Probably. She also knew that she better answer him before he sent Webb to check on her.
Keira:Yes. I’m fine, no pain. Yes. And none of your business.
Bossy Boss Man:If you’re peeing a lot, I need to know.
Keira:No, you don’t.
She neededto get him off this track.
Keira:Webb taught me how to play poker. I’m better at it than I was at Pictionary. I suck at that.
Bossy Boss Man:I’m sure you weren’t that bad.
Keira:I am. I think a dog could do a better job than I could.
Bossy Boss Man:That would be a clever dog.
Keira:Or I’m just a dumb Kiki.
Bossy Boss Man:You’re not to put yourself down. Not unless you want to find yourself in trouble.
She set the phone down,breathing in deep as a rush of arousal rushed through her. This was a dangerous game to play, and she knew she should walk away.
Trouble is, she was already in too deep.
Bossy Boss Man:Do you miss me?
She still couldn’t reply,even though she knew the answer.
And it terrified her.

The doorto her room opened. Sheesh. Did no one ever knock around here?
Honey walked in, carrying a package. Great. Her favorite person.
“Something arrived for you. From Zander, I guess.” She set it down on the table. And stared at Keira.
“Is something wrong?”
“Look, I don’t mean to be a bitch to you.”
Umm.
“It’s just . . . Zander isn’t meant to feel anything for you!”
“Because you want him to feel something for you?” she asked.
“What? No! I’m not good enough for him, either.”
What?
“Zander is a great guy. He deserves the best. Can you honestly say that’s you?”
Whoa. Ouch.
“Nothing has happened between me and Zander,” she told her. Although she wasn’t sure she was telling the truth. There was something going on between the two of them, she just wasn’t sure what it was exactly.
