Realizing what was happening, Ian Sinclair quickly shut the door and hurried toward the reception area.
Mia Grant was fast asleep on the sofa. Her phone had fallen onto the carpet beside her at some point, but she hadn't noticed.
As he drew near, Ian Sinclair lightened his steps, his eyes full of joy as he crouched down in front of her.
His gaze carefully traced the lines of her brows and eyes.
Outside, he was a big bad wolf, all bluster and pride, but now he had suddenly transformed into a pure, harmless, loyal puppy, quietly watching over his master.
While his master rested, he didn't make a sound, simply watching in silence from the side, his gaze practically glued to her.
Mia Grant woke up on her own, feeling as if she had been asleep for a very, very long time. With that realization, she startled awake as if from a nightmare. Staring at the dim, unfamiliar surroundings, she froze for a moment before scrambling to find her phone.
