All Chapters of Secret Marriage To My Brother's Best friend : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

When the hell did I get so sappy?I go to put the marker away and open a closet in the office, surveying the pile of folded jerseys. They all have my name on them, and I keep them for friends and family that need one. Slipping one out, I check the size and carry it to the couch.“Sorry, buddy.” I whisper an apology to Andrew as I fold his and place my jersey on top of the pile. Delilah might never wear it out of loyalty to her brother, but I really want her to have it. It’s something to remember me by.I wanted to come home to laughter and activity, but that isn’t the life of an NHL player most of the time. I secure the locks on the doors and windows and set the alarm from my phone before heading to my bedroom.It’s difficult to fall asleep even after a crazy night and food, so I toss and turn. This adrenaline never goes away, and it still feels like my first pro game every time I get out on the ice. Seeing my family there is always great, but Lola’s smile and Delilah’s happiness is s

“He gave her a puck. I think every kid near us wanted to steal it. I thought they showed that.”“I just had it on for a bit. You know I am not the one to watch replays and all of that. I have just seen the kids and players over the years and it’s sweet.”“It is. Someday my brother is going to be the guy with a kid and it’s going to do me and Mom in.”We talk for a few more minutes before she needs to go to bed, and I snuggle under the covers in my bed. I’m still completely aroused and slip my hand between my legs to get some relief.Should I hook up with another player? Andrew would be annoyed but I could do it. Maybe another guy in general?“Oh, God,” I whisper, stroking my clit.I am crazy with need and realize this is happening more often. I need to have sex with someone, but for now, here I am. I keep going until my release washes over me, closing my eyes as I rock into my hand.I relax for a second and then hear a sound by my door. Glancing at the screen on the monitor, I can see

Andrew steps forward to hug Delilah and I instantly notice the soft green dress that clings to her curves.“Hey. I’m glad you came over.”Her eyes say otherwise as Delilah briefly lets her gaze pass over me.“Lola-bean. What are you up to?”Andrew walks over to kiss my daughter’s head, and she looks up from her pile of plastic food.“Bean!”She holds out a pea pod, and we all laugh, although I force mine.“Close counts for something, right?”Delilah checks the crock pot and stirs gently. She’s focusing way too much on the task and it’s obvious how much effort she’s making not to look at me. I glance at Andrew and he’s talking to Lola, and I hope he doesn’t notice this.“That is a pea, Lola. Not a bean.”Andrew boops her nose, making my daughter giggle in that free way I often envy. I offer to help Delilah, but she quickly assures me she’s fine if I can watch Lola for a bit. There’s still no eye contact and I sit on the couch near my daughter, looking at her vast pile of fake food. She

“It was incredible, Delilah. I’ve never wanted someone so badly and finally having you was… it differed from anything before you. Why do you have to be my nanny?”“Why do you have to be Andrew’s best friend?”We’re silent for a moment before he leans in to kiss me.“My daughter adores you.”His voice is a whisper and I smile.“I adore her right back.”“I can’t let this hurt her, Delilah. It’s just that I don’t think I can stay away from you. Not yet. I can’t let your brother find out, either. It’s so complicated.”“We’re alone right now. Let’s just enjoy this moment.”Miles gets a washcloth to clean me up, wetting it with warm water. When he’s beside me again, I reach out to touch his muscular chest.“Thanks for the jersey. Did I already say that?”“I want you to wear my name. You’d be the only woman out there wearing it that knows me.”“Do I know you?” My voice is soft, and Miles looks at me.“Better than most. I’m around you a lot, and it’s tough to keep things buried when I’m with

“He isn’t here with us. Nobody picked up on anything at the game tonight or dinner. You always look over at Lola.”“I think I did it a little more tonight, and it wasn’t always for her. It was you, and your laugh and that smile. Do you know how much that makes me want you?”I stroke her damp skin and watch as she looks at me. This is dangerous and we both know it. If we stop now, maybe we can recover from it. If we keep going, we’re going to get caught.Our families know each other and are together a lot, including her brother. Andrew isn’t stupid, and he’ll pick up on something eventually because he knows me so well. I don’t date and the obvious guess would be his sister.Then I’d lose a great friend and fuck up my team. I can’t let that happen.“We need to cut this off now, Delilah. So many bad things can happen if we continue.”I hate saying the words, but we both know it’s true. She’d pay for this as much as I would.“That’s what you want, Miles?”No. I want to be with her every s
