Chapter Thirty-Two

A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH

Lincoln

When I read that text, the good mood I’d been in after our win had morphed into something I’ve never felt before.

Anger mixed with something else ripped through my veins so fast that it had taken all my self-control not to throw the phone across the room.

I’d showered and changed in record time, barely speaking to my teammates while I stewed over it.

Seth shot me a confused look when I’d bailed on dinner with the families, asking him to keep Milo for the night because I had something I needed to do.

I hadn’t given him any time to ask questions as I stormed out of the locker room, ignoring the waiting cameras and fans while I headed for my car.

I’d had to force myself not to drive like a man with a death wish, figuring it probably wasn’t a good idea to break the speed limit after the snow we’d had earlier.

I’d pulled up in front of Adele’s building and killed the engine, trying to make sense of the emotions swirling in my gut.

When I’d buzzed her apartment and got no answer, I’d gone back to the car to wait, the unease growing stronger with each passing moment.

So, when she’d finally appeared at the window, I’d been coiled so tight I was ready to snap .

When she’d called me jealous, it had been like a hit to the head.

I don’t get jealous. I’ve never wanted someone enough to fight for them, or care who else they spent time with.

But the idea of her seeing Ben had apparently triggered my caveman instincts, regardless of the fact that she was the one who ended the relationship, and the knowledge that she has no further interest in him.

And when I told her I don’t share? What I meant was, I won’t fucking share her .

I push her back against my car, crushing her mouth beneath mine while I take possession of her body.

She moans against my lips, clinging tightly to me while I show her exactly how the rest of this night is going to go, sucking the spot beneath her ear so hard I know it’s going to leave a mark.

I plan to leave my mark all over this body by the time the night is through.

As much as I want to take her right here, right now, my common sense manages to break through the primitive part of my brain screaming to bend her over the hood of the car, and I yank her keys from her hand.

“Inside. Now.” I don’t even recognize my voice right now.

Did I just fucking growl?

Her pupils dilate as she looks up at me beneath those beautiful, thick lashes.

I take her hand and pull her towards the door of the building, smacking her security fob against the panel and tugging her inside.

Our footsteps echo through the small lobby, and I can hear my heart thundering in my ears while I smash the arrow pointing up beside the elevator doors.

By some miracle, the doors open immediately, and I push her backwards into the waiting elevator.

Pressing her against the side wall while I claim her lips once again, I barely look at the panel when I hit the button for her floor.

I don’t care if I’m too rough. I know she can take it.

Especially when she kisses me back with the same level of intensity, fisting my shirt in her hand at my chest and pulling me in even closer.

Once we stumble into the hall on her floor, I lift her, and she wraps her legs around my waist while I continue to kiss her hungrily, walking us towards her door a few steps away.

I press her back against the door, grinding myself against her core while I blindly shove the key into the lock, sucking on her neck until she gasps and tosses her head back to give me better access.

Yeah, she can definitely handle what I’m going to do to her tonight.

When we’re finally inside, I walk her to the back of the couch, putting her down and yanking her sweater and shirt over her head in one quick movement.

Barely giving her a chance to gain her balance, I snap the clasp on her bra and toss it aside, bending to suck her nipple into my mouth, letting my teeth graze the sensitive peak and chuckling darkly when she gasps, pressing her chest further into my face.

Moving across to her other breast, I nip at the tender skin, eliciting another moan from her. “You like it when I take control like this, don’t you, Addie? You want me to show you just how far your body can go?”

“Yes,” she whispers.

“Good.” I pull her to her feet, spinning her around and yanking her tights down, along with her underwear, leaving her ass exposed with her thighs trapped together by the fabric punched at her knees. “Cause I’m going to show you exactly how much your body can take.”

Pushing her forward so that she’s bent over the back of the couch, I plunge two fingers inside her, and she gasps.

Pumping my fingers in and out, I slide my other hand around to rub her clit, loving the way she moans.

I keep going as she whimpers, her moans growing louder as I bring her closer to orgasm .

“Oh… god,” she moans, and I smack her lightly on the ass, causing her to jump.

“The only name that comes from those pretty red lips better be mine while I’ve got my fingers inside you.”

