‘Can I take off your panties?’ he asked.
‘Yeah.’
Jake slid my dress and knickers down my legs before tossing them on the floor to join my bra.
I took in the sight of him.Sculpted chest and abs, plus the perfect washboard stomach that belonged on the cover ofMen’s Fitnessmagazine.
And his giant cock.
He was the most beautiful man I’d ever seen and I was about to have sex with him.
This was…
Terrifying.
As Jake edged forward and the reality of what was about to happen hit me, I froze.
‘I can’t.’ I bolted up, my heart leaping into my throat.My body temperature rose and my chest tightened.‘I’m sorry.’
I jumped off the bed, raced into the bathroom and slammed the door behind me.

What the hell just happened?
As I watched Halle sprint inside the bathroom and lock the door, my chest tightened.
What did I do?
Did I move too fast?
Did she feel pressured?
No.That couldn’t be right.I checked in every step of the way to make sure she was happy.
She seemed a little freaked out by the size of my cock, but it couldn’t be that either, right?
Maybe she just changed her mind, which was totally fine, it was her choice.I knew she’d said it’d been a long time for her, so maybe she wasn’t ready.That was why I wanted to take my time, make sure she was warmed up properly so that I satisfied her, but it was her that suggested we get straight down to business, so I didn’t understand.
I got dressed, jumped off the bed then started pacing across the room.
Something wasn’t right.
The more I thought about it, the more I was convinced that it wasn’t just about Halle changing her mind.There was a hint of something in her eyes.
I could be wrong, but she looked kind of terrified.
‘Halle.’ I knocked on the door.‘Are you okay?’
‘Not really,’ she said softly.‘I’m sorry I messed you around.’
‘There’s nothing to apologise for.It’s okay to change your mind – at any point.I just wanna make sure that you’re okay.’
‘I just… I wanted to.I really did.But I couldn’t.’
‘Were you worried that I’d hurt you?’ I sucked in a breath, waiting for her response.I really hoped that wasn’t the case.
