took her face in my hands, “I know, baby, and it’s ok.”

“No, it’s not, Connor. I know this is hard for you, and I’m so sorry.”

She was begging for forgiveness, but she didn’t need to. I brought my lips to hers as I said, “It’s ok,

baby. I didn’t mean what I said; it came out wrong.”

“I know you didn’t, and I overreacted.”

I kissed her again and held her tight, letting her know that she was forgiven.

“Where did you go?” she asked.

I got up from the floor and told her to go sit on the bed. I walked over to the dresser, grabbed the

brown bag, and handed it to her. “I figured this would make you feel better,” I said with caution. She

opened up the bag, and her eyes widened as she looked inside and dumped the chocolate on the bed.

“You are amazing and absolutely perfect! I love you,” she said as she wrapped her arms around me

and pulled me on top of her. “I know something else that will make me feel better,” she smiled as I

hovered over her.

“Are you sure you’re up for it?” I asked. She lifted her head and kissed me passionately. That was

the only sign I needed.

The next morning I got out of bed and made a pot of coffee. Ellery was still asleep, and I had some

business I needed to take care of. I sat on the couch with my phone and opened an email from Phil,

stating that there’s one more meeting scheduled to finalize the deal for the Chicago Company. He said

the meeting is first thing tomorrow morning and that I really need to be there. I got to thinking that it

would be great to bring Ellery back to New York, so we could spend more time together, and she’d

be able to see Peyton.

She stumbled out of the bedroom, rubbing her eyes and yawning as she headed towards the coffee

pot. “Hey, babe, I hope I didn’t wake you,” I smiled. She poured some coffee and sat down next to

me. I leaned over and ran my finger over her lips before kissing them good morning. I told her how I

needed to fly back to New York today for the meeting tomorrow morning, and that I wanted her to

come home with me. She was unsure if she could because of her treatment. I explained to her that it

didn’t matter, and that we’d be back here for her second treatment next month. She threw her arms

around me in excitement, especially when I told her that she would be living with me at the

Penthouse. I laughed when she pouted and asked me if she had to stay in the guest room. I took the

coffee cup from her hands and set it down on the table. I grabbed her and pulled her onto my lap as I

lifted up her nightshirt, threw it on the floor, and made love to her.

I was in the bathroom shaving while Ellery was still in the shower. I could smell the lilac scented

body wash that she was using. It’s the same scent that I’ve smelled since I first met her. She stepped

out of the shower, wrapped a towel around her wet body, and walked up behind me, wrapping her

arms around my waist and laying her head on my back. I stopped shaving and looked at her through

the mirror. She had a smile on her face. Damn that smile. I turned around so her head was on my chest

as I wrapped my arms around her.

“What’s wrong?” I asked.

“Nothing’s wrong. Can’t a woman hug the man she loves without there being something wrong?”

she asked.

“Of course she can,” I said as I kissed the top of her head. She took her hands, placed them on my

chest, and gave me a kiss. “I love you, Connor Black,” she smiled. “I love you too, Ellery Lane,” I

smiled back and kissed her nose. “Now, let me get back to shaving,” I said.

Her bathroom was small, and there was really only room at the sink for one person. Ellery decided

she was going to be funny and pushed me out of the way so she could brush her teeth. She reached

over to the medicine cabinet and opened it as I was in the middle of shaving. I could see the smirk on

her face. She grabbed her toothbrush and toothpaste and shut the cabinet. She reached over me and ran

her toothbrush under the running water. “Would you like me to move out of your way?” I asked. She

looked at me as she put her toothbrush in her mouth. “No, you’re fine,” she mumbled. I took the can of

shaving cream and put some on my hands. I started to bring my hands up to my face when she bumped

into me so she could spit in the sink. I lightly pushed her back, and she missed the sink and spat on my

leg. She looked up at me and tried to hold back the laughter that was dying to come out. I looked at

her, then at my leg.

“Oh please! We share spit all the time,” she started to laugh.

I was going to play this one cool and get her back. “It’s ok, Ellery. It was an accident,” I said as I

opened my hand with the shaving cream on it and planted it firmly on her cheek. Her jaw dropped as

she looked in the mirror. She looked at me with that look she gets when she’s going to take revenge.

She grabbed the tube of toothpaste and squirted it at my chest.

“Here’s a little toothpaste to go with that shaving cream,” she said.

I took my finger and tried to wipe the toothpaste off as she
