“Good morning, dear. I hope that Enzo put that smile on your face. I caught a glimpse of him this morning fetching your robe.” Genevieve grinned.

Gray blushed. “Mom, you’re not supposed to notice that or if you do, you’re not supposed to tell me.”

“Yes, move into my room. Then we don’t have to run up and down the hall like adolescents.” Gray jumped at the sound of Enzo’s voice.

“Good morning, Genevieve” Enzo bowed and gave her a smile. “I’m glad I have your approval.”
