    At Zachary’s words, Marley knew he planned on biting her again.

    unbearable. Quickly, she thought of something else to take her mind off of her thoughts.
    “So what are we doing, flying or driving?” she asked.
    “You want to drive. For the life of me, I don’t understand it. You would rather be sick yourself than to make anyone uncomfortable.
    Jordan, head back north. It’s what Marley wants. As much as I don’t like it, I can’t deny her. I’ve already taken so much,” Zachary said, looking out of his window.
    To Marley, it felt like a heavy cloud lifted from the SUV. The guys instantly relaxed and so did she. It might be a long drive, but breaks would help her, and she and Zachary could possibly have some alone time along the way. Now that was a little too tempting. She hated how she couldn’t control herself when she was around him.
    Marley wrapped her arm around her stomach as the knots tightened with wanting to release.
    The phone rang just as Zachary reached for it. “Kylie, we’re driving, cancel the flight. We should be there in the next two days. I’ll keep you posted. Let me talk to Henry.”
    Silence settled for a few seconds and then his words turned monosyllabic, yes, no, all right. Finally, after countless responses, he relaxed completely, slouching against the seat.
    “Henry, she’s great. I can’t wait for everyone to meet her. We’ll see you soon. Goodbye, brother.”
    The phone went back into his pocket and he looked over at Marley, smiling. “That was my brother, Henry. He’s been leading the pack while I’ve been away. Everyone can’t wait to meet you.”
    A rock seemed to settle on Marley’s chest, making it impossible to get a good breath. “Really? Well, I won’t lie. I’m sort of nervous about meeting everyone. Zachary, there are some things that concern me.”
    His eyebrows drew together. “Like what?”
    “Well, I understand that I’m in danger, but I can’t stay there forever. What about my family, my business? All right, my business Ebook piracy is stealing. It is a federal offense.

    really isn’t an issue. I could do that anywhere. What I mean is,” she took a deep breath, “orders are due to go out tomorrow and the next day, and so on. How am I going to send them out? I don’t have my merchandise. What if something happens and my family needs me back home?”
    He looked at her as if she spoke some sort of alien vocabulary. He looked completely bewildered. Marley wanted to clap her hands in the air and make him see what she meant. How could he not understand what she needed?
    “Marley, you never have to work again. I’m going to take care of you. Your family can come and stay, too, if that’s what you want.”
    Now she felt positive she was the one with the confused and shocked expression.
    “No, you don’t understand. I don’t want to be taken care of. I’ve built my business into what it is. I can’t just give it up now. Plus, I don’t think you and my mother would get along very well. She would constantly be telling you what to wear and what to do. No, it’s not going to work!”
    Zachary ran his fingers through his hair. He didn’t seem angry, just frustrated. “I would do anything, wear anything, it doesn’t matter as long as you’re happy. I want you to be happy with me, Marley.
    Why can’t you see that?”
    All right, as much as she really liked this guy he continued to make it impossible for her to tell him no. Marley hated telling anyone no, but she controlled her life. This wasn’t something
