Six hours and eight clean suites later, Nalani was changing back into her street clothes. Her lack of sleep the night before had caught up with her—combined with the huge relief of knowing she would no longer need to watch out for Henry Ainsworth—resulting in an undeniable urge to take a long nap.

For the briefest of moments, she considered going up to Shane’s newly cleaned suite to spend the evening watching on the big-screen TV. She could order room service and soak in the whirlpool. She suspected he wouldn’t mind, but as tempting as it was, the horrifying possibility of being there when Shane brought some other woman back to his bed that night after a night out hobnobbing with the rich and famous was unbearable. Her brain said he wouldn’t do that to her, but her heart couldn’t risk it.

Anyway, her houseplants had to be dying without being watered for a week, and she desperately needed to do a load of laundry. She didn’t have that many clothes, to begin with, and on the off chance she changed her mind and actually went out for dinner with Shane one night this week, she wanted to wash her one little black dress that was presently cum stained.

True to his word, Roger walked Nalani to her car. It had been days since she’d left the property. The stale air in her sedan was steaming in the late afternoon California sunshine. Just before taking her seat behind the wheel, Nalani turned to Roger, emotions threatening to overwhelm her as she hugged the tall man.

“I can’t thank you enough for your help today, Roger. It means so much to me that you and Miguel… well, everyone, really… you believed me, and I won’t have to see Henry Ainsworth ever again.”

“I just wish I’d seen what was happening on the monitor as it was going down. I’ve watched the footage several times now, and I get angrier each time when I see him manhandling you and dragging you down the hallway.”

“I just hope the press doesn’t get ahold of the story. I’d hate to bring a scandal to our doorstep.”

“Who knows, and who cares if they do? We have the security footage and made sure he knew damn well we’d go public with it if he tries to shift the blame on you.”

“Wow. You guys did all that for me?” Nalani was in awe of the support she was receiving. She’d always known she worked with wonderful people, but everyone was being so kind.

“Hell, yes. I do hope the news doesn’t get out if only because we understand how private you are. I mean, you aren’t even going public with the good news about dating Shane Covington, so we know you don’t want this to get out.”

“Wait. You all know about that?”

“It’s a little hard not to notice,” Roger chuckled. “Your car hasn’t left the property in days, and remember, we do monitor the security feed both upstairs and…” Roger paused before blushing and adding, “Downstairs.
