And knowing what she tastes like when she’s wet, aroused, and looking for more? Or how she sounds and looks when she comes? That will be torture for me, going forward.
I’ve given her my truths. All I’ve ever wanted since I met her was to kiss her. Impress her.
But in the end, shewillchoose him.
My throat is so tight, I can barely breathe. I feel my frustrations, my emotions, bubble to the surface. The urge to call down to the concierge for a bottle of Scotch is all-consuming. Just to get lost, forget, to erase this monopolizing pain ricocheting through my chest.
I pull on my thick strands.
Fuck, what do I do now?
Leave?
Chase her down the hall, begging her to stay?
Find the nearest bar?
I can’t stay here. I can’t wait around, wondering when she’ll return. No, I need to get the fuck out of here. I need to get home. I’m a billionaire, so I can fly my fucking self whenever I damn well please. That’s what I’ll do.
Leave.
Get home tonight.
Go to my safe place, my house, where Kelsey hasn’t touched one goddamn thing. Where I won’t be reminded of her.
Where I can sink into oblivion.
I glance around for my phone. I need to make the call. I need to pack. Fuck, who cares about packing? I can buy new shit.
I just need to leave.
I just need to—
The bedroom door creaks open. My body stills as my eyes flit to the door. It cracks open some more, and then Kelsey appears.
No air in my lungs.
No blood through my veins.
Nothing is working within me as I sit there, staring... wondering what the hell she’s doing.
She shuts the door behind her and walks over to me. Her strides are demure, her body language timid.
Hunched over, I sit up just as she stands in front of me.
“Kelsey, I—”
Not saying a word, she straddles my lap, lifts my chin with her forefinger, and before I can attempt to take my next breath, her lips are on mine.
Fuck... me.
All it takes is one touch for me to break.
I’m not sure what her intentions are, and I don’t give a fuck, because she’s kissing me. Kelsey is fucking kissing me, and it feels like I just died and went to heaven.
Soft.
In control.
