“That would work just fine.”

“Good night, Keira.”

“Night, Daniel.”

Keira sat for severalmoments, listening to his vehicle drive off.Finally, she attempted to stand, chuckling at herself when she had to tighten her legs enough to walk.After locking the front door, she made her way toward the master bedroom, taking her clothes off as she went.She grabbed her nightgown and panties, taking them into the bathroom to shower and get ready for bed.

Keira kept going over the night.She couldn’t have asked for a better date and hoped this might be going somewhere.She didn’t have much experience, but felt they had something special together.

Minutes after she lay her head down, she could feel sleep pulling at her.She let it drag her down with a smile on her face.

Chapter Ten

The next morning, Keiragrabbed her purse from the passenger seat, made sure the car was locked, and then walked toward the building.

“Hey.”

Keira bit back a scream and twirled around.Her hand fluttered over her chest before pressing against her racing heart.“God, Scott, you scared me.”

Scott stepped forward out of the row of bushes.“I’m sorry.”

For some reason, she didn’t think he was sorry.“What are you doing behind the shop, Scott?”

“I wanted to talk to you.”

“About what?And why couldn’t you have come into the shop to talk?”

“Do you still have a boyfriend?”

“Yes.”

“Who is it?”

“I’m not going to tell you, Scott.I’m sorry, but I need to get to work,” she said and took a few steps toward the back door.
