Book Excerpt:

Sasha returned to help Noah make plates. She was jittery and darting glances toward the hallway, looking for Ricky.

"I should leave," Noah insisted with his sea glass studying her.

"No, it's fine." She exhaled her nervous energy.

"I'm intruding," he said and he nodded towards the bedrooms.

Sasha took a deep breath. "I'm sorry. We're probably making you uncomfortable." She tried to imagine watching herself run and catapult her body onto Ricky and attempt to suck his face off. She'd want to leave too. She took a deep breath. "I would like for you to stay. But I know you've had a long week and probably miss sleeping in a real bed. At least take some food if you go."

Noah nodded. "Thank you. I think that vill be best. You two need time alone."

She helped him put food in a container. She felt awful.

Ricky walked in and set his phone on the counter. "It smells delicious," he said. He hadn't even glanced at the food, his eyes were zeroed in on her.

"I'm going to go," Noah announced, tying a bag closed. "Thank you for dinner. Velcome home, Herr Bell." He shrugged into his coat and shoes. "I'll see you on Monday, Frau Villiams," he nodded and left.

"I feel bad," Sasha admitted, watching Noah's shadow move away from the frosted door. She opened a drawer to get forks.

"I don't," Ricky said and he circled the counter and stood in front of her. "I've missed you."

Her core heated and she looked into his eyes. "Same." The forks clattered onto the black granite countertop.

There was a moment of silence. Then all exotic hell exploded when they attacked each other like rabid wolves.
