Doctor Silver fox: A Forbidden Age Gap Best Friend's Daughter Spicy Romance

"We have zero tolerance for mediocrity in this department."

I said it while she was still fumbling with her ID badge, cheeks flushed, ten minutes late. I said it harder than I needed to, because for two full seconds I had forgotten what I was saying entirely. 🚫

Bella Regan is twenty-four years old.

I am forty-eight.

I am Chief of this department, I have built a reputation nobody in this hospital questions, and I have known her since she was a child in pigtails at her father's dinner table.

Paul is my best friend. Paul trusts me with her. I signed her recommendation letter myself.

And I am standing here watching her tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, biting her lip while she catches up on what she missed, feeling something low in my gut that a man my age has no business feeling.

She looks at me like I am the only steady thing in the room.

I look at her like she is art.

One night. That was the deal I made with myself. One night and then I go back to being the man who knows better.

I was never going back. 🔥
