For the first time in all the lovemaking they’d done, Zach fell asleep first. Brandi would have loved to snuggle up against him and close her eyes, but she had a mission. She still had to bring down her father and even though her original plan hadn’t worked, she felt she was best suited to make this happen.

She slid out of the bed as slowly as she could. Zach only stirred once, but he didn’t wake up. The wound must have taken a piece out of his energy. The sex did, too, even if she’d been on top for the duration. That hadn’t been her plan to tire him out and then leave, but she took advantage of it.

She found her clothing and her phone and sent a text to Fred. “I’m coming in to see you.”

“Okay. Does Zach know?”

“No, but I’ll leave him a note.”

“Okay. I’ll send the address for my office.”

Brandi stood in front of the elevator debating if she should call David to drive her. Her car was at her father's. She didn’t want David to get into any trouble. She could call a car service since she wasn’t hiding where she was going. That decided, she scrawled a note for Zach to find then left the penthouse.
