    Chapter Six
     
    Trinity got ready for the new day, not wanting to step outside her tiny apartment. She knew Drew would most likely be there and she didn’t know how long she was going to be able to resist his charm. It was easier for her when he was being demanding and arrogant but when he turned on the sex appeal, she was a goner. She was hoping he’d take the hint and disappear for a while, so she didn’t have to fight him and herself too. The baby kicked her hard in the ribs, as if she didn’t like the thought. She rubbed her belly and whispered soothingly to her daughter.
    She was always starving in the mornings but didn’t have the energy to fix much, so she grabbed a muffin and poured herself a large glass of milk and got ready for her day. She’d be alone at the shop all day and noticed it was starting to bother her. She needed to hire a couple people but she didn’t want to pay out the money until she absolutely had to. She was thinking it may be a better idea to work for someone else so she could at least be around other employee’s. Even though it had been her dream to own her own place, she was finding it lonely.
    She walked the few blocks to her shop, looking around everywhere, a bit disappointed not to see Drew. She scowled at herself for that thought as well. She didn’t want him to be around and she needed to always remember that. She blamed her disappointment on her hormones, since they were going crazy.
    She turned her key in the lock and flipped the open sign around. She always took such pride when walking through the front doors because it was all hers. She had worked hard to make her dream come true and took a lot of pride in the small but beautiful shop. Her touch was present in every square inch of the room.
    She put her purse away and stepped back to the floral station, to begin making some bouquets for walk in clients. She had a few orders needing to be delivered but other than that, it was a slow day.
    The bell over her door rang and she looked up to see Drew striding inside, looking far too good for so early in the morning. She should’ve known he wouldn’t wait long before stalking her again. She was surprised though, by the instant quickening of her heart.
    “Good morning, how are you today?” he asked her, as if they were strangers. She looked at him suspiciously, wondering what he was up to.
    “I’m fine and yourself?” she asked.
    “I’m wonderful. I’m in need of several bouquets,” he responded, before sticking out his hand. “My name is Andrew Titan but my friends all call me Drew. I own several resorts and am in need of a new florist,” he said with a completely straight face.
    “What are you up to, Drew?” she asked, far too tired for games.
    “I decided we need to start over from scratch, so here I am, being completely honest,” he told her, with a twinkle in his eyes. She found it really hard to resist the man when he was acting so charming. She decided to play along for the moment.
    “It’s nice to meet you, Drew. I’d love to help you with some arrangements,” she said and took his still outstretched hand. She wasn’t prepared for the fire that shot down her arm from his simple touch. She tried pulling away but he held on tightly. The man should have a warning label attached to him. He was seriously dangerous to the female libido.
    “The pleasure is all mine,” he said in the sexiest voice she’d ever heard.
    “What kind of arrangements do you need?” she asked, finally managing to pull her hand free. She had to resist the urge to rub it against her leg.
    “I’ll leave that up to you. I have three orders I need sent to prospective investors and I want to send a huge one to my cousin’s wife. She gave birth a while ago and I realized I never sent flowers. That kid is the cutest thing ever and she deserves the biggest arrangement you can possibly make,” he said.
    Trinity was surprised by his request. He’d gone all soft eyed
