Joseph’s POVMy erection sat eagerly between Tessa’s legs as she straddled me. Her wearing my shirt was the sexiest thing I had ever seen in my entire life. It fit her perfectly and showed off her incredible, smooth legs.I ran my fingers up her spine, watching as she trembled against me. With each kiss and flick of her tongue across my bottom lip, my cock twitched with anticipation. It wanted to be buried inside of her and pump her full of my seed.She smiled into my kiss as her teeth grazed my lips. The small moans she made as my tongu
Tessa’s POVI was a lot more nervous about seeing Ruby than I thought I would be. I had so many worries racing through my mind that I hadn’t really thought about it until we were almost at her apartment.I hadn’t been able to speak to Ruby in about 3 weeks and I worried she was going to be furious with me. There was no doubt in my mind that she was worried and probably losing her mind, not being able to reach me. This was the longest I’ve been without speaking with her and the fact that I didn’t tell her I was disappearing was a huge factor in how this was going to go down.
Third Person POVHello Miss Ruby Gonzales, my name is Cora Hanley, owner of the Cora Hanley fashion line in New York City. We received your submission and application to become a fashion designer. Your work shows a lot of promise and I’m impressed with the level of details on the dress you submitted. I understand that you just graduated with your degree in design, and I’d love for you to meet with me. I can’t guarantee that we can get you a job as a designer right away, but I am hiring an assistant and with some hard work, doors are bound to open for you in this industry. Please reply as soon as possible and we can schedule a time for that interview.
Tessa’s POVAfter leaving Ruby’s apartment, I was numb for the rest of the evening. I don’t even remember going back to Joseph’s house. Joseph held me in his arms for the rest of the night, kissing the back of my shoulder and rubbing his hands up and down my spine, causing goosebumps to form on my flesh.It wasn’t until I felt safe in his arms, snuggled against him in bed, that the dam inside of me broke and tears soaked his pillow. My body trembled as a small sob escaped my lips. I covered my mouth to keep them from consuming me, but it was no use.
Tessa’s POVWhen I walked into the living room, Joseph was sitting on the couch, and I wasn’t expecting the guest he had sitting on the other couch in front of him.Carter sat with his leg crossed over the other and a smile on his face as he spoke to his best friend. I hadn’t spoken to Carter in a while, not since I found out that he was ghosting Ruby. Carter had completely broken her heart; I had no idea how serious the two of them were getting until Carter confessed to her what he was. Of course, Ruby didn’t believe a thing he said and thought he was playing a cruel joke on her.
Tessa’s POVEverything happened all at once. I dropped my cell phone to the ground and covered my mouth with my hands as I stared up at Joseph. For once, in this whole time that I’ve known him, I saw uncertainty in Joseph’s eyes.Carter was already out the door, heading to the train station. I was completely frozen.“Hello?” The person asked. “Is anybody there?”I completely forgot he was still on the phone with the train stat
Tessa’s POVI wasn’t sure how long we were waiting in the waiting room. Time seemed to stand still; we could have been there for minutes, maybe even hours. I couldn’t be sure. My insides had gone numb, and I cried all the tears that I could.Joseph was kind enough to remain silent for most of the time so I could process my thoughts. I stared down at my phone screen, staring at the last text I received from Ruby. Staring at the words, “I miss you.”This can’t be the last message I receive from her. I refus
Joseph’s POV“What’s going on?” Tessa asked, breaking through the silence that consumed us.“I didn’t know what else to do,” Carter whispered, staring down at his hands. “I can’t lose her…”Tessa’s brows pinched together as she studied him carefully.“The blood on your face… it’s not from Ruby…” she whispered; it wasn’t a question, but he nodded anyway.
