“What the fuck was that?” I asked as he rose to his feet.
“I just wanted to make sure I didn’t smell another man on you.”
“What?”
“If you had been fucking that dentist, I would have smelled him on you.”
“I could have showered afterward,” I said just to annoy him because, fuck, Iwas annoyed.
“You could have, but you didn’t. I checked the towels in the bathroom.”
“Maybe I just sucked him off. Do you want to smell my breath, too?”
When he didn’t respond, I stared at him for a moment before saying something I probably shouldn’t have.
“You’re insane.”
His face flushed in anger, and I waited for him to explode, but he didn’t.
He took a deep breath before calmly telling me, “I’m not crazy. I’m just in love with you.”
“You have a funny way of showing it. How did you even know Mark was here?”
Eric hesitated before answering. “Leah told me. I asked her to text me if she saw any men going to your house.”
“You asked your eleven-year-old niece to spy on me?”
