But now that she was fully aware, the tension in his face sent a shocking thought spiraling through her mind.
"Are your legs healed?" Her voice barely made a sound.
She lowered her gaze, staring at his legs as if the answer lay there.
It didn't make sense.
Shaking her head, she mumbled to herself, "That's impossible. I saw you in a wheelchair this moming. And now, you're just walking? Are you kidding me? Have you been lying tothis whole time?" She lifted her eyes to his, waiting- needing an answer.
Collin took a slow breath, knowing there was no more biding. "Letexplain, Lindsey."
