Hunter focused back on the present; Olivia wasn’t talking anymore.
“My sweet?” he said, hoping she hadn’t hung up.
“Did I lose you? You weren’t responding.”
“I was so taken with your words, your voice, and my feelings for you, that I couldn’t speak. I have to confess that I’ve fallen in love with you.”Dammit! Too bold. Too soon. Olivia isn’t like the others. She’s not so naïve or desperate.“Or at least what I think is love,” he quickly corrected. “All I know is that I have strong feelings for you and would like to meet you.” Hunter drew in a breath and held it.
For a long while Olivia didn’t respond, and he cursed himself for his lack of patience. He’d wanted Olivia for such a long time that he let his desire speak instead of his intellect.
“I think meeting would be the next logical step, right?” Another cute giggle.
He let out his breath slowly. “Only if you’re ready,” he said cautiously.
“I am.”
A bolt of desire ran straight to his groin.
“When do you want to meet?”
The doorknob jiggled, and Hunter looked over.
“Daddy?” Aaron’s muffled voice came from the other side of the door.
“I’ll let you know the details soon, my sweet. I have some business I need to attend to right now. I hate saying goodnight, but I have to.” His gaze stayed fixed on the door.
“Okay. Goodnight.”
The phone went dead and a grin broke out over his face.I have her.
Pushing up from the chair, he said, “Daddy’s coming” then switched off the lamp and unlocked the door.
