~ SIMON

The moment Jamie walked into the conference room the next morning, my brain short-circuited.

She was wearing a little black dress—the kind that looked simple from a distance but devastating up close. The fabric hugged every curve like it had been painted on her, and the neckline dipped low enough to make me forget my own name.

Her hair was down for the first time. Dark waves falling over her shoulders, catching the fluorescent light like she'd just stepped out of a magazine.

    ~ SIMONThe driver took Chloe home shortly after.The second the elevator doors closed, Jamie let out a sigh and headed upstairs. I followed without a word.She stayed quiet until we reached my office.Then she let loose."I feel awful."I closed the door behind us.Jamie paced the office from one end to the other as she talked, replaying the whole conversation with Chloe like she was presenting evidence to a jury.I leaned against the desk and crossed my arms."I wasn't trying to humiliate her, Simon. I just wanted to talk about the clothes. In private. I thought I was being polite.""You were.""But you saw how she reacted.""I did."Jamie stopped in front of me."Do you think I was mean?"I uncrossed my arms."Come here.""Simon, I'm serious."I took her hand and pulled her toward me.She let out a small sound of surprise when her body hit mine. I wrapped an arm around her waist."Listen to me, babe. Bad people don't usually waste time wondering if they're bad."

    ~ JAMIEI waited until Lily finished dinner and ran off to the living room before I pulled Chloe aside."Chloe, you got a minute?"Her smile faltered."Of course."We stepped into the kitchen. Simon was still holed up in his office upstairs, and the kids were occupied in the living room. It was the best shot I was going to get.Even so, I felt weirdly uncomfortable."There's something kind of delicate I wanted to talk to you about," I started. "And I don't want you to take this personally."Chloe went still."It's about some of the tops you wear here."The color drained from her face.I pushed ahead before I lost my nerve."Some of them are pretty thin, and since you don't wear a bra... sometimes they end up showing more than you might realize. Including the piercings."Chloe blinked.For a second, she looked like she'd stopped breathing."You saw?""Chloe, I'm not judging you. I swear. You can wear whatever you want. I just think that, while you're working, inside the

    ~ JAMIESimon didn't notice.Or if he did, he didn't show a thing.Five minutes later, we were in the car on the way to Hart Enterprises, and I was still trying to figure out why it bothered me so much.It wasn't jealousy.At least, not the small, ridiculous kind that makes a woman turn another woman's body into a threat.Chloe could have piercings wherever she wanted. She could hate bras. She could wear whatever she wanted in her personal life.But she wasn't in her personal life.She worked inside the house where the kids lived. Where Simon lived. Where I was starting to live too.Maybe there was a difference between controlling another woman's body and expecting some sense of professional appropriateness.Or maybe I was inventing a problem because Susan had planted a stupid idea in my head.Simon's hand landed on my thigh.I squinted out the window."Where are you?" he asked."Here."His fingers squeezed my thigh once."Your body is. I asked about your head."I tur

    ~ JAMIEMy father-in-law managed to turn a surprise visit of just over an hour into a whole event.By the time William finally announced he had to go, Sam had already gotten a toy store trip out of him, Lily had secured a promise of ice cream, and Jack was seriously debating Susan about which was the best museum in New York."I'll be back before you have time to miss me," William promised."Is that tomorrow?" Lily asked."Lily," Simon said, holding back a laugh.William pointed at her."That girl negotiates better than you.""Everyone in this house negotiates better than me, apparently."Simon turned his face to me like he was throwing shade.Susan pushed William's chair toward the elevator. Before getting in, she looked at Simon, then at me."I stand by what I said.""About the allergic priest?" Simon asked."About the nanny.""Susan," William complained."I'm going."The doors closed with William still saying something about her urgently needing a hobby.I laughed a

    ~ SIMONShit. I locked the door, didn't I?I got out of bed, tossed the condom, and walked over. The sound had come from the hallway."Stay here," I said."Simon, it might be one of the kids.""That's exactly why I'm going to check."I pulled on my pants fast, didn't bother with the belt, and shoved my arms into the open shirt. Jamie was already grabbing her nightgown off the floor when I unlocked the door.The hallway was empty.I checked Jack's room first. He was sleeping on his back, a book open next to his pillow. Sam was sprawled sideways, one foot hanging out from under the blanket.I went into Lily's room too. She was out cold, hugging her stuffed rabbit.But she was alone.Chloe wasn't in the room.I looked down the hall. A strip of light was coming up from the living room, bleeding up the stairs.I walked over quietly.Chloe was standing by the window, watching the rain fall over Manhattan. She was wearing the same blouse from earlier, holding a glass of water.

    ~ SIMONLater, I found Jamie in our bedroom standing in front of the mirror. She was wearing a short nightgown and holding her phone, though she didn’t seem to be reading anything on it.I closed the door and turned the lock.“I’m a very lucky man,” I said.Jamie watched me in the mirror.“Trying to score points, suck-up?”“Don’t need to. I own the scoreboard.”“Cocky.”I took off my watch and set it on the dresser.“Still jealous?”“A little.”I came up behind her but kept my hands at my sides.“Can I touch you, or am I in the doghouse tonight?”She rolled her eyes, smiling.“You can.”I put my hands on her waist and kissed the back of her neck.Jamie grabbed my shirt and pulled me closer, but I didn’t rush. I wanted her to feel every choice. My mouth on hers. My hands on her. Every ounce of my attention exactly where it belonged.I ran my fingers over the straps of her nightgown.“This allowed too?”“Simon.”“I need a clear answer.”“Take it off.”I slipped one
