Chapter 9

Light peeked in from behind the blinds, casting slatted shadows across the wall and bed. Natalia extracted herself from Chris’s side, where she’d been planted since they’d fallen into an exhausted sleep.

Her body aches had returned and not the just the delicious stiffness from a night of passion. She glanced at the nightstand where the expired condom wrapper lay by her empty juice glass. No bottle of pain meds. Damn. She’d have to get out of the warm nest to get some.

But there was a slumbering naked man to come back to, so…

She scooted to the edge of the bed and swung her legs down. The covers fell off her and air wafted over her nude body, sending shivers across her skin.

Sliding off, she dropped to the floor to snag her sweatshirt. Wait. It wouldn’t cover her ass, but Chris’s shirt would fall to close to her knees. Then she didn’t have to waste the energy to step into her bottoms.

With his shirt, and surrounded by even more of his scent, she tiptoed downstairs to keep from waking Chris.

A muffled rumbling sound was coming from the living room. She crept to the entry. His phone was vibrating on the end table. She’d bring it up to him when she got her water and meds.

Turning back to the kitchen, she spotted the acetaminophen bottle on the counter. Perfect.

She dug out a capsule and found a glass to fill with water. Tossing back the pain reliever and gulping down the water, she was turning when voices grabbed her attention.

Frowning, she looked around. The main window was in the living room, and thanks to her state of undress, she didn’t want to creep out there any farther than she had to for phone retrieval.

It was Sunday and…she sought out the oven to peek at the time. Whoa. It was almost eleven. She’d wonder how she’d slept that late, but she’d been up in the middle of the night. And busy.

An engine sounded like it was passing by. A faint door slam made Natalia jump and spin around. The water in her stomach swelled like an alien was going to burst out.

Rushed footsteps and the creak of the garage door opening pushed Natalia back into the counter.

Her usual mantra of What Would Valaria Do didn’t come to mind. Not even her fictional wannabe inner tough girl could help her out of this nightmare.

Jaycee rounded the corner. “Dad! I’ve been trying to call—” She stopped so fast her shoes skidded on the hardwood. “Ms. Shaw.”

Jaycee’s gaze swept Natalia from her bedhead down to her bare little toes. Natalia’s breath choked to a standstill in her throat. She couldn’t speak. She wanted to scream. She’d rather an alien bust out of her and spare her the career-ending mistake she’d just been caught with.

“Ms. Shaw.” Scandal dripped from Jaycee’s tone. “You and my dad?” An overnight bag Natalia hadn’t noticed dropped from the girl’s hand.

In her mortification, Natalia couldn’t help but think that Jaycee’s look fit her so much better than the stuffy uniform dress code of the academy.
