Chapter Eight

Sun streamed in through the windows of Sway, the same restaurant where Sara had made her fatal decision to seduce Ryan after getting drunk that first night. It was giving her a headache. Despite her thoughts running in circles, Sara did manage to get a couple of hours sleep once she got back to the hotel, but it hadn’t done much good.

Now, in the light of day, some of those things were clearly nothing but products of her imagination. After all, who would be thinking straight when their only living relative had been attacked like that? Werewolves indeed.

Deluded much? Sara took a sip of her water and swallowed the disturbing thought down with it.

Hailey was right; she did owe it to Ryan to talk face-to-face. She’d still had no idea what she wanted to do about him, but before she lost her nerve, Sara had called to invite him to lunch.

Coming down in the elevator, she’d decided it was best to make a clean break of things. Then she’d seen him standing outside the restaurant and nearly melted. How could she have even considered cutting this man loose from her life?

Sitting across from Ryan now, she was even more confused. First, he’d inquired after Hailey and hung on every word as she updated him. She’d then apologized for being rude the night before…and he’d blushed. He’d been glued to her every word since and had been a complete gentleman the whole time. Other than a chaste peck on the cheek and a guiding hand at her lower back as they’d made their way to the table, he hadn’t touched her. It was killing her. She physically ached for the ease they’d shared only yesterday.

Sara Eileen, you are so not ready to end this.

You have to. You’re not ready to deal with what you’re feeling either.

Ryan tossed her one of his lopsided smiles, and Sara shoved the doubt back into the dark corner it had crawled out of.

Ryan finally reached for her hand for the first time since they’d sat down and the section of her brain taking her heart’s side cheered.

“Sara, everything okay? You seem distracted?”

Ryan’s deep voice was as comforting as a warm shower in winter, damn it. “Sorry, I didn’t sleep well, but no, otherwise I’m fine.” Liar, and it doesn’t look like he got any more sleep than you.

A meal Sara barely touched and three cups of coffee later, Ryan finally reached for her hand for the first time since they’d sat down and the section of her brain taking her heart’s side cheered.

“Good, because there are some things we need to talk about.” With those words, Ryan’s whole demeanor changed from day to night in a flash. Sara had never imagined he could look so grim, and suddenly, the last thing she wanted to do was talk.

“No, it’s okay. We’re fine.” She glanced around and spotted the waitress. “Check please?”

Ryan’s fingers tightened around hers. “No, we really do, and somewhere a hell of a lot more private.
