“I don’t know. It’s a big step. Besides, I hate my voice.” I cringed because I knew I needed to stop pointing out my flaws.

“Oh, stop. Your voice is sexy.”

Knowing that he liked my voice made my heart misfire, and I knew I was in trouble. I kept telling myself it wasn’t true, but over the last few weeks, I’ve developed feelings for a man I never met.

“Tell me about your harem of women. I find it fascinating.” I needed to switch the conversation to something that would probably make me realize he was an asshole.

“I’m getting bored with them. I think it’s time for a change.”

Did I want to know what he meant by that? I mean, shit, I didn’t want to think about him screwing some girl while I had a lovely dinner with Gary. “A change?”

“I have someone very specific in mind.”

“Does she know?” I was torturing myself at this point.

“I’d have to ask her, but I’m pretty sure she does. She’s a smart girl. She had to figure it out by now.”

“Maybe you should tell her.”

“Okay, hold on a sec.”

Utter silence. I swore at myself under my breath. What a fucking idiot I’d been.

I heard a low chuckle. “I want you, Sophia. I don’t want just any woman. I want to taste you.” His voice was smooth as silk.

My breath hitched, and I closed my eyes as images of Kayden fucking me, bringing me to my knees with pleasure, made me squeeze my thighs together. I was in so much trouble.

Summer Vacation

Summer vacation had begunweeks ago, and I had entirely too much time on my hands. Daydreaming about Kayden had almost become the only thing I wanted to do anymore.

Suzy, my roommate, and I spent our days at the pool, soaking in the sun while she read and I texted him. I’d moved in with her a few months ago and grown closer than we’d been before.

Kayden: What are you doing?

Me: Swimming with Suzy.

Kayden: Send me a picture. Ask Suzy to take it. I want to see your swimsuit.

No way would I send him a photo. I didn’t even like the few kids in the pool seeing me in my swimsuit, let alone sending a photo that could never be erased to a total stranger.

Me: No way in hell—not going to happen, Kayden.

Kayden: Please.

“What are you shaking your head about?” Suzy asked, setting her book down on the table between our lounge chairs.

“Kayden. He wants me to send him a picture.”

“What are you going to do?”

I shrugged. “Any ideas?”

Suzy looked around and stopped on the glass doors that lined the back of the pool clubhouse. “Oh, I have a fabulous idea. Use the glass doors and take a selfie.”
