It took a while for our bodies to regain their equilibrium. Once I felt as though I would be steady on my feet, I gave Finley a lingering kiss, then gently shifted her off me and padded over to the bathroom.
As I wiped our combined essence off my dick, I shook my head at myself.I should not be this fucking turned on by the sight of her blood.But fuck if I could help it. My dick had alreadystarted hardening, anxious to be inside her again. Especially if it meant filling her with more of my seed.
Sighing, I tried to get a grip on my thoughts. I took a washcloth from a shelf and ran it lightly under warm water. When I returned to the bed, Finley was curled up on her side, watching me with a dreamy expression that put a smile on my face.
“Now, I could get used to seeing this sight every fucking day,” I said with a smirk.
“A limp noodle in your bed?” she teased.
“Nope,” I replied as I gently pushed her onto her back and cleaned between her legs. “You, naked, in our bed,” I explained. When I glanced at her face, she gazed at me with such happiness that it squeezed my heart, and I knew without a doubt that I was already head over heels for her.

FINLEY
When I woke up the following morning, I felt where Rhodes had been the night before. But I had zero regrets over giving him my virginity. Not even with how fast things had moved between us. When you found the right man, it was sensible to make the timing fit. Or at least that was my story, and I was sticking to it.
I let out a soft moan as I snuggled in his embrace, and his arms tightened around me. His beard scraped the sensitive skin on my neck as he murmured, “You feeling okay, baby? I should’ve run you a bath last night. It would’ve eased the aches.”
“I’m good.” I rolled in his embrace and smiled at him. “Just a tiny bit sore.”
He pressed his lips in a flat line. “I hate that I hurt you.”
“It couldn’t be helped, and you more than made up for it with all of the orgasms you gave me.”
Stroking his palm down my spine, he cupped my butt with his large hand. “I love hearing you scream my name as much as I do knowing that I’m the only man who’s ever gotten to see you like that. Or felt your sweet pussy gripping his cock.”
My cheeks filled with heat, and I buried my face in his chest with a groan. “You can’t talk like that, or else I’ll be tempted to do something my body isn’t quite ready for again yet.”
“We can’t have that.” He brushed his lips against mine. “I guess it’s a good thing my teammates will be here soon. It’ll help me keep my hands off you.”
“Your teammates?” I echoed, wiggling out of his hold to sit up. Pressing the sheet against my chest, I gaped down at him. “What do you mean, soon?”
“Don’t worry, baby. They won’t be here for another hour. Plenty of time for us to get up, shower, and get dressed.” He tugged on the sheet until it pooled at my waist. “It’ll be a damn shame to cover these perfect tits, but no way in hell does anyone get to see them but me.”
“Okay, but I shouldn’t even be here when they arrive,” I pointed out. “If your teammates know about us, Lennox might find out.”
His brows drew together, and his hand slid to grip my hip. “I don’t like keeping us a secret. You’re mine, and I want everyone to know it.”
“Only for a little while longer.” I pressed my fingers against his forehead, soothing the wrinkle that had popped up in the middle. “After you win the big game and get another championship ring.”
“I get your reasoning, but it doesn’t sit well with me.” He brushed his thumb over my ring finger on my left hand, and butterflies swirled in my belly. “I want to shout it from the fucking rooftop that you’re mine, Finley.”
“I want that, too,” I reassured him. “What I don’t want is to mess up your chance to make it to the big game because of some unnecessary drama with my uncle.”
“Never thought I’d say this, but I’ve won the championship already. I could handle never making it to the big game again if that’s what it took to have you in my life.”
There was no missing the sincerity shining from his dark eyes, and my breath caught in my throat at the weightiness of his words. “You have no idea how much I appreciate you saying that, but you deserve both—another championship ring and me. I’m not going anywhere, so you don’t have to worry about that. And your teammates shouldn’t have to pay the price for us being together. They need you to be on your game if the Nighthawks are going to win.”
“Damn, I hate that you have a point.”
Flopping down against the mattress, I scooted closer and twined my arms around his neck. “I’m sorry.”
“It’s a damn good thing there are only a few more weeks until we win the championship, and I can claim my real prize…you,” he grumbled.
I hated making Rhodes feel as though he was a secret I was keeping, but I loved how easily he talked about our future together. “Although we haven’t gone public with our relationship yet, I hope you don’t have any doubts about me being yours.”
“Not even a little bit.” He brushed his lips against mine. “Which is why I made it clear last night before I popped your cherry—there’s no going back.”
