Shayla turned off the engine. Nova stared out the car window. "I can't tell Emmett the truth." Shayla reached over and squeezed Nova's hand. "Yes, you can. I'll support you." "No." She dragged her gaze away from Emmett standing in the mix of people and pleaded with Nova. "I can't tell him with everyone around to overhear us. I don't know how he'll react or what he'll do. The most important thing I need to do is protect the Network, Red Light, and everyone involved with the bordello. What's happening isn't just about us or me. A lot of people could get arrested if he blows up and goes to the authorities or tells anyone." Shayla remained quiet. Nova looked at her and whispered, "I messed up." Her cousin nodded. "You followed your heart." "You have no idea how bad I want to slap you for saying that." She groaned. "I never set out to fall in love. Not now, and definitely not while I'm working. I never thought ahead and realized that visiting you would put me right in the center of everyone at the trailer.
