Should I take him to the doctor?

What’s his temperature?

100.7

Just give him some ibuprofen.

Do you have some in the house? I can have it delivered.

I have it.

I’ll give it to him.

Is everything else okay?

I chew on my lip, staring at his question. Ronan has barely been at the club since baby Julian was born. To be honest, I miss him. Even with everyone else there, it doesn’t feel the same without him.

Part of me wants to open up about the situation with Clay and Jade. I never shared things with him, even when I knew I could. At the time, Ronan and Daisy were getting married and expecting a baby. I wouldn’t bother him with drama at work with a client.

Everything is fine.

Have you given thought to Emerson’s offer?

Oh no. Not you too.

I’ll be the last one to pressure you into something you don’t want.

But you’d be great at it.

And you deserve more.

Are you done?

Yes.

I told him I’d think about it, and I am.

Good.

Let us know if you need anything for Jack.

Give him some medicine, and he’ll be fine.

Thank you.

Jack is starting to stir next to me, so I press my hand to his forehead. It’s hot to the touch.

When he peels his eyes open, he squints up at me as he asks, “Do I have a fever?”

“Yes,” I reply, combing his hair back with my fingers.

“Do I have to take more medicine?” He screws his face up in disgust.

“I’m afraid so.”

With a whine, he covers his face with his hands and rolls under the covers to hide. “I don’t wanna!”

Great. This won’t be easy.
