Something hot flared to life.

Faith wanted to respond, but she was afraid.

He held her forearms tightly. “I am not one of your cats,” he said.

“I know.”

“I don’t think you do.”

It was dangerous to think of Cort as a man, because he tempted Faith. He made her think of family and forever, and she’d learned long ago that she didn’t have what it took to inspire a man to want either.

His grip on her loosened, and she jerked away. She thrust a bandage at him. “Here. Finish it yourself.” Then she fled the room.
