He brought a hand up, cupping her face, and rubbed his thumb over the apple of her cheek. “I was just thinking, if this had happened with anyone but you, I’d probably lose my fucking mind. We hear so many horror stories of women trying to trap athletes by getting pregnant.”

“I would never intentionally do something to hurt you.”

“I know you wouldn’t. I’ve never met a more honest and open person. You wear your feelings like a second skin.” He brushed her cheek again. “I trust you, Ivy.”

Touched, she swallowed down a lump of emotion. “So, we’re good?”

“Yeah, we’re good.”

Needing to lighten the mood, she threw him a sly smile. “Does that mean we can ditch the condoms from now on?”

His lips quirked into a small smirk. “I’m game if you are.”

“I’m totally game.”

“Good.” He hiked his jeans over his hips, then scooped her up.

She threw her arms around his neck. “Where are we going?”

“Bed. Fucking you without a condom is something I want to experience again.”

“Have you ever done it without one before?”

“Nope.”

She thought about that revelation as they made their way up the stairs and kept thinking about it as he walked them across the bedroom and laid her on the bed. But those thoughts came to a halt when Colt stripped and joined her. Then other things demanded her attention.

Like Colt’s lips.

His hands.

His cock.

And how amazing it felt having sex without a condom.

“Wake up, beautiful.”

Ivy was awake but hadn’t wanted to emerge from the warm blankets to face the day. It was much more enjoyable thinking about the night before. Especially the part when she paid on their bet and the look on Colt’s face as she did. After she had finished, Ivy wasn’t sure who’d been more turned on, but it wasdefinitelyshe who reapedallthe benefits.

But now, the aroma of coffee had her opening her eyes. Colt stood at the side of the bed in workout clothes, hair wet, holding a to-go cup aloft.

She stretched her arms over her head. “What time is it?”

“A little after nine.”

She sat up and reached for the cup. She got a whiff of vanilla and excitedly took a tentative sip to test the heat level before taking a larger one. Nectar from the gods.

“You’re up and about early.”

“I wanted to get a workout in before you got up. I have plans for us today.”

That got her intrigued. “Oh yeah? Like what?”

“I’m going to teach you the fundamentals and rules of football.”

Okay, less intriguing. “Oh… Fun.”

He sat on the bed by her feet and hugged her legs over the covers. “I’m going to teach you about going deep, how to get good penetration, taking it up the middle, scores, and completions.”
