I startle and raise my chin to him as he stalks closer. “This isn’t like hockey, you can’t beat people up like that!”

He scoffs. “What the hell are you talking about?”

“I’ve seen your games, you love throwing punches! Before you were captain, you spent half your time in the penalty box for slugging it out with the other team. I’m not an excuse to fight.”

He stabs his finger into his chest. “I’m an enforcer. That’s my job. It’s my job to protect my team on or off the ice.”

“Exactly! I’m not one of your teammates! I’m?—”

“I’m protecting you because I care about you, Jordan!” He scrubs a hand down his face. “Fuck!”

He walks away but turns on his heel until he’s right in front of me. His still bleeding hands are shoved into my hair, then he crushes his lips to mine, walking me backward. “I’m sorry if I scared you, but the thought of him getting close toyou terrifies me. I need to know you’re safe.”

The only thing that scares me is Cam getting injured. I wish things could be different between us. Why did I have to be engaged to such a monster? Why couldn’t it have been us the whole time?Why can’t I have him?He tugs at my pants, and I pull my shirt over my head, then unzip his fly, and grass and dirt stain the knees of his jeans.

His hand dives between my legs, and he groans. I’m so needy for him. He swipes his tongue over mine, shoves my back against the wall, and kisses me like I’ve never been kissed before.

I’m a feminist until the day I die. I’ve never wanted to play the part of a weak, helpless woman. I’m no damsel in distress. But seeing his torn-up knuckles and thinking about the way he protected me today has turned me into a puddle.

He presses himself against my entrance before plunging deep. I gasp as his piercings rub my inner walls just right.

“You know that rush when I first push inside you?”

I nod as he thrusts.It’s my favorite.

“Thatis worth fighting for. It’s worth bloody knuckles. I will never make you feel the way he did. I will never try to control you or own you. But when my cock is inside you... I can’t help but feel like you’re mine.”

Instant butterflies. I wrap my arms around his neck and bring him close as I swallow down emotion. His gaze brims with the most affectionate possession. When his fingers press into my sides and he works me up and down his length—he’s not fucking me, he’s worshipping me.At this moment, I want to be his more than anything.

He pumps inside me, and I can barely hold myself together. I squeeze my eyes shut, feeling the prick of tears.

“You’re shaking,” he whispers.

I’m unsure how to respond, so I don’t.He kisses my neck and works his way back to my lips again without once missing his rhythm. Every thrust is ecstasy. I love the way he makes me feel.

“Wrap your legs around me.” I lock my ankles behind his back, and he carries me to his bedroom.

Laying me down, he pulls out, kisses up my stomach, then unhooks and chucks my lace bra across the room. His forehead presses to mine while he sinks inside me. My mouth drops open, and the sounds of our bodies moving together is snuffed out. My world goes silent when his eyes bore into mine. Every second pushes me closer to the finish line, and my muscles pull taut.

“I’m going to come.”

“I know, Sunshine, me too.”

His hand slides up my neck, into my tresses, and his tongue skates across my lower lip. I sigh into his mouth. A hand snakes between us, and the way he’s rubbing my clit, his fingers don’t seem to be slowed by the injury to his hand.

“That’s it, baby. Let me have you. Cry for me.”

And I do. For the next ten seconds, I surrender to him. Emotionally, physically, spiritually. It’s the most intense orgasm I’ve ever had, it’s enough to make me jackknife. He pushes me back down on the bed and wraps his hand around my neck. The exchange of power is filled with raw vulnerability. I willingly hand over what Bryan always took without asking. I trust Camden. Irrevocably.

His eyes darken as he holds me still while driving in and out. A smile forms on my lips as I focus on the sensation. He growls and thrusts hard, emptying himself and pressing his chest against mine. Our bare skin touching sends shivers down my spine.This is us.

My arms fall to my sides when I let go of his shoulders—and the emotional tether between us. I’m exhausted after releasing all the stress from Bryan’s unwelcome visit.

Slowly pulling out, wet and warm, he leaks out of me. He spreads my legs, admiring his handiwork. “Mm.” He pushes his thumb inside me and grabs a tissue to wipe away the excess.Damn.

“You wear my cum beautifully.”

He lifts the comforter and slides me underneath, climbing behind and wrapping his arms around my stomach, hauling my back to his chest. Thick, cotton sheets cradle us. His lips find my favorite spot between my neck and shoulder, and he rests them there, licking the small sensitive area. He knows exactly what I like.
