“You do?”
“Savage is my best friend. I’ve known him and Duke since we were nine years old. Savage tells me everything. Well, not everything. He doesn’t kiss and tell. He’s actually a gentleman in that area. Anyway, Savage told Charlie?”
“To tell me,” I said. “Almost like a warning about Bones.”
“Huh.”
“Charlie and Savage aren’t anything but casual. She has no interest in falling in love.”
“Good.” She let out a sigh of relief. “Because neither does Savage. Frankly, I’m not sure he’s even wired for it. He’s left a lot of women brokenhearted thinking that they’ll be the one to change that. They’re always so surprised when he lets them down. They’re usually not even mad at him when he does it because he’s honest about his intentions. It’s crazy, actually.”
“Crazy,” I agreed.
“Well, I’m glad then. For Charlie’s sake. I wouldn’t want her to get hurt.”
“Her heart is coated in steel,” I stated. “She’s not interested in love.”
“Are you interested in love?”
“Oh, and look at that. We’re back to talking about me.”
Jazz briefly interrupted by bringing Willa a huge coffee with whipped cream and caramel syrup and a plate of assorted baked goods.
“Delish,” Willa said with a sigh.
“I made it decaf,” Jazz said.
“Thanks.” Willa shot her a smile.
Jazz looked at me. “You good?”
“I’m good.”
“The tea?”
“Still too hot to taste.”
“Let me know,” she said, and then left.
“You didn’t call me to talk about Bones,” I said.
She shook her head. “No, that’s just a fun little byproduct. You still haven’t answered though.”
“About what?”
“About what I said. And how these men, these bikers, know quickly if they want a woman to be their woman.”
“So, his behavior,” I said slowly. “Can I trust it? Can I trust him? He’s not love-bombing me?”
Willa shook her head. “No.”
“So, when he says he’s not playing games, he really means it?”
“He means it.”
My brow furrowed. “You’ve given me a lot to think about.”
“I’m going to say one more thing and then I’ll hold my tongue, okay?”
