“Knox, please,” she says through labored breaths.
All is right in the world. The stars have aligned. I see fireworks. Every cliche thing you’ve ever heard about and read about, it’s all true. The moment I’m connected with Sophia in a way I’ve never been with her before, I realize that she’s ruined me for any other woman.
I know why this was a mistake. Because now that I’ve felt what it’s like to be with Sophia, I’ll never be satisfied with anyone else again.
Chapter 8
Sophia
Knox Kingston is everything I never knew I was missing in my life. He’s the last piece of the puzzle. It’s a shame that I feel this connected to someone that I’ll never have. Not fully, anyway. Knox might think that I’m his, but he’ll never be mine.
I can’t dwell on what’s going to happen later, because the only thing I can think about is how amazing it feels to be with him even though I know this is a mistake. It’s only going to break my heart, but I’ve never had self-control when it comes to Knox. I’ll take him any way I can get him, even if it’s only for one night.
It’s never felt like this with anyone else, and I’d be lying if I said that didn’t scare the shit out of me.
“Fuck, Sophia. I’m coming.” He moans, his thrusts moving faster.
It feels like he couldn’t possibly go any deeper than where he is now––he’s hitting me in places I didn’t even know existed until now.
“I’m coming too,” I say through labored breathing.
The tension between us is building. I’m on the cusp of falling over the edge. It feels almost as if I’m bursting as my body convulses around him.
He leans down, capturing my lips with his again, and his kiss takes my breath away.
Kissing Knox is like nothing I've ever experienced before. I would sell my soul just to kiss him again after today.
The both of us come crashing down together, breathing heavily, his forehead pressed against mine. Neither one of us is speaking because we don’t want to be ripped from this moment.
It doesn’t take long for the anxiety to creep in, and for me to get inside my own head.
Knox pulls away from me and I instantly miss his warmth. I watch him get up from the bed to get his shorts and I begin to grab my clothes that are strung haphazardly around the bed.
“Listen, Knox,” I start to say as I’m pulling my shirt over my head.
“Don’t say anything, Sophia. I think we both got caught up. This clearly wasn’t a good idea. Truth is, I’m not in the right frame of mind right now.”
I can almost see the walls he has built up rising up around him, and I feel the anger rising because this was all his idea. He wanted this so bad. He said all the right things. He clouded my judgment.
“This has been a great night, let’s not ruin it with the truth,” I snap
I stomp off before he can respond, taking the stairs two at a time, trying my hardest to get away from him as quickly as possible.
I fly out of the basement, rushing upstairs to my room before there's a chance to run into anyone else. The last thing I want to do is try to explain why I’m leaving Knox’s room at this hour of the morning.
Once I’m safely inside my room, I turn the lock and lean back against the door before sliding to my butt. The sobs come out as soon as I hit the floor. My whole body starts shaking and it truly feels like my heart is breaking apart.
When I’m finally able to pull myself together and climb into bed, I do nothing but toss and turn all night long. I realize I didn’t get any sleep when the sunlight filters in through the curtains a few hours later.
Sighing, I grab my phone, seeing that I’m up thirty minutes before my alarm.
“Great,” I mutter.
I turn it off before grabbing some clothes and heading to the shower. This day is going to require a lot of caffeine.
In less than an hour, I’m dressed and ready for work, hoping like hell I can manage to get out of the house without running into the ice king that is Knox Kingston.
“Hey, Soph.” I jump at the sound of Kinsley when I shut my bedroom door.
