Chapter Nineteen

Severine walked into the kitchen, saw Molly huddled over the kitchen table, deep in conversation with Logan’s mum, and made a hasty, silent retreat. She was desperate for coffee, but didn’t think the kitchen was the best place to be this morning. There would be coffee in the bar.

There was. But there was also Evie, who spotted her before she could escape.

‘Morning, Severine. Well, well, you’ve been back for less than a day and already you’ve got Mum in a panic.’

‘Don’t start, Evie. I’m not in the mood.’

Evie poured her a cup of coffee and tapped the seat beside her with her hand.

‘Want to talk about it? I know we don’t get on, but I’m your sister and I love you. If you’re unhappy and you want to talk, I’m here for you.’

Severine stared at her. ‘Where’s Zachary?’

‘Gone to work. He left before dawn. I stayed the night in his room which is why I didn’t come to my room last night. Did you sleep OK?’

Severine sat beside Evie and cradled the cup of coffee.

‘I’m not sure I slept at all. How do you do it, Evie? How do you sail through life without any complications? Without making waves? I can’t seem to stay out of stormy waters and my life gets more complicated every day.’

Evie looked her in the eye. ‘You do seem to get yourself into a bit of a mess every so often. What’s happened this time? I know it has something to do with Logan Dorset, but I have no idea what.’

‘Where do I start?’

‘Try the beginning. That usually works.’ Evie gave Severine a friendly nudge.

‘I’m not sure where the beginning is. That’s half the problem.’ She sighed and took a gulp of coffee. ‘Did you know I had a crush on Logan when we were younger?’

Evie nodded. ‘Yes. And I always thought he had a crush on you.’

‘Did you? That’s odd, because he was always hanging around you.’

‘I think that was because you terrified the life out of him. Actually, you terrified the life out of me, too.’

They glanced at one another and grinned. ‘I’ve always been a bit of a cow, haven’t I?’

‘You won’t get any argument from me on that count. We all loved you though, in spite of that. We still do.’

‘You may not, when I tell you my latest, heinous crime.’

‘Tell me and we’ll see.’

‘I kissed Logan, last night. More than once. And I think I told him I had a crush on him. In fact, I know I did.’

‘O…K. Why do I get the feeling there’s more to come?’

Severine screwed up her face like a Pug dog.

‘Logan told me he loved me. That he’s always loved me. I mean, really loved me. And he said he still does.’

‘Bloody hell! Poor Logan.’

‘Poor Logan? What about me? I’m in love with Harvey. I’m engaged. I’m expecting our child. So why have I just spent all last night dreaming about bloody, Logan Dorset? Please answer me that. And I’m serious. Why? How
