“And another thing, all those police make me nervous.”

“You better get used to them.”

Lulu frowned, then looked at Maya.Maya had been allowed in her room when she’d been moved.She had yet to leave.

“I take it you’re keeping Blondie.”

She chuckled.“Yeah.I am.”

Lulu harrumphed, but Keely could tell she was pleased.

“I have to go to the airport.”

The switch in topics almost left Keely dizzy.“Wait, what?”

“Your parents and two of your brothers should be here soon.”

She narrowed her eyes.“And why didn’t anyone tell me they were on their way?”

“Wait, Blondie didn’t tell you?”

“No, but then, you have been here for fifteen minutes, and you didn’t either.”

“That’s the thanks I get for lying to get him back into ICU.”

“You lied?”

“I told the hospital that he was your fiancé.Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let him back to see you.That boy was determined to see you.”

When the door cracked open, that boy—her man—poked his head in.“Am I going to pick the Templetons up at the airport, or are you?”

“I’m not staying here.I can handle Riki better than you can.”

Ryan slipped in and walked over to the bed.He had changed his shirt and pants.Someone must have brought him clothes, because she knew he didn’t have anything with him.He was frowning at her.

“You need rest.”

“I’m lying in bed.”

He harrumphed in the same fashion Lulu did.

“I will see you two later,” Lulu said.She leaned down and kissed Keely’s forehead.A cloud of Chanel No 5 filled her senses.“You really scared me, young lady.Stop it!”

Then she left them alone.

“I know you have a concussion, but the doctor said you could nap.”

“Are you staying with me?”

He nodded and took the seat next to the bed.“Maya and I will be here when you wake up.”

She reached out for his hand, and he easily took it.With her hand in his, she drifted off into sleep.

“Who the hell are you?”

Ryan blinked his eyes open and found himself staring up at two massive Hawaiian men.One had long hair he kept in a man bun, and the other had his hair military short.The strong nose and jaw they shared made them almost identical to Riki.But those golden eyes…those were from their mother.

“Do you have to be so loud, Keanu?”Keely groused.
