but you’ll owe me one.”
    “Thanks, Ivan. Let me know if you have any problems.”
    “It’s a human woman. How much trouble could she be?” Ivan asked, hanging up.
    Cosmo should have felt relieved shifting Andy off onto his brother. His inner bear was trying to break out, wanting to seek out and keep other males from being around Andy. What if she liked Ivan better than him? He and his brother had dated the same girls before. It never bothered him before, but the thought of Ivan touching Andy, tasting her, making love to her tore him up inside. Women found Ivan quiet and aloof, which they seemed to be drawn to. Maybe Andy would fall for Ivan. What had he done?
    *****
    Andy heard a knock and rushed to the cabin door, anxious to see Cosmo again. He had invaded her dreams all night. Images of him naked and over her had her waking with an ache deep inside. She was nervous and excited about seeing him again. She opened the door with a smile on her face.
    “Good morning!” She looked up into his black eyes. He was gorgeous as usual in a dark blue sweater and jeans. His short blond hair seemed a little longer today, but he was still as handsome as before. He stood there like a sun god. There was something different about him, but she couldn’t pinpoint it.
    “Let’s go. I have a busy day today.” His voice was gruff.
    “Okay, let me get my purse and coat.” She grabbed her things and quickly walked to the door. He didn’t say anything at all as they got into his truck. She looked at it, thinking that it didn’t look the same as it did yesterday. “Did you get a new truck?”
    “No.” His answer was brisk.
    “Are you okay?”
    “Just trying to get this over, so I can do my real job.”
    “Sorry.” At first she felt bad about taking up his time but as they continued on the road to town, she became angrier and angrier over his rude attitude. None of this was her fault. He pulled up in front of the local grocery store. She got out and didn’t wait for him. She stormed inside the building. He caught up with her in a few long strides.
    “Slow down or you’ll knock someone over,” he called out behind her.
    She had enough of this shit. She turned around and pointed her finger at him. “You know what? I don’t need your help. Go away!”
    He looked at her a little surprised. “I’m supposed to help you take your groceries back and show you how to use a snowmobile.”
    “I relieve you of your duty. You are not responsible for me.”
    “How will you get back to the cabin?”
    “I’m sure I can find someone—anyone—in this town that will show me more courtesy than you have. You’re an asshole!”
    “What is going on over here?” The elderly lady, Mrs. Fielding, asked, coming down the aisle they were standing in.
    Andy blushed at having been caught losing her temper. She was about to apologize for yelling in a public place, but the old woman was staring at Cosmo.
    “Ivan Vedar, are you harassing this poor young woman?”
     
     
     
     
     

 
     
    Chapter 8
     
     
    Ivan? Andy looked between the man and the old lady in confusion. Ivan was Cosmo’s twin brother. He called and had his twin brother take over helping her instead of helping her himself. He didn’t want anything to do with her. She felt a sharp pain in her heart and had to fight not to burst into tears. She should have known that someone as hot as Cosmo wouldn’t be attracted to her.
    “It’s okay, Mrs. Fielding. Ivan was nice enough to bring me to town to get some groceries for the cabin. I was letting him know that I can find other transportation back so he could get to work.”
    Ivan looked shocked that she was defending him. She should be angry at him for not letting her know right away that he wasn’t Cosmo, but it was Cosmo’s fault that he was here bearing the brunt of the awkwardness, not his.
    “Well, are you sure everything’s okay?” Mrs. Fielding didn’t look like she totally believed her.
    “Yes. I’ll get some
