CHAPTER 17

Julia

I should have asked Joyce where the lab was before I took off, but when we started talking about Jules’s mom, it brought back terrible memories, and I had to get out of there. As I made my way outside, several people were milling about, so I stopped one of them and asked.

It turned out it was within walking distance, so I tried to enjoy the sunshine and fresh-ish air. But, unfortunately, I must have had my head in the clouds because the next thing I knew, my butt was on the ground.

“Jules? What are you doing?” Denise pulled out her earbuds and helped me up. She was wearing running shorts and a tank top while jogging in place.

It was the first time I’d really seen her body, and I stared in amazement. She was solid, as she easily plowed me over and didn’t even flinch. But she was also sexy. She had the body of an athlete, but with her hair pulled back, I could see she had the bone structure of a model. Her cheeks were high, and her jaw was square, which framed her perfectly pouty lips.

I didn’t even notice I was hurt because her magnetism distracted me. But when I got up, the pain intensified, and I grimaced.

Her stern face was meant to be intimidating, but it was more arousing. My god, I needed to keep my head out of the gutter. I had never thought like this, but it was like I knew I couldn’t have her, and it made me want her so much more.

Maybe that was my problem. I didn’t necessarily want her. It was my innate need to have it all that was making me feel this way. But when her tongue slid out to wet her lips, all of my rationalizations went out the window. There wasn’t a doubt in my mind that I was one hundred percent attracted to her.

“Don’t ignore me,” she snapped, but she had no idea I couldn’t do that if I wanted to.

She was like a target, and my eyes were set on her. But I hoped I wouldn’t be here much longer because I wasn’t sure if I could stay strong.

“I wouldn’t dream of it.” I smiled at how true my words were.

“Then what are you doing here? It seems like you’ve been avoiding me, but then you
