“Oh, hello dear!” Linn’s voice turns smooth and sweet again. “I didn’t realize you were in the room.”
“I just walked in. I’d know your voice anywhere. I think I’ve talked to you more times than my parents. They were always out when I’d call, but you were so nice to me.”
“You always were such a sweet girl. I look forward to seeing you in the office soon. Will you be visiting more now that you aren’t at school?”
Vivian looks at me as I pull her against my chest.
“Yes, Linn. You’ll be seeing much more of Vivian. In fact, I don’t know if I can come to the office without her.” I slide my hand up her thigh.
She wriggles in my lap. “I don’t see myself as an office-type person, but I guess I’ll do what I must.”
I kiss her cheek. “You’ll do whatever the hell you want. Nothing more, nothing less.”
She smiles big, and I swear I feel my heart grow a few sizes at the knowledge that I’ve made her happy.
“Well.” Linn lets out a breath. “You sound happier than I’ve ever heard you.”
Vivian cups my face and kisses me softly. “I am, Linn. I really am.”

VIVIAN
“I don’t wanna.” I cover my head with the blankets, making Griff laugh. “Stop laughing. It’s too early for laughter.” He pulls the blanket back down off my naked body before plucking me from the bed.
“I told you we had to get up early. Maybe next time you’ll go to bed when I tell you to.” He tosses me over his shoulder, and my hair falls into my face so I can’t see anything. The man makes me feel like a tiny doll when he manhandles me. It should be annoying, but like most things when it comes to my Griff, it only turns me on.
“Maybe next time you’ll go to bed early.” I mimic his words but in a child's whiny voice.
“Ahh!” I scream when he smacks my booty. “You’ll pay for that.” I smack his ass right back.
“Name the price. I’ll pay anything for you,” he responds before putting me back onto my feet inside the shower.
“If you want me to go to bed at a decent time then don’t cuddle me while you’re all naked. What did you think was going to happen?” I say, tartly folding my hands over my chest. His eyes drop to my boobs.
“We’re going to be late,” he grumbles before he flips on the shower.
“Why are we going to be late?” I ask. Wait, where are we even going?
Griff never wakes me up all early. Unless it’s to give me pleasure, but then I fall back asleep. I usually crawl out of bed whenever I feel like it. I normally get to sleep as late as I want. I’m a bit spoiled.
“You’re why we’re going to be late.” He makes another grab for me. This time he pins me to the shower wall and has his way with me. I have no clue how long we’re in the shower, but I don’t care. I come out not only squeaky clean, but my mood is now chipper from the two orgasms he gave me. “Get dressed, love. We’re going to the office.”
“Oh! Really?”
“I need to go in, and I know if I don’t take you with me, I’ll end up getting little done and coming back home.”
“Cause you’ll miss me?” I sing-song.
“Always.” He plants a long, hard kiss on my mouth.
“Good, cause I’d miss you too,” I admit before I dart into the closet to find something to wear. I settled on a summer dress that’s a petal pink and a pair of simple white sneakers. “This okay?” I ask when I exit the closet. Griff is in his typical suit.
His eyes drop to my legs.
“What? You don’t like it?” I glance down at it. A second later Griff is in front of me, his finger under my chin to lift my head. He uses his thumb to pull my bottom lip out from between my teeth.
“You’re beautiful. I’m just a jealous bastard who was thinking about how many men might get to see your legs today.”
