Оглавление“Maybe you’re playing a game, but I’m not.”
Lex closed the distance between them, pointing a finger at Grady.
“Yeah, you are, and we need to be honest with one another.”
“Here’s some honesty.” She reached out and yanked the towel off from around his shoulders, trying to startle the calm expression off his face. Why should he feel calm when she didn’t? He didn’t look massively startled by her unexpected action, but his eyes did narrow a little, so she plunged on. “We are not going out. We are not kissing one another. We are going to retreat to our neutral corners and stay there.”
She wadded up the towel and jammed it back at him.
“Whatever. If you need me, I’ll be in my corner.”
“Why would I need you?”
“One thing I’ve discovered in life, Lex, is that you never know who you might need.”
“And that’s where you’re wrong. I will never need you.” She meant it from the core of her being. Because needing Grady would put her in a very vulnerable position.
And Lex did not do vulnerable.
