I woke up in Reed's arms an hour after we crawled into his bed. I was sticky and itchy from strawberries and it made me smile. His warm body pressed into mine. I had to get back to the loft and my room, so I wiggled out from his hold. He never woke up.A soft glow from a nightlight in his bathroom helped me locate my clothes after washing some of the sticky red trails from my body with a washcloth. I made it downstairs and noticed the security system. Reed had given me the code when he set it and thank goodness my mind wasn't so far gone with lust that I couldn't remember the six digits.I climbed the stairs to the loft and unlocked the front door. The soft glow and drone from the television let me know I wasn't sneaking back in without being seen.My brother waited with Don Gato curled on his lap."Hi. Couldn't sleep?" I asked in the most level tone I could manage."New bed. I guess I needed a lumpy couch, though this one doesn't pass the test. How about you? Couldn't sleep?"I

He took me to the kitchen and pulled out our chair. Yes, I knew the chair was ours. He took the one next to it, giving me an innocent look. The man was diabolically evil.I ignored the instant zing between my thighs and got to the point. "You are not buying school clothes for Bitsy."He barely let me finish. "Hear me out first, Jaycee." He took my hands. "You've been caring for Jon and Bitsy for years now and you will continue to care for them. They start a new school tomorrow and I live in a ritzy neighborhood with upper-class schools. I know that probably pisses you off, but that's the world we live in. They'll have enough problems without adding clothes to the mix."I shook off his hands and stood up, the chair sliding back six inches when I did. "And you didn't think to mention this before we moved in? The last thing either of them need is more problems, you jerk." I paced across the kitchen and didn't speak again until I turned and faced him. "What you don't understand is that

We both needed sleep, so I didn't visit Reed that night. I tossed and turned for more than an hour before my exhaustion won the battle.I worried to death when Reed left with Jon and Bitsy to take them to school the next morning. He'd streamlined everything to get them in the new school. He was so efficient at getting things his way I wondered why he needed help with his personal paperwork. After dropping them off, he would head to the stadium for whatever it is that ball players did the week before spring training. Maggie and I would be picking up my brother and sister from school because Reed would be gone the entire day. We were still in the planning stage for rides during the remainder of the week after I vetoed a private driver. I caught Reed childishly rolling his eyes and wondered if all grown men acted up whenever they didn't get their way.Maggie arrived shortly after the rest of them left. We sat at the kitchen table and went over the cleaning, yard maintenance, and other h

I snuck into Reed's house that night. There was no chair or kinky play. He had me out of my clothes and flat on my back seconds after I entered his room. He barely controlled himself while I did my best to drive him beyond crazy.After we were both exhausted, I lay in his arms, our hearts racing and breathing choppy. He talked me into letting him hire a driver until I had my license. We managed to discuss it without arguing, but really, it was me proving the point that I could be reasonable if he talked things over with me first.I prodded the next conversation. "Who handles your household bills?""My attorney or someone in his law firm." He twirled my hair around his fingers and rubbed strands of it under his nose every so often.His sniffing my hair made me smile, and I continued. "Do you want me taking that over or are you okay with them handling it?""You would do it?""You're paying me, Reed, I'll do what you need. I've readied a stack of unsigned papers for you. I can't bel

Reed held my trembling hand in the backseat of the Rolls Royce he had hired and talked about baseball. I listened while trying to push down the need to vomit and heard only half of what he said. I knew Chi Chi and Sal would be there along with Clare and Dustin. They were my saving grace for the evening and I held tight to that thought."Relax and you'll have a good time. This is for charity, but also the last time for us to let off a little steam before spring training.""It's easy for you, but I don't think I can relax."His chuckle in my ear was low and sexy, the jerk.We pulled up to the El Diablo Hotel and exited the car onto red carpet. Flashbulbs went off while Reed kept his arm around my shoulders and ushered me inside. I heard him say a few words, but had no idea what. This was so not me. I didn't belong in this world pretending I was rich.Once past the front doors, we were shown to the grand ballroom. Reed gave our names to a waiter and he took us to our table. Relief sw

The loft lights were on, but I saw no signs of wild parties, so I didn't object when Reed pulled me straight into his house and up to his bedroom."Trust me?" he asked as he breathed against my neck.I loved when he asked that because it meant my kinky Reed was back."Absolutely.""I bought a few things that I want to try."I didn't know entirely why those words caused such a reaction, but my panties were no longer absorbent. Reed had no problem getting them off and appreciating my need."I like you wet," he said after my dress disappeared, though he left my heels on.Bedstraps and Velcro cuffs were my surprise. Reed brought out more bubbly before leaning me back on the bed."I love your legs and the high heels are icing on the cake," he said as he attached the cuffs around my ankles. He kissed my toes before spreading my legs and fastening the mattress straps to the ankle cuffs.He stood back and looked at me before placing cuffs around my wrists, ignoring the mattress straps

He woke me up several times throughout the night. It didn't matter that we were both sleep deprived. It only mattered that he was buried deep inside me, soothing my body with his, and making me explode over and over.When his cell phone chimed, sunlight bathed the room."Shit," I heard him say as I tried to open my sleepy eyes.He flew off the bed and started grabbing his clothes. I sat up, bringing the sheet with me."Sal's waiting to pick me up. He's outside."This was it. My heart dropped as I noticed his suitcases beside his dresser. There were other things on my mind when I came into the room last night and I'd missed his luggage. I closed my eyes, pushing back tears. Everyone left me. It was always like this. I felt the corner of the bed dip and Reed's lips against my forehead."I'll visit a couple of weeks from now, so it won't be too long. I'll call, and you'll be busy with school and work."The tears slipped past my eyelids and I was pulled into his arms."Shh, baby, I

It felt strange to wander around Reed's large home without him in it. I'd finished washing his sheets the day before along with my laundry. The cleaning crew would be in tomorrow and I didn't have driver's training until the afternoon with the big test on Friday. I decided to tackle Reed's paperwork again and create a spreadsheet to figure out what was what.It took an hour to set up the spreadsheet. As I started on the first stack of papers to add in the figures, the office phone rang. I debated answering, but quickly decided I should because it was one of my job responsibilities.Message pen in hand, I answered, "Reed Tyler's residence. May I help you?""Who is this?" It was a decidedly female voice."This is Jaycee Shumway. May I help you?""I don't know who you are, but I will speak with my son immediately."Ah, oh. "I'm sorry, but Mr. Tyler is unavailable." There was no way I was telling Reed's mom he was in Florida and I couldn't believe she didn't know."Take a message an
