“So, you’re a scoundrel, huh?” Ugh It came out way too flirty but, co with a man who looked like Zach?

Not her

He waggled his eyebrows “Been accused of it a time or two”

“I’ll consider myself warned And yes, you and all your scoundrel friends are welcome in the diner My first executive decision as owner Never agreed with the restriction”

He grunted his understanding “Well, I have to warn you that you’re going to have hordes of bikers falling to their knees and professing their love to you Shell used to bring us soasmic”

Ahh, so there was some kind of connection between Michelle and the bikers Interesting

“I’asms”

Zach barked out a laugh “I think I’onna like you, babe”

Danger, danger

They chatted for about an hour Zach filled her in on changes in town since she’d left, all while looking so hot she could barely stay in her seat without squir at her that set her ablaze

“So,” he said as he rose “I’ll give you a week”

“Huh? A week for what?”
