it seemed like a really good time to

close my eyes and let the

encroaching darkness consume me.

I woke to a sharp stinging on the

back of my head.

“Ow, stop,” I muttered, waving

my arm blearily in an effort to halt

the pain.

“Shh. If you refuse to go to the

hospital, the cut has to be cleaned.”

My arm was caught in a gentle

but firm grip and the stinging

recommenced.

I gritted my teeth, fully awake

now, and stared ahead at my

surroundings. Blane had brought me

to his bedroom, where I lay on my

side while he medicated the wound.

I hoped I wasn’t getting the duvet on

his bed dirty. I felt gross. My jeans

were covered in dust, as was my

hair,

which

had

the

added

attractiveness of being matted with

dried blood. Not one of my best

looks. Blane had removed my

shoes, which was a good thing since

they’d been covered in dust, too.

My head was clearer now, and I

remembered the argument in the

library. What had happened after I

passed out? Blane was angry with

Kade, but it hadn’t been Kade’s

fault I’d been there when someone

had tried to kill him. It was my fault

they’d even found him in the first

place.

“There, that should take care of

it,” Blane said quietly. “Feel any

better?”

I carefully turned toward him. He

brushed the backs of his knuckles

against my cheek. I nodded, unsure

what to say from here. Tonight had

been a strange night.

“Good.” His hand moved down

my arm to lightly grasp my palm,

slotting his fingers with mine.

“Are you and Kade okay?” I

didn’t mean physically.

Blane didn’t answer for a

moment, his gaze still on our

entwined hands. Finally, he said,

“That’s not important right now.”

He lifted his eyes to mine. “What’s

important is that you and I are

okay.” A pause. “Are we?”

I slowly shook my head. “Not if

you and Kade aren’t.”

Blane studied me. “Why are you

so insistent on this?”

“Because,” I sputtered. “You’re

family. Brothers. I won’t come

between you.”

Blane sighed. “We’ve disagreed

before, Kat, and I’m sure we will

again. That doesn’t stop making us

brothers.”

His words reassured me, but I

still felt compelled to add, “I don’t

feel about Kade the way he feels

about me. I just want you to know

that.”

Blane looked at me, really

looked at me, until I wanted to

squirm.

“What?” I asked in frustration.

“You don’t believe me?”

“I believe you,” he said. “But

your point of view and Kade’s may

be . . . drastically different.”

I held his gaze. “I’m not going to

lie to you,” I said firmly. “I care

about him. He’s a good man,

underneath everything. I don’t want

anything to happen to him, not least

because of what that would do to

you.”

“You wouldn’t be the kind of

person I know you to be if you

didn’t care what happened to

Kade,” he said.

That brought a tiny smile to my

face and I breathed a sigh of relief.

My resolve to kick Kade’s ass the

next time he made some suggestive

remark

or

innuendo

was

strengthened. I wasn’t going to let

him goad me into doing something

that would hurt all three of us.

At my insistence, Blane helped

me into the shower. There was no

way I was going to sleep like this,

and he was waiting for me when I

got out. He didn’t suggest I go to a

different room, and I didn’t say

anything either. I climbed into bed

beside him and crawled into his

waiting

arms.
