FELIX.I remove my helmet and hang it on the handle of my bike as I stare at the house in front of me.I look to the side to make sure Asher’s car isn’t there before I start moving. Once I get to the door, I look around once more before I input my key and turn the knob. I slide through the door before removing my key and dropping it into my pocket.The house is quiet. I gaze to the living room, to the clothes littered across the floor and over the arm of the sofa. With a shake of my head, I move further inside and take the hallway to Asher’s room.I mumble a word of prayer for it to be opened and my heart leaps with joy when I turn the knob and the sound of the door creaking echoes around. I soundlessly make my way into the room even when he isn’t around to catch me. His room is neat compared to the living room with only his bed untidy and, without wasting time, I make for the drawer by his bedside. I search through every single one for anything he could have that tape on—a phone he do
BRYNN.Felix obviously doesn’t want me here. If the seventeen calls I left over the past hours—I was desperate—wasn’t enough indication, then the way he’s staring at me right now as our eyes meet probably is.He doesn’t want me here.And maybe not just here. He might not want to see me altogether. But he left me with no other choice.I know I shouldn’t be here. This is the last place I should be, sitting with a crowd of eager watchers with eyes on the one guy my heart won’t stop pounding for.When Lemuel left me texts about Felix joining a match four nights away, I was stunned. If there’s one thing Felix made sure I knew from the time we spent together, it’s that he’d never take on a match. I knew something was wrong the second I got those texts. And I wondered what he must be thinking to take on the one thing he was so sure he wouldn’t.I didn’t care whether we were supposed to be staying away from each other; I called. And left messages. And he didn’t respond to either. He didn’t ta
BRYNN.Felix’s mouth is parted and his eyes are in their darkest shade when I look into them. I drop my finger from inside his mouth to his chin and he slowly, oh so tortuously, moves us back. His chest heaves and heavy pants leave his mouth as he walks me back till I’m back to the locker."Brynn," he starts to say, but I don’t let him. I don’t let him have a second thought about this, and I move my hands to grab both of his. I hold his gaze as I move them down, aiding them to grab my ass through the soft fabric of my skirt. I see the exact second that the flip switches and all the hesitation in his eyes disappears. He growls as he grabs more handfuls of my buttocks, squeezing them hard. "Please, Felix." I breathe into the air as I leave his hands there and move mine to his forearms.When Felix squeezes again, I let out a quiet moan as the sensation shoots straight to my core and I’m squirming against my wet panties."You should know," Felix speaks, his voice rougher, but not from the
FELIX. My jaw drops in awe as I stand hypnotized by the sight before me.The sexiest sight that my eyes have ever witnessed. So dirty and erotic, yet so pure.Her back is turned to me. Her naked back. And as my eyes roam across the flawless and milky skin, my throat moves; the sound of a gulp escaping my parted lips as I thirst to swipe my tongue across that smooth skin.I can feel every part of me get excited as her hand moves to her hair and she sweeps it to the left, letting me catch a glimpse of her neck and the sight of her backbone makes something shift in me.I can’t find my words and I can only continue to stare, with my tongue swiping over my suddenly overdry lips as I watch the silk dress brushed by her waist finally pool down her legs; If I thought the previous sight of her sexy back was the highlight of it, oh was I so wrong.My eyes are so wide that it’s a miracle my eyeballs haven’t dropped from their sockets as my gaze sweeps over the tattoo just above her well-rounded
FELIX.Today seems to be an amazing day for me. My mood seems to have escalated from this morning. I’d say it’s because of the terrific event that happened in my room. And happening right here again.I currently have my tongue shoved down my coworker’s throat. A very hot coworker. Hot as in, she’s fresh, and a brunette with green eyes plus a body to die for.Luck must be on my side because when I arrived this morning, she just grabbed my hand and led me here. Okay, maybe that’s not all that happened, but I confirm there was a minimum done on my part.She got hired a few days ago, and I’d admit I had my eyes on her, but I hadn’t approached. When I arrived today, I only sent her a wink with a very polite greeting and seemed like she was onto me too, cause the next break we had; she grabbed my hand and pulled me away faster than I could turn.“You’re so good at kissing.” She lauds breathlessly as she removes her mouth from mine to catch some air in her lungs, her chest heaving up and dow
FELIX.I was wrong when I said today was a good day for me. Thanks to Brynn Addams, I no longer feel that way.But I plan to turn things around. I’ll not let her successfully ruin this day for me. It started nicely, and it’s got to end on a pleasant note too.A smile is on my face as I park my bike by the building, the echoes coming from inside promising me the fun I’d have—one I’m here for.After chaining my bike to the ground, I throw the keys inside my back pocket and proceed to enter the building with an even bigger smile. After one glance down my body, the curtains of the room of fun are opened to me and I enter with an enthusiastic heart and my hands inside my pocket.I rock my head to the music that’s coming from the upper floor as my eyes try to adjust to the darker lights. Once I’m adjusted, my gaze roams across the room in search of the special girl who’d take away my frustrations tonight.All I see is bodies. Hot bodies sliding against each other. Wrapping. Colliding. Touch
FELIX.I’m ashamed to say she tugged at my heartstrings with those words. And not only because she stands there, in her messy state, with those brown eyes fixated on me as she waits for a response to her words. And despite the slight vulnerability I thought I heard when she muttered those words, I see no such thing in her eyes.She’s just so good with her emotions, isn’t she?“What?” I say just to taunt her, wanting her to repeat those words. But it’s Brynn Addams. I’m sure she’d rather wish the ground open up and swallow her before she let that sentence leave her mouth for a second time.“You heard me.” She replies with a hiss, that stoic expression back on her face and I smirk as I take the one step I had taken down back up. “I did. I just want you to repeat them.”She unfits her hands from the sides of her dress, and for a second, I thought she was contemplating it, but… “You can leave.” She nods to the exit before she turns and starts walking back to her table. I shake my head and
FELIX.I wasn’t wrong about the hell of a night.And I hate that.Brynn Addams is more than I thought she was.When I laid my eyes on her for the first time, it didn’t take more than a glance to know she was no ordinary girl. She screamed luxury and exuded such elegance I’d never encountered in my entire life. Her poise, stance, walk, appearance. Every single detail about her from that moment told me she was one of those girls who could get everything they wanted in the world with just a snap of their fingers. Not only did she bleed that rich and powerful aura, but she was also beautiful. Angelic beauty. The kind of beauty men go to war for. Her black long hair shone brightly against the warmth of the earth, and the features that framed her face were enough to captivate even the strongest of men.However, that Brynn Addams is completely different from the one who’s a few feet away from me.It’s the alcohol, I can tell. She drank more than I did, and I’m now seeing a side to her I’ve n
