Then Amy asks, "How are things going with the project? With Knox?"

I freeze.

Kate notices immediately. "What was that?"

"What was what?"

"That look. You just got weird when Amy mentioned Knox."

"I didn't get weird."

"You absolutely did," Amy says, eyes narrowing.

"What happened in Naples?"

My face flushes. "Nothing happened."

"Oh my god, something happened," Kate says, sitting up straighter.

"Winter, did you sleep with Knox Sterling?"

I don't answer, which is answer enough.

Both of them gasp.

"Holy shit," Amy breathes.

"It's not—" I start.

"You slept with your ex-boyfriend's brother?" Kate interrupts, eyes wide.

"It's complicated."

"It's very simple, actually," Amy says.

"You slept with Knox Sterling. Rowan's brother. Your current boss."

I drain the rest of my wine.

"Can we not talk about this right now?"

"Absolutely not," Kate says.

"Ohhhh we'redefinitelytalking about this. When did it happen?"

"Naples."

"This past week?"

"Yes."

"Was it just once?" Amy asks.

I hesitate. "No."

Kate laughs in disbelief. "Oh my god. How many times?"

"I'm not answering that."
