Micah noticed the photographers across the street as soon as Rory’s uber pulled away.
“F*ck,” he whispered, walking quickly back toward the building.
What the hell had just come over him? He’d chased after Rory in boxers for what? To say you’re welcome and ask her to breakfast?
He didn’t owe her any explanation about Mel, and while he wanted to keep an eye on her in case she started to Shift, wasn’t that the whole purpose of having this fake relationship?
He never had any intentions of making this real. But suddenly the idea of sitting across from her at breakfast came to mind, and he found himself smiling.
That smile quickly vanished as he approached his building and the doorman, Rick, opened the doors for Mel. She was dressed in her signature knee high boots, a turtleneck crop top and shorts, still more clothes on than he had.
