My teammates have no fucking clue I’m the furthest thing from a prude.
“Are you going to like it when I make you eat dinner because taking care of you is another one of my kinks?”
“Fuck. Look at your pretty pussy. I’m going to like torturing you.”
“Your sarcasm is one of my favorite things about you.” “What else do you like?” “Your perfect fucking tits. Your smile. Your hips when I hold them and fuck you from behind. How you do this small laugh right before you come and the way you whisper my name when something feels really fucking good.”
“Please let me come,” she whispers, legs trembling. “I want to come, Hudson.” “No, sweetheart,” I say.
“I promise I’ll let you come soon, okay?”
“This is the hottest thing I’ve ever done. It’s more than okay.”
again. “I really like this. I didn’t know if I’d be into something so… dominating. Especially because you’re the kindest man I’ve ever met. But it’s so hot.”
“I like seeing this possessive side of you. I like thinking it’s a part of you only I will ever see, and I want more of it.”
“I have a confession to make. It’s a secret I’ve been keeping for you for months.”
“The hottest thing I’ve ever seen,”
“Then suck away, Mads. But I’m going to stop you before I come. While I love to watch you swallow, that’s not where I’m finishing tonight.”
“I want you to fuck me like I’m yours,” I say, and his face softens. “Like you’re going to stay with me until the end of time. However that looks… that’s what I want.”
“You’re perfect.”
“I’ve got you, Maddie. Now. Forever. I promise.”
“That was…” I gasp for air and exhale. “The best moment of my life.” “The standard is going to be unbelievably high from now on, isn’t it?”
“You’re god’s gift to women,”
“You know what happens now?” “Round two?” “Those were the most intense two hours of my life, sweetheart, and I’m a professional athlete. I’m going to need a minute before we go again.”
“When I have enough oxygen in my lungs, we’re going to take a shower. I’m going to wash your hair and wrap you in a towel, then we’re going to fall asleep until I wake you up in the middle of the night to do that again. In the morning, we’ll pick up Lucy and grab some doughnuts on the way home. Thoughts?”
I love you, I think. I love you so much, my wasted heart is finally healed because of
“Shut up.” She elbows me. “You’re so much more than that. You’re…” The love of my life. My everything.
“I love you,” he says all of a sudden, and I freeze. “I love you so much. You and Lucy are the greatest things to ever happen to me, and I… I love you so much it hurts, Maddie, to think about my life without you in it. I… I can’t hold it in anymore. I know I said I’d be patient, but you need to hear it and—” “I love you, too,”
“I love you so much, and I’ve loved you for so long. Even when I didn’t know what the feeling was. You’ve done so much for me and for Lucy and… I just want to make sure you’re sure. That this is really what you want, because there’s not going to be a wedding. There aren’t going to be more kids. It’s going to be the three of us, and I want to know if that’s enough.”
“Sweetheart. You are everything to me. I want you, and I don’t give a shit about anything else.”
“Loving you is easier than anything I’ve ever done. It’s like breathing. Something that comes naturally, because I don’t have to think about it. You’re just… there. Perfect and wonderful and mine. Made for me, I think.”
“I love you, Madeline Galloway. I’ve loved you from the moment I laid eyes on you. I love how strong you are. How wonderful of a mother you are. I love your sarcasm, but I also love when you slow things down. You make me feel things I’ve never felt before. And if there’s ever a doubt in your mind, I want you to ask me, because that means I’m not doing a good enough job of showing you how fucking gone I am for you.”
“When I’m with you, I’m the most sure I’ve ever been about anything in my entire life.”
“A loving best friend. A gentle romantic partner. A teammate.”
“A father figure,”
“The people who love you—me. Lucy. Maverick and the boys. Your dad. Your mom—we s...

“I meant you. To feel like I’m living and not just surviving. I didn’t know if my heart could take losing my mom. There were so many days where I pretended I was okay. Where I’d smile and laugh at practice with the guys then come home and cry myself to sleep because I was so fucking sad. I haven’t been sad since meeting you, though. You’ve… you’ve poured love into the cracks I’ve tried so hard to fill myself, and I think I’m finally whole again.”
If we pull this win off, I’m buying him a really nice fucking gift.
“For you, Mama,” I whisper.
“BACK TO BACK, BABY,” Grant yells,
“Get your ass over here, Galloway, so I can celebrate with my girls.”
“I’m so proud of you,” she whispers. “And your mom is so proud of you.”
“That goal was for her. Felt like the perfect way to end the best year of my life.”
“God. I love you, Maddie.” “I love you too, Hudson, but you should be with your teammates. You all have worked so h...

“And speaking of loving things, have I told you yet today how much I adore you? How much I fucking love you?”
He’s clueless about the adoption papers she begged me to file so Hudson could legally be her dad.
Great game tonight. Thanks, princess,
“You did. You came into my life, and it’s been the biggest blessing I could ever ask for. I was so fucking lonely before you and Lucy got here, but look at us now.”
