“You too.” Luke nodded, but didn’t look in my manager’s direction.

“If you don’t mind, I thought maybe I could join you while you visit the kids.” He looked at me expectantly.

My eyes widened. “What? You want to do visits with me?”

He shrugged. “Why not? I’m sure there might be a Warrior fan or two in here.”

“Oh no.” Jake shook his head. “We have a tight schedule. We have a hospital photographer. I think we’ll have to coordinate something another time with the Warriors. This is not a joint event.”

I ignored his warnings and his stupid excuses. “I think the kids would love it.” I smiled at Luke. “I know for a fact there are Warrior fans here.”

He glared down at Jake. “You heard her. The kids will love it.” He towered over him, and Jake took a step back to get out of our way as we moved to the next room.

“I think you scared the shit out of him,” I whispered before we walked inside.

“Good.” He winked. “He’s an asshole.”

“True, but seriously what are you doing here? I thought we were meeting after I finished here.”

He ran his thumb across my lower lip and I couldn’t breathe. He held me with his stare. With his gaze. My hand was glued to the door, but I couldn’t move. I wanted to suck his thumb into my mouth. To hell with the fact we were in a public hallway.

“I couldn’t wait that long,” he responded with a sexy smirk.

I didn’t know what was right or what was wrong about him, but I knew then that somehow Luke Canton was going to turn my lif

e upside down, and it scared the absolute shit out of me.

I nodded. “Ready to sing?”

“Oh I don’t sing. I sign things. Hats, shirts.” He patted a bag over his shoulder. “I brought some kid-sized footballs. They love these things.”

I laughed. “Well, let this be your introduction into the entertainment business. These kids are going to hear Luke Canton sing.”

“Alexa.” His voice was firm.

I liked how it sounded over my ears. It reminded me of last night. Of the things he said to me. How commanding he was. How sexy and hot he was in his room. How I did what he asked in his bed. I didn’t say no once.

I smiled widely, pushing the door open. I didn’t give him a chance to back out. It was fun to make the big strapping quarterback squirm.

“Hey, there. I’m Lexi and this is my friend Luke. We came to say hi and sing a little for you. What’s your name?”

Luke stood next to me. I could feel him beside me. The heat emitting from his body.

“Daniel.”

“You like football, Daniel?” Luke reached into the bag and pulled out a foam ball about six inches long. The Warriors logo was painted on all sides.

The boy shook his head. “I do. And I love Lexi too.”

I smiled. “Thank you.” I bent over his bed to hug him. “You’re so sweet.”

Luke signed the ball and tossed it so the boy could catch it. “Nice grip you’ve got.”

I’d never seen a child smile like that. Clearly, I was taking a backseat to Luke.

“Really? Do you think I should play? My mom won’t let me, but maybe if you talked to her…” Daniel’s eyes were wide.

“She won’t let you play? That’s bull—”
