Tackled by the King: A Bad Boy Sports Romance (19 page)

“It's okay, King. I invited her.”

I jerked my head over my shoulder. Ivanka closed the bathroom door behind her. She looked past me, motioning for Carrie to shut the front door. Carrie slid into the foyer, complying.

“What's going on over here?”

“Carrie is very, very sorry,” said Ivanka softly, ambling towards us. “Aren't you, Carrie?”

“Yes,” said Carrie hoarsely, bowing her head. She kept her eyes on the floor as she shrugged off her blazer. “I'm so, so sorry, Kingsley. I've been such a naughty girl.”

“And she's going to make it up to us. Isn't that true, Carrie?”

“Yes, Kingsley,” said Carrie flatly. She stripped off her pants and pulled her black tank over her head. “I'll do anything to make it up to you.”

I was frozen in place, hypnotized with confusion and the sight of Carrie's body. Her tits jumped out of her shirt, slightly weighed down by beautiful gravity. Ivanka cozied up next to her. Their bodies were so different, from the contrast in their white-gold and ink-black hair to their curves and the size of their tits. That said, every distinct feature and every womanly curve of their bodies looked nothing short of perfect side by side.

Ivanka crouched down and eased Carrie's pink cotton panties down her legs. She skimmed her fingers across the small dark patch above Carrie's legs, petting her cunt. As Carrie's breathing quickened, Ivanka slid 2 fingers across her slit, inspecting her moisture.

“Carrie is right. She must be feeling very, very apologetic indeed.” Ivanka taunted her, rising to her feet. She spaced her sticky fingers apart, dangling them in front of Carrie's nose.

Carrie parted her lips obediently. Ivanka stuffed her fingers into Carrie's mouth, swabbing the insides of Carrie's cheeks with her own juices. Ivanka caught Carrie's tit with her free hand, rubbing the fat bud of her nipple in circles. Carrie whimpered, clasping Ivanka's wrist with both hands as she flicked her tongue desperately at Ivanka's probing fingers.

I cupped the bulge in my crotch and began stroking myself. All the thoughts in my head had shut down at this point. None of it was making any sense, but there was no way in hell that I was going to put a stop to this.

Ivanka hooked her finger over Carrie's teeth and led her towards the sofa. She positioned herself on the edge of the sofa, spreading her legs to their fullest extent. Carrie dropped to the ground, crawling between Ivanka's legs. Her fingers dimpled into Ivanka's gleaming thighs as she leaned forward, planting a kiss on her clit. Carrie stuck out her tongue, pushing the tip against Ivanka's clit as she gazed up for approval.

The head of my cock was awake and poking out the waistline of my sweats, itching to participate. I watched as Ivanka leaned over, meeting Carrie halfway, holding her hair on the other side of my neck to grant me a better view. I chewed on my lip as theirs connected. Their tongues collided in a frenzy of passion and hatred for one another. They gripped onto each other's faces, their wet, sucking kisses growing wilder by the second. It was almost as if they were competing with each other for my attention.

Ivanka forced Carrie off her, knocking her back to the ground. She grinned at Carrie, her mouth and chin coated with her spit. Carrie accepted her fate, burrowing her face between Ivanka's thighs. She rested her weight on the flat of her hands, stuck her ass in midair, and started eating Ivanka's cunt. Ivanka snickered viciously, reaching between Carrie's legs to prize the lips apart for easier access.

“What are you waiting for, King? Carrie's waiting for you to punish her good...”

I pulled off my sweats and licked my palm, revving up my cock as I made my way towards them. Carrie's round, generous ass cheeks trembled with her body. As I hovered over her, I choked my cock with steady strokes with my eyes boring into her wet mound. She was so immersed with what she was doing, she didn't seem to realize I was behind her.

Reaching forward, I squeezed Carrie's left cheek and pulled it back. She twisted her head over her shoulder, her breath strangled in her throat. The bottom half of Carrie's face and the snub point of her nose was thick with Ivanka's fluids. She watched as I piloted the head of my cock between her soaking slit. I drove my cock in as slowly as I could, studying her lips as they stretched rounder the deeper I went.

