“I’m not comfortable with sneaking around, Felicity. Because that’s what you’re asking me to do if we spend time together, which is what I want.” I grunt in irritation.

“I want to spend time with you too. So much. I’ve been really miserable since I left you in that room. You have no idea how many times I’ve wished to be able to go back and do it all again. Leave you a note or even be brave enough to wake you.” She moans and the sound does things to my body that I don’t think she’s ready for. “I’d spend all my time with you if I could.” She sighs. “Please…say something.”

Cupping the back of her neck with an unsteady hand, I use the other to gently caress along one side of her face. “I’m thinking that I’d do just about anything if it means that I get to spend time with you.” My lips are just shy of brushing against hers as I repeat, “Anything,” before giving in to temptation and softly caressing her pink lips with mine.

The feel of her hands on my skin as they slip under my shirt has my body tightening with desire. She has no clue what she does to me and that, combined with it being Felicity, turns me on all the more.

I break from the kiss, panting and trying to remember where we are, but as her hands slip around to my back and dip slowly into the back of my slacks, I reclaim her lips. I move my mouth, hard and demanding, devouring her softness, wanting so much more from this beautiful woman in my arms.

Growling in the back of my throat, I drag her into my arms and grasping her bottom with my hands, I haul her completely against me, pushing her into the door with my hips.

She isn’t still, and rocks against my dick while I’m unable to stop kissing her. Our mouths fit together as though we were made for each other, and the feel of finally having her in my arms is bringing me to my knees. My body screams for me to shove my hands into her panties and rip them from her body so that I can feel her, wet and tight around me.

But then, the banging on the door interrupts us. I want to ignore it, but hearing Andie’s, “Kasey,” whispered angrily through the door makes me see reason. So with regret, I pull my mouth from hers, and gaze into her eyes. I smile and brush a gentle kiss across her forehead before helping her regain her balance.

“Give us a minute,” I answer Andie, but I can’t seem to stop touching Felicity.

“I hope,” I breathe against her lips, “that you don’t expect me to apologize for that, because it was the most intense kiss that I’ve ever shared with anyone.”

“You feel it too,” she whispers.

I chuckle. “I feel so much when I’m with you.”

“Kasey?” Andie hisses. “Dammit, get out of there.”

“I think we need to go,” I say, regret rushing through me. “Can I have your number?” I smile at how corny it sounds.

“Here.” She passes me her cell. “Put yours in there and then message yourself so we have each others.”

“I like the way you think.” Quickly doing what she asked, we exchange numbers, but I have to ask, “When can I see you again?”

“My brother’s shooting tomorrow morning for a calendar, so I could try and get away then.”

“Wait. What calendar?” I frown and wait her answer.

“It’s a sports thing.”

“NHL?” I curse and snatch the door open just as Andie is about to bang the thing again. I scowl at her.

“I’m sorry that I’m interrupting, but your teammate, who now has a sore foot thanks to my high heel, is looking for you. They’re about to start with instructions for tomorrow.”

“Shit.” I run my hands through my hair and stare at Felicity. I’m afraid to let her go in case I don’t see her again for another three months. “What’s your brother’s name? Which team?”

“Blake Kelly. Cleveland Flyers.”

Double shit!

I groan. “I know him…I’m Kasey De La Fuente of the New York Mavericks.”

She gasps and covers her mouth with her hands, her face falling. “Oh crap! He’s mentioned you as Fuente before. He hates playing when you’re on the ice. He says you’re unstoppable…When he finds out about us, he’ll go nuts.”

“Look”—I tug her into my arms before she can bolt—“I know where you’re coming from, okay? Your brother and I have never seen eye-to-eye on the ice, but you aren’t your brother, and I’ll be damned if I let the best thing to ever happen to me walk away. Are you hearing me, Felicity? I finally have you back, I’m not losing you again.”

Felicity looks to the ground for a moment before nodding to herself, as her determined eyes meet mine, I sigh in relief.

“You’re right. It was just a shock realizing that my brother knows you. We’re good, Kasey. I promise. But it means that you’ll be on set tomorrow as well.”

“Yeah,” I admit, wishing that I could just run away with her some place so that we can be ourselves.

“Come to my room later. I’ll head there now and message my brother that I’m going to bed. He’ll believe me because I was grumbling about being tired before he dragged me down here. He won’t come checking on me then.” She fumbles with her cell and then mine beeps with her room number.

I’m seriously going to hate sneaking around, but I didn’t lie when I said I’d do anything for her. “I’ll be there as soon as I can. Keep your cell close and I’ll message you when I’m outside your room so you don’t give yourself away to him.”

She nods, but looks about as happy as I am.

“Kasey, he’s coming. Please tell him to stay away from me and I’ll look after Felicity.” Andie looks away and then back to me. “Tell him that I have genital herpes or something,” she mutters.

Within seconds I’m shoved out of the door, and it slams closed with Andie and Felicity still inside.

“Where’s that gorgeous babe disappeared to?” Xavier asks, trying to look over my shoulder.

I roll my eyes and wrapping an arm around his shoulders repeat in a loud voice, “She’s probably gone getting that genital herpes seen to.”

He pales and moves with me back into the room, while I can’t wipe the smile from my face.

Not only will that teach Andie not to say shit like that to me again, but I’ll be seeing Felicity soon.
