Mia Sutton lay in bed, somewhat bewildered about how she had been coaxed into this.
Staring at the ceiling, she listened to the faint sound of water splashing from a distance.
She reached for the big plush toy that lay beside her.
Yes, it was the same one she had left in Jensen Sterling's room the last time, and it had been sitting by his bedside ever since. She hugged the cushion and buried her face into it.
What was her reaction when Jensen finished talking earlier?
She seemed to have had no particular reaction, just blinked blankly and opened her mouth a little, saying: "Well... all my stuff is in the guest room."
Jensen replied, "No worries, I've got an extra quilt here. You just come over, the rest can be moved tomorrow."
"Mia, do you want to come over and sleep?"
The man's eyes were smiling, and his voice was irresistibly enticing. She momentarily lost control and, beguiled, agreed.
By the time she came to her senses, she was already in Jensen's room.
