ASHLEY.
A groan falls from my lips as my eyes open to the sound of a slam at my door.
Sitting up on my mattress, I hold my pounding head in my hands as I gawk around the space of my room. God, how much did I have to drink? My head hurts so fucking bad.
"What the fuck happened? How did I get home?" I mumble under my breath as I glance around in search of my phone— only to end up with nothing. Did Lucy bring me home? What the hell happened last night? The last scene I remember is Ralph showing up with his friends.
"Ashley! Are you still in?" Mother's voice comes from the other end and I grumble as I attempt to move from my mattress, halting my movement at the sight of the body imprint at the other side.
I narrow my eyes as I wobble closer, skidding my fingers across the imprint. Someone was here. Someone was with me last night and I can't rem
SINCLAIR. The excitement that spews through me after Lillian's words is intractable, and I can't help the way my lips quirks up in a small smile, but those words also make me incredibly curious. Meeting Lillian, I discerned she is reserved and calm. She mentioned nothing in defiance to her parent's words that night, and the smile that was etched on her face made me think she wanted the marriage while I was simmering in anger. So why defy? "And I know you want the same thing. I know you don't want this marriage to take place, Sinclair. For whatever reason you might have. " She speaks, pulling me out of my thoughts and I nod, drawing close to her. "I don't, and I'm surprised you don't either. Is there a reason for this?" I question and she stares down at her hands, her cheeks a deep shade of red before lifting her gaze to mine and saying, "I have my man. " "You do?" I re
ASHLEY."Where are you going?" Ryan questions with a frown as I grab my bag and move to my feet."Somewhere you aren't. " Lucy answers behind me and I chuckle. "I need to be somewhere. Thank you for this, I had fun. " I tell him with a smile, waving at Ralph before heading towards the exit.Just as I round the corner that leads to the entrance, I meet Lucy's gaze again and the woman smiles at me before bringing her hand to her ear in a motion of 'call me later. 'With a smile on my face, I make my way out of the building with hurried steps and a racing heart.~With each step that brings me closer to my home; my heart pounds wildly against my chest and I clutch my phone tighter.I will see him. After days and months of waiting and yearning; I will finally see the man who stole my heart and made it his.
SINCLAIR.The feel of her in my arms again: the way her chest presses against mine, driving me completely insane and the way her mouth moves perfectly against mine. A low groan falls from my mouth when she proceeds to slowly rock against my hardened cock– the little man straining painfully against my pants and begging to be let in her wet, throbbing core."Oh, Sinclair, " she moans, her grip on my locks getting tighter just the way I love it. Her head tilts to the side, giving me extra access to the fresh flesh of her neck and I take my time to drag my lips along the flawless skin; littering kisses every space I can find and claiming this woman as mine again after a long time of fucking wait."I want to feel you raw, baby. I want to feel your walls clench around my cóck without rubber. I want to feel you pulsating as I steer you rough and fast, and I want to fill you with my fucking cum&nda
ASHLEY. "You love it that much?" Sinclair chuckles as I stalk my finger across the two words right across his chest– dazzled by my name. I still can't believe he got a tattoo of the nickname he gave me; one I've grown so much to love. "I'm not over it yet. " I respond nonchalantly and he hums, draping a hand over my shoulder to pull me close and I let out a sigh as I lay my head against his chest with a smile on my face; my core tingling from the brush of his hardened cock against it. After making me orgasm twice in the living room, we ended up in my room with my back against the wall and it's a complete puzzle to me how the man is still hard. "Vincent must be so mad at me. " He suddenly mumbles and I nod against his chest with a cackle, saying, "He is. He tried your contact numerous times and left tons of messages. " "I saw them, " he breathes.
SINCLAIR. I stare ahead to see Lillian parked before me, and I smile as I watch her move out of her car, glancing sideways before crossing towards me and climbing inside. "Hey you, " I greet her as she adjusts in her seat before turning to meet my eyes with a smile. "Hey, Sinclair. " "I didn't think you would call so fast. Why here though? You had troubles with the restaurant last night?" I question and she hums softly, "I'm not sure how it happened, but someone took pictures of us at the restaurant. " "Your father placed a spy on you?" I scoff and she nods, saying, "Yes, he showed me the pictures when we talked last night, but that wasn't the nastier part. The worst is pictures of me and Jake. He got so angry. " I get alert at that. Fuck, that's not fucking good in any way. "I'm sorry. He didn't hit you, or anything right?"
ASHLEY. "Hi baby. " I let out a yelp, jumping at the sudden sound. Sinclair chuckles as he pushes his body from the wall and stands before me. "You are such a scaredy-cat. " He teases and I glare at him before hitting him with my purse. "I'm not, shut up! I didn't see you there. " "I know, but I expected you to jump into my arms at the sound of my voice, not get scared. " He whines with a pout and I can't help my smile at the sight of his pushed out lips. God, he's so freaking cute. "In my defence, I didn't know you were coming. " I shrug, folding my arms against my chest and he pushes his lips forward further, blinking his eyes at me. Shaking my head, I lean forward and press my lips against his. "Sorry. " I mumble and he laughs before wrapping his arms around my waist to bring me to his chest. "You tired?" He whispe
VINCENT.My eyes are wide as I stare at the woman before me, who has a smile etched on her face.Karina is here. Karina is standing right before me. Karina is in my fúcking house!"You truly will not invite me in?" Her laugh brings me out of my thoughts and I shake my head, my body turning in accord to give space to her. Her grin widens at the gesture and she moves inside, shutting the door behind her.What the fuck did you just do, Vincent!"This is such a nice place. " She comments as she stares around the house, sidestepping me to move towards the living room and I watch her. She looks just like the last time I saw her; so fucking beautiful, and she still has that look on her face–one that's capable of bringing any man to his feet, with no exception of me.The strapless short dress she has on hugs every single cur
SINCLAIR.I settle back on my seat with my arms folded against my chest, a small smile on my face as I look towards Lillian across the table."David, trust me. You do not want to do this–" Mike starts, but David is quick to cut him off. "Oh, I do, Mike and it's precisely what I'm doing. I'm sorry, but you will have to find another daughter for your son, because mine isn't attainable. "There's silence in the room with Mike's eyes on David, while David's remains on his wife and his daughter."Alright then. I shall take my leave now. " Mike raises to his feet, fixing the buttons of his jacket before looking towards me with a glare and I snort, knowing what's going through his mind and knowing exactly what the fucker will say as soon as we make through that door. Why, Mike? Shocked this happened?"Thank you for honouring my invitation, Mike and I truly hope y
