happy today. Now come eat before it gets cold.”

Once they’d downed the fried eggs, biscuits and country ham, Charles leaned back and patted his stomach. “Thank you. That was delicious, but you’re going to make me fat if you keep this up.”

“As long as you keep that up, you’ll work it off,” she teased, her eyes focused on the region below his waist. “But that will have to wait until later. It’s a bad idea to exercise on a full stomach.”

He raised one dark brow, his eyes smiling mischievously. “What did you have in mind while we digest?”

“Well…there’s Drew.
