Okay, I could get used to that.

He disappears into the kitchen wordlessly, and I watch him go.

Just kidding.

I follow him like the thirsty bitch I am. His perspiration calls to me in much the same way cake does. The last time he was all sweaty, he was pounding into me.

That probably won’t happen tonight, but a girl can dream.

When I get into the kitchen, he’s chugging a bottle of water. I lean on the counter and greedily take in the heavenly sight of his throat bobbing and his lips wrapped around the bottle top.

He finishes off the water in one long chug, then makes that delicious breathy gasp sound.So hot. After he effortlessly crumples the bottle in a showy act of masculinity, my knees quake and my core flutters.

If I promise to do it quietly, I wonder if he’ll let me sit on his penis. I only need to hold it and keep it warm. Give it a hug.

“You’re staring a lot. You good, tiger?”

Cocky, sexy baby.

“Why are you sweaty? And where’s Mama Klein?”

His brows knit tightly, and he takes a step in my direction. “I worked out. And she’s asleep.”

“Already?”

“Yeah, I helped get her ready for bed. She was exhausted and fell asleep almost instantly. So while you were on the laptop, I got some exercise in.” He gestures down his ripped body. “Hence the sweat.”

I close the rest of the distance between us and tug on the bottom of his tank top, hoping to cop a feel of his abs. “How did you do all that so fast? Do you have access to a wormhole that distorts time?”

“So fast? It’s been well over an hour.” He glances at the clock on the microwave. “More like an hour and a half.”

“What?” I squeak, the word flying out far too loudly.

“Shh!” He glances from me to the hallway and back. “She’s sleeping. Keep it down, babe.”

“I’m sorry, but how the hell could it have beenthatlong?”

“I guess you got absorbed in your work and lost track of time.”

“My work? I didn’t do any. I was onlythinkingabout working.”

“When I peeked in here, you had your face in the laptop. I told you I was going to work out in my room.”

I press the heel of my palm against my forehead, trying to figure out how I lost track of that much time. Did I sleep while I was awake? Is that a thing? “I didn’t even hear you. All I was doing was trying to figure out how to solve this mess with the FBI shit and whoever was spying on me. Next thing I know, you’re in here looking like a sweaty-sexy-man-stick I want to suck on.”

He bobs his eyebrows at me, all flirty and sexy-like. “I need to shower first. Then you can suck on anything you wish.”

Ooh.

“May I join you? Two birds and all?”

He twirls a lock of my hair around his index finger. “Yeah, but first… tell me what you figured out about your break-in while you were deep in thought. Did you come up with anything good?”

“Not really. Tomorrow, I’ll pull camera footage from the closest traffic light cams to my neighborhood and see if I recognize anyone coming or going, but I’m not optimistic. And I promise I’ll report the burglary to CPD. I’d like to see if they can send someone to dust for prints, but I don’t expect there to be any but yours and mine. If they were good enough to bypass my system, they wouldn’t be dumb enough to leave a print behind.”

“True. What about your tablet?”

“What about it?”
