Chapter Twelve

Olivia slipped the two vials of blood she’d collected from her patient on the way in to the office that morning into the packing bag and sealed it. She stuffed the test order form into the attached pouch and placed it in the refrigerator where it would wait for pick up at the end of the day. Out of nowhere, the image of Eion leaning over her, the feel of his lips as they brushed hers, slammed into her head, swamping Olivia with sensation. She swayed, but captured the door handle of the fridge before stumbling.

Her pulse raced.

Air rushed in and out of her lungs on heated breaths.

Her breasts ached.

Oh, God. This was so not good.

The memory had plagued her all night, and she’d tossed and turned, barely catching an hour or two of sleep. Shit. She had to get him out of her mind.

“But I don’t regret kissing you. And I won’t forget…either one of your kisses.” His declaration bounced around inside of her mind like some out of control missile looking for a target to unload its payload of disaster.

The way he’d looked at her when he’d spoken the words…he’d made her feel as if all she had to do was say the word, and he would have tossed her over his shoulder, whisked her away, and taken her to a place she’d never been.

If only she were at a different place in her life. Maybe… Yet Eion had no plans to stay in Little Crow, and how much did she really know about him? He’d hinted at some mysterious responsibility to his family that had kept him from contacting them for more than ten years, but he hadn’t gone into detail.

After yesterday, she was more confused than ever. One man offered her love, security, and the stability she’d long thought she wanted. She adored him. The other offered her excitement and passion, but she had no idea about his heart. Did he even care about her or was it all about lust? She couldn’t let the implications of what Eion had said get under her skin, because a disaster would be the result of letting things go too far. Olivia could lose her best friend, her business partner, and be responsible for breaking Taylor’s heart. God, she didn’t want to be the woman who hurt him like that.

“Hey, baby.” A pair of hands gripped her arms. She jerked.

“Whoa!” Taylor turned her around by her shoulders and chuckled. “I didn’t mean to startle you. You must have been a thousand miles away.”

She released a long sigh. “Yeah, I guess so,” she added with an attempt at a laugh. “I didn’t hear you come in.”

“I could tell.” He placed a quick kiss to her forehead. “I came in through the back a minute or two ago, passed by, and noticed you in here.” He reached around her head and pulled her ponytail forward, threading his fingers through the strands. “I know what you were doing… You were fantasizing about us, huh? The weekend is only a few hours away.
