“No, what?” he tried for innocence and failed, only making himself seem more up to no good.

“No more, we’ve had enough.”

His boots thudded across the bathroom floor.

I shut my eyes and internally groaned, feeling him step up behind me.

“It’s never going to be enough.”

Two strong arms slid around my waist, locking together just above my navel. I could have stayed as we were, paused time and let all the hurt, worry, and uncertainty pause with it.

He was warm and strong—this strange man I knew nothing about but felt as if I’d know my whole life. He wasn’t safe, though. And I knew his words weren’t directly regarding sex.

“Open your eyes, Addy,” he softly intoned.

I did as he requested, being met with the reflection of us in the mirror hanging above the sink.

“What do you see?”

I saw him and all his perfection—beautiful bastard.

Dark hair was now flawlessly restyled—lashes to die for, oceanic eyes regarding me closely.

The brand on his neck stood out the most. The one beneath my eye and inked on my right arm were a sharp reminder of our differences.

“I see you. I see me.”

“You see us.”

I nodded slightly, holding his gaze in the glass. I did see us. But when we returned back—I had no idea how this would ever work.

Maybe he would get tired of me before then?

“You are truly fucking gorgeous, do you know that?” His hands flattened and slid down to my shorts.

“Zane, compliments will get you nowhere,” I huffed, trying to stop his obvious intentions.

“I wasn’t telling you that to get something. This,” he easily shook off my grip and popped the button on my pants. “Is mine whenever I want it.”

I scoffed, sucking my teeth when he slid his index finger between my swollen lips.

“You hurt, baby?” he questioned knowingly, pulling my hair to the side and planting a feather-light kiss over his hand print.

“You know its hurt.”

“Let me make it feel better.”

“Uh…”

He bent his knees, dragging my shorts and underwear down as he crouched.

“What are you doing?” I turned my head and looked at him over my shoulder.

He spread my legs apart and then ran his hands over the globes of my ass.

“So perfect,” he said more to himself than me.
