I can never touch her again.
Rising slowly, ignoring the bulge in my pants, I move away from the bed to the interconnecting door.
“Repay the favor,” she murmurs.
Pausing in the doorway, I face forward, not daring to look at her. “I can’t.”
“Your cock is rock-hard.”
“If I pull my cock out now with you lying in my bed as you are, I will rail you so fucking hard, I will break you in half.”
“And?” Her excited pant is hard to ignore, but I do.
“And then nothing.”
Nothing except separation, loss, misery, heartbreak, and death.
Forcing myself to move forward, I close the interconnecting door behind me and lean against it, feeling the weight of my words settle heavily on my shoulders, knowing that I have to stay away for her own sake.
Chapter24
Rue
Rolling over as he closes the door between the rooms, I sigh and cup my pussy, still feeling my clit throbbing from the climax that was good but could’ve been epic if Isaac had just let his guard down.
He’s too strong-willed.
I don’t like it.
Well, actually, I do. It’s hot as fuck, but wow, a girl could get a complex here if he doesn’t bend soon.
Groaning with frustration, I flop onto my back and stare at the ceiling, contemplating the night I got engaged, married and widowed.
What a clusterfuck.
Closing my eyes, I relax, inhaling deeply but not catching the scent of Isaac's aftershave, which is a shame.
Soon, I feel myself drift off, jumping awake moments later when I see Antonio’s dead face in my dreams.
“Fuck,” I pant and then turn over, sweating and tangled up in the cotton sheet. Disorientated and panicked for a split second, I remember I’m in Isaac’s bed. Shoving my hair from my face, I sit up and glare at the sunlight streaming through the French doors. “Isaac?” I call out, untangling my limbs from the sheet.
When there is no reply, I tilt my head and hear the shower running in the bathroom off this room.
With a wicked grin, I scoot off the bed and cross over to the closed door, turning the handle.
“Locked,” I growl when I get no further. “You fucker.”
Spinning on my heel, annoyed, I head back into my room to see that the bed is perfectly made as it was when I left it.
He didn’t sleep.
Scooping up my hair and finding a hairband on the nightstand, I tie it up and make my way to the shower, pausing to take my pill with a gulp of water from the bottle on the dresser left over from last night. Not that I should bother. I won’t be fucking anyone except Isaac, and he is holding off right now. I’m celibate until I can break him. Hopefully, sooner rather than later. Needing to get out of here for the day, especially as my parents think I’m going to Grove City, I get ready quickly and dressed in black today, I grab my purse and throw in a couple of tampons. I’m due my period today, and I don’t want to be caught unaware on the road. Before I can call on Isaac to remove me from the scene of the crime that I’m trying not to think about, a knock on the door stops me. Opening it, I see it’s my mother. She looks exhausted and disheveled.
“What’s up?” I ask, stepping back as she comes inside.
“Are you okay?”
“Yep. Fine.”
