“Nope. He sleeps with Danny.”
“Good.” She patted my chest. “I don’t think I’m into someone watching us. At least I don’t think I am. Guess we’ll see.”
I groaned and tipped my head back. “Killing me.”
She slipped a hand between us and cupped my shaft and blew out a breath. “Hope that patient part was true.”
I met her gaze. “It is. And if you don’t want?—”
She put her finger over my lips. “I want. Very much.”
I nipped at her finger. “Good.”
And before I couldn’t leave her, I stepped away. I patted Trouble’s head. “Keep her company, buddy.”
He licked my arm, and I took that as an affirmative.
“I’ll be back in a little bit.”
She nodded. “Take your time.”
I didn’t want to take any more damn time. It felt as if I’d waited a lifetime for her.

“For the circle chair,” he said behind me.
I glanced at him. “You got it for him already?”
He grinned. “I took a peek at the tag on yours after our conversation about it.”
The nerves turned into flowing honey. Was there anything sexier than a man who cared for people?Nope! It was new for me but imagining him like that smoothed away some of my anxiety.
Sully was the perfect first guy to do this with.
I was freshly divorced. I shouldn’t get serious with the first guy who attracted me.
But was it just attraction?
No.
I shoved back that voice again.
