King of Campus Chapter 14: Ivy
The confusion I'm feeling must be written all over my face because in the next breath he says, "This is going to happen between us, Ivy."Almost frantically, I shake my head. "No."Slowly quirking a brow, he grins down at me. "You didn't enjoy that, sweetheart?" Before I can even formulate an answer, he continues, his voice all low and sexy. The cadence of it strums something deep inside me. "Because I'm kind of thinking you did." He lays a gentle kiss at the corner of my lips before whispering, "You were moaning into my mouth, practically begging me for more."Lying at this point would only make me look foolish. Not to mention a huge ass liar. And I may be an idiot for allowing this to unfold between us, but I'm not a liar. "It has nothing to do with enjoying that kiss and everything to do with not being the kind of girl you're used to hooking up with."Even though it's the last thing I want to do, I untangle myself from him as the elevator doors slide open. I'm about to
King of Campus Chapter 15: Roan
Apparently, someone enjoyed a pomegranate and berry smoothie today. Thanks for the update Chad ;) We can always count on you to keep us in the know! KingOfCampus.com"Hi," I give the older woman sitting behind the front desk a full wattage smile, "is Ivy around?"She blinks a few times before a cheeky grin pulls up the corners of her mouth. "Well, hello there, handsome."I can't help but laugh in response.Wanting to get a better look at me, she leans across the front desk. Her gaze takes a leisure tour before coming back to rest on my face. "I know who you are."For one ridiculous moment, I wonder if Ivy has mentioned me to this woman. Don't ask why the notion of her talking about me sends a little thrill slicing through me, but it does."You're Roan King. Wide receiver for the Barnett Bulldogs. I just read an article about you in the newspaper. First game of the season yesterday and you all but crushed Ohio."I smile even though something that feels suspiciously like
King of Campus Chapter 16: Roan
Unable to help myself, my gaze slides appreciatively over her body as she turns away from me. A few seconds later, she's jogging over to the corner of the studio where her bag is lying against the wall. She slips off her black ballet shoes before pulling on an oversized T-shirt and pair of leggings. Sliding her feet into a pair of shoes, she then shoves the ballet slippers into her bag.I seriously can't believe how hot this girl is. And watching her dance, that only kicks it up a hundred notches. Unfortunately, I have a semi-aroused situation going on in my jeans. God forbid I actually stiffen all the way up while we're walking out of here. It's doubtful that Ivy would be flattered by my lust. She'd probably refuse the ride back to the apartment.I try focusing on things that are in no way related to Ivy...or dancing...or long caramel colored hair...or skintight leotards. Damn it.Instead, I focus on the season opener we played yesterday. I think about the arms and ches
King of Campus Chapter 17: Roan
Two hours later, we're camped out at the library. We both have our laptops out and are typing away as we formulate a loose outline of what our project will entail. It may sound a little obvious, but we've decided to delve into the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme.That dude couldn't have been more unethical if he tried. There's so much material to work with, it's almost overwhelming. Entire books, along with articles in business journals and newspapers, have been written about this subject, so research is plentiful. And I don't think I'm the only one who finds it interesting either. Ivy has been riveted to her computer screen for the last hour. Every so often, she shakes her head, sharing some tidbit she's stumbled across.For a moment, I sit back and watch her work. Her light brown hair is still piled high on her head in a messy bun like it was last night. Even thinking about her spending time alone with Finn McKenzie has me gritting my teeth. Her bright green eyes flash with in

Now this is some seriously breaking news-Roan King was photographed several times in the company of a certain brown-haired young woman. Does anyone know who the vixen in question is? KingOfCampus.com"Oh my god," Lexie squeals before shaking me so hard that a few fillings in my teeth loosen.I groan and try to knock her off me. "What the hell, Lexie? It's seven in the morning. Get out of here." I attempt to roll away from her sadistic tirade, but she won't stop molesting me."Get your ass up! You have to see this!" Her voice rises in decibel."In an hour. I'll see whatever it is you have to show me then." I wave my hand toward the bedroom door. "Now get out of my room before I bludgeon you to death." It's not an idle threat either...I'll do it.With both hands, she shakes me again until it feels like my brain is being scrambled. "You'll want to see this right now," she promises.Maybe the quickest way to get Lexie to vacate my room is to agree to her demands. The gi
King of Campus Chapter 19: Ivy
Ladies, ladies, please...we can't trash this girl simply because she's been seen a few times with the love of our lives. Even though I kind of want to... KingOfCampus.comWith humongous sunglasses covering my face, I keep my head angled down as I hurry to class. My long golden-brown hair cascades over my shoulders and against my back. Anything to make me look different from the photos that have been splashed across that damn website.All morning long, I've been fielding text messages from friends who recognized me in the pictures posted online. I honestly thought this whole thing would be a non-issue. I mean, so what if I was photographed with Roan? Who the hell cares? He must get photographed with girls all the time. Right?Wrong.Sure, at parties. Around campus. Or in groups with several grinning females (and their monstrous boobs) in the shot. There are tons of those kinds of pics all over the place. But there aren't any of him leaving a dance studio, in a smoothie
King of Campus Chapter 20: Ivy
I have it on excellent authority that the girl Roan has been photographed with is nothing more than a partner for a class project. I think we can all breathe a huge sigh of relief that there's nothing going on between those two. I mean come on now...this is Roan King we're talking about. He doesn't do relationships. Thank goodness for that ;) KingOfCampus.comI'm sitting in the middle of my bed with my laptop and my French book splayed open in front of me. I have an exam in two days and I'm trying to prepare for it when there's a light knock on my bedroom door. Since it's about eight at night, I've already showered and changed into a comfy tank top and pair of shorts.Glancing up, I figure its Lexie. Although she usually barges in. I mean, too hell with privacy and all that crap... In her defense, I think we both know I'm not in here having some kind of hot monkey sex with anyone.I suppose that in and of itself should have been the first tip-off that it wasn't Lexie."Si
King of Campus Chapter 21: Ivy
Those are the only words careening through my head as I race to the bed. Our gazes continue to cling as I barrel toward him like a freight train."Oh, I think Iv-"That's all he's able to get out before I'm ripping the phone out of his fingers. If I'm lucky, I managed to leave a few claw marks. God damn it! I seriously can't believe this is happening right now! Then I remember to smooth out my features before looking at the small screen. "Ahh, hi, Dad. What are you calling for? You never call on a Monday night. Is something wrong?"Normally we speak every Sunday afternoon. Except for yesterday because I was busy. If he has any inkling that I'm angry about everything that went down after my mom died, it's not something we discuss. Or even acknowledge. It's all been swept neatly under the rug where it can fester.At least for me, it does."I was hoping that maybe you could come home next weekend and spend the day with us."Without even thinking about what I have going
