Anna hardly slept, tossing and turning. One minute she wanted to run and find Alex and fling herself into his arms. The next minute she wanted to find him and hit him again. Her heart ached for him and she hated him at the same time.

The questions that raced through her head when she left the hotel continued. He lied! He hid himself from her! Was he trying to get his jollies off by taking advantage of her need for sex? How many other women did he sleep with while he was here? Why didn’t he call her as soon as he’d escaped? How could he claim to love her if he kept himself away from her?

At long last, the sun came up and she stared at the light growing brighter on the ceiling above her bed. She hadn’t heard Aaron come home last night. Where had he gone?

She got up and went to his bedroom. Cameron was there, asleep, but no Aaron, so she went to find her phone and called him.

It took a few rings before he answered in a very groggy voice. “Hello?”

“Aaron, are you okay?”

“Huh? Oh...yeah...fine....”

“Where are you?”

“Um...Alex’s place.”

“You’re with Alex?” What was he doing there?

There was a pause. “Yeah, I came here last night and we started talking until I couldn’t keep my eyes open. I slept on the couch.” Another pause. “Anna, he has a really good reason for not coming to us when—”

Anna felt her temper flare. Aaron had already talked to Alex. Alex had talked to Aaron, but not her? “I don’t care, Aaron.” She ended the call and tossed the phone on her bed. At least, she told herself she didn’t care.

But she did. She wanted to know why he hid himself.
