Chapter Ten

Adler

I turned to look at Layton, thinking that maybe I’d toss out something glib about more coffee and see if he’d actually-maybe-possibly go with me for a real coffee. Hell, maybe I could sweet-talk him into saying it was a date. He’d been receptive to my touches during the presser. If I was lucky, I might be able to sneak in another kiss. Talk about something my taste buds would enjoy. I bet he tasted fantastic. A sexy combination of man and coffee beans…

He leaned in a bit, his chest lightly brushing mine. My breath hitched as his cologne and the feel of his lean, hard body mingled. His gaze darted from my mouth to the two doors leading out of the press room. My focus was wholly on Layton, because holy shit he was sending out vibes that my cock was receiving loud and clear.

He wet his lips, a nervous habit that turned me right on. A group of loud males walked past the door to our left. A bit of the fire in those pewter depths disappeared.

“Can I talk to you in my office?”

“Yeah, sure.”

I followed him, trying to figure out what I’d done wrong. It must have been something. Why else would he want to see me alone? Shit. Had my mouth engaged without me knowing it? We rounded a corner, my longer legs pushing to keep up with Layton’s hurried pace. Dammit. I must have really hosed something up. That look I thought was desire must have been anger.

“Lockhart, you knuckle-dragging hoser,” Brady Rowe shouted when he spied us coming. He’d been talking with a small group of Railers. Layton skidded to a stop in front of me. I walked up to stand at his side. He was unreadable now.

“Rowe.” I slapped my hand into Brady’s. He was a big guy, like me, and one hell of a defenseman. “How go things in Bean Town?”

“I can’t complain. I was shocked to read you’d been traded.” He gave Layton a polite nod of the head.

“Such is life in the salary cap era. It’s their loss. I’m enjoying things here. You meet Layton Foxx yet? He’s the Railers social media troubleshooting guru. He was the one that set this whole press thing up.”

I peeked at Layton as I spoke to Brady. He looked uncertain trapped between two hulking hockey players. Not the first time I’d seen his discomfort. Why was the man so skittish? It worried me to see reserve on his handsome face. I wanted to see him only smiling. I’d work on that.

“Ten speaks highly of you, Layton.” Brady shoved his big mitt at Layton, who grabbed it and gave it a quick shake, then released it. Yeah, the man was really looking hemmed in. That concerned me for reasons I didn’t dare to explore right now.

“I noticed that you and Baby Brother are starting to click on ice.” Brady folded his arms over that big old Boston emblem he so proudly wore.

“Ten is an amazing center.
