She felt her cheeks heat. But before she could respond, he said, “Think whatever you want.”
“Well,” she huffed. “Who are you then?”
“A history and folklore professor who likes his privacy and is just in the area gathering data for his next book.”
This time she snorted. She might not have attended college, but no way could she picture this man with his barely contained energy and his military-grade weapon confining himself to a classroom or a stuffy office all day. “Don’t think I believe that for a minute.
