Sexy *NEW* teaser from INSIDE GAME!

"I'll be right next door," she declares.

It's meant to come off as a warning, but instead, it sounds more like an invitation. Yet she's not the type who fools around on the job. I can see that plain as day. She takes what she does very seriously.

Or does she? There's only one way to find out.

I toe out of my shoes and unbuckle my belt, and her eyebrows shoot up to the ceiling. I shouldn't be doing this, but I can't stop now. Her eyes can't help following my every move, and it makes me even more nervous. My hand starts to shake when I undo the top button of my pants, and she lets out an almost inaudible gasp, but I keep going, slowly lowering the zipper. She unconsciously licks her lips, and I feel myself strain against the front of my boxers. She's breathing even heavier now, and the sexy noises she's making spur me on.

I yank my fly down all the way. Just feeling her eyes on me is enough to get me going. I shove my fingers beneath the band of my boxers, giving them a sharp tug until they're riding precariously low on my hips. She gives me a pointed look, telling me with her eyes to stop it right there. But I don't. Instead, I raise my arms and slowly start to remove my shirt, giving her enough time to get a full view of my rock-hard abs, stretching all the way in order to flex my muscles for her.

But by the time I get my shirt over my head, all I'm left with is a lingering trace of her perfume.

She's gone, having vanished to the other side of the suite.

I smirk. That's okay. I got the reaction I’d wanted.

I would have seen her as the enemy if she had stayed and tried to humiliate me by probing me with her stare, acting like I didn't do anything for her, showing her dominance over me.

Because I'm powerless, and she knows it.

A Drake & Jilly teaser from INSIDE GAME!

I plaster a huge smirk on my face and tip my cap to amp them up even more. I know I shouldn't, but I casually let my eyes stray to the brunette again. She's quiet, pensive, leaning forward in her seat, watching me. My head is splitting, and I give myself a moment to concentrate on her and nothing else. The roar of insults fades in and out, and a wave of dizziness threatens to overtake me. I blink to clear my head when her face starts to blend in with all the others. The anxiety I started the game with returns in a rush when I can't seem to find her. Where is she? God, I need to see her—just to get my bearings. Thankfully, for some reason, she stands up and starts pointing skyward.

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I see Jilly a split second before the big guy comes barreling in on me, all six feet eight inches of him. I take a few hurried steps back when the ball bounces off the line and rolls into fair territory. Jilly slides in after it feetfirst, just missing out on making a spectacular catch. He fumbles around in the dirt until the ball's securely in his grasp, checking the runner, who can't advance past second since there are now two New York Kings covering third.

"Do you get off on this or something?" Jilly snarls up at me, dusting off his uniform.

But I didn't muff the play on purpose. I was looking at that girl, trying to hold on to what's left of my sanity. The increased energy and alertness I had in the first few innings are long gone, and now, the wave of despair I was seeking to avoid all night is hitting me dead on.

Just who is Drake Schultz? New quote from INSIDE GAME!

What's Drake afraid of? Find out in the latest teaser from INSIDE GAME!

He starts to shake, and I just hold on to him, rubbing his back, letting him know I'm here for him.

"I really don't want to do this, Eva," he whispers over the birdsong in the trees above us. "Can't we just leave and pretend like none of this ever happened?"

"No," I reply firmly. "Because that's what you've been doing, and it hasn't worked for you."

He rests his head on the handlebars, and I need him to summon every last bit of courage he possesses.

"You need to tell her this hold she has on you is over. It ends today."

When he still doesn't lift his head, I go on.

"You're not going to end up like your father. She's not going to do that to you."

He raises his head and looks back at me. "I refuse to let that happen."

"Good."

I stare into his troubled eyes, which are slowly gaining focus, changing from a cloudy blue to that piercing shade of green that's frightening in its intensity.

He slips off the bike before sliding his hands around my waist and helping me down. We walk side by side toward the path. I leave my hand out just in case he wants to take it, but he doesn't. My knuckles brush against his leg a few times, and I feel like he's already distancing himself from me to prepare for the battle ahead.
