Page 41 of Chasing Riddick

Shit… was that against the rules?

No. It couldn’t be. I had no control over that… though I wasn’t convinced Riddick would see it that way.

Feeling anxious and unsure, I hopped in the shower and scrubbed the dried cum off my body before rushing to make myself a protein-heavy breakfast.

I was just tucking in when Riddick arrived.

I’d unlocked the door for him, and he strolled in looking as hot as he always did.

His white T-shirt clung to him like a second skin, and it was worn out and faded enough that I could see the shadows of his nipples through the cotton.

Averting my gaze, I took a big gulp of orange juice to distract myself from the wall of a man who had just walked into my space.

“Morning,” I greeted him, trying to act natural.

He helped himself to the seat across from me and stared.

I eyed him warily, taking a bite of my eggs and waiting for him to say something. Of course, he didn’t.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” I asked, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

“You drink?”

“No.”

“Smoke?”

“No.”

“Fuck?”

“Of course not, Riddick, Christ. Are we going to do this every damn day?”

His blue eyes twinkled with a playful sort of amusement, and I found myself beginning to grin despite myself.

“You do anything else I should know about?” he asked, completely ignoring my question.

Why was he smirking like that?

I narrowed my eyes at him, remembering how I woke up covered in cum.

I bit my lip nervously, and his gaze flicked down to my mouth before returning to meet my gaze.

Should I tell him?

I was sick of these head games he was playing with me. He was taunting me with that little smirk on his stupid, handsome face and his gorgeous, sparkling eyes.

He knew what he was doing.

I wasn’t going to let him continue to gaslight me into thinking I was crazy. He was definitely vibing with me, too.

“I had a wet dream,” I told him, studying his expression carefully so I could pick apart his reaction and examine it later.

“Did you now?” he asked, and my heart thumped.

“Yeah. I woke up covered in cum,” I said, doing myverybest to keep a straight face.

He licked his lips, and his eyes darkened.
