Love in Game (De La Fuente Family 6)

He stills at my words and I close my eyes in distress. I’m going to have to be as honest as I can be for now. “I don’t mean that the way it sounds.” I lift my gaze and hold his. “My brother is a bit controlling.” I wince. “So I don’t want to give him any opportunity to come between us okay? And trust me, if he knows that I’ve met anyone he’ll go nuts.”

Kasey frowns. “I’m not sure I like the sound of your brother.”

I offer Kasey a wry smile. “He’s my only family and losing our parents so suddenly, really affected us both, and sometimes I think it hurt Blake even more. I love him, Kasey, and I’m not afraid of him.” So far I’m capable of standing up to him but I know him, and if he gets wind of Kasey, then he’d make it difficult for me to see him. “Trust me okay. He’d have me back in Cleveland before we had a chance to blink if he knew about you. He can’t know about you for now. Please, Kasey,” I beg, hoping he’ll understand.

Kasey

“I’m not comf

ortable with sneaking around, Felicity. Because that’s what you’re asking me to do if we spend time together, which is what I want.” I grunt in irritation.

“I want to spend time with you too. So much. I’ve been really miserable since I left you in that room. You have no idea how many times I’ve wished to be able to go back and do it all again. Leave you a note or even be brave enough to wake you.” She moans and the sound does things to my body that I don’t think she’s ready for. “I’d spend all my time with you if I could.” She sighs. “Please…say something.”

Cupping the back of her neck with an unsteady hand, I use the other to gently caress along one side of her face. “I’m thinking that I’d do just about anything if it means that I get to spend time with you.” My lips are just shy of brushing against hers as I repeat, “Anything,” before giving in to temptation and softly caressing her pink lips with mine.

The feel of her hands on my skin as they slip under my shirt has my body tightening with desire. She has no clue what she does to me and that, combined with it being Felicity, turns me on all the more.

I break from the kiss, panting and trying to remember where we are, but as her hands slip around to my back and dip slowly into the back of my slacks, I reclaim her lips. I move my mouth, hard and demanding, devouring her softness, wanting so much more from this beautiful woman in my arms.

Growling in the back of my throat, I drag her into my arms and grasping her bottom with my hands, I haul her completely against me, pushing her into the door with my hips.

She isn’t still, and rocks against my dick while I’m unable to stop kissing her. Our mouths fit together as though we were made for each other, and the feel of finally having her in my arms is bringing me to my knees. My body screams for me to shove my hands into her panties and rip them from her body so that I can feel her, wet and tight around me.

But then, the banging on the door interrupts us. I want to ignore it, but hearing Andie’s, “Kasey,” whispered angrily through the door makes me see reason. So with regret, I pull my mouth from hers, and gaze into her eyes. I smile and brush a gentle kiss across her forehead before helping her regain her balance.

“Give us a minute,” I answer Andie, but I can’t seem to stop touching Felicity.

“I hope,” I breathe against her lips, “that you don’t expect me to apologize for that, because it was the most intense kiss that I’ve ever shared with anyone.”

“You feel it too,” she whispers.

I chuckle. “I feel so much when I’m with you.”

“Kasey?” Andie hisses. “Dammit, get out of there.”

“I think we need to go,” I say, regret rushing through me. “Can I have your number?” I smile at how corny it sounds.

“Here.” She passes me her cell. “Put yours in there and then message yourself so we have each others.”

“I like the way you think.” Quickly doing what she asked, we exchange numbers, but I have to ask, “When can I see you again?”

“My brother’s shooting tomorrow morning for a calendar, so I could try and get away then.”

“Wait. What calendar?” I frown and wait her answer.

“It’s a sports thing.”

“NHL?” I curse and snatch the door open just as Andie is about to bang the thing again. I scowl at her.

“I’m sorry that I’m interrupting, but your teammate, who now has a sore foot thanks to my high heel, is looking for you. They’re about to start with instructions for tomorrow.”

“Shit.” I run my hands through my hair and stare at Felicity. I’m afraid to let her go in case I don’t see her again for another three months. “What’s your brother’s name? Which team?”

“Blake Kelly. Cleveland Flyers.”

Double shit!
