“Are you coming?” I ask.
He shakes his head. The heat in his gaze still burns through me. “Now you don’t have to go to Mike’s, looking for someone to kiss you.”
“What if I was looking for more than kissing?”
One side of his mouth lifts. “If you think someone can fuck you better than I just kissed you, be my guest.”
So fucking confident. Also, he’s probably right.
“That’s it?”
Reaching forward, he pulls the door closed between us.
“I can’t believe you just did that,” I yell at him through the door.
“Night, Ev.”
A few seconds pass before his footsteps sound on the porch, heading back to his vehicle. I turn and rest my back against the wooden door and then laugh. “You win this round.”

WHATEVER YOU SAY, CAP
JACK
Hell is Everly in a bikini smiling at me like she wants me to kiss her again.
She hasn’t said anything about the kiss all afternoon, but the way that she looks at me tells me she’s thinking about it as much as I am.
She’s already gone through my email, but she sits with her legs outstretched watching me while I finish my workout.
“Stop looking at me like that,” I warn, cocking a brow.
She’s the one in a skimpy suit, but she’s looking at me like she can see my dick growing harder through my shorts.
“Like what?” she asks innocently.
She wants me to say it. She wants to know how I see her and watch me squirm as I wrangle with the fact I kissed her last night.
I should have done more. I should have fucked that look right off herface last night.
Because now that I’ve had some time and distance, I’m not going to let her push me into acting again.
She uncrosses her ankles, drawing my attention back to her long, tan legs. “I’m gonna swim. Are you coming in after you’re done here?” Her eyes drop to my bare chest as she unabashedly checks me out.
“I can’t. I have to go to the arena.”
“Oh.”
I want to kiss the disappointed look off her face. My head is conflicted. No, that’s not true. My head is clear on what to do, but other parts of me are not on board. Nothing has changed. She’s still too young for me, still my teammate’s sister, and still completely off-limits.
“Maybe you could pick me up later though? I need to drop the SUV off to have some maintenance done.”
“Maybe.” She gets to her feet and then walks closer.
Don’t look at her tits, man. Don’t do it.I do not have time for a cold shower today.
“Or I can grab an Uber if you’re going to be busy swimming in my pool.”
