Obviously, I like him.

Want whatever we’re doing.

I just…want his crabby companion too.

There’s something about when they’re together that’s so fucking intoxicating I can’t stop myself from wanting to OD on it. It’s like the venom he spews is secretly laced with something so delectable that gorging myself is the only option to feel the high, and verbally sparring in order to get it somehow only makes the shit much more delicious.

I like not being seen as a damsel.

The demand to rise to the occasion, to his level, before one of us is falling to our knees.

I’ve never felt anything like it.

Not sure I ever will again.

“Rough day?” Kipp inquires, arm stretching along the back of the couch as if wordlessly inviting him to join us.

“Had to tow a fucking RV in Crystal Waters.” His large frame plops on the other side of me as I resume the scrawling. “One of those big beast bitches.”

“Motorized?”

“Yeah.”

“Class?”

“C.”

“Engine?”

“Cummins 6.7L diesel.”

Kipp lets out a moan that damn near results in me completely losing my grip on my pen. “Fuck, I can’t wait to get my hands on that shit.”

“Didn’t bring it here.”

The air in the room gets unexpectedly tense.

“Why not?”

“We have enough to deal with.”

“You talkin’ about Bunny’s car? Because that shit isn’t ready for work yet.”

“No, but Rabbit herself is a pretty big job.”

“You trying to be the one dog that doesn’t go to heaven?” I sassily taunt his direction, not surprised when he starts cockily grinning.

“Harvest Fests are in session the next few weeks,” Nolan reminds his best friend. “On average you tend to pull two to three tourists a day on top of our regular maintenance clients from Crystal Waters and the snowbirds back in town from Spike Village.” He extends his arm along the backside of his portion of the couch. “Didn’t think you needed that extra stress.”

“Didn’t think to maybe fucking ask?”

Hearing Kipp’s tone firm in tandem with seeing his body do the same out of my peripheral leads to me toying with my tongue ring.

Can’t lie.

There’s something so goddamn irresistible about the way he takes charge.

In and out of bed.
