Still Got It

Chapter Twenty-Four

G race had managed to avoid Will for almost three whole days, despite the numerous messages he’d sent, asking her to come over and visit Karen. He’d also supplied her with plenty of videos of the cat and she was pleased to see that his animal husbandry skills seemed sufficient to at least keep Karen alive. His hands appeared in most of the videos, stroking Karen, picking her up or teasing her with a toy, but she blanked those bits out, expanding the moving pictures so that she could only see the cat. Thinking about his hands and what they could do wouldn’t help her at all.

His frantic texts after their night at the beach had finally forced her to send a short reply letting him know she was OK but very busy. He knew where she lived, and she didn’t want him turning up on her doorstep. A bit of distance would do them both good.

Work and entertaining Sofia had genuinely kept Grace at full stretch, plus they’d had their promised night out with Angeliki, which included plenty of drink and laughter. Sofia had clearly made the most of her time in the four-poster with Adonis and was planning a rematch in September. Not that Grace would be around then to hear about it first-hand. But she’d made Sofia promise not to let on to Angeliki, or anyone, about what had happened with Will, and, as far as she could tell, her friend had kept her word.
