I drop the phone back on the nightstand and slip out of bed to go make my goddess some breakfast.

I’m standing at the stove cooking eggs when her soft arms wrap around my waist from behind. “Good morning.”

I turn in her arms. “Good afternoon is more like it.” As I kiss her soft lips, she melts against me, and I forget all about the eggs cooking on the stove.

“Fuck,” I growl and quickly stir the eggs before they burn. “I hope you like your eggs slightly overcooked.”

“I’m so hungry, I could eat just about anything.” She pours us each a glass of orange juice while I finish the eggs and bacon.

It suddenly hits me that something is missing. “What did you do with the furball?”

“I had Zane and Celine babysit him.” When she mentions her brother, I realize I forgot to have her call the asshole.

“That reminds me.” Better late than never. “Your brother wants to hear from you.”

“Shoot.” My goddess jumps up and rushes to the front hall. A few moments later, she returns, digging in her purse. “I got here and threw myself into getting ready for you to come home and totally forgot to call him.”

“I’m glad I’m more important than your brother.”

“You’re more important than anything.” I sit back and pull her onto my lap while she calls her brother. I’m able to make out the entire conversation pretty much from her side alone.

Once she hangs up, I carry my goddess upstairs and practice knocking her gorgeous ass up.
