~Excerpt ~
The last time I stood in victory
circle, Emmit had won his first NASCAR race and he had searched the crowd for
me. This time, he went straight to the camera and began talking as he took
small sips of something someone put in his hand. Robert reached over and
changed out Emmit’s baseball cap to another sponsor’s hat.
My lower stomach tightened as I
watched Emmit’s every move. His sweat-soaked hair peeking out from under the
baseball cap lit a fire in my body that I tried desperately to ignore.
Bastard.
I wanted to be angry with him, but I
couldn’t.
“He’s so damn good looking. What I
wouldn’t do to spend just one hour in his bed,” some girl behind me said.
Turning, I gave her a fake smile. “Tell me you don’t agree,” she said to me.
With a smirk, I said, “I’ve graced
his bed plenty of times.”
With a huge smile, she said, “Lucky
bitch.”
I rolled my eyes as I pushed all
thoughts of Emmit and my horny body away.
The freedom of not feeling the need
to have Emmit’s hands all over my body lasted for a whole minute. Once his gray
eyes found mind, I held onto my breath.
There was so much more to Emmit than
how he made my body feel during sex. One of my favorite things he ever did was
place his hand on my lower back as he guided me through a room. Or, to a table
for two in the corner of a romantic restaurant. Oh, yes … there was so much
more to him.
Giving me a smile, Emmit said
something else to the reporter and then nodded his head and turned to his team
as they continued to celebrate. Daddy had gone up and given Emmit a quick hug
and said something to him that caused Emmit to let out a laugh and agree with
whatever Daddy said.
Emmit took the champagne and shook
it up as he sprayed everyone. Security had allowed Ashley to go up to Emmit. He
pulled her into his arms and hugged her for a good thirty seconds before pulling
back and kissing the tip of her nose.
My heart dropped as I thought about
how much I wished that had been me. I started making my way through the crowd.
Glancing back over my shoulder, I watched as Emmit posed for pictures and
continued to celebrate his win. Turning back to the front, I wondered if he
would even notice I had left.
