Chapter 25

Good. I’ll be up as soon as I possibly can. xo

With the phone still clutched in my hand, I fell asleep. 11

The next morning, I awoke bright and early next to Asher in his bed. I couldn’t remember him coming home after the bar closed or walking up the stairs, so he must have carried me. I wished he’d woken me up so I could have kissed him good night.

A quick glance at the time told me I had to get up if I was going to have time to execute my plan before lunch. I was reluctant to leave the warm bed and the sleeping man next to me—he was fucking adorable with sleep creases all over his face—but I had no choice.

Carefully, I brushed an errant strand of hair off his forehead and kissed his cheek. Lingering for as long as I possibly could. He hummed in his sleep, and I groaned internally. He wasn’t making it easy for me to get up.
