Kindle Notes & Highlights
Marcus’s expression turned serious. “Last rule. Stay the fuck away from my little sister.”
She was everything I had ever wanted, my seductress in an innocent package. I wondered if she had any idea just how much control she could have over me.
“That’s my cue.” “You’re disgusting.” “Life’s too short. You’ve got to live a little.” “I would if you’d ease up on the big-brother act,” I shot back at him, and he just winked.
“Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.”
“Love you, Pips. Don’t take too much shit. Okay?” Jax always saw entirely too much. “I’ll try.”
“I’m going to make you come so hard. You’ll forget everything but the fact that I’m the only one able to give it to you.”
“You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting to do that.” I stiffened and tilted my head to the side. “You mean kiss me?” I looked at the hollow at the base of his neck, unable to meet his gaze. “You never even looked at me.” He laughed and kissed me again before speaking against my mouth. “I’ve never looked away.”
“Lucas, this means something to me.” His fingers dug into the back of my hair, his thumb and forefinger massaging my scalp, and his low words reverberated through me. “You’ve always meant more to me. I should’ve told you sooner.”
The realization that Piper was the one for me soothed a deep fear in my chest. She was mine.
“I love her, and I’ll fight for her, Marcus. Even if that means fighting you.”
wasn’t Hodge, golden-boy player. I was Lucas Knight, fuckup.
“Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.” Alex called it out, and we all played our hands. Both Alex and Jax chose rock like the fucking idiots they were, and I held up my paper. Fucking predictable.
“There you go. That’s my girl,” he rasped and placed a kiss on my forehead. “We’ll be out of here soon.”
A ref caught me around the stomach, guiding me backward toward the penalty box like a toddler. I let him maneuver me until I was almost there. “Alright, alright. I’m good.” He looked at me and cocked a brow. “You’re not normally like that out here. Don’t make a habit of it.”
“Uh-huh. How’s Lucas?” A flash of frustration coated me. “Still a dick.” “Still a dick you want to fuck?” Shana grinned. I couldn’t stop my laugh, and my cheeks heated. She knew me entirely too well. “Unfortunately.”
Always. 07-24-2004 He’d gotten a tattoo of my birthday?
“You don’t even know her. But I do. I know what cereal she likes, that her favorite movie is Pride and Prejudice, her favorite song is the ten-minute version of ‘All Too Well.’ I have spent my entire life loving her, and it’ll be a cold fucking day before some asshole brings her to my game.”
“Either claim her, or let her the fuck go.” “What are you, her keeper?” I hissed.
I searched her eyes, and realization sank in. I broke this. I broke us. “I’ll fix this.” “How?” I faked a smile. “You’ll see.”
Lucas: I swear time’s moving in slow motion, babe. I can’t wait to see you tonight. Make sure you’re hungry.
“Have I told you the absolute chokehold these dresses have on me? I’m pretty sure my self-restraint from not pinning you to every surface has taken years off my life.”
I could only hope that orgasms were included in his plan to “woo” me.
“I have plans, Killer.” I laughed and dropped back on my elbows, enjoying the way his eyes traveled over me splayed on the bed. “What sort of plans?” “To feed you, then make you orgasm so hard you forget your own name.” “Okay,”
“How did you remember this is my favorite?” Lucas met me with serious eyes. “I remember everything about you.”
“You drove over an hour each way to get my favorite dinner?” Consider me wooed.
“Breathe. I’ll make you feel good.”
“You bringing her out tonight?” Warmth filled my chest. “I’m never doing anything without her again.”
“You mean, do I love that one of the star hockey players has turned into an absolute simp for me?” She raised a brow playfully. “Yeah, a girl could get used to it.”
“Fuck, I love you with my last name.”
