Tears prick my eyes, but I won’t cry. I’ll never shed another tear over Bexley Danforth and his sweet lies.
“We’re not those people anymore, Bex.” I don’t bother to disguise my sadness.
“You’re right, we’re not.” His hand moves up, hovering precariously near the curve of my breast. People are watching. I can feel the weight of their stares. Bexley Danforth is the most popular guy in school... and I’m the girl who no longer belongs here.
A wave of emotion hits me, and I know I’m two seconds away from crying or making a break for it. But the buzz of the liquor gives me the strength to start swaying in Bexley’s arms. I look away from him, landing my glassy gaze on Ace and Michaela. Her lips part, betrayal burning in her heavily made up eyes. She’s wanted Bexley for as long as I can remember. But he’s never wanted her for anything more than a casual hook-up.
I keep my eyes fixed on the two of them as I roll and pop my hips against Bexley’s crotch. He’s rock hard, making no effort to hide how much he wants me as he grinds his cock against my ass. Desire snakes through me. I don’t want Bexley, but he’s holding me with such possession it reminds me of a certain tattooed asshole who is now watching me with pure hatred in his eyes.
Good, I hope it hurts as much as you hurt me.
Bexley lips land on my neck, but I don’t stop him. I can’t. I want Ace to feel every bit of jealousy, hurt, and dejection I felt. He sucks and licks my skin, making my traitorous body shiver.
“Fuck, Rem, do you have any idea how long I’ve waited for this? I want you so fucking much.” His hands grip my hips a little.
“Okay, ease up,” I say.
“No way, baby. I’ve waited too damn long.” He starts moving, pulling me away from the crowd until we’re secreted away in the shadows. Spinning me around, he pushes me up against the wall and cages me, his hands either side of my head.
“What the fuck, Bexley?” I hiss. “We were just dancing.” My heart crashes violently behind my ribcage. I wanted to make Ace jealous. I didn’t want... this.
“Nah, baby. You want me, I know you do.” My eyes dart around him wildly. The liquor in my blood is in full effect now, making me feel a little unsteady, and everything starts spinning.
“Let’s go back and dance,” I say, forcing a smile.
“So I’m supposed to believe you don’t want this?” He grabs my hand and shoves it to his cock. “Because I sure as fuck want you. I can’t wait to be deep inside you. It’s all I’ve ever wanted.”
Fear takes hold as I realize what a stupid mistake I made, thinking I could play with fire. Bexley Danforth doesn’t take no for an answer. Eventually he always collects what he thinks he’s owed.
And right now, his sights are set firmly on me.
Fuck.
“Bexley, you’re drunk, and so am I.” I press my hands against his chest, trying to leverage enough space to slip around him. “Let’s go back to the party.”
His hand clamps around my arm and he lowers his face to mine, forcing me flat against the wall. “I don’t think so, Rem,” he says in a low voice. “We have unfinished business.”
Chapter Fifteen
Ace
Michaela’s fingernails run over my abs and scratch down the skin to my waistband. Her lame ass attempt at seduction makes my skin crawl, and I wish she’d just claw my cock off so there is nothing of me left to rub herself up against. How any of the guys around here find her attractive, I have no fucking clue.
“We’re done,” I say, taking her shoulders in my hands and pushing her away.
She clings to me like a koala would a tree.
It’s not cute.
“I said we’re done here.”
“But, Ace,” she whines in her high-pitched, annoying voice.
“But nothing.” I’m a little more forceful this time and successfully shove her from my body.
I have just watched Bexley pull Remi into the shadows of the pool house, and like fuck am I allowing him any more time with her than he’s already had. He touched something that belongs to me. He kissed what’s mine. For that, he’s going to pay. But it won’t be tonight. I’ll let him stew for a bit.
Her scream rings out in the air, and I take off running. Only when I turn the corner to where they disappeared, what I find has my eyes bulging.
