“Yours, actually,” he relies,
slipping his hands into his pockets and staring at the house.
I frown at him. “What?”
“This is your dad’s place,” Ivan explains, turning to me with a smile. “He loaned it to me for the night. Told me to take you up here, enjoy ourselves.”
“Oh,” I say, shrinking away from him a little, surprised. “I thought that you…”
Ivan turns his head a little, waiting

for me to continue.
“Well…” I hesitate, “my dad and I, the last time we met, we didn’t… end things on very good terms. And he was mad that I was seeing you. And I kind of thought that you brought me up here because you wanted to see me…”

taken me?”
“Cheap motel on the boardwalk,” he says, shrugging with a smirk. “I would have treated you to the

I find myself laughing, suddenly, charmed by him again. He wraps an arm around my waist, pulling me close, and I let him. “Seriously,

Fay,” he says. “Forget your dad
– he’s a jerk. I brought you here because I thought you’d want to know that he was sorry. But if
you don’t like it – we can go right
now.”
“No,” I murmur, smiling at him, our faces close. “Let’s stay. I want to check out my property, after all.”
Ivan nudges my nose with his, sending a little flutter through my stomach, and then pulls me towards the house.
