NovelEnglishChapter 41 Not too long ago, Jace had also givena foot massage. It felt sweet then, but it didn't even cclose to what I was feeling now.
I couldn't figure out why. Maybe it was Hayden's technique.
As Hayden was finishing up, I heard Macy shouting outside, "Listen up, everyone! If anyone tries to mess with my tenants, don't blme for getting nasty! I'll make your whole family regret it..." "What's going on?" I asked quietly.

I thought he was just hot, but his next words toldotherwise.
He said, "From now on, don't wear skirts around here!" I looked down at my skirt, a royal blue silk one that clung to my body and had a slit up the side. Sitting the way I was, the slit had ridden up, exposing my thigh. When he was massaging my foot, he must have seen something. My face turned slightly red, but I wasn't about to lose my cool. I feigned indifference. "Why? Does my skirt bother you?" Hayden's Adam's apple bobbed quickly. Then he strode out of the yard. Not long after, Macy's yelling stopped. Curious about what was happening outside, I darted to the door and saw Hayden standing with his back to me. In front of him was Molly, his rumored admirer.

Macy chimed in, "I asked around. Someone saw you pouring the oil here: Molly fell silent, her eyes filled with anguish as she looked at Hayden, but her words were sharp. "Who asked her to seduce you?" 'Did she say I seduced Hayden?" Molly really knew how to throw accusations at me.

"Let's go. You can cut the watermelon for me." My voice was so sweet it gavegoosebumps. I'd never been like this before, at least not with Jace.
Hayden looked at me, his eyes darkened, and before knew it, he scoopedup again.
He carriedlike I weighed nothing.
"Check it out! He's carrying Keira hwhile he tossed you out like trash," Macy teased Molly. Molly tried to mess with me, but we totally turned the tables on her. She ended up losing a whole bowl of oil too. Hayden broughtback into the yard. His cool voice floated above me, "Inside or outside?"
"Outside, I want to eat the watermelon there," I ere," said, nodding toward the spot where I'd been sitting. Hayden carriedover, and as he setdown, his chin brushed against my nose, tickling me.
