Seeing Lacey’s expression, Bronson couldn’t help himself. He slipped his arms around her from behind, so his front was pressed against her back. His cheek rested against the top of her head. She didn’t lean into him, but she didn’t pull away either.

It might be his fault Crystal was moving, but surely Lacey could see the woman would be better off in her new home? And when Lacey moved out of the Baxter, she could live somewhere that didn’t leak, or smell, or grow mold. Somewhere the electricity would stay on all the time. Where she’d be safe.

The sooner that happened the better, not that she’d appreciate it if he told her. Instead he dropped his face so his nose was in her hair. What was it about her scent that turned him on? She wasn’t wearing expensive perfume, lotions or sprays. Just the smell of soap and skin, faintly bookish from having spent the day in the library.

Every time he set foot in a library from now on, he’d probably get a boner.

She sighed, relaxing a little in his arms. “I thought we weren’t going to do this again.”

“I’m not doing anything.”

“Really?” She angled her head around to shoot him a sideways look.

“Want some dinner?” He nodded at the foil-wrapped package on the kitchen bench. “The power’s been out all day, so I had it delivered.”

“Of course you did. Snap your fingers and you can have anything you want.” She eased out of his grip and turned to face him. “Don’t suppose you got someone to come and fix the roof?”

“I did, actually.” And when her eyes widened, added, “But don’t get too excited. It’s a temporary job that won’t last long. A lot of sealant that’ll only stop the worst of the leaks.”

“Just enough to make your stay more comfortable.”

“Speaking of a comfortable stay, it’s a little strange that all the other apartments had their electricity restored.”

“Did they?” Her cheeks went pink, and he bit back a smile. Keeping the power off is exactly what he’d do in her place, so he could hardly blame her. Besides, all the candles he’d set up looked rather romantic. Perfect for another seduction. They might have agreed last night’s lovemaking would be a one-off event, but why not stretch it to two nights? As long as they were clear it wouldn’t change anything with regards to their bet, he couldn’t see the harm.

Opening the foil-wrapped package, she bent to sniff its contents. “It smells good.”

He glanced at the small, cracked formica table. Several candles flickered on it, but even those couldn’t make it look appealing. “Let’s have a picnic.”

“A picnic?”

He took their food into the living room and spread a blanket in front of the fire. After throwing several pillows and cushions onto the blanket, they ate sprawled on the floor, with the flames dancing in front of them and the warmth of the flames matched only by Lacey’s smile.

“You did some reading today?” She nodded to the neat pile he’d made with the folded-up camping bed and his clothes.
