My legs sway.
His arms tighten around me, holding me up.
His tongue sweeps over mine as he pushes for more from me. But there’s no more to give because I’ve given this man every piece of me I can. I’m completely his.
This kiss steals my breath.
Again.
When he ends it, I cling to him as I stare into his beautiful eyes. “I have been practicing,” I say softly.
His eyes crinkle as he smiles. “I can tell.”
I let him go. “I couldn’t let you beat me the next time we played.” My heart doesn’t let up—it keeps beating fast.
So many crinkles frame his eyes. “So you don’t need my help?”
He has no idea.
I always want his help.
“I never say no to help.”
“Really? The Callie I know likes to fight me when I try to help.”
“And the Luke I know doesn’t listen. His DNA prevents that.”
Heat flashes in his eyes. “Turn around, baby. Time to play.”
I’ve not even fully turned when his left arm circles my waist again. His other hand slides over my ass, and he says, “Fuck, you’re beautiful.”
“Are you going to help or are you just going to grope my ass?”
“Groping you sounds like the best plan going forward. Just make sure you slow down your play so I can spend longer on it.”
“God, Luke, are you trying to kill me?”
His lips meet my ear. “Is it working?”
“I’m pretty sure there’s no good answer to that. Either way, you’ll just keep going.”
He chuckles. “You know me so well.” His hand snakes around my waist so he can grip my hip and tilt me back, so his erection grinds against me.
I take my go, not caring when the ball ends up in the gutter. Turning in his embrace, I loop my arms around his neck. I angle my face up to kiss him again. I’m done for. I need his lips as much as I need air.
He ends the kiss and stares down into my eyes. “I’m taking you back to my room now. And I’m going to do what I should have done when you told me you were leaving.”
I bite my lip. “What?”
He bends his face to my ear and growls. “I’m going to fuck some sense into you.”

Luke
Callie stumbles as she takes the last step towards the elevator. I catch her around the waist and steady her while I jab at the elevator button.
“Thank you,” she murmurs. She sounds distracted. Hell, that makes two of us.
