Jenna pulled in front of Mason’s house at three in the afternoon. Mariel had shooed her out the door when Katy left, telling her to go deal with whatever man issues were making her hurt. Jenna had hugged the woman tight, grateful for someone in her life who cared as much as Mariel did.

Jenna knocked on the door and waited with her hands folded in front of her, trying not to let her nerves eat her alive.

It took longer than she expected, but finally the door opened. The smile that spread across Mason’s face lit her up inside.

“Hi.”

“Come in.” He stepped back and opened the door wider.

Jenna stepped inside, but she didn’t see much of the house at first. Her gaze was pinned on the man who wore only a pair of low-riding, gray sweats. His feet were bare. His chest was divine as usual, and she licked her lips before she had the sense to look away.

Trying not to breathe too heavily, she glanced around his home. “Nice place.”

“Thanks.” He shut the door and leaned against it while she perused his front room. The TV was on but not the volume. Some fighting event. The house was immaculate for a bachelor pad, the only thing not strategically placed being the open book that lay on the sofa upside down to save his spot.

“Did I interrupt anything?” She turned toward him, trying not to ogle his chest.

“No. You’d never be interrupting anything. I was reading, but to be honest, I’ve read the same page several times.”

Jenna lowered her gaze. His feet were so sexy it hardly helped. “I’m sorry about last night.”

“Me too. My bad. I’m not very good with words, and when I lose a fight, I need a bit to unwind.”

“I don’t know you well enough to be aware of your needs. I felt…alienated.”

“I realized that later. Well, Katy beat it into me also.”

Jenna smiled. “I don’t care for the fighting,” she blurted.

Mason grinned. “That’s okay. You don’t have to watch me. It’s not mandatory in the girlfriend handbook.”

Did he say girlfriend?

“So you don’t mind if I don’t hang around at these competitions like some sort of groupie?”

“Nope.”

“Did it piss you off for me to see you lose?”

He shook his head. “Of course not. That’s on me. If I want to beat that guy, I’ve got to work harder. He’s a tough opponent. You had nothing to do with it. I’m just sorry you had to see me brood after.”

“Why did you go to the club?”

He shrugged. “Bad choice on my part. I should have gone home. I think I was punishing myself for the way I treated you by sitting at the bar all evening alone.”

Relief washed through her. “You didn’t have to do that. You should have talked to me. I would have understood.”

He nodded. “I should have.”

She turned around and wandered deeper into his space. “Are you always this tidy?”

“Sometimes. Today particularly. I was trying to occupy my mind to keep from coming after you at the shop.
