Zachary was careful to watch his weight, refusing to let himself go and become overweight.

Serenity wished him goodnight before turning on her heel to leave.

Zachary called after her.

Zachary looked at her and said, “Please don’t walk around in your pajamas next time.”

She was not wearing a bra underneath her pajamas. Unfortunately, his eagle eyes picked up on that.
