“What was that for?”

“Because I’m your wife and you have a nice ass.” She gives it a smack, and I let out a surprised laugh. “Now get out of the way, because I think it’s time to take some of this food out.”

Shaking my head, I do as she says.

Watching her take the food out of the oven is a sight for sore eyes. Not just because of the way her ass almost peeks out of her short dress when she bends over, but because she’s here, in my house, and was thoughtful enough to make a big deal out of me coming home.

Of telling me she loves me.

She fucking loves me.

I fist pump twice, feeling alive.

Savannah glances at me in surprise over her shoulder. “What was that?”

“Just celebrating my victory,” I tell her.

Her nose wrinkles in confusion. “I thought you lost?”

“I meant finally winning you over, Peaches.”

Her expression melts into a smile, and she beams at me from over the steaming tray of food.

“And I’m excited to taste what smells so good,” I continue, practically purring at her.

“Then get some plates out and let’s eat.”

“I meant you, Savannah.”

She swats at me with the oven mitt, and I chuckle. “We’re eating first this time.”

“Why?” I say, still beyond happy she wants to eat. I’ll give Zoltan a massive bonus. The man’s worth every damn penny.

“Because you’re going to need your strength for what I have planned tonight,” she says primly.

I was mostly joking about making love to her before dinner.

But now?

Now I’m dying to know what, exactly, she has in mind.

CHAPTER 53

SAVANNAH

Tyler watches me carefully throughout dinner, and the way he seems to catalog every bite I take causes guilt to rear its ugly head.

Was he really that worried about me?

Yes, a small voice says. You were worried too.

Still, I can’t make myself eat the whole plate he made me, which would be too much regardless, and I push it away.

Ty’s eyes narrow.

“What are you thinking about?” I ask him.

“Your boobs,” he says.
