followed me out. He’s looking toward the Audi SUV in
dismay.
I turn and climb into the back, and there he sits—
Christian Grey—wearing his gray suit, no tie, his white
shirt open at the collar. His gray eyes are glowing.
My mouth dries. He looks glorious except he’s
scowling at me. Oh no!
“When did you last eat?” he snaps as Taylor closes the
