“I did not,” she said forcefully, which was true.
Hazel Eyes did not believe her at all. She didn’t care.
It was time she took charge.
She had maybe another ten minutes before her next installment if she was lucky.
Chapter Six
Panic whirled aroundher like a black cloud. She had to get out of there. This time for real and immediately.
“Look. I already told you who am I. I have nothing to do with whatever you have going on with my neighbor.” She congratulated herself on not calling Morgan her friend. “I’m going to leave and you can carry on with whatever it is you’re doing here.” To make her point she waved her hand around Morgan’s ransacked living room.
She started to walk backward.
Then promptly fell over an ottoman she knew was there but had forgotten in her haste to escape. She expected to hit the floor with a painful thud, her head banging on the hardwood floors, and possibly lose consciousness in the process too.
Except this time she never met the floor. Gray Eyes and stern demeanor caught her before she tumbled over. Her robe opened and she flashed a good portion of her naked thigh. Trying her hardest to keep her modesty intact, she simultaneously tried to jerk free of him and conceal her nakedness with the robe.
Then the worst thing happened yet again. The whirring inside her started up again. She couldn’t do this again.
“Arg,” she shouted. Up to now, she had resisted the urge to scream for help. They would probably gag her before anyone heard her. She didn’t stand a chance against them except maybe in the wit department. It was time she came clean, haha, and then they’d see it was just a case of wrong place wrong time.
She pulled herself up and stomped her feet.
“Okay look. I don’t know where Morgan is. Like I said I live next door. I’m not his girlfriend. That’s not why I’m standing here naked underneath my robe.” She had to tell them the truth. They looked like really busy men with zero patience for drama theatrics and that was what her situation was in a nutshell.
“I’m here in my gown and nothing else because I had an emergency. I... I was playing...” Fuck, wrong word. “I was using a toy and it broke off and I needed someone to fix... to drive me to the ER.” She almost mentioned her phone, which was still deeply nestled in the robe’s pocket. She either had to hide it from their sight or escape before they discovered it on her person. “I need to get it removed. It tends to malfunction at random intervals.
“I saw the lights on here, I thought Morgan was home and that’s why I’m here. I’m basically having a medical emergency and it might become serious if I don’t get seen immediately. That is the only reason I came over here. It really is just a case of wrong place wrong time. So I’m going to leave and get myself to the ER another way.”
“What kind of toy?”
Her exit was now yet again blocked. Big bad bullies.
Right.
