Chapter Seven

Lynn woke to the smell of fresh coffee, mere seconds before her alarm clock sounded. Cracking her eyes, she spotted Jag trying to balance a plate and mug while attempting to hit the snooze button.

He’d brought her breakfast in bed, and the thoughtful gesture drew a happy smile to her face. “Good morning,” she greeted as she stretched before sitting up. The movement caused the sheet to fall to her waist, exposing her bare breasts.

“Sweetheart, if you plan to leave that bed today, I’d advise not tempting me,” he growled, dropping a kiss atop her head as he handed over her coffee.

When he rose, Lynn thought she heard… “Did you just purr?”

An almost bashful smile curved his lips, and Lynn’s heart turned over. “My jaguar has never been this content. Now that we’ve claimed you, he’s finally relaxing some. So, yes, it was a purr you heard. As long as you’re happy, so are we.”

“I’m very happy.” Stealing another glance at the clock, Lynn groaned. She didn’t want to go in to work today. She wanted to stay here and laze around with Jag. Well, maybe there are a few other things I’d rather do with him, she thought with an inner grin. “It’s Thursday, so I’ll be doing ultrasounds again all morning. Which one of you gets to hang out in my office today?” she asked, taking a sip of the sweetened coffee and eyeing the fruit on the nightstand.

“I want to check with Mason again, maybe scour the woods with him. Liam will be with you until lunch. Will that be okay?” Jag sat on the edge of the bed before placing his big hand on her thigh. “I need to do everything I can to prevent anything like this from happening again. I can’t lose you, Lynn.”

“You won’t. I’m tougher than I look.”

At least, he was smart enough not to call her out on that last statement. Yes, she was tough by human standards, but against a shifter, it was like comparing a rock to an overripe banana. She’d get squashed.

“I understand,” she said. “I’m sure Liam can entertain himself until lunch. I’m hoping to have enough time to order some subs. Will you be back by then?”

“I’m not sure, but I’ll try. Want me to call when I head back? Maybe, I can grab your lunch on the way.”

“Nah, we can just order. It’s easier since I never know exactly when I’ll stop to eat.” Lynn set down her mug then flipped back the covers to stand. “I need to get a shower before I head in,” she said, giving her hips an extra sway as she walked across the room. Stopping in the doorway to the bathroom, she glanced over her shoulder to find Jag’s eyes glued to her ass. “You want to help me wash my back?”

Lynn giggled as he nodded and rose to follow her. She’d be late to work, but with the wicked gleam in Jag’s eyes, there was no way she’d say no to whatever he had in mind.
