Page 39 of On Her Team
I catch her wrist before she has a chance to rush past me. “What’s your hurry? Do you not want me to see your family?”
“Trust me. You do not want to go in there. We had spaghetti for dinner and let’s just say the kitchen now resembles a crime scene.”
I chuckle. “A crime scene?”
“Otis called Mila a baby. Mila threw spaghetti at him. Things deteriorated from there.”
“Your family is fun.”
“Says the man who won’t be cleaning spaghetti sauce off the ceiling tomorrow morning.”
“I can clean spaghetti sauce. As instructed, I’m wearing clothes that can be ruined.”
She rakes her gaze over my body and her brow wrinkles. “Are you wearing pajamas?” She leans closer. “With little penises all over them?”
“Nolan got them for the entire offensive line as a Christmas present last year.”
“Because you’re all dicks?”
I bark out a laugh. “That’s exactly what he said.”
She rolls her eyes. “At least they’re black.” I open the passenger door for her and wait for her to get settled. “A football player who’s a gentleman. I didn’t know those existed.”
I kiss her nose. “I’m only a gentleman for you, songbird.”
She shivers and I shut the door before she notices my smirk. My little songbird is as affected by me as I am by her. I adjust my hardening cock. Maybe not as much.
“Where to?” I ask once I’m backing out of the driveway.
“Drive toward Rogue’s Landing.”
“What’s in Rogue’s Landing?”
“You’ll see.”
“You’re certain this – whatever this is – isn’t illegal? I hate getting arrested in pajamas.”
She giggles. “Then, you shouldn’t have worn pajamas with little penises all over them.”
“Shit. This is illegal. I should contact my agent.”
She slaps my hand when I reach for my phone. “It’s not illegal in Smuggler’s Hideaway.”
My brow narrows. “But it would be illegal in other places?”
She shrugs. “Other places don’t have raccoons to steal.”
My mouth gapes open. “Raccoons to steal?”
She points to the road. “Watch where you’re driving. You don’t want to accidentally run over Sammy.”
“Sammy?”
“The seal.”
“Are you saying there’s a seal named Sammy living on Smuggler’s Hideaway?”
“Yep. And he enjoys sunbathing in the middle of the road.”