Ivanka clutched Carrie's chin, forcing her face back between her legs. Carrie thrust her face back in position, continuing where she'd left off as I pumped faster into her. Carrie was especially tight at this angle, and watching her as she stuck her tongue in and out of Ivanka's folds was fucking surreal. As I rammed in and out of Carrie's clenching cunt, I pulled her hair out of her face to make it easier for her to please Ivanka.

Ivanka seemed to be enjoying herself just as much as I was, if not even more. She kept herself upright with one straight arm and fiddled with her nipple with the other. Her husky laughter and deep, sensual moans filled my living room.

My eyelids fell shut for just a few seconds. I deepened the fingers on Carrie's hips, my thumb inching closer to her stretching asshole. But when my eyes peeled back, ready to blow, my breath jammed in my throat.

“Yo – what – what the fuck?”

Just a hair away from my nose was the flashing tip of a flat, rectangular blade. Ivanka cocked her head to the side, wiggling her fingers from behind the grip of the meat cleaver. I recognized the blue handle – it had come right from my kitchen. Carrie surfaced from Ivanka's legs, crawling off to the side.

“Surprised?” Ivanka purred, winking at me.

A few strands of her hair fell free from her behind her shoulders to frame her face. And with the way the light of the lamp was hitting her head, she looked like a goddamned angel. All the hair on my body stood, on guard.

“What the fuck is going on –”

“I saw the way you were looking at that bitch when you were fucking her,” Ivanka growled. She scrunched her lips and jabbed them to the right, indicating Carrie. “Tell me, did it feel good to have your balls knocking against her pretty pussy?”

“Are you fucking crazy?” I backed away from her slowly, but Ivanka only leaned closer to me. “You were the one that called her –”

“Just tell me one thing, King.”

“Hey, back the fuck off –”

“Was it worth it?”

“What?”

Ivanka wielded the cleaver over her head, her demented smile so unnaturally wide the corners were cracking and oozing red...

I jolted up in my bed, my eyes snapping open. My head was throbbing and my ears ringing like I'd just been the brunt of a 6-man pileup. Behind me, there was a sweat outline of my body on the pillows and sheets.

“
Don't stop, Renee. Yeah, just like that. Suck that clit like you mean it, baby –
”

I tapped on the space bar and “Escape” button on my laptop, which was sitting on the empty side of the bed. The scene of the hot blonde and brunette sharing a double-ended dildo vanished from the screen. I slammed my laptop shut and fell back on my pillow, shaking my head.

“The fuck was that?”

Chapter Twenty-Five:
Kingsley

I sunk down in my armchair, surveying Coach's office. I'd been in and out of this place a couple of times, mostly to get my ass chewed out during one of Coach's hour-long sermons, but I'd never really taken the time to get a good look at the place. For dealing with a bunch of sloppy, sweaty men on a daily basis, Coach was pretty anal about keeping things clean around here.

Team pictures, flags, and some of the more limited edition memorabilia were hung up on his walls. The frames and display glasses were wiped spotless. Black and brown leather armchairs and sofas furnished the office, not one piece of furniture out of line. On top of his desk was clear tempered glass that weighed down the hand-drawn pictures and letters from his kids. Another set of photo frames of his family and old friends were set up on his desk. There were dozens of pictures in this place, but not one of them was of Coach himself. In one corner sat an antique but working phonograph and cabinet with his record collection. And finally, right next to that was a wooden liquor cabinet brimming with expensive bottles of wine and brandy.

I was staring at the red blob his 3-year-old drew him, trying to figure out what it was, when the door behind me opened.

“I ever tell you kids about one of my homeboys, Pookie?”

Coach hung up his whistle behind the door. He took his seat across me and set his cap on the table, running a hand through his short, coarse hair. I shifted in my seat and shook my head quietly.

“Pookie was one bad motherfucker.” Coach wheeled his chair over to the liquor stand, fixing himself a smooth glass of Pyrat. “Want a drink?”

