Page 70 of Breaking the Pucking Rules (LA Vipers #1)

KODIE

M y hand wraps around the back of her neck, and my lips crash down on hers.

My patience is gone.

Mom has spent the last few hours trying to convince me to take the keycard and get a good night's sleep.

I’ve got a game tomorrow, and the last thing I need is a night attempting to sleep in a chair.

I’d do it, though. For Sutton, I’d do anything.

But Mom insisted that she’d be the one to stay and all but shoved me out of the room once I’d run out of excuses.

I know Mom can be sneaky when she wants to be, but this is something else.

Casey whimpers as my tongue pushes inside her lips.

Desire fills every inch of me, my cock already hard and aching for her as her sweet scent floods my nose.

My grip on her waist tightens as her tongue eagerly glides against mine.

Her fingers twist in my hair before her nails drag across my scalp, making me shudder.

“Kodie,” she whispers like a prayer into our kiss, and it’s the final spark that lights my fuse.

Spinning her around, I press her back against the wall before hitching her leg up around my waist so I can grind into her.

She’s right. We should talk, but I’m not sure I’m capable of forming words right now, let alone thinking.

“Oh god,” she cries, breaking the kiss, her head hitting the wall as my lips graze across her jaw and down her neck. “Kodie.”

I breathe her in as I kiss down the soft skin of her throat, wondering how I managed to go without her for so long.

“I’m sorry,” I repeat. “I’m so fucking sorry.”

“Me too,” she gasps as I suck on the patch of skin beneath her ear. Her fingers twist in my hair, tugging tight enough to send a shot of pain down my neck. It hits me right in the balls. “I need you. I need you so badly.”

“I didn’t think I was going to get this again,” I confess, the words falling from my lips. “You’re all I’ve been able to think about.”

“Then why were you ignoring me?”

“Because…because I thought it was the right thing to do.”

I pull back and look into her eyes.

“It was the right thing to do,” I tell her honestly. “But it’s been fucking killing me.”

“Me too.”

“I’ve been fucking up on the ice,” I say, although if she’s watched any games, she’s probably well aware. “You’re all up in my head, Casey. Under my skin.”

Her eyes glisten with moisture as she rolls her lips between her teeth.

After a beat, she nods, reaching for my hand that’s resting on her waist and pressing it against her chest, right over her heart.

“In here,” she whispers, her voice cracked with emotion.

My breath catches in my throat.

I’ve heard women say all kinds of things over the years in the hope of having me for more than a night. But I have never heard them said so sincerely. And they’ve certainly never affected me the way Casey’s do.

My heart stutters in my chest, my stomach knots with a mixture of nerves and excitement, and my hands noticeably tremble.

I’m fucking scared.

Reaching for her other hand, I mimic her movements, pressing her palm to my chest.

“You feel that?” I ask, my voice deep and raspy.

It takes her a couple of seconds, but she nods.

“You terrify me, Casey,” I confess.

She swallows thickly.

“This terrifies me,” I add. “I’ve never felt like this. I’ve never wanted anything like this. My life…it’s hard. My schedule, my daughter?—”

“I don’t care about hard, Kodie. Nothing can be as hard as not having you in my life. It was okay before when I was just watching you from afar. I knew you were incredible, but I didn’t know . But now that I do, I don’t know how to continue with my life without you in it.”

“Fuck,” I breathe, leaning forward and letting my head rest against hers. Her honesty floors me. She fucking floors me.

“I don’t know what’ll happen if we do this. Your dad...he could trade me. He?—”

“Then I’ll follow you,” she says without missing a beat.

“But your job. Your life?—”

“I can get a job anywhere. I can’t find you anywhere.”

“Why me?” I ask, hating how vulnerable I sound but powerless to do anything about it.

“Because you’re you,” she says, her big green eyes staring up at me. Honesty and desire flickers within them.

“Casey.”

“Please tell me that this is it,” she begs.

I swear, she may as well claw my chest open and rip my heart out at this point.

It’s hers.

Everything is fucking hers.

“It’s not going to be easy.”

“It would be boring if it was,” she counters.

“I’ll fuck up.”

“So will I.”

“I can’t put you first.”

“You shouldn’t. Sutton always comes first.”

“Goddamn.”

My lips find hers again, and I kiss her until we’re both breathless and she’s clawing at my shoulders, desperate for more.

“Kodie, I need you. Please,” she begs.

I can’t help but smirk against her lips. Will I ever get enough of her begging me? Fuck, I hope not.

She shrieks as I wrap both of my hands beneath her thighs and lift her from the floor.

Instantly, her legs wrap around my waist.

Pulling her from the wall, I walk her over toward the bed with her arms locked around my neck, as if she’s scared I’ll disappear if she lets me go.

Breaking our kiss, I let her back hit the mattress before reaching for her arms and tugging them free.

