CHAPTER THREE

“What’s wrong with you this week?” Morgan asks. “You seem distracted.”

She’s brought me the supply list for her upcoming classes, and I’ve spent the last five minutes trying to find the master list on the computer. I can’t remember the damned file name.

“I’m fine,” I assure her, but Morgan’s too astute for that. She plunks down in the chair across from me and props her elbow on my desk.

“Trouble with Mr. Hunky McBillionaire?”

As promised, I talked to her the morning after my date with Calder. Once she realized who he was, she wanted to know everything. And I mean everything. I haven’t told her the full story, of course—a girl needs to keep her secrets, especially when they involve sex games and mysterious mansions. I didn’t tell her about the way our date ended, either. I’m still trying to process it myself.

I mean, he spent all evening teasing me with his wicked promises, touching me and whispering about the things he would do to me later. He took my panties, for freak’s sake. What the hell happened? What could his financial advisor possibly say to him during that call that would change everything so drastically?

“Everything’s fine with us,” I assure Morgan.

“Mm-hm.” She clearly doesn’t believe me.

Honestly, I don’t want to get into it with her. I’ve been trying to keep myself from thinking about it, since I know that over-analyzing these things only makes them seem worse. He only asked to slow things down. He’s probably just trying to be a gentleman. Maybe he’s right—maybe this will be good for us.

Whatever the reason, I refuse to dwell on it. I’ve poured myself into my work these past three days, trying to concentrate on something productive, but if Morgan’s noticed that something’s wrong then I must not be doing a very good job of hiding my mood.

I finally find the file containing the supply master list, but I can still feel Morgan studying me as I plug in the new numbers.

“He hasn’t called you, has he?” she says.

I’ve been trying not to think about that, either. I mean, no matter what all those dating rules say, it doesn’t matter whether he waits one day or three to call after a date. Couples have lives outside of each other.

And we’re not even officially a couple yet, so none of this matters anyway.

God, I’m a mess.

Morgan leans across the desk and grabs my arm.

“Please, Lily,” she begs. “You went out with Calder-freaking-Cunningham. You’re the only one of us allowed to have scandalous dating adventures. Let me live vicariously through you.” Morgan’s getting married in the spring. In fact, she moved out here this past summer to be with her fiancé, who works at one of the large banks downtown. She hasn’t had the chance to make many friends, which works out for me since I don’t have many either. I work such long hours that I rarely meet anyone outside of the Center.

“Come on,” Morgan teases. She leans forward. “Ooh, was he bad in bed? Wait—does he have a small dick?”

“What? No! No, of course not! His dick is fine.
