For that man, she was willing to go through hell and back. So, to step inside an abandoned building for him was not a big deal at all.
Selina inserted the key and hesitated, sucking in a deep breath. Then, she turned the key gently and pushed open the apartment door.
As soon as she did, a woman's moan pierced her ears.
"Dylan, don't kiss me there! I'm sensitive. Please don't!"
"F*ck, that feels so good."
Selina's mind turned into static. She could feel that something inside her was about to explode.
Blood rushing into her head, she kicked open the door violently.
And she was immediately greeted by the disgusting sight of Dylan tangled up with a woman, his tongue intertwined with hers.
That woman was a bombshell. She lay sprawled across the bed, her back arching towards the man above her. Half of her breasts were exposed.
With lightning speed, Selina grabbed the broom next to her and swung it down on the two of them.
"Dylan Cowell, you b*stard! This is why you wanted me to come, huh? To watch you f*ck another woman!"
The woman let out a half shriek in surprise, startled by Selina's intrusion. She stared at her in horror.
She could see that Selina was not someone to be trifled with. Picking up her clothes on the floor, she scrambled and ran out of the apartment.
Selina raised the broom and was about to smack Dylan, but he quickly pulled her into a tight hug. "My Selina, you're here to see me," he purred, his hot breath tickling her ear.
Feeling his heat wrapped around her, she could feel herself instantly melting into a puddle. The hard planes of his muscles flexed against her skin as he pulled her into a warm embrace.
As he moved, the stubble on his chin rubbed against her skin, sending jolts of electricity through her body.
Then, she remembered what happened just a minute ago. Selina broke away from his strong arms and yelled, "Dylan, you son of a b*tch!" She almost forgot her raging anger towards him for a moment.
However, Dylan didn't seem to take her seriously at all.
He pulled her back into his arms and leaned down to nip her earlobe. "I am a son of a b*tch. You are in love with a son of a b*tch, aren't you?"
Skillfully, he took her earlobe between his teeth in a gentle nip, sending her shocks through the most sensitive part of her body.
Engulfed in the scent of his cologne, Selina felt her legs buckle under the sudden pleasure.
She bit down hard on her bottom lip, almost drawing blood from it.
Just a few minutes ago, Dylan was still enjoying himself in another woman's arms. If she had not entered the apartment, he would have slept with that woman already. However, at this moment, she was willing to forget everything that he had done to her and take the place of that woman in pleasing him.
She hated herself for being so spineless.
But she lost all control of herself whenever he was near.
She had tried everything she could to get away from Dylan over the years. She made so many attempts to leave him.
But everything she did was in vain.
Dylan had already made a forever home at her soft spot.
Even though he had hurt her countless times before, she still couldn't stop loving him.
"Selina, you're aroused." Dylan chuckled, interrupting her thoughts. "You still love me, don't you? I know you still love me."
She shot Dylan a hard look.
Dylan began fumbling on her clothes. He pulled and tugged on her shirt, attempting to undress her. "Selina, you scared away the woman I intended to sate my lust with, so you will replace her to please me instead. I've wanted you for a long time. Let me taste you, Selina. I bet f*cking you feels better than f*cking other women."
Selina came back to her senses when she heard his final sentence.
Smack!
She gave Dylan a brutal slap in the face.
Dylan didn't seem to care at all. Unaffected, he continued stripping her of her clothes. "If you love me so much, why refuse to sleep with me?"
She grabbed his hands firmly to stop him.
Although she was catastrophically in love with him, she was still waiting for him to pass the final test before committing herself to him.
"You b*stard, don't ask to sleep with me if you don't want to marry me!"
Dylan's movements halted, and he immediately let go of her.
Selina's face fell.
She knew that Dylan would never marry her.
She had waited for ten years, but he never showed any intentions of doing so.
"Is there anything else that you would like to tell me? If there's nothing else, I'm leaving," she spat coldly as she pushed open the door to leave.
Holding back her tears, she ignored the lump in her throat as she walked down the corridor.
Why was she doing this? She was only degrading herself.
She was already twenty-five!
She was only fifteen when they first met, and the silly puppy crush stuck with her ever since.
She had wasted ten years of her life for this man.
And look what she got in return.
She let out a self- deprecating laugh and murmured to herself, "Oh, Selina. You asked for it."
Suddenly, a powerful force from behind halted her movements.
