Page 108 of The Billionaire Bodyguard Next Door
Someone knocked on my open door.
I stood, expecting to see my ten o’clock. It was just Sebastian.
“What the hell are you doing here?” I got up and shook his hand, bringing him in for a quick pat on the back.
“Do you have a minute?”
I lifted a finger. “Let me just che?—”
“Your meeting got moved to next week. You’re free,” my assistant yelled from just outside my office.
“Well that clears that up.” I shut the door. “Tell me what brings you here. Is everything okay with Faith?”
Sebastian revealed a small smile. “She’s great. I’m actually here to invite you to her next show.”
I lifted a brow. “You want me to go to an art show? Is there another security threat?”
I mentally flipped through my list of staff who might be able to make it happen depending on when the event took place. It wasn't ideal, but in a pinch I could step in.
Sebastian held up his hands. “Nothing like that. Things have settled down now with the press. Turns out, it's not very exciting to report on Faith now that she's busy upstate painting and being a dog mom.”
I settled back in my chair, happy to hear that. More importantly, I was glad my friend was letting up a little. He took his partner’s safety so seriously that I worried for them at times.
Not that I'd ever say that to his face.
If caring for Luna had taught me anything, it's that loving someone can make you do crazy things.
Like right now I was running through my mind all the ways I could convince her to move in with me and Alice.
I stood. “Let's get coffee.”
Sebastian gave me an odd look. “Sure.”
When we got to the street, I shoved my hands in my pockets.
Sebastian glanced at me curiously. “You're quiet. You're never quiet.”
We headed toward the nearest coffee shop, and I ordered two cold brews without bothering to ask Sebastian for his order since he usually drank the same thing as me.
I dropped into a chair at the only remaining table and Sebastian raised a brow. “What the hell is going on with you? I've never seen you like this.”
My elbows hit the tabletop. “I slept with Luna.”
Sebastian choked on his drink.
“I'm in love with her.” It felt good to share this with my friend. Cathartic even.
Sebastian nabbed a napkin from the holder in the center of the table and started cleaning up the mess he made. “I don't understand.”
I lifted my head. “I thought I was very clear.”
Sebastian crumpled up the coffee-soaked napkin. “I'm not sure why you think this is big news. Everyone knows you’re in love with Luna Marks.”
I frowned. “Everyone?”
He nodded emphatically. “Everyone.”
“What about Dominic and Daisy?” I hadn't spent much time with them recently.
