Chapter 20 Hypothermia

• KNOX MARTINS BEACH HOUSE
• Eretia woke up with a start to darkness. She blinked, a panic of not knowing where she was or what had happened choking her for a minute. Then she remembered everything. She closed her eyes for a moment and lay very still as she remembered the whole drama with her new boss. Eretia was in bed, she knew that and she was feeling so warm.
• Eretia opened her eyes slowly trying to focus. She slowly turned her head toward the light source in the room. She looked beyond and her breath caught. Knox was there. He was sitting on a couch about two feet away from the bed and his eyes were on her.
