Page 33 of Personal Foul

Knowing nothing about baseball, she surprised herself by being riveted to the game. It was one thing seeing sports on television, but something else entirely seeing it live. They weredirectly behind home plate and she asked a lot of questions, to which Kaiden patiently answered. She noticed a lot of people looking at them, turning to take pictures or just point. A few people waved so she waved back, not knowing what else to do. Even a few of the baseball players gave them a friendly nod.

Paul went to get them snacks and drinks. It was the first time she ate a St. Louis style beef brisket BBQ with chips, and loved it, polishing off the entire sandwich. Kaiden shared his beer with her since she didn’t want a whole one.

At the bottom of the ninth inning, the Cardinals pulled ahead and won the game and the stadium started to empty. She figured they would stay there until the crowds thinned, but to her surprise, Crew beckoned them to follow him. Kaiden held her hand as he guided her behind him, into the deeper bowels of the stadium.

The men talked about plays and statistics, both baseball and football, and she let it wash over her. It was like hearing them speak Latin. Many people rushed through the hallways, waving and greeting them. They entered a large open locker room where a lot of the players were half-dressed or nearly naked. She slapped a hand over her eyes, much to the amusement of the men. Only peeking when they assured her nothing was dangling.

After a few minutes, with handshakes and selfies complete, they left the locker room. Once more, Kaiden held her hand as they exited the stadium.

“What are you cool cats up to this evening?” Crew asked.

“No plans,” Kaiden replied.

“We’re going to a nightclub named Creation. Wanna tag along?”

Kaiden stiffened next to her and she tightened her grip around his hand.

“That’s what got me into trouble,” he admitted.

Crew nodded like he understood. “What better way to show you’re not the drunken asshole that got fired and sent off as a misfit, then to go to a nightclub and dance your ass off? Just don’t get drunk.”

Kaiden snorted and looked down at her. “What do you think?”

“I think he’s right,” she replied. “You’re not an alcoholic. You’re not a troublemaker. You just had some bad press at a bad time in your life. I think this would be an excellent message to counteract all that.”

Crew held out his fist to her, and she blinked before bumping it with hers. Kaiden looked at her with a soft gaze and leaned over to kiss her temple.

When they arrived at Creation later that night, they were immediately ushered in past the waiting line. Several people shouted it was bullshit they got special privilege, and it was an eye-opener how people bowed to Crew and Kaiden. One of the bouncers escorted them to the VIP lounge and Romilly sank onto the love seat next to him. Crew had brought a date, but the woman wasn’t exactly friendly. She seemed more concerned how she looked next to Crew, so Romilly let the woman have the spotlight when people came up to have selfies taken with the two football players or to get their autographs.

The music was a bit too loud to talk. Kaiden brought her out on the dance floor and they stayed wrapped up with each other for hours. When she needed to go to the bathroom, he escorted her. All they had to drink was water or soda.

During the slow songs, Kaiden would cup her face and kiss her passionately. It felt like they were in their own little world. Around midnight Crew and his date drove them home. Kaiden’s phone kept buzzing and he was answering back with afrown on his face.

As soon as they stepped into the apartment, he spun her around and pushed her against the door. Fire blazed in his eyes, singeing her with their intensity. All of it focused on her. Heat surged through her, creating need. Desire. Making her heart pound, and shallowing her breath. Fingertips danced over her cheek to cup her jaw, tilting her head right before his kiss sent the world spinning. His lips were soft, like kissing velvet or silk. It started gentle and then, in an instant, turned fierce. He plunged his tongue into her mouth as he pinned her hands above her head. Claiming her in the most primitive way.

Unable to keep still, she bucked against him, pushing her pelvis against his. His hand drifted down her neck, where it stopped just under her breast. Time stopped, her heartbeat the only sound she heard. Switching both of her wrists to one of his hands, it allowed him to explore her body. Cupping one breast, he lightly grazed his thumb over the turgid peak. Then, through the rapturous haze, it took a moment to realize he let go of her arms.

“Don’t move,” he ordered.

He squatted down to remove her shoes and socks. He pulled her pants and panties down, and then helped her out of them. Delicious shivers. The rhythm of her heart fluttered. That was what he did to her. Glancing up at her, with that one simple look, she knew instinctively he was hers and she was his. And that power terrified her.

With her half-dressed, he parted her thighs and buried his face in her pussy. Her head thumped back on the door when he licked her slit. His whiskers tickled the inside of her thighs, teasing the skin with feathery kisses. Licking her slit, dipping into her wetness, sent stars over her vision. He flicked his tongue over her clit, the throbbing little bud pulsing with lust. Kissing, sucking, touching her pussy like it was precious. Madejust for him. It wasn’t long before his touches drove her over the edge. Waves crested, and sent her flying through the heavens. She shook and moaned his name as the intense orgasm ripped through her.

As she came down from the high, he stood and practically tore off the rest of her clothing. Quickly doing the same to his own. Lifting her up, his fingers dug into the fleshy globes of her ass. Poised to plunge inside, he hesitated for a moment, his cock resting at her soaking-wet entrance.

“Condom?”

“I … it should be safe. I’m not ovulating.”

He gave an imperceptible nod. “I’m clean. Got tested when I got here as a health screening for the team.”

“I’m clean too.”

The words hadn’t left her mouth before sinking inside her with one swift thrust. He groaned, leaving his forehead against hers.

“Holy shit, I never realized how amazing this could feel,” he murmured. “I’ve never been bare before.”
