Rais ended up staying behind at the house to install the security system. He didn’t like some of the angles and needed to get up into the attic and onto the roof and have Owen test the cameras from his end.

“Don’t fall,” I warned him on the way out the door.

He snorted and muttered something that sounded a lot like, “Yeah, sure, you either,” so I grabbed Benji and hustled him out the door before things got weird.

“I think Rais had a retort?” Benji teased me in the car, hand on my thigh. He liked touching me, and I couldn’t complain.

“What? No.”

“You’re a terrible liar, and I like that about you.”

I grunted.

“What did Rais say? I couldn’t hear him, what with you pushing me out the door.”

I exhaled sharply. “He might’ve been about to remind me of the last time we worked a job together. I fell through a skylight, and if he hadn’t been there, the thirty-foot drop would’ve been bad.”

“Oh my God.” He sounded horrified.

“Yeah. He’s not the one who loses his balance, so I’m sure he was about to give it to me with both barrels.”

“He seems nice.”

I scoffed. “Really? You got nice from him?”

“I think everyone’s nice until they prove otherwise.”

Benji and I were following them up the stairs from the sidewalk to the path that led to the front door. All the homes I’d been to so far, except for Benji’s, were the same. When he turned on the third step to face me, putting us at eye level with one another, I came to an abrupt stop.

“What’s wrong?”

He put a hand on the side of my neck. “I didn’t get a kiss this morning because I wasn’t sure if that was okay in front of your friend.”

“It’s okay in front of my friend,” I assured him, knowing, of course, that I would have questions to answer from Rais, because he knew, after hearing the stories, that Jared Colter’s fixers left and found love. He would have good reason to wonder how far I’d fallen if he saw Benji kiss me. Though the hug was probably as bad, since he’d raised an eyebrow over it.

Benji leaned in and kissed me in that way he had, both possessive and full of longing. He wanted me badly. Feeling the answering rush of heat through my veins let me know he wasn’t the only one affected.

I was breathless when he broke the kiss. “I’m better today,” he informed me. “No fever, no sniffles. I think yesterday was the end, so––”

“Yeah,” I agreed, because if the
