The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 95

She kept calling his name.

Her sweet voice had already drawn the young man’s attention again, and he turned to glance back.

It was the kind of sound that made you want to keep looking.

Stanley could only glare and head back to his side of the room.

Wendy had already crawled back into bed. Stanley glared at her, irritated, “What are you doing, calling out like that? Trying to summon something?”

Wendy was speechless. She was only trying to help!

“I’m going to take a cold shower,” Stanley muttered, heading straight for the bathroom.

A few minutes later, he emerged, his body still damp as he climbed back into bed.

The two of them lay in silence, the air thick with tension. From the next room, faint sounds of laughter and playful conversation reached them–the man and woman were still at it, their voices low but distinct.

Stanley was about to get up and take another cold shower, but just as he moved to throw the covers off, he felt movement next to him. Wendy, who had been lying far away from him by the edge of the bed, had shifted closer. Her delicate body was now pressed against his side.

For a moment, the air around them seemed to warm with the soft scent of her.

Stanley froze. They were both adults, fully aware of what that kind of proximity meant, especially with the tension in the air. Wendy was clearly making the move to get closer to him, the invitation obvious.

He looked down at her, his voice low and curious. “What are you doing?”

Wendy lifted her watery, doe–like eyes to meet his, her gaze playful. “What do you think?”

Stanley’s throat tightened as he swallowed, but before he could respond, his phone buzzed with an incoming call.

He pulled out his phone and saw that it was Jessica.

He answered the call, and immediately, Jessica’s teasing voice came through. “Stanley, why aren’t you replying to my texts?”

Jessica had sent him childhood photos earlier, and he had forgotten to respond.

“I’ve been busy…” Stanley started, but his words faltered when Wendy, in one smooth motion, crawled into his lap, her lips brushing against his throat.

His muscles locked up at the sudden, unexpected contact, and his eyes darkened, a wave of heat rushing through

him.

He quickly placed his hand on her delicate shoulder, pushing her back gently, signaling her to stop.

She had done it on purpose. She knew exactly when to kiss him, just as he was on the phon wanted to test his resolve.

*h Jessica. Wendy

Her soft, pink lips lingered on his neck, teasing him as she kissed the sharp line of his throat, which resembled his chiseled face, utterly intoxicating.

The room was eerily quiet, and Jessica’s voice came through again. “Stanley, why are you always so busy? What are you doing right now? Are you alone?”

Wendy, clearly not done, bit down lightly on his throat.

Stanley couldn’t keep talking to Jessica with Wendy acting like this. He swiftly ended the call and, in one motion, pulled Wendy off him by her shoulder, his voice low and strained. “Don’t bite.”
