“I’m very happy for you. I can be to you in a matter of a day or so. Just let me know when I can meet this special person. I want to know everything,” Lithis said.
“His name is Phoenix. Nix. And he’s perfect. Handsome, sweet, and the kindest person I’ve ever met.”
“The rookie on your team?”
Evan jerked back. “How do you know that?”
“I follow your career, of course,” Lithis said. “I never miss a game. Never. I’ve even been to a few games in person.”
“You have?” How had Evan never felt his cousin so close? The knowledge that his cousin had been supporting him behind the senses touched him. Evan really did have good people in his life. Something that he needed to remember.
“I cloaked myself but I’ve actually become a fan of hockey. There are so many very attractive players in this new league. I wouldn’t mind getting to know some of your friends.”
That was all Evan needed. His very horny and incorrigible cousin corrupting his friends. “We’ll see.” Which truly meant no chance in hell which they both knew.
Lithis cackled. “Fine. But you will introduce me to Nix soon, or I will do it myself.”
Placing his hand over his heart, Evan dipped his head. “I promise.”
“Thanks for calling,” Lithis set his palm against the mirror.
Evan did the same. Even though there was distance between them, Evan could almost feel the heat from his kin. “Talk soon.”
“You better. I will track you down,” Lithis said.
Evan had no doubt.
The mirror shimmered and Evan was left staring at his own reflection.
Nix would probably get a kick out of the way Evan could communicate with his family. Evan would show him one day. There was much that Nix would learn about his nature.
Evan’s dragon wanted to return to Nix, steal him out of bed, and fly him up into the mountains to be alone. Tempting, so very tempting. Evan had to rely on his more rational human side to turn and start collecting clothes to pack.
They’d take Nix to their mountain sanctuary as soon as possible. That was a vow Evan made to himself and his dragon.
Chapter Eight
Nix
Due to time zone differences within the United States and Canada, Nix could play a game and still make it back to the hotel to watch one of his brothers’ games. He had fifteen minutes until Aries’s game started, and the elevator was so slow!
“Calm down. Dancing around in the elevator won’t make it move any faster,” Evan murmured.
If they had got off on the sixth floor where Nix’s room was located, they would already be in his room and have the game on. Instead, Evan had insisted that they go to his room on the thirty-fourth floor. In the slow elevator.
The entire team was spread throughout the hotel in their own rooms. They had managed to get an elevator to themselves. Probably because not everyone from the team had gone straight back to the hotel. Several of their teammates were headed to a nearby restaurant or the hotel bar but Nix wanted to watch Aries play. He never missed a game if he could help it.
Evan had promised room service and cuddling so of course Nix agreed. He got to cuddle their goalie. All his teammates should be jealous of him. Not that the team knew there would be cuddling happening in Evan’s room. So much cuddling. Hopefully even more than that. Nix couldn’t get the blowjob he’d received out of his head. He wanted to taste Evan in the same manner, but Evan had rules!
Now it was pretty well known in his family that Nix didn’t do well with rules. In his humble opinion, rules were meant to bebroken. Evan didn’t agree. He actually said no sex twenty-four hours before the game. No sex! At least no coming for Evan.
The game was over which had to mean that Nix was going to get sex later, right? He really wanted sex! He was going to go sex-crazed soon. Was that a thing? Nix felt like that was totally a thing.
The bossier that Evan became, the more Nix wanted to hump him.
Ever since Evan had shown up at Nix’s door that morning with breakfast sandwiches and juice, he’d taken complete control over Nix. He’d even insisted that Nix sit by him on the plane instead of by Laney.
Not that anyone on the team looked like they wanted to argue with Evan when he decided something. Nix’s man was all kinds of hot and sexy when he barked orders.
