I’ve been in the crosshairs of Nik’s toxic sibling. People like that are soul-destroyers.
Harley
They are.
I’ve lived with two soul-destroyers my whole life.
I feel Kaz’s attention on me.
I look up at him.
He stares down at me, brows knitted in a frown.
I smile.
He holds my gaze.
What would it take to make you laugh, Kaz Lindström?
He shifts his attention back to his phone.
I do the same.
Harley
I’m guessing that kiss was Kaz’s way of thanking me for telling his father to stuff it where the sun doesn’t shine.
Ciara
That kiss wasn’t fake. It was way, way more than a simple thank you.
Harley
You’re wrong.
Ciara
I’m so not. I could feel the fireworks from that kiss across an ocean.
Chapter 33
All this for a kiss?
Kazimir
As Harley’s fingers fly across her screen, my phone chimes with a text.
Alina
I can’t believe you fought me so hard for so long. I don’t know who the blonde is or where you found her, but if that was supposed to be a fake relationship, color me shocked.
Kazimir
I thought you only worked on Sundays when there was an emergency.
Alina
You better believe I’m going to put on my publicist hat on my day off for these photos. The blonde in the red dress and my client are making news.
