As Harper sat back into the bed and told Nina all about her time with Axel, leaving out some of the juicier details—especially the ones that included him being a bear—something strange happened. The more she talked, the more a sense of peace came over her. Where she’d been frantic and uneasy not long before, now as she spoke about Axel, everything just felt right.

It was ridiculous that she could have feelings for a man so quickly, but that’s exactly what was happening. She definitely had feelings. Even Nina had noticed.

“You like him,” she teased and nudged Harper in the ribs. “You really like him.”

“I do.” She didn’t even try to hide the smile that crossed her face. “I know it’s crazy, but—”

“Why is it crazy?”

“Because it’s all happening so fast. I’m not supposed to fall in love so quickly and with a…it doesn’t make any sense.”

“It doesn’t have to make sense.” Nina flopped on the bed and propped her head up with her hand. “And who says you aren’t supposed to fall in love so quickly? Where is that rule written?”

Harper shook her head. She knew what Nina was saying, but still…it was ludicrous to fall for someone so quickly. Especially when there was no way a relationship could work. They were from two different worlds. “Weren’t you just saying a minute ago that it was probably just good sex that was clouding my brain?”

Nina shrugged. “That was before I heard you talk about him,” she said with a smile on her face. “It’s written all over you. You love him. Even I can see that.”

“It’s just that, logically, this can’t work out.”

“Logically?” Nina snorted. “Who said there was anything logical about love?”

“I don’t know why you keep saying that. It’s not like it’s love.”

“Then what is it?”

She couldn’t answer that because whatever she said would be a lie. It was love. It was definitely love and it didn’t matter if it made sense or not.

She loved him.

Instead of answering, Harper buried her face in a pillow and let out a little scream while Nina laughed. When Nina took the pillow away, Harper was laughing as well. “It’s all so crazy.”

“Yes, it is,” her best friend agreed. “And so fantastic. You’re way overdue for some crazy.”

Harper couldn’t disagree with that. But despite all the happy feelings, she was still confused about a few details and she needed to find Axel and talk to him. There were a few things that still bothered her. And one really big, furry, animalistic thing.

“Hey.” Harper scooted back on the bed. “Do you think you can do something for me? Can you head down to the Den and tell Axel I want to talk to him? I just want to freshen up before I do.”

“How’s your foot?”

Dammit. She’d forgotten about her foot. She wiggled it a bit. “It’s actually feeling better. It’ll be okay.” It was only a small lie. It was feeling better. A lot better. She probably shouldn’t be walking on it, but she needed to see Axel.
