Lexi returned to her bedroom after spending the entire day with Lily, although she'd been very distracted. Lily had caught up on it, but Lexi wasn't going to tell her why. Especially when she had not made a decision, and she sure as hell wasn't going to take all the attention from Lily's wedding. Thankfully Tyler had stayed away. She'd expected him to show up any time to keep his promise, but he'd actually kept his distance, and she'd only seen his once throughout the day. “I heard you’ve had a bad day,” a voice said behind her when she was on her way to the balcony. Lexi gasped and turned. As though conjured by her thoughts, Tyler stood in the doorway. God, she had to stop forgetting to lock that door! He looked rumpled. His hair was pushed back from his forehead, the length of it curled at his nape, and he wore a suit jacket that matched his eyes. Tired eyes, she noted. Clearly she wasn’t the only one who’d missed out on sleep last night. A niggle of guilt surfaced. “I didn’t

“Hey, Lexi, you in there?” Lily called. Lexi pulled away from Tyler immediately, straightening her clothes as she did. It took a few seconds before she put herself together and found her voice. Tyler on the other hand took his sweet time, not looking one bit flustered. “Come in,” Lexi called. Lily's timing couldn’t have been more perfect.The doorknob jiggled and Lily called, “It’s locked.”Lexi shot Tyler a look. He had come in, then locked the door? Tyler only smirked at her in response. She left the balcony, followed by Tyler, crossed the room and let her friend in. “I can’t find Tyler and I was wondering—” Lily spotted Tyler standing by the bed. “Oh! There you are.”Curiosity leaped like wild flames in her eyes, but she played it cool. Lexi could just imagine what she must be thinking. Tyler didn’t even have the decency to look guilty or uncomfortable.“Yes, ma’am.” He said. “The tailor is here to do the final fitting on the tuxedos. They’re waiting for you in the master suit

Lily's expression hardened, her hair and red lipstick very dramatic paired with her red strapless dress. “Because it’s true. You’ve got Tyler and me and your family to help you. But you can’t shut Tyler out of the baby’s life. And if you do, he has every right to sic his lawyer on you. I’m sorry, but that’s the truth. The baby belongs to both of you. Where is the fairness in you keeping the baby from him?”Lily's statement hurt. But she knew she was right, “Keeping the baby from him wasn't the plan. The marriage proposal just came so suddenly. You know it's Tyler. You know what his family was like growing up and even now, he's never been a fan of marriage or getting married. The sudden change of heart on the matter scares me, that's it,”“Well, a baby is involved now, and if you ask me, that's a pretty good reason to have a change of mind,” Lily pulled Lexi close for a hug. “You will both be fine, okay? Go talk to him tonight,”_________Lexi flung open the bedroom door and peered ins

She liked being the one in control. She continued her exploration downward, just below his silky waistband, teased him there. “Tyler…”His reply came out breathy and uneven. “Yes….”“I know you want me. Are you going to make me beg?”She could swear she felt him smile. “That’s not a problem, is it?”He turned abruptly, and before she knew it she was in his arms. Body to body, soul to soul. Then he was kissing her. And, oh, did he know how to kiss. He took control, possessed her. If he had wanted her to be the aggressor in this scenario, that moment had passed. And what gave him the right? What if she wanted to be the one calling the shots for a change?His hands wandered down her back, over her behind, his erection long and hard between them behind the slippery silk. He cupped her backside and squeezed so she bit his lip. Hard. He gasped and jerked and for a second she thought she’d gone too far.“Did I hurt you?”His lids were heavy, eyes glassy and unfocused as he gazed down at her
