"Just the tip," I suggested, pressing my hard nipples to his chest.
Hayden chuckled. "Just the tip," he repeated my request in a sweet, yet mocking tone. I tried to sink down, but he was stronger than me and stopped it from happening.
"No." Hayden drew out his reply, but his actions defied his words. I hummed at the silky touch of his cock.
This was why I liked being with Kova. He was ruthless and obsessive and wicked. He wore devious as if it were a fashion statement. Without trying, he roused something deep within me that I gravitated toward. Neither one of us could comprehend it, but we complemented each other in the worst ways possible.
"I wo
n't be able to stop once I'm in."
Leaning forward, I nuzzled his neck with my nose. His Adam's apple bobbed and I ran my tongue over it, twirling it across his neck and sucking the skin between my teeth. I bit down. His body tightened and trembled against mine.
"Fuck," Hayden muttered under his breath and I grinned. He was losing his battle and I realized I secretly thrived on breaking him down. The power of seduction was something I was finding intoxicating. I did it to Kova, and now I was doing it to Hayden.
"And stopping would be a bad thing?" I asked, trying to lower myself and clench around the tip to entice him. It worked, because he hissed, prodding forward even more. Pleasure wracked my body from the small victory.
"Very bad." His words were thick with need. "I can't take you raw."
"Why? It feels incredible, Hayden."
"Believe me, I know how it feels," he said. "Now I can see why Kova can't resist you. I'd never side with the bastard, but I have this feeling that everything that happened between you two was because of you. You make it fucking impossible. Fucking. Impossible. To. Say. No."
Then, gripping my hips fiercely, he shoved me down onto his length and selflessly gave me what I wanted.
I just hoped I wouldn't regret it.

Once I was out of the shower, I quickly dressed and walked into the living room to tidy up while Hayden finished in the bathroom. The weight on my chest was surprisingly a little lighter, though the sorrow still pulsed in my veins. I could breathe again, but only in short, tight breaths. A sting in the tail, but I'd take it.
Bending down, I picked up the throw pillows and placed them back on the couch. The back of my calf still felt a little sore and I knew I needed to take some Motrin soon. I folded the throw blanket, then picked up Hayden's shorts. A soft thud caught my attention. Hayden's cell phone lay on the floor near my feet. I picked it up and flipped it over, checking to make sure the screen hadn't cracked, when it began vibrating in my palm.
Reagan.
There was something about seeing Reagan's name flash on Hayden's cell phone that didn't quite sit well with me. Not that he was mine, or that other girls couldn't call him. I wasn't like that unless it came to Kova, but I was under the impression they were hardly friends and more along the lines of acquaintances. I'd never seen them talk in the gym, and considering we were there over forty hours a week, there was a lot to observe and note. You could learn a lot about someone without having to communicate.
Unless there was something wrong with his twin, Holly. That was probably the case. Holly and Reagan were good friends.
I walked toward my bedroom to let Hayden know his phone was ringing. As I reached the door, the ringing stopped, and so did I.
My stomach tightened. Four missed calls, all from Reagan. Not one from his sister. I stood there as the phone vibrated in my hand with an incoming text message, followed by another, then another.
Betrayal slammed into me like a semi-truck for the second time today. The air in my lungs dissipated and I clutched my chest, thinking the worst.
Reagan: What time are you coming?
Reagan: I need you.
Reagan: Hello? Is everything okay?
I'd been so blind. The thought of them together made me sick to my stomach. Reagan needed him, just like I had needed him earlier.
The phone buzzed in my hand again as a fourth message came in, totally confusing me.
Reagan: OMGGGG Where are you!? I need my pills.
Pills? What kind of pills? Why would Hayden have her pills?
