oing to get to work?
Christian is sipping coffee at the breakfast bar. Mrs.
Jones is in the kitchen making pancakes and bacon.
“You look lovely,” Christian murmurs. Wrapping an
arm around me, he kisses me under my ear. Out of the
corner of my eye, I catch Mrs. Jones’s smile. I flush.
“Good morning, Miss Steele,” she says as she places
pancakes and bacon in front of me.
