It was the talking between rounds. It was her bringing my game up again: “tell me something no one else knows about you.”
I didn’t barely sleep last night only because I was too busy fucking Eloise LeBlanc’s goddamn brains out in every conceivable position, and every—and I do mean every—hole.
It was because we were talking, sharing things. Shit, I told that girl stuff I haven’t ever told anyone. You’d think that would scare the fuck out of me, but it doesn’t.
It feels pretty damn good.
Outside, I inhale the dewy morning mist. I think back to my final memory of last night, before I fell asleep. Eloise was already out, wrapped naked in my arms with her back to my chest.
That’s when I leaned down. And I have no fucking clue why I said it, or where it came from. It just fell out.
You’ll always be mine.
My ego makes me wait a week. Seeking her out or calling her before that seems kinda desperate and pathetic. But finally I find myself standing outside her dorm room and knocking on the door.
Shit. It’s Demi who answers.
“What do you want?” she says with a glare.
“Hello to you too, Demiana.”
Her face sours. Looking past her, I realize she’s not alone in the room as Bang Jin-ho, who’s a member of Para Bellum that my brother runs, nods at me.
“What’s up, Jin-ho.”
“Alistair,” he murmurs, buttoning his shirt back up.
“Well?” Demi, who is clearly not in the Alistair Black Fan Club, growls at me.
“I’m looking for Eloise.”
Her mouth thins. “Oh really.”
“Yes.”
“She’s not here.”
“Where might she be?”
“Home,” she shrugs. “She had a family thing back in Paris.”
My brow knits. “Got it. Do you have her cell?—”
“Dude, you broke into our fucking room. I’m not giving you her number.”
I glance past her to Jin-ho. He just spreads his arms and shrugs.
“Okay, well, would you tell her I stopped by when she gets?—”
“Nope.”
Demi slams the door in my face.
I exhale slowly as I scowl, turn, and walk away.
See, this is why I don’t do serious dating.
It’s two weeks later when a small shape darts in front of me as I’m leaving the gym.
