“Why not? You won’t arrange them for yourself. Besides, you’re still young. You should be out having fun. Not spending all your time following a doddery old fool around.”
“You are not a doddery old fool!” she protested. “And maybe I don’t date because I don’t date. Perhaps it’s a choice.”
“Course you do, my dear. You’re just shy.”
Ian made a choking noise and she shot him a dark look. “You be quiet. This has nothing to do with you.”
“Nothing to do with me? I’m the one he wants to take you on a date.”
“You or that other young chap. Good-looking boy.” He nodded over at Jack, who was walking toward them. “Got some depth to him.”
What did that mean?
“I reckon he’d be a good protector, as long as he didn’t eat you first, that is.”
What the heck was he talking about?
“I am not looking to date anyone.” Although an orgasm she didn’t have to give to herself might be nice.
Shoot. She needed to be careful or eventually, she’d say something out loud that she didn’t want anyone to hear.
Ian strode past her without a backward look.
What the heck had gotten into him? Was he that upset that her uncle had suggested that he date her? No doubt, that idea horrified him.
The jerk.
Ian didn’t knowwhat to think as he walked away.
She wouldn’t date him? Why the heck not?
Are you forgetting that you decided she wasn’t the one for you? Or for Jack and Jameson?
Remember what’s important, bringing Jameson back to your relationship.
Finding a woman they all wanted.
“Everything all right?” Jack asked quietly as Maggie and her uncle walked past them. She didn’t even look at him.
Ian just grunted.
“Was it something with Maggie? What did you say to her?”
“What makes you think I said something?”
Jack just shot him a look.
Ian sighed.
“I like her. I’m thinking of asking her on a date.”
Ian nearly stumbled. He put the bags he was carrying down to look at Jack. “No, you aren’t.”
“I think I will.”
“You can’t do that.”
“Why not?” Jack asked.
