It takes her a few seconds.
I look up, loving the adorable way her brows draw together and a crease forms in the center of her forehead when she’s concentrating.
Presley: White. Creepy. Kind of skeletal.
I silently chuckle.
Me: Sounds like a fucking psychopath.
She reads the message, looking visibly upset.
She doesn’t like that I called myself a psychopath.
Of course, she also doesn’t know I’m the masked man.
Me: Did he come near the house?
Presley: He headed toward the house. And I’m pretty sure he was on my porch before that.
She’s right. I was on the porch, then stood beneath her bedroom window before walking toward the house.
I couldn’t help it. Her fear excites me.
My cock throbs inside my pants.
It excites me almost as much as the memory of her whimpers and moans in the bookstore.
Me: Did he threaten you?
Presley: No.
Me: Did he try to hurt you?
She pauses a moment before typing.
Presley: No.
She looks at Penny, then begins typing again.
Presley: He just watched me.
Just.
Interesting choice of words, little bookworm.
Me: Are you scared?
Three dots bounce, disappear, then reappear again.
Presley: A little.
My cock twitches.
Fuck.
I shouldn't like that as much as I do.
But we've already established that whatever normal moral boundaries exist inside other people don't work particularly well inside me.