“I promise, I’m not going anywhere.”

Standing to full height, I pull my cell from my pocket and put it on sleep mode. That way, the only person who’ll be able to get through is Mom, and if she calls, it’ll be an emergency.

Placing it on the nightstand, I reach over my head and pull my hoodie off, leaving my torso bare for her to feast on.

Her eyes trace every single line and muscle until she hits my waistband, and then a little lower.

I don’t need to look to know that I’m tenting my sweats.

“Please,” she whimpers before her hands go to the tie knotted around her middle.

“No,” I command, pressing one knee to the mattress.

“No?” she echoes with a deep frown forming between her brows.

Pulling her arms away, I throw them back on the bed.

“I undress you,” I state, letting my eyes track down her towel-covered body.

Fire burns through my veins just knowing what hides beneath it.

When I get back up to her face, she’s biting down on her bottom lip, her eyes almost black with desire.

“Tell me what you want.”

“You. Everything. ”

I quirk a brow, needing more detail than that.

“Your mouth. I want it on mine, on my neck, on my tits, my pussy. I want to come all over your face, and then I want you to kiss me after.”

“Christ,” I grunt as precum soaks into my boxers.

“Then I want you to fuck me. I want you to stretch me open and remind me just how well we fit together.”

As she talks, I tug at the tie around her waist, finally freeing it.

Slowly, I peel the fabric back, revealing inches of her beautiful skin.

All the air in my lungs comes out in a rush as I stare down at her swollen breasts, her peaked nipples.

“Kodie,” she whimpers, her hips grinding in her need for friction.

Reaching for her ankles, I place her feet flat on the bed before spreading them so I can see all over her.

Her pussy glistens and my mouth waters to follow her orders.

Patience.

“I haven’t even touched you and you’re dripping.”

“I told you; I need you.”

“Fuck,” I mutter, scrubbing my rough jaw while my other hand squeezes my length. Her eyes drop, watching me. “The feeling is mutual.”

“So, what are you waiting for?”

“I have no fucking idea.”

Falling over her, I catch myself with a hand on either side of her head before ducking lower and claiming her lips.

She tastes like wine and my ultimate addiction.

Her hands burn as she runs them down my back, and I shudder when she drags her nails all the way back up.

“More,” she begs.

“Needy little thing, aren’t you?” I mutter into the sweet skin of her neck.

“For you, always.”

Peppering kisses over her collarbone, I continue lower until I’m sucking one nipple and then the other into my mouth. She arches off the bed, crying out as I nip her gently.

“Tell me you’re mine,” I demand, my eyes locked on hers.

“Kodie,” she breathes. Just hearing her say my name does things to me. “I’m yours. I always have been.”

“Fuck,” I groan, descending to where I really want to be.

Pressing my hands against her inner thighs, I pin them to the mattress, giving my shoulders enough space.

“Did you want me to eat you, Trouble?”

“God, yes,” she cries as I blow a teasing stream of air over her heated skin.

“Such a pretty pussy. I should feel bad about ruining it. But I don’t. This is mine,” I say, dragging a single finger from her clit to her entrance.

“Yours,” she breathes, her muscles trying to suck me deeper when I tease her entrance.

“It’s been too long,” I muse before surging forward and licking the length of her pussy.

Her taste floods my mouth, and I groan in a mixture of delight and torture.

My dick hurts, it’s so fucking hard.

I need her. But I’m the one who needs to prove himself. I’m the one with the huge apology to make, and I’m going to make sure she more than gets hers before I even consider getting mine.

“Kodie,” she screams, her fingers sinking into my hair, attempting to drag me closer as I suck on her clit.

She writhes on the bed as I eat her like a man starved.

In only a few short minutes, she’s trembling and on the cusp of her first orgasm.

“Have you been dreaming about this, baby?” I ask, my lips still on her.

“Yes, yes. Every night,” she cries. “Please, don’t stop.”

With a smirk, I get back to work, and I don’t come up for air until she’s screamed out my name and fallen limp on the bed.

“Missed you,” she muses as I sit back and stand at the end of the bed.

She watches me with hooded, exhausted eyes as I tuck my fingers under the waistband of my sweats and boxers, and shove them down.

“Oh yeah?” I muse as I wrap my hand around myself and stroke slowly.

“You’re beautiful,” she tells me as I crawl onto the bed and between her legs.

“Not as beautiful as you.”

Hitching her leg around my hip, I grind my dick against the burning heat of her pussy.

My eyes hold hers, the air crackling between us.

“You’re everything, Casey. My everything.”

“Kodie, I?—”

I cut off whatever she’s about to say, terrified it’s going to be something I’m not ready to hear.

With our lips locked together, I reach down and find her entrance, coating myself in her juices before I push inside her.

One word hits me as I slide deep inside her body.

Home.
