Chapter 28: CALLAN

The next day I had to go to the office while she went off for yet more consultations. I’d spent the morning keeping her primed, little touches as we passed each other, my hand smoothing down her hair. I also kept calling her Kitten at every opportunity, getting her use to her new name.

“I’ve picked out your clothing for the day; they’re on your bed.” I imparted that news as we sat down to breakfast after our morning workout and baths.

I watched to see if there would be any objections forthcoming, but she just nodded her head and dug into her oatmeal.

It wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be, walking her down to the car, sending her off on her own. I didn’t repeat the kiss of the morning before, but I did rub my finger under her chin after seating her in the back of the car.

“Call me at exactly twelve-thirty, Kitten, so I know that you’re doing okay.” That was her introduction to what would soon become part of her daily life.
