“Boom!” Harper yells, cheeks flushed, eyes bright as she slaps her controller against her thigh. “Take that, Spellman!”

I can’t believe it. She actually beat me. I mean, it’s kind of a game of chance, but I was so sure I had it in the bag. Right up until my dumb ass landed on Park Place and went bankrupt.

Harper shoots me a smug grin and pretends to buff her nails on her scrubs. Joke’s on her, though, because I’m going to give her a foot rub she’ll never forget. By the time I’m done, the hospital’s fraternization policy will be the last thing on her mind.

“You wanna do a victory lap or are you ready to come over here and claim your prize?” I ask, pitching my voice low.

She squeaks and hops to her feet, eyes wide. “I’m—I’m going to have to take a rain check.”

“No way,” I say, pointing a finger at her. I turn my hand around and crook the finger toward myself, gesturing for her to come closer. “That wasn’t our deal, Harper.”

“Technically,” she says, toying with the end of her braid, “we never specified a timeline for prize distribution, so…”

“Get your sexy ass over here and let me massage your feet. You’ve been taking care of me all day. Now it’s my turn to take care of you.”

“As lovely as that sounds, that’s not really how the whole nurse-patient relationship works,” she says, scrunching up her nose.

“You’re off duty,” I say, rolling my eyes. Damn, what I wouldn’t give to be able to get out of this bed. The woman has me at a serious disadvantage and she knows it, keeping just out of my reach. “Besides, I’m going to be released in a few days anyway.”

“And yet, here you are,” she says, gesturing to me and my bed with a broad sweep of her arm.

“I’m barely even a patient,” I argue, scrambling to make my case. “The doc is just keeping me out of an abundance of caution. I’m sure it’s documented on my chart.”

“Oh, okay,” she says, sarcasm dripping from her words as she packs up the game cart. “I’ll be sure to tell that to Nurse Rogers when she fails my ass.”

“Now you’re just being dramatic,” I say, knowing it’ll get a rise out of her.

“Says the guy who climbed a drainpipe in a freaking toga.”

I ignore that bit. No good will come from talking about that night. Not if Harper still thinks I’m hung up on Red. And while I can see why she might be apprehensive about my intentions, I’m not the kind of guy to fuck around. I don’t do casual sex. Hell, I haven’t even dated since last year. “Come on. You know you want it.”

She turns and shoots me a dark look. “You know you sound like a creeper, right?”

I consider my word choice. “Fair point, but that doesn’t make it any less true.”

“It’s unprofessional.”

“It’s a foot rub, not a full-body massage,” I fire back. “Unless you want to upgrade?”

She rolls her eyes and pushes the cart over to the door.
