She eased out from under his hold, trying not to wake him. As soon as she sat upright, nausea assailed her, and she stuff a hand over her mouth. No, no, no! He can’t see me like this.She struggled to her feet and stumbled into the bathroom. With the door locked, she dropped to the floor beside the toilet and dry heaved. The fact that her stomach was empty meant nothing to the horrible impulse that wouldn’t loosen its grip. A knock on the door made her jump, and she held her breath with difficulty.“Hey, Zai, are you okay?” Leith called through the door. “I thought I heard you throwing up.”“No, I’m fine.” Even to her own ears, her voice sounded weak. Getting up from the floor turned out to be a job, but she managed it and turned the water on at the sink. “Just about to brush my teeth and take a shower.”“Okay, I’ll use the bathroom in the hall so we can get out of here on time.”Damn, she’d forgotten to wash out her panties. That meant she had to drive all the way home before she went in to work.
