Turning on my side, I trace light patterns around the flat of her belly.

“So was thatjust these four times… or do we want to go withsix?”

She laughs, and it’s this breathless sated sound so sweet I’m pretty sure I’ll do anything to hear it again.

“What? I don’t know how you’re counting.”

“For real? You’re counting?” she asks, eyes soft, lips kiss-swollen and tipped up at one side.

My chin pulls back. “You’re not?How do you grade if you aren’t keeping score?”

Lifting her hand a couple inches, she gives it a limp wave. “You blew the curve.”

That’s right, I did. But this isHarlow. “Good Girl, are you seriously telling me that you’d accept that generic result? That you wouldn’t demand accuracy in reporting?”

She bites her lip, that hot-as-hell light firing up in her eyes. “You’re right. I would.”

So sexy.

I growl, reaching for her again, but she flees the bed with a shriek, pulling half the covers with her. “Fine, it was a six-time thing.Six.But there’s no seven. This was it, okay, Wade?”

I flash a wink. “Got it.”

Chapter 14

Wade

This isnotit.

Harlow escapes to the shower, and I jam my legs into a pair of jeans and a hoody and cut out of the room. I need a consult, and there’s only one place in the whole of Enderson and outlying where I can be sure it won’t be overheard.

Two minutes later I’m slamming the door to the truck, Axel’s voice coming through the sound system.

“Dude, Nettie says this girl is good people, so if you’re calling in some panic because your fake girlfriend turned out to be psycho—the problem is you.”

I drop an f-bomb and knock my head back against the rest. “This is how you answer the phone? What if I’m calling on speaker from my mom’s kitchen?”

“Are you?” His voice is one hundred percent no-shits-to-give.

“No.” What a dick.

“Did you spend the last fifteen hours freeing one limb from the duct tape holding you to a urine-soaked bed?”

“No.” But that visual’s not going anywhere anytime soon.

“Suspect she’s after your kidney?”

“Axe,” I growl, only to hear the asshole chuckle across the line.

“So spit it out. What’s the problem?”

“I want her.”

“She’s hot. But don’t be a dumbass. You got a week left and you don’t want this chick catching feelings… so keep her away from your favorite stick.”

“That’s the thing—”

“Dude. She already got it?” A string of muttered cursing flows through the truck. “Haven’t you ever heard of jerking off? For fuck’s sake, man. I was kidding about the duct tape and kidney thing. But now—who fucking knows? Nettie is going to be so pissed. Have you ever seen her mad?”
