If she wasn’t smiling he might be worried that she thought he was hiding their relationship from people.

Which was something they were going to have to talk about at some point too.

“I’m not,” he said. “Are you? You said your parents know we are dating.” Hard not to since they watched Gianna last weekend and were going to do it again this weekend. “I’d like to let my family know if you’re okay with it. At least Roni. Otherwise she might find out from Carolyn that they ‘set us up’.”

He’d lifted his fingers in quotes and they both started to laugh some more.

“They really did,” she said. “Because, you know, slow.” She popped her finger into his chest as she’d said that.

“Well,” he said. “We know you’re not slow and I’m very thankful for it.”

“You tried to slow me down in the bedroom enough over the weekend,” she said, her hands dropping and going around his waist and pulling his hips into hers.

Who the hell was this woman?

The one who said she threw out hints he couldn’t see before.

A man in a coma could understand what Dillion wanted now.

“Not everything has to be fast,” he said. “Some things could be savored.”

“And we’ll get to do that this weekend,” she said.

He leaned down to kiss her one more time. “So you’re good if I let Roni know about us? She won’t say anything to anyone with the last name of Fierce.”

“You can tell your sister,” she said. “Let me know how it goes. A little heads up might be good if she reaches out and gives me the younger sister talk.”

He laughed. “She’s never done it before, but there could be a first.”

Jax left and returned to the staircase. No reason for someone to see him getting on this floor because he knew his staff would be coming in now.

He was unlocking his door when the elevator opened behind him. He turned to see a few of his staff and his sister.

Today seemed to be the day for surprise visitors.

“Morning,” he said.

Roni waited for his staff to go in while he held the door. “Did you take the stairs?” Roni asked.

“I did. Were you coming to see me?”

“No,” Roni said. “I need to check out the small space down the hall quickly for something. But then I was going to come and say hi. Why?”

“I wanted to talk to you anyway,” he said. “Come see me when you get a minute.”

“I can do it now,” Roni said. “It’s not like anyone is in that space.”

His sister walked ahead of him and they went to his office and he shut the door.

“I’m dating someone,” he said.

“That’s great,” Roni said. “Who is it?”

“Dillion Patrick. She was my dermatologist.”

His sister burst out laughing. “I know who she is. I’ve met her, remember. This is one of those Fierce things, isn’t it? I knew they were trying to set you up. They’ve probably thrown enough hints at you and her and you are playing with them, aren’t you?”

“We’re playing with them, but not like you think,” he said and explained what had transpired.
