With her eyes still closed she licks her dry lips and swallows hard. “Too many times.”

My pager beeps, vibrating its way across the table and we both ignore it, completely drunk on each other. I reach one hand up to find her jaw, gripping it and pulling her to me for another kiss before letting my arm fall to her waist, sliding my hand down the front of her pants, dipping underneath to cup her pussy, groaning in pain when I feel how hot she is between her legs.

I’m so desperate for her. Desperate to dip my fingers under the scrap of fabric and feel how wet she is, to give her everything she deserves and make her come right here and feel her clench around my fingers. She spreads her legs wider, inviting me to do just that when my pager beeps again.

The incessant vibrating of my pager must sober her up a little because she moans my name and mumbles something about how we shouldn’t do this.

“I know, baby.” As much as it kills me to take my hands off of her, I would never forgive myself if we got caught and her reputation was ruined. I’d fucking end anyone who dared to talk shit about her.

She reaches a hand up and grips the hair on the back of my head, pulling me in for another kiss and shattering all thoughts I had about someone hurting her. I regretfully take my hand out of her pants and bring it up to wrap my arms around her, holding her to me.

The phone on my hip rings and Lainey immediately pulls away, a slew of curses leaving my mouth. She pushes off thechair and stands, shaky hands fumbling to tie the strings of her scrub pants.

I pull my phone out and answer it, but not before wrapping my forearm around her waist to keep her near me, letting her know that this is far from over.

“Dr. Ryan,” I answer, keeping my voice as calm as I can despite the blood still rushing to my groin.

“Dr. Ryan, it’s Dr. Patel, here to consult on your patient with renal colic. Are you available?”

I clear my throat, sitting up straighter. “Yes, I’ll meet you in the room.” I hang up and toss the phone on the counter, running a hand over my face while keeping an arm locked around Lainey’s waist.

“Sounds like you need to go,” she whispers.

“Trust me when I say I don’t want to.”

She turns in my arm and smooths the hair around my temples, leaning to kiss me once more. “I know.”

“If you keep kissing me like that,” I say against her lips, “I won’t be able to leave.”

She giggles, the best fucking sound in the world, and tries to pull away before I grip her back for one more kiss. She takes a step back and pulls out her ponytail, combing her hair quickly before pulling it up in a messy bun.

“Do I look like a hot mess right now?”

“You look beautiful, as always.” That’s the goddamn truth. Whether it’s at work in basic scrubs, dolled up for a date, or bare faced in the wee hours of the night, she always takes my breath away.

She rolls her eyes, and without much thought, I reach up and give her a light spank.

“Is that your answer for everything? Spanking me?”

“It is when you roll your eyes.”

She plants her hands on my shoulders, and just when I think she’s going to lean in for another kiss she moves her mouth to the side, whispering ever so delicately in my ear. “Good to know.”

Chapter Twenty-One

Lainey

“Almost done with his backside,” Suzie grunts, “then we just need to change the sheets.”

“No worries, take your time.” I widen my stance and clench my abs, doing my best to try to hold the patient on their side as I stretch my neck and shoulders. It’s been a hell of a week, and my body is screaming.I don’t have the time or energy to stand here and help, but Suzie is a doll and has been an aide longer than I’ve been alive. I refuse to stand by and let her try to muscle through a bed bath alone.

“Okay, all done. Let’s roll him.”

I gently release my hold and roll the patient onto their back.

“I can finish here. Thank you so much, Lainey.”

“Of course.” I glance around the hospital room. “Do you have the linens? Or need me to grab them?”