“No, thanks, Coach.”
“Suit yourself.” Coach drank from his glass and wheeled himself back to his desk. He lowered his drink on the table, smacking his lips. “Ah, that's smooth. Now, let's get back to Pookie. We were tight, and I mean, the 2 of us were inseparable back then. Played basketball and football together at the community center, then out on the streets when the community center burned down. That's him, right there.”

Coach flipped one of the frames on his desk over so I could see it. I leaned in, squinting to get a closer look at the shit quality of the photograph. Coach pointed out the kid on the far right of the group picture. He looked to be in his early 20s, looking fresh to death in a green Fubu tracksuit, a platinum chain, and a bucket hat with the brim so low you could hardly see his eyes.

“Cool.” I didn't know what else to say.

“Pookie was the coolest guy around. Everyone respected him and the ladies couldn't get enough of him. He thought he was invincible, and I did, too. I wanted to be just like him.” Coach put the frame back in its place and folded his fingers on his desk. “I graduated with a Sports Management degree, but Pookie never made it past the 10
^th
grade. When Pookie was 18, he got a girl pregnant. Started living with his baby mama and kid, working a full-time job and slinging on the side to support them.”

I rested an arm on my armrest and started picking at a piece of flaky skin on my lip. Yeah, I knew what this was. Coach was doing that thing where he incorporated a life lesson into his pep talks.

“Sold whatever his suppliers could get their hands on – weed, meth, coke, pills, you name it,” Coach continued. “When I graduated, my sister came down with tuberculosis. Ashanti beat it, and she's fine now, but back then, it destroyed us all. My parents were broke, and I was fresh out of college. Nobody was hiring, so I was unemployed. Pookie was the only one I could count on – he offered me a run, a big one.”

Coach took another drink from his glass, gazing wistfully at the frame on his desk.

“All I had to do was deliver the product to a room at the Moonbeam Motel, collect the 30 grand, and make off with my cut of 2 grand.” He leaned back in his chair, sighing sadly. “Got busted 5 minutes into the deal by a room full of undercover cops. They caught me red-handed. Bags, scales, change – it was all there. They would have let me off with a couple hours of community service if I gave Pookie up, but I couldn't. That was my boy, and he was the only one providing for his family. I did 2 and a half years before I got out on good behavior.”

“That's rough, Coach.” I swallowed uneasily. “Where's Pookie now?”

“Pookie, his wife, and his kid were shot in a drive-by 3 months into my sentence.” Coach's eyes welled up for a moment. He looked away with pink eyes, blinking furiously as he cleared his throat.

“Sorry, Coach.”

“You know, you've got this gift of slipping through the cracks. I don't know how you do it, but you best be counting those lucky stars of yours,” said Coach grimly. His thick gray brows met in the middle of his wrinkled forehead. “You're extremely fortunate the story's been nothing more than just hearsay and speculation – no one's been bold enough to claim evidence yet. You best hope the situation doesn't escalate.”

“Understood, Coach.” I had to sit on one of my hands to keep myself from looking fidgety and suspicious.

Coach tugged on the small braid at the end of his beard, his gaze getting more intense.

“Now, I'm going to ask you this just this once, and you better not lie to me, boy. How much of what's being said out there is true?”

What Odell said to me in the alley behind the Twin Acres bar intersected with my thoughts. He hadn't spoken to me since we made that pact. And as I looked back at the hopeful light in Coach's tired eyes, I knew the man couldn't afford another disappointment. I wiped my damp hands on the sides of my pants and looked back at him, doing my best not to blink and keep my tone measured.

“None of it, Coach.”

Coach studied me for a few seconds before nodding brusquely.

“Now, normally your ass would have been suspended for all of this nonsense. Gunther isn't happy about any of this, and he was about to follow through until Ivanka coaxed him out of it. I don't know why, but I wouldn't be asking too many questions if I were you. That's another ass you'll need to keep kissing. And you better stay extra vigilant – the press will be watching your every move.”

“Understood.”
