TIMMONS

I force myself to look away, choosing to face the large stone fireplace when the Doc reaches all the way into the top of Kendall’s Moonlight Lounge crop top to press the stethoscope between her breasts. Even though I know he’s only doing what I asked him to, I can’t seem to dull the sudden spike of anger that surges up my spine in seeing his bare hands so close to her nipples. I want to tie the goddamned thing around his throat so that he can hear himself choke to death, but instead I say, “Tell me again, good doctor, why did you forgo the gloves?” I chuckle, wondering for a half a minute, if the Doc is sporting a hard or Because if he is…

Fuck that shit. Shake it off. Now you’re just being stupid.

But I can’t help myself, I tilt my head his way and my eyes flick toward his crotch. Fucking scrub pants! He’s wearing scrubs?! At home?

Damn it!

enough of this radio silence, I pivot back toward the couch to find the Doc with one hand on Kendall’s bare waist and the other dipped underneath her with the cord of the stethoscope protruding out from under her shirt. This sneaky motherfucker–could be doing anything to her back there and I wouldn’t know a thing. My hands fists at my sides and my eyes lock on the one hand that I can see. “Rhodes-” I begin calmly, my tone

right, I’m supposed to be on lookout for the Elder Fools Tiny Balls Division. The hunters…their enforcers…shit! The Doc and I lock eyes for a moment as I whip out my phone, but he remains with his hands on Kendall’s body. Bastard. I answer the damn thing on the third ring as we stare

in mock surrender and scowl at him in return. My eyes narrow into slits as he begins to chuckle soundlessly
