“I’m healed,” Meri told Betina the next morning as she poured milk over her cereal. “Seriously, if I had a limp, it would be gone.”

Betina looked her over. “Based on the smirk and the glow, I’m going to guess you and Jack did the wild thing last night.”

Meri sighed with contentment. “We did. It was fabulous. Better than I imagined, which is hard to believe. I feel like a new woman. A new woman with really, really clear skin!”

Betina laughed. “Okay. Good for you.”

“Any progress with Colin?”

“No. I watched a movie and he spent the evening on his computer. Then we went to bed separately.”

Meri felt her fabulous mood fade a little. “That sucks. You need to talk to him.”

“I’m not taking advice from you.”

“Why not? My plan is working perfectly. Jack has had me and now he wants more. But he’s not going to get any more. I’m walking away.”

“Really?”

“Absolutely.”

“And you don’t feel a thing?”

“I’m a little sore,” Meri said with a grin.

Betina slowly shook her head. “Okay. Then I was wrong. I guess you don’t have any feelings for him. If you’re not thinking about being with him again or wanting to hang out with him, then you are healed. Yay you.”

Her friend poured coffee and walked out of the kitchen. Meri stared after her.

She didn’t have feelings for Jack. Okay, sure, he was a friend and, as such, she would always have a soft spot for him. She was also willing to admit that not sleeping with him again might be difficult, but only because it had been so darned good. Not because she felt any kind of emotional connection.

But as she thought the words, she felt a little ping in her heart. One that warned her something might not be right.

“I don’t care about him,” she told herself. “I don’t.”

Which was a good thing, because falling for him would totally ruin her attempts at revenge.

She finished her cereal, rinsed the bowl and put it in the dishwasher. Then she walked into the dining room.

Someone rang the bell at the front door. She frowned. It was too early for the rest of the team, not to mention a delivery. So who on earth…?

She walked to the front of the house and opened the door. Her mind went blank as she stared at the man standing there. The man who swept her into his arms and kissed her.

“Hey, babe,” he said.

She swallowed. “Andrew. This is a surprise.”
