“You had some packages arrive, sir.”
“Thank you.”
Smiling, I grab everything and exit my room. Walking across the hallway, I begin to open the door but stop myself and knock instead.
It cracks open just a bit and blue eyes meet mine. “Kashton?” She frowns as she hides her body behind the door. Her wet hair tells me she just got out of the shower. She’s either naked or only has a towel on. “Haidyn isn’t in here.”
“I’m here to see you.” I smile at her.
“Oh, okay. Can you give me a minute?”
“Of course.”
She closes the door, and I stand silently in the hallway while she gets dressed. After a few short minutes, she fully opens the door, now dressed in sweatpants and a T-shirt. Her wet hair is up in some kind of clip. Charlotte gestures for me to enter.
“What can I do for you?” she wonders.
I hold out the boxes to her. “I brought you some gifts.”
Placing them on the bed, she picks up the one on the top. She tries to open it, but it’s taped. “Here.” I remove my pocketknife, slap it open, and take the box from her. I cut the tape across the top and both sides before handing it back.
“Thank you,” she mumbles awkwardly and begins to open it while I cut the other two open for her.
I watch her eyes light up when she drops the box to her feet. “Oh my gosh, I’ve been wanting one of these.” She gives me a bright smile.
The sound of the door unlocking has me looking up before Haidyn enters. He comes to a stop when his eyes meet mine. They narrow on me. “What are you doing in here?”
I frown at the accusation in his tone. Does he not trust me with his wife? He made meher guardian.
“Look what Kashton got us.” She holds it up for him to see.
Walking over to her, he frowns, looking it over. “What is it?”
“It’s a backpack,” I inform him.
“A cat carrier backpack,” she corrects me. “It’s for Muffin.” She beams, handing it over to him. “We can take her for walks. She’ll love it.”
His eyes go to mine, and he looks very unpleased about his future outdoor adventures with the hairy pussy. I can see him wearing it while Charlotte takes pictures of them bird-watching out in the woods.
“Oh, don’t think I forgot about you, big guy.” I hand him the second box. When he makes no attempt to open it, she rips it from his hands and does the job.
She laughs. “It’s perfect.” Then she holds it up to his chest and reads the T-shirt out loud. “I love her Muffin.”
“Get it?” I wiggle my eyebrows. “It could mean?—”
“I get it,” he interrupts, not amused in the slightest.
Just then, the cat jumps up on the bed and meows. Charlotte picks her up. “Want to go for a walk?” She kisses the cat and smiles over at her husband.
Haidyn looks like he wants to deny her, but after a second, he nods. “I have an hour.”
Charlotte holds Muffin out to him, and he takes her without hesitation before she rises up on her tiptoes and kisses his cheek. “Let me change.” Spinning around, she practically skips off to the bathroom.
I clap my hands.My work is done.“Have fun,” I sing, exiting his room. Just as the door goes to shut, he rips it open and spins me around.
“What the fuck are you doing, Kash?” he demands, setting the cat down on the floor.
“I can’t give your wife gifts?” I cross my arms over my chest.
