Her front door slammed

“I’s spread by the tiet to your room or your punishment will be severe”

Zach’s voice made her smile She placed the phone on her dresser No way in hell would she let Chris ruin this night for her Whatever garbage he’d sent her could wait Forever, if she had her way

As fast as possible, she slipped out of her robe and dashed to the bed Flopping back on a pile of pillows, she s seconds before Zach appeared in the door

Part of her had wanted to disobey his orders and find out exactly what he viewed as punishment But that could wait for another time

Another time Toni stared at hiive into the fact that this would be occurring again No matter that she knew it shouldn’t

“Fuck me,” he said, and her core clenched at the raw appreciation in his eyes He stalked toward the bed like a predator ready to pounce Tossing a strip of condoroaned “You ready for this, baby?”

Toni winked “Bring it on”

Chapter Twenty

Zach was in her shower

Because he’d slept in her bed

Because they’d finally stoppedAnd as the point of hiht? He had to be at the clubhouse by nine, and she’d planned to swing by the diner at the same time That left precious few hours of sleep and it would have been pointless to send hi nap

These were the excuses running through her mind as Toni watched the coffee drip into the pot All very flimsy excuses when the reality of the situation was she hadn’t wanted him to leave He felt so wonderful spooned all around her after they’d finally collapsed, sated and sleepy

She should be exhausted The lack of sleep should have had her stued with anticipation of as next Must have had so to do with the nuht—and once when they first woke up

With a huff, Toni stru to occupy her until the coffee percolated and Zach finished up in the shower It was either that or hop in there with hiain Fun, but not the wisest choice if she wanted any chance of keeping some distance between them
