"I'm sorry I wasn't here and that I missed Scarlett's calls. There was no reception where we were. Stupid network." Marcus was all over me like a rash when he got home and saw that I'd been injured. Kisses, cuddles, soothing words, the lot. My guilty heart wanted nothing more than for him to hold me and erase the last couple of hours from my history. The universe had given me a break the first time around, when he'd interrupted us. That should have been a warning to me that nothing but pain and anguish lay ahead if I continued down that forbidden route. But no, I'd ignored the sign, tempted fate, and now I'd done something despicable. It didn't matter that we'd never progressed further than the kiss, she was his sister, for God's sake! The most important person in his life. The woman who'd practically raised him.

I felt like crap!

"It's not that bad. A doctor came by, did his thing, and I'll be fine. Back on my feet in no time. I managed to get upstairs, didn't I?"

"Why couldn't you have just stayed downstairs with Scarlett? You said she brought you there."

I looked away guiltily. "I wanted to be in our bed, you know."

"You must think I'm a useless bastard for being away while this was happening."

I stroked his face. "Of course not. How could you have known this idiot right here was going to forget that she's crap at horse-riding and go out and get herself hurt?"

He laughed. "No more horse-riding for you."

"That's right. I'm not going near another horse again, or a stable. And I hate squirrels now, too."

He frowned, then I explained what happened, how a squirrel freaked Paddington out, prompting him to toss me from his back.

"Who was the doctor that came around?" he asked a little later.

"Patrick he said his name was."

"Blond guy? Really tall, looks like he could be a basketball player?"

"Yeah, you know him?" Curiosity had gotten the better of me, and I wanted to fish for the scoop on Dr. Patrick and his relation to Scarlett. I couldn't help myself.

"Scarlett's friend. Cool guy. Rides cars in his spare time. There are roads in Germany that have no speed limit. He goes there a lot."

None of that interested me. I just wanted to know who he was to her. Trying for casual, I said, "They looked kinda close. You think they're...?"

He shrugged. "No idea. But they'd make cute kids. Wouldn't mind him as a brother-in-law."

Nausea swelled in my stomach, but I smiled weakly and said nothing.
