Raegan’s cheeks flushed deeper, convinced she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep with him so close. “I don’t think I can handle more,” she confessed shyly, which only made Mitchel chuckle as he settled beside her. “You just need a bit more exercise. You’re not strong enough yet.”
Raegan retorted, “Hey, that’s not on me. You’re just too much to keep up with.”
She then gave him a curious look. “Mitchel, how did you get so good at all that?” Using ice… He was just way too skilled!

Mitchel pressed his lips together and said, “Really, who would choose to be a ‘lover’ unless they had to?”
Mitchel looked at Raegan earnestly. “So, Miss Foster, when are you planning to make our relationship official?”

“I’m here seeking your help. What does that tell you?”
Raegan pressed on, “So, you’re saying your CEO title is in jeopardy?”
Mitchel’s Lashes drooped slightly, a touch of melancholy in his voice.
“It’s possible.”
