Isadora felt Victor's large hand move over her, and her knees nearly buckled.

"What's the matter now? Did the mouse bite you?" Eleanor's voice shot up in alarm.

Isadora murmured a distracted "Mm-hmm."

"What? No way, the mouse actually bit you?"

Eleanor had never heard of anyone being bitten by a mouse before this was a first!

Clutching her phone, Isadora hurriedly said, "No, Mom, it's not that. I've got to go catch the mouse, talk later!"

She hung up before Eleanor could say another word, spun around, and shoved Victor away.

Humiliated and flustered, Isadora glared at him. "Victor! You said you wouldn't push me."

Victor looked maddeningly relaxed, bracing his hands on either side of her as if he had all the time in the world. His tone was a teasing drawl. "Did I? What exactly did I promise?"

Isadora jabbed a finger at his chest. "You said you wouldn't force me into anything."

He arched a brow, feigning innocence. "Right. No pressure."

Her ears turned scarlet. "Then why were you just... holding me, and kissing me?"
