Groggy and still half asleep, she automatically reached a hand out to where her alarm clock should have been and felt around to turn it off. “Mmpft,” a deep, masculine voice sounded from next to her as she brushed a lock of silky hair that was not hers. Her eyes flew open and Kiera jerked back, startled. The phone rang again and Hayden lifted his head, one eye cracked to glance around. “Mornin’,” he mumbled, his voice thick with sleep. Kiera’s heart returned almost to its normal speed. “You almost scared the life out of me,” she said breathlessly. Ducking her hands beneath the warmth of the covers, she scooted closer toward Hayden to wrap her arms around his waist. Without even looking at the phone Hayden picked up the receiver and mumbled into it as his other arm snaked around her shoulder and drew Kiera’s body flush against his. “Yeah,” Hayden said huskily. Kiera smiled seductively, her mind and body both waking up slowly now. Her face and neck itched slightly and she felt certain she would have a bit of stubble burn.
