Chapter 37: How to Catch a Man in 45 Days

We drove in silence to his apartment. I kept replaying our night in my head and I realized that Alice was right—I needed to trust Edward and let him lead me.

Edward made good use of the otherwise empty elevator as we rode up to his tenth floor apartment. Just like the night before, his kisses made my toes curl and my lady parts tingle in anticipation.

"Why don't you make yourself comfortable while I get us some wine," he said after he closed the door. I could tell he was trying to put me at ease.

"Alright, but just a small glass," I answered. I had eaten dinner this time, but I wasn't taking chances.

His apartment was nothing like I had imagined. Far from the sparsely furnished bachelor pad I expected, it was instead warm and full of personality.

"Wow, I love your apartment. It's so... homey."

"You can thank my mother. She decorated it when I moved in a couple of years ago."

He returned with our wine, handing me a glass before pulling me down beside him on the couch.

We both slipped off our shoes and settled comfortably onto the overstuffed sofa. He pushed a button on the remote control and the room was filled with soft music. We sipped our wine in silence while our eyes devoured each other.

"I'm glad you like the place," he said, trailing the fingers of his free hand up my arm until he could brush my hair behind my shoulder. "You're the first woman I've ever brought here."


A/N: Oh, really, Edward?
