His words hit her like a slap in the face. “No. I’m not sleeping with him. How could you even ask me that?”

“You two sure looked cozy the other morning on the boardwalk.”

Apprehension tickled the back of her neck. “You were spying on me?”

He stood, his eyes wide with shock as he quickly backpedaled. “Whoa, no, no. I was out for a run. I saw you on the boardwalk, was gonna come sweep you off your feet, but Dr. Monroe slithered in before I could say anything.”

Her tension eased. She needed to calm down, trust him. “Blake and I just had coffee. Friends have coffee.” The echo of Blake’s words tasted false in her mouth.

“That’s not what he wants, sweetheart. Any man who says he wants to be just friends with you is lying. Unless he’s gay.”

She gritted her teeth, trying to get her bearings and figure out which way to steer the conversation. This was the second time he’d blown something completely out of proportion.

“Well, whatever he wants doesn’t matter. I’m pretty sure I get a say in who I date, Donovan.”

“You’re dating me.” His eyes fixed on hers, burning with defiance.

“And you seem to keep forgetting that I don’t want anyone else. You’ve got to trust me. I’m not running around behind your back.”

“I don’t like you seeing him, sweetheart.”

His hands reached up to cup her face, but she flinched on reflex. “I’ll do what I want. If you can’t trust me, maybe we’re not right for each other.”

She watched as the arrogant mask of the old Donovan slipped into place. The only indication of his annoyance was the pulsing muscle in his jaw as he ground his teeth.

“Come on, Angela’s waiting.” He placed a hand on her low back again, pressing her toward the door.

“No. I’m suddenly not feeling well. Take me home, please.”
