Chapter 40

Hannah

I hear the door open as I’m lounging in the living room. Seconds later, I hear Tobias enter the hallway. I know it’s him from how he moves, and awareness prickles over my skin.

Why did he come home?

I turn around my place on the couch, looking up at the big body silhouetted in the bright sunlight coming. in through the window. Once Tobias’s face comes into view, a stab of attraction pierces me at the sight. of him, and my smile grows wide.

“You’re back home.”

He comes over to sit beside me, concern in his eyes. “Dora told me you were having a shitty day.”

I pout. “I told Dora to tell you to stay at work…”

“Oh,” a hint of an amused smile graces his lips, and he reaches out to set my hair behind my ear. “Don’t you want me here?”

I sit still as Tobias brushes even more of my blonde hair to the other side of my shoulder. I can’t help but stare at his thick neck and the broad shoulders underneath his shirt. He spends a lot of time working out, and I have a hard time keeping my paws off him.

But it’s not only his physical traits that turn me into goo. Tobias left work and came home for my sake, even though he had an important meeting later with a potential new partner. He sacrificed making a good impression on them to go home.

I wet my lips, asking carefully, “Didn’t you have a meeting today?”

“My uncle will handle it,” Tobias smiles. “But back to the question, aren’t you happy that your husband is home?”

His look tells me he knows exactly how much I like that he is home with me. I’m just… hormonal and

sensitive.

“Of course, I love that you’re home!” it feels like I might tear up again. I can’t believe Tobias left work for my sake. “But it might be bad for you to spend time around me…”

Tobias looks surprised like he has no clue what I’m talking about. “Wait… why? Why would it be bad for

me?”

“Because I’m sad and happy, and just…” I shed a tear and then laugh at how weird I’m behaving. My eyesight is clouded, and my face is wet already. “What is wrong with me?”

“Oh, Hannah…” Tobias embraces me, and I fall against his chest. His fingers are on the back of my head, brushing through my hair while he kisses my forehead. “Nothing is wrong with you. Absolutely nothing. You’re my perfect, beautiful wife, and I’m happy I could sneak away from that boring meeting.”

“Boring?”
