By the time Luc got out of the shower and dried off, he was beginning to see the humor in the situation, in spite of the fact that he had a hard-on that could drive nails. Damn, but she pissed him off! He had to admit, though, Tia had gotten the last word.

She was absolutely right. He didn’t know her. Not as she was now. He’d loved the child as the daughter he might someday have, remembered the teenager with fondness, and had anticipated her promise as a beautiful adult. He’d heard stories from Ulrish of the woman she’d become, but he didn’t really know Tia. He wanted her. He desired her as he’d never desired anyone in his life, but he had no idea what the adult Tia, the woman, was like.

She was a teacher. Luc had no idea what she taught. She’d studied in Boston, lived somewhere in that city for the past few years at least, but what had she done when she was there? What were her hobbies, her interests? She’d been with Shannon, her friend and lover, but why had they separated? What had really brought Tia home?

Luc slipped on a pair of worn denims and an old flannel shirt he found in the closet. The shirt hung loosely on his body, which meant it must have been one of Tinker’s, but he rolled up the sleeves, tucked the tail into his jeans, and headed down the stairs.

Tia stood in front of the stove. She’d wrapped one of the guys’ old bathrobes around herself and tied her hair back in a frizzy ponytail. When she looked up at him and smiled, Luc paused midstep.

She looked all of sixteen. Innocent, sweet, nothing like the alpha bitch who’d cut him off at the balls just a short time ago. Bemused and grinning like an idiot, Luc wandered into the kitchen, leaned over, and kissed her on the cheek she turned to him.

“I’m sorry.”

Tia’s head snapped around. “What? Did I just hear an apology?” She slapped her palm to her heart.

“Yeah. Don’t get used to it.” Luc leaned over and sniffed at the sausage cooking beside perfectly fried potatoes. His woman could cook? Another thing he didn’t know about her.

“Well? What are you apologizing for?”

“Uh, well…pulling a switch in midbattle? You were right. That’s cheating.”

“All’s fair in love and war.” Tia smiled, turned back to the stove, and carefully rolled over the sausages to finish browning.

“Okay. I guess.” Even more off-balance, Luc poured himself a cup of coffee. Tia was right. He didn’t have a clue what she was really all about.

He had two more days before the guys arrived to discover exactly what made Tia tick.
