A knock at the door drew Ashleigh’s attention away from Bell’s comment.
“Just a sec, Bell, someone’s at the door.”
Opening the door, she was surprised to see Galen standing on the other side.
“Good morning, Ashleigh,” he smiled.
“Galen,” she returned the smile, “nice to see you too.”
“Galen?” Bell called through the phone. “Is that my sexy husband at your door?”
“It is your husband, yes,” Ashleigh laughed into the phone.
Galen’s eye lit up, and Ashleigh could swear she saw a tail swishing behind him for a moment.
“Is that Bell?” he asked with a brightness she didn’t know he was capable of.
“Yes, it’s Bell,” Ashleigh laughed.
“Ash… hey Ash!” Bell called.
“What?” Ashleigh asked.
“Tell him I want to sink his battleship,” Bell said with a giggle.
Ashleigh furrowed her brows and looked back at Galen. He lifted his brows and tilted his head slightly as though he knew Bell had said something about him.
But the way Bell had giggled had Ashleigh concerned.
