FAKE DATING WITH BENEFITS MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS (Ophelia Corrigan) novel Chapter 86

CHAPTER 86

AMIE

The door to my apartment clicked shut, and the silence swallowed me whole.

I closed my eyes and pressed my forehead against the cool wood, trying to slow my heart rate, which was still stubbornly racing from the moment Simon had pressed his lips to the corner of my mouth.

“Idiot,” I muttered to the empty room. “You’re such an idiot.”

In the end, I hadn’t even stayed for the picnic. I’d come home. After that, I just didn’t have it in me to stand around smiling with work people.

I walked to the living room and collapsed onto the couch. The apartment was exactly as I’d left it-tidy, silent, perfectly empty. I’d always liked the quiet. Always liked the solitude. It was what I did best: being alone.

Except lately, over the past couple of days, that silence had gotten too heavy.

I grabbed the remote and turned on the TV, picking something random to fill the void.

On screen, a couple was running toward each other in the rain to some sappy love song.

I rolled my eyes.

“So ridiculous,” I muttered, switching channels.

Maybe I was a little bitter.

On another channel, a woman in a white coat was talking about the benefits of sex for women’s health. “Women over thirty who maintain an active sex life show lower stress levels and increased longevity,” she said, with that professional smile of someone who knew exactly what she was talking about.

“Fuck,” I muttered, turning the TV off.

I sat there for a moment, staring at the black screen, and then Simon’s image surfaced in my mind. The way he’d looked at me in the park. The touch of his lips against my skin. The words he’d whispered before

he left.

I miss you so much it’s killing me.

A tightness squeezed my chest. An emptiness that seemed to grow with every passing second.

“Enough,” I murmured, getting up from the couch. “Stop thinking about him. Get a grip, Jamie. Simon Hart is the last person in the world who’s going to make you believe in love again.”

My body felt like it weighed a ton as I dragged my feet to the bedroom.

I lay down, eyes fixed on the ceiling, arms crossed over my chest.

Something was wrong.

I was used to being alone. I’d always been. After Oliver, I’d learned to fill my days with work and my nights. Awith sleep.

Bu now, after everything that had happened with Simon, the loneliness felt different. Heavier. Almost unbearable.

I got up and went to the closet, pulling the doors open with a sharp movement. I needed a distraction, Anything to pull me out of that spiral of thoughts. My fingers moved over the folded t-shirts, the hanging dresses, until they found what I was looking for.

Simon’s shirt.

It was there, shoved in the back of the drawer. The fabric was soft, dark blue, and when I brought it to my face, I could still smell him.

Wood. Something citrusy. That scent I knew so well.

I closed my eyes and breathed deep.

“What the hell are you doing, Jamie?”

But I didn’t stop. I pulled off my dress, letting it fall to the floor, and pulled his shirt over my head.

I was completely naked underneath.

I walked back to the bed, lying on my back, knees bent. My legs fell open almost automatically, like my body knew exactly what it wanted before my mind could even process it.

I grabbed the vibrator from the nightstand.

That pink toy Simon had found in the box, with that arrogant smile that made me want to kill him and kiss him at the same time.

I closed my eyes and turned it on.

The buzz filled the silence of the room, and before I could think, his image surfaced in my mind. Standing in my living room, his shirt unbuttoned, those blue eyes fixed on me with that intensity that completely undid me.

“That’s all you could come up with to distract yourself from me?”

His voice in my head was so real I could almost hear the irony.

“You won’t leave me alone,” I murmured, my own voice a rough whisper.

I imagined him walking toward the bed, eyes dark, that dangerous smile on his lips. I imagined his hand finding my knee, pushing my legs wider. “Let me help you with that.”

I swallowed hard and slid the vibrator over my pussy, pressing it against my clit. The buzz vibrated through me, and a moan escaped my lips.

“Like this?” his voice whispered in my mind. “Is this how you like it?”

“Yes,” I gasped, arching my back against the mattress. “Exactly like that.”

The image of him leaning over me, lips grazing my neck. His tongue tracing a wet path to my collarbone His fingers finding mine, guiding the vibrator against me with more pressure.

“You’re so hot when you moan like that,” he murmured against my skin. “So fucking hot.”

“Simon…” His name escaped my throat like a desperate whisper.

In my imagination, he took the vibrator from my hand, his eyes never leaving mine. “Let me do this for you.”

I saw him slide the toy over my pussy, the movements slow and deliberate. Saw him tilt his head, his lips curving into that arrogant smile I hated so much.

“You’re so wet,” he said, his voice a deep rumble. “All this wetness just for me?”

“Yes,” I groaned, arching my back. “Just for you.”

He pressed the vibrator against my clit, circling it slowly, and a loud moan escaped my lips.

“Like that,” he whispered in my mind. “You’re going to come like this, Jamie. You’re going to come thinking

about me.”

My free hand found my breast, squeezing my nipple through the thin fabric of his shirt, and the sensation made me shiver. His scent wrapped around me completely, that familiar scent I knew so well.

I wanted it to be him. I wanted his fingers, his mouth, his body pressed against mine.

“You want me to fuck you?” his voice asked in my head. “Want to feel my cock inside you?”

“Yes,” I cried, my fingers clutching the sheets. “Please, Simon. Please.”

He sped up the rhythm of the vibrator, moving it faster, harder, and I felt the orgasm start to build deep in my belly.

“Come,” he ordered, his voice a rough command. “Come for me, Jamie. Now.”

The orgasm hit me like a wave.
