My mouth drops open. “You’ve got to be kidding me,” I mutter under my breath. I guess I didn’t scare him away last night. “This is getting out of hand,” I add when he bends down to pick up my coffee mug. “And stalker-like.”

He sets the cup and lid on the porch railing, and there’s mischief in his smile.

Oh shit.

“What? You spilling your coffee? It is clumsy, you know.”

“No. You showing up at my door.”

“I was in your bedroom last night.”

“That doesn’t sound less stalker-like.”

His smile turns playful. “Shut it, Fieldgain. I didn’t come over to admit I peeped through your windows and sniffed your panties. I came for reimbursement.”

I blink. “I’m sorry, reimbursement?”

He nods. “Yes. It’s time to pay your debt.”

“Excuse me? I don’t owe you shit unless it’s a swift kick in the nuts for being on my property,uninvited.”

He appears entertained while leaning back on his heels. “I was invited last night. The invite is valid for a full twenty-four hours.”

I roll my eyes. “Seriously?”

“Yes. You told me to stop by whenever I wanted, remember?”

I park my hands on my hips. “Those words left my mouth alongside the vomit?”

“You. Owe. Me. Now, I have a few options on payment.”

I scoff, “I owe you for being a decent human being?”

He points to me and snaps his fingers. “Correct.”

I clench my teeth and tap my foot. “I can’t believe I’m entertaining this, but what are myoptions?”

He holds a finger up. “One: we have morning sex.”

I snort. “Not happening.”

He holds up a second finger. “Two: we have sex after work this evening.”

“Next.”

He adds another finger to the mix. “Three: you take me to breakfast.” When I don’t answer, he gestures to my empty cup. “Unless you plan on slurping it from the ground, you need a fresh cup.”

While taking my sweet time to determine my next move with him, I get chills when I realize he’s not bare-chested today.

What a shame.

Instead, he’s giving me the gorgeous view of him in his blue uniform again—another one fitting him perfectly.

Definitely not a shame.

Whichever sight he delivers never fails to turn me on. My nipples tighten, and I wonder what it’d be like to strip his uniform off and for him to use his handcuffs on me.

I nearly fall over in embarrassment, and my eyes meet his at the sound of him clearing his throat.
