My heart ached for Nathan. I knew he’d never thought of me that way. As my personal doctor, he knew everything about my medical history and what I’d been through.

“Why the long face? Don’t tell me you have feelings for him?” my brother asked.

I let go of his sleeve. “What? No way. But he’s one of my closest friends. He was the first person who helped me keep the truth from Kane. Remember?”

He perched on the edge of the bed. “That’s why I respected him. But as a guy, I can read other men pretty well.”

“Are you saying he has feelings for me?”

He laughed and pinched my cheek. “Who wouldn’t? You’re my adorable little sister.”

“Ow! Quit it!” I swatted his hand away, my cheek stinging from the pinch.

“Alright, alright, my bad. Now get ready. We’re heading out.”
