LILA'S POV "What?" Liam's eyes widen. "Wade's your boss? That's... wow. Small world." "Yeah. Tiny world," I agree, my throat tight. "Microscopic, really." Liam's looking at me weirdly now, and I can see the wheels turning in his head. "Is that why you came over last night? Did you know he was staying here?" "No! I had no idea." The lie comes easily, probably because it's mostly true. "Really?" Liam questions, his eyes narrowing. "You seemed pretty flustered when I got home? Everything okay? Wade didn't say anything inappropriate, did he? Because I'll kick his ass if he made you uncomfortable." "No! No, nothing like that." I wave my hand dismissively, hoping he can't see how fast my heart is beating now. "I was just surprised to see someone here when I arrived. I thought I'd be alone.
