Nine

Channing picked up her cell phone when she saw the caller was Megan. “Hey, Megan, what’s up?”

“Thought I’d ask you the same thing. Rico confessed that he told Zane where you were. Sorry about that.”

Channing eased down on the sofa. “No reason to apologize and yes, Zane showed up on my doorstep yesterday.”

“And?”

“And he claimed he loved me.”

There was an undisputed gasp. “Zane told you that?”

“Yes. But of course I don’t believe him.”

“You don’t?”

“No. It was less than a week ago when he looked me right in the eyes and told me he didn’t love me, that what he felt for me was nothing more than possession. In other words, Zane thinks I’m his and doesn’t want me to belong to another man. Now he wants me to believe he woke up one morning and miraculously realized he loves me. That’s hogwash, and you know it.”

“And you told him you didn’t believe him?”

“Yes, and I asked that he leave.” Channing decided there was no reason to mention she’d had sex with him before he left.

“So now he’s on his way back to Denver?”

There was a pause before Channing said, “Not exactly. He showed up here again this morning.”

“And?”

“And he did a flip-flop on me.”

“Flip-flop? Now he’s saying that he doesn’t love you?”

Channing heard confusion in Megan’s voice, so she tried to explain. “He’s admitting to feeling things for me he hasn’t felt for any other woman. I guess those emotions are confusing him, and he believes that if what he’s feeling isn’t love yet then it’s close to it. He says all he needs is a little push.”

“A little push by whom?”

“Me.”

Megan frowned. She’d never heard anything so ridiculous in her life.

But the more she thought about it, the more she could see Zane’s ploy even if Channing couldn’t. First of all, there was no doubt in her mind that Zane loved Channing. He would not have dropped everything to go after her if he didn’t. Then there was his admission of love. Zane would never admit loving someone if he actually didn’t. And as far as him miraculously waking up one morning and realizing how he felt about Channing—well Channing might not believe it could happen that way, but Megan did.

Channing was dealing with a Westmoreland male, and most Denver Westmoreland males had put up roadblocks when it came to falling in love. Ramsey, Derringer and Riley had fought the idea of falling in love tooth and nail. Even she and her sister Gemma hadn’t given up their hearts easily.

Knowing how that analytical and psychological mind of Zane’s tended to work, Megan knew his plan. He figured that since Channing didn’t believe him, he would show her the evolution. He’d even gone so far as to encourage Channing to spearhead the transformation. Megan hated to admit it, but it was a brilliant strategy—if it worked. And she had a feeling it would work because Zane never failed at anything that he put his mind to. And he had an additional advantage.