She looks over her shoulder at me when I slow my hand down, raising an eyebrow. “I would have thought you’d be happy to be called a god in bed,” she says with a smirk, and I smack her ass again.

“Do you want to come or not, Addie?” She nods, gasping when I flick her clit. “Then I want to hear you scream my name when you do it, understand?”

She draws in a breath, wriggling against my hand, and I can tell she’s searching for more friction.

“Yes, sir,” she whimpers, and the use of the word sir makes me even harder.

Apparently, I liked that a lot. Guess we’ll be working that into our sex life from now on.

I lower my mouth to her ear. “Have you ever been edged before?” She shakes her head, her breathing erratic when I begin to move my hand faster again. “Guess we’re about to find out just how hard I can make you come then.”

I get to work, bringing her to the edge of orgasm over and over, backing off just as she’s about to come each time. She groans in frustration, whimpering and begging, almost sobbing, until I know she can’t take it anymore.

I pull both hands away completely and she glares at me over her shoulder, her eyes glazed over.

Yanking my wallet from my pocket, I take out the condom I have stored there for emergencies.

Not bothering to undress, I unzip my suit pants and pull my erection out of my boxers.

She continues to watch over her shoulder while I roll the condom on, the lust in her eyes enough to make me lose control here and now.

Once the condom is on fully, I slide my finger inside her once again, and she groans, letting her head droop forward as she rocks back onto my hand.

“Please,” she whispers.

“You want it bad, don’t you?” I slide my erection against her clit while she sucks in a breath.

“Yes, please, Linc,” she begs.

“I suppose I’ll give you what you want. Hold on.”

She grips the back of the couch on either side of her hips, gasping sharply when I slam inside her.

I’m not gentle, but I’m not a complete brute, reaching around once again to find her clit while I thrust in and out, nice and shallow as her body adjusts. With the way her legs are pinned together, she feels even tighter, and I know I won’t last long.

Her moans grow louder while I thrust into her over and over, feeling her inner walls tighten around me while I rub her clit.

“Fuck! Don’t stop.” Her words are music to my ears, a reminder that this woman is a perfect match for me.

She likes it when I’m gentle, worshipping her body like a princess.

But she loves it when I claim her as mine.

The small part of myself that I was holding back snaps, and I grab her hair, holding her still while I drive myself into her. She explodes around me, screaming my name while she comes, her knuckles turning white while she continues to grip the couch.

I don’t slow down, driving her hips bones into the hard surface as I pull her head back and slam my lips into hers, claiming her moans as my own orgasm rips through me so hard I almost see stars.

Moving my hand from between her legs, I hold her body tightly against mine as shock waves run through both our bodies, staying like that for a long time until our breaths slowly even out, and I can finally see properly again.

“Jesus. I don’t think I’ve come that hard, ever,” I say, lowering my head to rest on her shoulder.

I feel her body shake with silent laughter. “Me neither. Jealous Lincoln is a force to be reckoned with.”

Shame over my actions replaces the green-eyed demon that was controlling me moments earlier, and I press a kiss to her skin before straightening. “I’m sorry.”

She looks up at me over her shoulder, one eyebrow raised as she runs her gaze over my face. “What for?”

Still inside her, I’m scared to break the connection between us, worried that I took things too far. “For turning into a complete Neanderthal. Apparently, jealous Lincoln likes it rough.” I press my head to her shoulder but make no move to step back, and she remains relaxed in my arms.

She raises her hand to grip the back of my head, urging me to look up, and she pulls my face to hers.

“Don’t you dare apologize for that. I loved every second of it.

Even though there was absolutely nothing to be jealous about.

” She kisses me softly, and the tension in my shoulders loosens for the first time since I got that message.

Finally easing out of her, I discard the condom while she pulls her tights up, turning to face me when I return and pull her into my arms.

“I don’t suppose you have more condoms here?” I ask, kissing my way down her neck slowly.

“I do, as a matter of fact. Thought I might need them after how insatiable we both were in New York.” She tilts her neck to give me better access, curling her fingers in the hair at the back of my neck.

“Good. Cause now I’m going to worship this body for the rest of the night.” And with that, I lift her again, carrying her into her bedroom and follow through on my promise.
