Excerpt
The crowd boos in memory, and
my throat clogs thinking about how Remy’s broken body had been carried out of
the ring.
“Have no fear, people. Have no
fear!”
“REMY!!!!!!!!!” someone screams.
“Bring
him out already!” another yells.
“Oh, we will. Have no doubt about it, we will,”
the announcer somberly says, painfully drawing it out for the crowd. “After
much speculation and many rumors, it’s completely official. The man is fighting
this season, and he’s taking no
prisoners, people! Here he is, ladies and gentlemen. Here. He. Is! You all know
who I’m talking about?”
The crowd roars, “RIP-TIIIIIIIDE!”
“Who?”
“RIP-TIIIIIIDE!”
“One more time, ’cause I can’t hear you!”
“RIPTIIIIIDE!”
“That’s right, ladies and
gentlemen! Here’s our favorite bad boy with that infamous smile and those
deadly fists, ready to carve R.I.P. into anyone who stands in his way this
year. The one, the only, Remingtoooon Tate, your RIPTIIIIIIIIIDE!!”
Wild excitement rushes through me as
the crowd stands and roars like never before.
“My god, the fans are thirsty
for him,” Pete breathes.
And so am I. My god. So am I.
Across the ring from me, women
are waving panties in the air. Panties! Another lifts a sign that reads pull me under, riptide!
My mouth is dry, and a thousand
and one winged things flutter in my stomach when I see a flash of red.
And then, he’s closer.
Trotting out of the walkway and
to the ring.
To his ring.
My body enlivens with
sensations as he breaks through the crowd.
Some fans have escaped their
seats and make a grab for him, but he easily shoves his way through the throng,
his face shadowed by the hood of his red satin robe. Remy. My Remy. The man I
love with every ounce of me.
“Riptide,
you put the sex in SEXY!”
“Remy,
I want you to fucking impregnate me!”
He climbs into the ring with a
fluid jump, and then he removes his riptide
robe, slowly, without hurrying. Hundreds of female screams ring in my
ears as he goes to his corner to hand the robe to Riley, his coach’s second.
Riley pats his muscled back
with a smile and tells him something. Remington throws his head back as if he’s
laughing and then takes the center of the ring, spreads his long, ripped arms
out, and starts doing his slow and cocky I-know-you-all-want-to-fuck-me turn.
I’m dying.
I will never, ever, get used to
the sight of him in that ring. My heart whams excitedly into my rib cage while
all my insides pulse with need, and my chest feels like a balloon about to
burst in excitement. Hard, lean, and perfect, he is all dangerous, all
beautiful, and all mine.
My eyes absorb every inch of
what every other woman here is drooling for, and I helplessly let my gaze run
up and down his perfect athletic form. My eyes lovingly caress his tan and kiss
the inky Celtic bands over his biceps. I admire his torso and his long, strong
legs, his sculptured arms, his narrow waist and broad shoulders. Every muscle
in his perfect body is so defined that you would know exactly where one
structure ends and the next begins if you trailed your fingers along his
magnificent form.
And as he turns even more, I
see the washboard abs with eight squares—eight! Yes, it is impossible, but he’s
got them . . . and his face.
Oh god, I can’t even take it.
The scruffy jaw. The brilliant
blue eyes. The sexy smirk. The dimples. He’s
got a smile on his face, his expression, one that tells you he’s got a whole
lot of trouble planned for the evening and you don’t want to miss it, is
playful and boyish.
A collective gasp spreads out
in the rows behind me as he moves to face us.
The butterflies in my stomach
burst awake when those dancing blue eyes start scanning the crowd, silently
laughing at all of us. He’s clearly amused by our obsession over everything
Remington Tate!
Beside me, a middle-aged blonde
with too much Botox jumps up and down and screams like a lunatic, “Remy! Give me a taste of that Riptide!”
The impulse to drag the woman
down by her hair seizes me, but at the same time, I know you can’t look at him
without dissolving into a pool of lust.
He is a stud. He was made to
mate. To procreate.
And I want him like my next
breath.
I want him more than any one of
these screaming women wants him.
I want every fragmented part of
him. I want his body. His mind. His heart. His beautiful soul.
He says he’s mine, but I know
that there’s a part of Remington Tate nobody will ever have.
I am his, but he is untamable
and unconquerable.
The only one who can defeat
Remington Tate is himself.
He’s up there, ever elusive and
mysterious, a black box of mystery without end. And I want to get lost in him,
even if I never come out the same.
