Chapter Eleven (#ulink_1f982dcb-1e53-5a86-9ca4-46852dbfb9a3)

Anna was pacing the yard as the last of the evening sun hunkered down for the night. This wasn’t how she had expected the team event evening to go. She hadn’t meant to make a scene and was annoyed with herself for reacting, although the truth was she wasn’t able to control her emotions that easily. It must have been Liam who had written the question, which had freaked her out. His attempt to wind her up, no doubt. At least now she knew what she was dealing with.

The door clicked open and she spun around to see Liam’s face peering round the edge.

‘Can I have a word?’ he asked, still using the door like a shield.

Anna crossed her arms in front of her. ‘What about?’ She’d give him a chance to come clean before she tore him to shreds.

Liam gestured for them to walk a bit further away, perhaps anticipating an explosive response. ‘You okay?’

‘Fine. Why?’

Liam tilted his head to one side and scrunched up his features. ‘I’m really sorry about the question.’

Anna pulled back her shoulders. She was right – of course it had been him. A flash of temper and hurt coursed through her. ‘I didn’t think you’d stoop that low.’
