He stared at her, shock was written on his face. “Sutton… Wamer?”

“Yes.”

Luca came around the desk slowly, like he was afraid she would vanish or bolt like a wild animal. His eyes dropped to her stomach, lingered there, then rose back to her face. The relief in his expression was easy to see..

“You kept it,” he said, his voice thick with emotion. “The baby. You didn’t…”

“Get rid of him?” Sutton finished, a flash of anger rising. “Of course not. I told you I was keeping her.”

“He?” Luca’s eyes widened further. “It’s a boy?”

Sutton shook her head. “No, just a figure of speech… better than ‘it.“”

“Jesus Christ,” he breathed, running a hand through his hair. “All this time… I’ve been looking for you. Everywhere. And you’ve been here. Working for my

company.”

“I didn’t know it was your company until this morning. I knew about the new owner, but I didn’t know it was you,” Sutton said. “And it’s not like I’ve been hiding. I’ve been right here, using my real name.”

“Your real name,” he echoed, like the words didn’t make sense. “Not Audrey.”

“Audrey was my modeling name,” she explained. “My professional name.”

Luca moved closer, close enough that she could smell his cologne. The scent hit her with a wave of memories… his skin against hers, his breath on her neck, his hands in her hair as he pushed into her willing body… Oh god, she couldn’t start thinking of that now.

“I’ve had people searching for you,” he said. “For months. Ever since you left.” His voice cracked slightly. “I got your test. The pregnancy test. I tried to find you, but you were gone.”

Sutton swallowed hard. “I’m not sure why, unless you wanted me to sign an NDA. I think the people you hired owe you a refund.”

“And your hair…” He gestured vaguely to her head. “It’s different.”

“This is my natural color,” she said. “The platinum blonde was for modeling.” The ends still showed a lighter color, the rinse she used often fading.
