Nathalie’s throat felt dry. “Does it even matter now?”

She was exhausted. Retreading this ground over and over only made her feel like a colossal fool.

“It matters.”

Lance stared at her, his dark eyes burning with intensity. “I need to know. Did you know it was me? Or…”

“Don’t go,” Lance ordered softly.

Nathalie paused and looked over her shoulder. “You came here with an agenda. What exactly do you want?”

A dangerous, mocking light returned to his eyes. “Just how far are you willing to go to protect your friend?”

Nathalie’s hands curled into fists. “Name your terms.”

“I haven’t decided yet.” Lance pulled a fresh shirt on, immediately slipping back into his infuriatingly casual demeanor. “When I know, I’ll tell you.”
