Ian started swearing quietly, his face filled with thunder while Jack began cracking eggs into a bowl.
She really hoped that all those eggs weren’t for her. But she decided not to say anything.
Wow. She had excellent self-control.
“Here. This needs to go against the cut.” Ian pressed the big pad to her foot.
“It’s stopped bleeding. I’m sure it’s fine.” She attempted to move away, but he just glared at her.
She froze, staring at his deep blue eyes.
“Stay still.”
“Yes, Sir.”
Crap. Why did that keep happening? And she swore that the tension in his shoulders eased as she called him ‘Sir’.
That wasn’t normal.
“Sir Pimply-butt,” she told him.
Okay. She was losing it.
“What did you just call me?”
“Nothing,” she squeaked out as his gaze narrowed.
Sanity wasn’t her strong point, it seemed. After years of training to end up being the biggest disappointment in her family tree, she’d finally lost her mind at the young age of twenty-five.
Perfect.
The doorbell rang and she jumped. “I’ll just go get that.”
“You’ll do no such thing,” Ian replied. “You’ll sit here with that pressed to your foot. It will be Jameson. He can patch you up while you eat.”
Wonderful. Someone else to witness her humiliation.
Just what the doctor ordered.
Ian left the room as Jack worked at the stove. When Ian returned, he was accompanied by a blond-haired, incredibly gorgeous man. He looked a bit tired, his hair was a tad too long, and he had a five o’clock shadow on his face.
But none of that detracted from his beauty.
He wore a pair of dark jeans and a nicely-pressed shirt. Seriously, who looked that put-together at close to midnight?
“Are you a figment of my imagination?” she asked, her pulse racing.
Mr. Perfect raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Your imagination?
Do you often think about strange men?”
“Less often than I’d like to,” she said with a sigh. “You really remind me of someone. Have I seen you before?”
It was tugging at her brain, but she was too worn down to capture the thought.
“I think I’d remember seeing you,” he replied with a grin and a wink.
Ohh. So charming.
