Inching forward, I reach for his hand and he lifts his gaze to mine. Those deep blue eyes full of sadness, but also something else. Something I haven’t seen there before, the pools of his irises dark and stormy. Interlacing his large fingers with mine, our palms touch, and still he doesn’t break contact.
All the air’s sucked out of the room and I can barely breathe, let alone think of anything reassuring to say. Sparks travel up my arm, straight to my pounding heart, and my entire body’s on fire.
Cam leans in until we’re inches away from each other, his breath warm against my lips. He touches his mouth to mine in a kiss so soft, so light that it’s entirely possible I’m imagining we’re touching at all.
“Cam—”
He pulls away slightly, serious eyes searching my face.
“Sloane, I—” His words vibrate against my skin, chill bumps rising on my flesh.
I shake my head, licking my lips that now taste of mint and Cam.
“Please. Kiss me again,” I whisper.
He doesn’t hesitate, cupping my cheeks in his large,calloused hands. Not breaking his gaze, he presses his mouth to mine in a long, slow kiss and I melt into him.
Giving into all the feelings, all the sensations I’ve been waiting a lifetime for.
And damn, it’s worth the wait.
His tongue teases the seam of my lips and I open to him, wanting to taste him, feel him, let him possess me. He slides in, fully in control, our tongues tangling. Gliding over one another, teasing, testing. He’s delicious, better than the best dessert I’ve ever eaten, and I want more.
More of his touch, more of his body.
More of him.
CHAPTER 16
CAM
Ishouldn’t be doing this.
Kissing Sloane in her childhood bedroom while Coach is asleep on the other side of the house.
It’s wrong on so many levels.
Yet everything about her mouth touching mine feels so, so right.
Like she was made for me. Our lips, our hands, our bodies fit perfectly together.
The dull ache in the pit of my stomach that’s been dogging me since I got axed from the team is gone, replaced with hot, burning desire.
I’m alive again.
Skin soft and smooth against my rough palms as I trace my thumb along her cheek, her shuddery exhalation vibrates my hand. She tastes sweet, like vanilla lip balm, as I lick along the seam of her full lips. Another breathy exhale and I float away on the quiet sound, getting lost in the moment.
Lost in her.
She opens her mouth to me and I dip in, my tongue seeking hers. Swirling round and round, exploring. Sloane’s delicious and I’m a starving man, so damn hungry.
“Cam—” she murmurs, her delicate fingers twining in my hair. A shiver dances across the nape of my neck at her touch and every muscle flexes as her fingertips skip across my skin. My hand slides down to her lower back and I pull her across the bed, closer to me. Heat shimmers between us.
I want her.
I want to lay her down—right here, right now—and make her mine.
“Sloane—” Her name comes out half plea, half moan as I ease away from her supple body. For a long second, I wrestle with myself. “We shouldn’t be doing this.”
