Nicholas’s body grew hot. It had been a few days since we met, so it didn’t take much time for him to be aroused. I could hear him swallow hard.
Turning me toward him, he hovered above me and leaned into my face. I turned my head away, and his kiss landed on my cheek. Only our shallow breaths filled the air.
I tried to push him away, but there was no way I could budge him. His kisses became more reckless as k resisted, trailing from my cheek to my beck, down to my collarbone, and going further down…
My eyes were wide open in the dark, and I was fully aware as I watched him lose control. When he was about to stop holding back, I murmured, “Did you come to see me just for this?”
Nicholas felt like his heart had stalled despite its rapid pounding earlier. Ariana’s words were so cold that they chilled him to the core.
Ever since he saw her photo online, he had meticulously arranged everything–down to the music festival, where he had Ms. Gardner coordinate with the organizers and artists. It had cost him not only tremendous effort but also a large sum of money.
But no matter how much effort he put in, Ariana merely thought that his only intention was to sleep with her. Taking a deep breath, Nicholas closed his eyes and rolled over to the other side of the bed..
“Let’s just sleep,” he said, sounding exhausted.
Silence enveloped the room. I turned my back toward him. Once, I used to love sneaking into his arms. But now, the gap between us was so wide that it could fit two more people.
Even after closing my eyes, I couldn’t shake off the image of Nicholas performing on stage tonight. I couldn’t recall how he led me out of the venue–only his mesmerizing voice and kisses lingered in my mind.
A twinge of anguish prickled at me. This feeling gnawed at me, especially on sleepless nights where it only intensified and made me feel even more aggrieved.
