Dare To Tempt (Dare Nation 2)
Evie placed a hand on his shoulder. “Just like you.”
He dipped his head. “I hate to say it, but I can imagine Jesse behaving the same way just to see his sons succeed.” He actually felt sorry for the kid.
“Once Emerson hears it from his father, he’s going to need understanding. Sounds like you’ve got plenty of that to offer.”
“As team captain, it’s part of my job.” He glanced at Evie. “I just want the truth to come out. I know it’s going to suck for Emerson, but I need my career back and my reputation restored.”
She cupped his cheek in her palm. “I think you’ll have that soon.”
“Thanks to you.” This woman had inserted herself into his life and turned it and him upside down in all the best ways.
He hadn’t thought they had anything in common, only to find they completed each other in every way.
She stood, shimmied out of her skirt and undies, leaving her only in a bra, which she quickly unhooked. His gaze settled on her heavy breasts and his mouth watered. With one hand on his chest, she pushed him down on the bed, and he maneuvered back to give them more room.
She straddled his hips, knees on either side of him. “You need a condom,” she said, rocking her hips and rubbing her sex over his aching dick.
With a groan, he said, “Drawer on my side of the bed.” Because the other side belonged to her. Whether she acknowledged that truth or not.
She left him briefly to grab a condom, then returned, ripped it open and rolling it over him. He watched her work diligently, making sure she covered his cock until finally he jerked his hips up.
“Enough. Ride me or I’m going to lose my mind,” he said through clenched teeth.
“My pleasure.” She lifted her hips and held on to his cock, lowering herself onto his straining shaft.
She slid down and cushioned him in warm, wet heat, causing him to groan. She was heaven and he never wanted to separate from her again.
She began to glide up and down, squeezing her inner muscles tight around him, and the way his body reacted, he wouldn’t last long. Thank God she let out a long moan, letting him know she was close, too.
He braced his hands on her hips and began to lift her up and slam her down, grinding them together until his balls drew up tight and he came hard and fast, lost completely. His climax triggered hers, and she spasmed around him, prolonging his ride.

The Wolfe family dinner went as well as could be expected considering Evie sat beside him strung tight. As he sat at the table, her four brothers eyed Damon with a mixture of suspicion and curiosity. He assumed their wariness was a heightened normal after what had happened with John, and he didn’t blame them. It showed him where Evie got her distrust from, but still, he had to admit he and his brothers would treat any guy that Bri brought home the same way, especially if the meeting was after she’d been hurt.
Evie’s mother, Sunny, had greeted him with a welcoming hug, and her father, Gary, Damon quickly learned was the silent type unless he had something to say.
“So, Damon, how’d you and Evie meet?” Lucas, the EMT, asked in between bites of the most delicious meatloaf and mashed potatoes Damon had ever eaten.
He could handle this softball question. “Evie’s best friend, Quinn, is engaged to my brother, Austin.”
Across the table, her mom looked surprised. “Oh, Evie, I didn’t realize Damon was connected to Quinn. You’ve been quiet about your private life. Ever since John—”
“Mom, we don’t discuss the prick,” Mack said.
“Language!” she chided him.
Evie’s father grunted. “Give me a minute with the son of a bitch.”
Ditto, Damon thought to himself.
She stiffened beside him. “Let’s not discuss John. I don’t want to lose my appetite.”
Beneath the table, Damon grasped her hand and squeezed tight.
Josh shrugged. “Okay, subject change. Damon, how do you think Emerson is going to play for the first four games of the season?”
Evie groaned.
Josh shot her an innocent look. “What? Is there a subject that is good?”
Deke grinned.
“It’s fine. I don’t mind talking about it.” Damon had expected these kinds of questions. “I think the kid’s got a decent arm and he’s going to try his best. I’m hopeful.”
“Good. We’re a Thunder family,” Gary said. “So we’re obviously happy to have you at our table.”
“I appreciate that.” He turned to Lucas and Deke. “What’s it like to do rescue?” he asked the EMT and firefighter.
With his question, Damon distracted them, and for the next half hour, they talked about various calls they’d gone out on, saves they’d made, and even Mack and Evie’s dad shared a few of their more interesting adventures.
