Free Fated by Carly Phillips Page B

Serendipity, picket fence and all.
    â€œNah. Cara offered to let me take the spare room at her new condo.”
    Mike ignored the hot flush of jealousy creeping through his veins. It was as unwarranted as it was ridiculous. Sam and Cara were best friends and partners, but there was nothing sexual between them. And even if there was, Mike didn’t plan to pick up where they’d left off, so what was his problem?
    â€œThat was nice of her to offer.” Mike forced out the words.
    â€œYeah. I might take her up on it,” Sam said, sounding groggier by the minute.
    â€œHey, did you click on your meds while I wasn’t looking?” Mike gestured to the button attached to his brother’s IV.
    Sam nodded, a goofy grin on his face. “Yeah. Feeling no pain, my man.”
    Mike rolled his eyes. Time for him to go. He braced his hand on the bed and rose to his feet. “You get some sleep. I’ll come by after work. Mom said to tell you they’ll be here around lunchtime.”
    â€œOkay. They came late last night for a quick hello, but I was pretty out of it.”
    â€œYeah, but they both slept better for seeing you.”
    Sam didn’t reply. He was already passed out cold. Mike shook his head and walked out. First stop coffee shop, then he’d get lost in work. Later on today, he’d deal with Cara Hartley.
