“Uh… right. Shame.” I let out a nervous chuckle, looking anywhere but at her, suddenly very aware of the cum in my shorts.
Out of the corner of my eye, I can see her frown, tilting her head in question to my reaction. I’m in my head, and confused as fuck.
Fantasies of what Ivy and I could be, flash through my mind. I’ve been so unwilling to cross this boundary in fear of losing her. But what if it’s worth the risk? What ifshe’sworth the risk? I’ve only known her for a month. I couldn’t possibly know that this early.
I need to get away and think. My brain stops working around her, and I can’t make potential big life decisions, that include my daughter’s well being, while under her spell.
“Have a good night, Ivy,” I say, looking her in the eye for just a moment to try and prove to myself I can behave like an adult.
I gingerly lift off of the bed, and walk the handful of steps to the door when she stops me.
“Wesley.”
Hand on the doorknob, I look back over my shoulder.
“Friends?” She gives me a hopeful, timid smile.
A weight sinks in my gut. I plaster on the most polite smile I can muster.
“Friends.”
I open the door and enter mine and Delilah’s room, shutting it softly behind me. She’s still spread out and snoring in bed. I lean back and rest my head against the door.
Out of our systems.
Well, it didn’t fucking work. I feel her even deeper in my veins now.
Okay, I need to relax. I read one chapter of vampire romance, and now she’s in my blood?
Grinding my molars, I mime banging my head against the door, then push off of it. The movement makesme pause, and my eyes drift closed as I remember my shorts are filled with cum.
I’m so out of my depth with this woman.
