Part II 11(22/23)

lances over his shoulder at the alarm

clock. “This is all a little deep for so early in the morning,”

he mutters.

“I ha一ve made a vow to get to know you better.”

“Did you now, Miss Steele? I thought you wanted to

know if I preferred coffee or tea.” He smirks. “Anyway, I

can think of one way you can get to know me.” He pushes

his hips suggestively against me.

“I think I know you quite well enough that way.” My

voice is haughty and scolding, and it makes him smile more

broadly.

“I don’t think I’ll ever get to know you well enough

that way,” he murmurs. “There are definite advantages to

waking up beside you.” His voice is soft and bonemeltingly

“Don’t you ha一ve to get up?” My voice is low and

at me, grinning.

“Depends if you want to go to New York this

weekend or not—unless you’d like to see him early one

morning this week. I’ll ask Andrea to check on his

schedule and come back to you.”

“Andrea?”

“My PA.”

Oh yes. “One of your many blondes,” I tease him.

“She’s not mine. She works for me. You’re mine.”
