“You were saying?”

It was probably wrong to use my body against him like I was, but he had it coming. He dragged me out here against my will. I was perfectly happy with returning to my apartment and wallowing with my cat.

“I was…um…”

When he couldn’t come up with an answer, I sashayed my ass over to him. I fully intended to distract him, but my plans were foiled when one of his teammates walked into the hut unexpectedly.

“Thanks a lot for—whoa!”

I blushed bright red as Kavanaugh stared at me in all my naked glory. Eli, however, quickly snapped out of his gawking and rushed toward me, grabbing the sheet off the bed and wrapping it around me.

“What the fuck? You don’t knock?”

“I wasn’t aware I needed to,” he chuckled. “Why is it that everyone else always gets the girl?”

“Out!” Eli snapped, jabbing his finger at the door.

“Was I interrupting something?”

“Get the fuck out right now!”

I watched as Kavanaugh smirked at him, refusing to budge. Eli was getting awfully worked up over this. After all, it wasn’t like we were an item. Well, we’d slept together twice now, but that didn’t make us a couple.

“Would you relax?” I laughed. “I’m covered now.”

Eli’s gaze swung to meet mine, and the burning I saw in the depths of his eyes had me fanning myself. Holy crap, that was a good look on him. “He doesn’t get to see you naked.”

“He sort of already has. Honestly, I’m not that worried about it. I doubt he sees anything but a naked woman.”

“A hot naked woman,” Kavanaugh corrected.

I flushed bright red, taking the compliment to heart. What woman didn’t like it when a man called her hot? “That’s very—”

“Inappropriate,” Eli cut in. “She’s a client.”

“That you’ve slept with. Twice,” he snorted.

“It’s rude to listen in on other people.”

“Yeah, nobody really had to listen. You’re very…loud. And enthusiastic. Both of you. Really, you could make it an Olympic sport. I’m pretty sure wild animals started getting it on just to compete with you.”

Eli was obviously irritated by his friend, but I found the whole thing rather funny. “Did you have a point of coming over here, or did you just want to be a pain in the ass?”

“Oh, being a pain in the ass is what I live for,” he winked at me. “But I actually came over to give you this,” he said, pulling a bag out from behind his back. “Since you didn’t get to finish your shopping at the market, I picked out a few things. And a few…undergarments. I’m sure you’ll both appreciate them.”

He winked at me again before he turned and walked out of the hut, laughing to himself. Eli brought the bag over, but the moment he opened it, he looked up and squeezed his eyes closed. It couldn’t be that bad.

I walked over and pulled out the first item. It was…stringy. There really wasn’t anything to it, but it was better than going commando. I dropped the sheet, which Eli immediately picked up and held in front of me like a curtain.

“Jesus, you can’t just stand there naked for everyone to see.”

I rolled my eyes. “I’m pretty sure everyone has seen way more of me than I care to admit. Besides, what does it matter?”

“It matters because you’re not theirs to see.”

I spun, holding up the flimsy piece of underwear, and quirked an eyebrow at him. “Really? And you have the right to see me?”

“I have more right than they do,” he snapped.
