“Chaos? Please. We're just two consenting adults in love. It was a kiss, not a crime. Perfectly respectable, if you

He gave an easy shrug, like he hadn't just been caught with his hands all over her.

“Then make it quick.”
“Right away, baby,” he said with a grin.

“I'll be back soon.”
Eric reached out, his fingers grazing her lips in a soft, lingering touch. A smile curved his mouth as he turned and
slipped out the door.
Hadley exhaled slowly, readjusted her gown, and stepped out of the changing room.
She had barely made it a few paces down the hallway when she found her path blocked—
Linda was waiting, seated in her wheelchair, positioned squarely in the center of the narrow corridor.
