I couldn’t forget that look on his face, it was tattooed in
my memories. Maddox Coulter was more than Berkshire’s
star quarterback. He was a complicated puzzle, and I
wanted to tear him apart, layer by layer, so I could study
him, delve into his soul and learn all his secrets.
A gust of wind breezed past us, and I quickly patted my
hair down. This time, I couldn’t hold back the involuntarily
shudder that racked through me. Maddox took notice, and
he frowned, his eyebrows pinching together. “Why don't
you have a proper jacket on?”
I hugged myself, rubbing my hands up and down my
arms. “I didn't think it was going to be this cold. I thought
the sweater would be enough.”
Before I could finish my sentence, and before I knew
what was happening, he shrugged off his jacket and pushed
it toward me.
I eyed the jacket, suspiciously. “What are you doing?”
Maddox circled my wrist with his finger and dragged me
closer. He placed the jacket over my shoulders and gave me
a pointed look, his face hard, until I succumbed and placed
my arms through the sleeves. “Keeping you warm. I'm a
man, Lila. I know you don't like me and think I'm an
absolute asshole.”
His lips twitched when I scoffed. “Fine, I'm an asshole
sometimes."
I gave him the look. Are you serious?
"Okay, all the time. But I still know how to treat a lady
right.”
Treat a lady right? What a joke.
But still… my heart warmed. His scent was still heavy on
the jacket, and I chewed on my lip when I noticed how good
the smell of him was.
Maddox buttoned up the jacket for me and tugged the
collar higher and closer, so my neck was covered. “There.
Cozy enough?”
