I was really getting into it then, running my hands over him in a way a lover would.

I remove my palms from his skin and turn the shower off.

When I dry him, I make sure more than once to rub my breasts against him, which he rewards me with a growl every time.

Oh yes.

I’ll win this.

One hundred percent.

“Lorelei, this is my best friend, Ramona, and the man she’s currently taking care of, Adan.”

“Nice to meet you.” I smile, extending a hand to the gorgeous woman in front of me.

Her face seems familiar somehow, but I’m not certain where I’ve seen her. Perhaps she just has a face that looks like others, though she is rather unique and absolutely stunning. She’s small with an athletic build, not too muscular but lean in a way that tells you she works out a lot. She’s got the most beautiful, long, straw-colored blond hair and eyes that are the most exceptional shade of brown. They have these little yellow specks all through them, and yet the brown is so dark that when you look at her, it’s almost startling to see the yellow shining through.

She’s got this little button nose and the fullest lips, the girl could be on the cover of a magazine, no doubt about it. She’s wearing tights and a shirt that ties in the middle, showing off what, to me, looks like a nice set of abs. Yeah, she’s gorgeous alright. I know because Adan is staring at her like he wants to eat her alive.

I’m not sure why that bothers me, but it does.

“Adan,” he murmurs, nodding. “I’d shake your hand, but I can’t. You new around here?”

Wow, he’s just diving in.

My heart, my stupid heart, it aches a tiny bit.

“Yes.” She smiles at him, showing perfect white teeth accompanied by the sweetest, softest voice I’ve ever heard. “I’ve only been here a few weeks. What happened to your hands?”

“I was tryin’ to save important stuff in a fire next door and got burned.”

Oh sweet mother ... talk it up, why don’t you?

God.

He is good.

I’ll give him that.

“Oh, my gosh. Are you okay?”

He grins. “I will be.”

Grins.

He’s grinning at her.

Grinning.

I feel that, right to my core.

I’ve seen the charming side to Adan, obviously. He has the nickname Papi for a reason. That’s because he can turn it on when he wants to and get whatever woman he wants. Every woman except me, it would seem. Perhaps I really don’t do anything for him?

Ouch.

“I’ve been nursing him back to health,” I say, trying to snap their lovey eyes back to the real world.

Eve looks to me and gives me a sympathetic smile.

I roll my eyes.

Trying to play it off.

But the truth is, it’s hurting a little more than it should.

“Oh, you’re a nurse?” Lorelei asks me. “How wonderful.”

“I am.” I smile.

Can’t hate her, she’s lovely.

“I’m looking forward to getting to know all of you better; I met Riggs this morning and Remy. I’m certain every single one of you that walks through this door gets better looking. And that goes for the women, too. Ramona, you’re seriously stunning.”

God dammit.

I like her.

“Then you’ll fit right in,” Adan says to her. “You’re beautiful.”

Fuck.

What the hell?

I’m not sure why it feels like a knife to the chest, over and over again, but it really does. It’s making me feel ... pathetic.

“Oh,” Lorelei blushes. “You’re too kind.”

“I’d love to take you out for a look around town, if you’ve got time off?”

God, he’s asking her out now.

He never asks anyone out.

He fucks and leaves.

That’s what Adan does.

“That would be wonderful, I’m not working tomorrow.”

“Good, I’ll come and get you then.”

“With what?” I point out. “You can’t drive, Adan.”

He glances at me.

“I can drive us,” Lorelei offers. “It’s totally fine.”

Adan grins at me.

Dick.

Giant dick.

“I have to chat to you about Dad. Do you have a second?” I ask Eve.

“Oh, I’ve got a second.”

“I’ll be right back,” I say to Adan.

“Don’t hurry.”

Fucking. Hell.

Eve and I walk out the back, and I spin around to her, frantically fanning my face. “What is happening to me? Eve, I’m jealous. I’m actually jealous. I’m never jealous. What is going on?”

“Okay, calm down,” she says, taking my hands and lowering them. “You like him, that’s not surprising considering you’re living with him and spending all of your time with him.”

“I don’t like him!” I scoff.

“Honey, you wouldn’t be jealous if you didn’t like him. It’s fine, it’s normal.”

“God, this is the worst. I like him,” I groan, dropping my head.

I like Adan.

I like him.

More than I could have realized.

“I was worried about this,” Eve tells me. “Purely because I know the kind of man he is and I don’t want to see you get hurt. I think Adan is the bomb, don’t get me wrong, but he’s also a player and can be a real dick.”
