Sasha should have seen other people and gone on other blind dates after that. He certainly hadn't expected her to turn up at his office. Frowning, Zane blocked her way and asked, "Can I help you?" Sasha scowled when he refused to let her through. "Why did you turndown when I asked to meet you tomorrow?" She followed up with an accusatory tone, "Is it because you don't want to see me?" Zane made his stance clear. "Yes. Ms. Weston, I think we've talked about many things in detall during our first meeting" He added pointedly. "I do not and will not agree to what you suggested.

"With that said, we should stop wasting each other's twith these pointless meetings, don't you think?" Sasha did not seem to realize his reproach, for she countered boldly, "But I like your face, and I think you should try to date me. You might fall in love withas we hang out over tand prioritizeover Willow! Who knows, you might willingly send her to live with sShe would never allow herself to becsomeone's stepmother.

Zane bit out without hesitation, "No way." "How would you know if you never tried? Sasha challenged "Because I would never date anyone who won't accept my daughter," Zane said, deadpan and impassive. "Do you get it now?" Headstrong as she was, Sasha was about to argue with him when he continued, "If you get it, then leave and never botheragain. If you insist on staying, I'll call security. I'm sure they have ways to make you leave." When Sasha saw how serious Zane was, she left in disappointment.

Zane turned to head back into his office, only to find Annalise staring in his direction. His tone softened without his knowing as he said, "If you have questions, just ask." I walked up to Zane and asked, "Who was that young lady?" Zane met my gaze, chuckling. "A blind date." I thought they were exes who had parted on bad terms. "She seemed pretty interested in you. Ten to one, she'll cback to hound you.

He did not deny this, though he pointed out cryptically, "You should be prepared." I gave him a baffled look. "Why?"

"Because my mom just called earlier this afternoon and pesteredto go out with Sasha," Zane explained matter-of-factly. "I refused. I turned Sasha away again when she cby earlier.

"And with my mom hoping I'd get together with Sasha..." He analyzed m his situation calmly she's never ve beemone to give up until she gets her way, and if she wantsto be with Sasha... I won't put it past her to take Willow away by force."

He glanced elsewhere. "You and Willow are close. Eventually, my mom and Sasha will discover you're in the picture. And with Willow cafting you 'Mommy and'Daddy', my mom will think of you as the biggest obstacle keeping Sasha andfrom dating" I fell silent. Did this mean Zane's mother would takeout of the equation herself? Zane reassuredgently, "But don't worry. As long as we drop Willow off at school and pick her up together, my mom and Sasha won't be able to get pastand go after you." <
