“Lan?” I asked innocently after I ushered Luka to the couch and put on his favorite construction cartoon. The kitchen was attached to the living room so I could keep an eye on him. Lan was still in the same place we left him, watching us with a slight grin.

Oh, it’s not going to last long, mister.

“Lan.” The tip of my pointer finger grazed his shoulder as I passed him. The sharp hitch of his breath was music to my ears.

“Yes, angel?” he said in a smoldering voice that burned my insides.

A faint shiver trembled my hands, but I met his gaze with nonchalance. “Can you get the glass from the upper cabinet?” I asked in a sultry tone, biting my lips. “I can’t reach.”

Lan’s eyes widened as he nodded, leaping to his feet.

“What the fuck has gotten into her?” I heard him curse under his breath as he made his way to the cabinet.

I slowly stalked my feet to his side and hovered over his back and stood there quietly.

He didn’t have to reach higher to lift the glass into his hand, and when he turned, his soul almost jumped out of his skin. “Jesus fuck, Katy,” he breathed, holding his hands to his chest. “You scared me, woman.”

A subtle smile played on my lips. “Luka thanks hisdaddy,” I drawled in a low husky tone.

His jaw fell; his eyes unblinking as my hands slowly retrieved the glass from him. He was standing right there, gaping as I coolly went on to make a glass for Luka.

My moments casual and ignorant almost, like I didn’t just say what I said.

He was still standing right there, his gaze weighing down on me as I padded over to Luka to give him his shake. Outwardly, I was the normal Katy as always, but inwardly, I felt like I had won something significant.

I didn’t know how long he planned to play this game with me and watch me squirm.

Now, it was my turn to leave him high and dry and wondering.

Lan didn’t know what was coming for him.

I had so much more planned.

Tonight.

CHAPTER 28

KATY

Later that night. Much, much later. A smug smile spread across my lips as I dabbed rose-scented essential oil on my pulse points and adjusted my satin straps.

My eyes swept over the lacy red baby doll that I knew would drive him crazy. It had satiny straps and was tight over my heavy breasts before curving down my body stopping just below my ass. The material was so thin, almost transparent as it brushed against my skin.

“Lan,” I mustered the most innocent voice I could find as I slowly opened his bedroom door, making sure to lock it behind me.

“Katy.” Lan’s panicked voice reached me. “What’s wrong? Is it Luka, the babies?” he demanded, the sheets ruffled to his lap as he jerked to a seat.

“Nothing,” I said quickly. “I’m fine. They’re fine. I just want to sleep with you tonight.”

Even in the darkness shrouding the room, I could hear the sharp inhale of his breath. “Okay,” he muttered in his groggy, sleep-laden voice.

A click crackled through the air and in an instant, the room basked in a golden light.

One look at me and all the sleep vanished from his eyes. “Jesus Katy, what the fuck are you wearing, woman?”

I lifted a casual shoulder. I hurried to the other side of the bed and dove under the sheets and pulled them just below my ample breasts.

I blinked at him. “It’s what I always wear to sleep these days. They are comfy.”
