EMILY

With a belly full of the most delicious shrimp scampi I’d ever had, I dipped into the bathroom attached to Whip’s primary bedroom. His room was masculine and held the scent of clean laundry mixed with his cologne.

Despite my teasing, I didn’t really expect to see milk crate end tables and a mattress on the floor, but I definitely did not anticipate seeing how effortlessly put together his home was. Admittedly, the first time I’d been in his home, I hadn’t really taken it in—we’d been too busy tearing our clothes off.

But now that I had the opportunity to really look around, it screamed masculine coziness. In the primary suite, the headboard of his bed was a work of art with its wood grains and elegant lines. It stood as the centerpiece beneath the vaulted ceiling lined with heavy wood beams. Muted tones and carefully chosen textiles created an atmosphere of quiet strength, while the rhythmic creak of a ceiling fan echoed the coastal breeze that filtered through the open windows.

I inwardly groaned at the thought of my own budget linens and haphazardly chosen duvet. It was fine but certainly not curated like Whip’s house appeared to be. While I brushed my teeth, I made a mental note to update my bedding on the off chance Whip and I spent some time at my apartment.

Looking around the gleaming, oversize bathroom vanity, I doubted that was necessary. Going to my place would also mean risking someone seeing his truck and finding out about us—something I was still unwilling to do.

This was supposed to be fun. Casual. I couldn’t let the sexy way his eyes darkened when he saw me derail my entire life.

You can do casual.

I stared at my reflection and fluffed my hair before adjusting my boobs in my top. All I needed to do was focus on having fun, and sex with Whip was a whole lot of fun.

I stopped at the doorway to the bathroom and looked into his room. He’d lit a few candles and pulled back the navy sheets on his bed. Whip was removing his watch and placing it on a tray on his dresser when he turned to me.

My heart stuttered.

Casual. Casual. Casual.

I swallowed hard and offered a sultry smile before closing the space between us.
