Chapter 18

Emmitt stared at the ceiling as the sun came up, and Evie slept peacefully at his side. At least one of them had rested. He spent most of the night wondering who the fuck he thought he was promising to help Evie fix her problems. Admitting her mother was not a lost cause was by default saying the same thing about his own father. Something he refused to acknowledge. The idea put him at odds with himself in a way that made sleep impossible.

“How long have you been up?” Evie asked through a stretch and yawn.

“Not long,” he lied.

“What’s the matter?” she asked, sitting up, her tiny tank top straps falling off her shoulders, baring her breasts seductively. Whatever ethical dilemma had kept him from sleeping wasn’t going to keep him from touching her now. A man had priorities after all.

“Besides wanting you right now and knowing any second my mother is going to ring the bell for breakfast?” He leaned down and buried his face into her neck, kissing his way down her until he was tugging at the top of her tank top with his teeth.

“You have a bell for breakfast?” She laughed, pushing his head away playfully. “How rich are you guys?”

The ringing of a shrill bell seeped in from the other side of the closed door just as Emmitt parted her legs.

“Time to eat,” she said, drawing in a raspy breath as his mouth came down on the damp cloth of her thong.

“My thoughts exactly,” he growled.

“Emmitt,” a voice called from down the hall.

“Harlan?” he said, shooting his head up quickly.

“Emmitt, I swear to God you better not be defiling my bed, or I’m going to kick your ass.”

He sprang to his feet and shuffled to the door, quickly pulling a T-shirt over his head. “Chill out,” he said, as though she were being ludicrous. “No one is doing anything to your old bed.”

He swung the door open and kept his lower body, raging hard-on included, angled behind it. “What are you doing here?”

“Don’t tell her,” Harlan demanded in a low voice. “Don’t tell Mom that I saw Dad yesterday. He asked me not to mention it to her.”

“And since when do we take orders from him? He doesn’t get to decide what happens with Mom.” Emmitt had already decided his mother shouldn’t know yet, but he wouldn’t allow it to look as though that was some gift to his father.

“He was afraid it would upset her. He knows how she can be, and he didn’t want to make it any worse.” Harlan had a hand propped up on her hip as she made her case, but it meant nothing to Emmitt.

“You’re going to stop me from telling her?” He stuck his chest out and glared at her.

“Yes,” she shouted, then quieted again, afraid she might be heard. “You know it’ll bother her, and she doesn’t need that right now. Things have been under control. Dad had good intention with his visit. Why can’t you
