The closer I get, the more the knocking assaults my ears. Shit, am I about to be arrested? No, they’d just smash the bloody door down, wouldn’t they?

“Open up Princess.”

Stifling a yawn with my hands, my head still fuzzy from this abrupt wake up call, I unlock the door and open it a notch to peek through.

Keller stands there, his hair styled the same as last night. There’s a slight darkness pooled under his eyes like he hadn’t slept. His black hoodie hugs his bulging biceps. And those damn gray sweatpants. If I wasn’t so angry, I’d be salivating at them.

“What do you want, Keller?” I snap.

“You gunna let me in or what, Baby?” His husky tone sends electricity straight to my pussy. She clearly hasn’t woken up to get on the same page as my brain yet.

I don’t have the energy to fight with him right now. If the continuous door knocking is any indication, he isn’t going to piss off until I let him in.

Without a word, I swing open the door and gesture for him to come past, holding the door open, and giving him the most sarcastic grin I can muster. He barges straight past me, his eyes rake up and down my body, and the cocky prick licks his lips and waltzes into the living room.

I stomp into the room and stand by the entrance, hands on hips, glaring at him.

“Late night Champ?” Jealousy laces my tone. I can’t help it. I can only blame my Scorpio tendencies.

“Fuck Baby, you are so hot when you’re jealous and angry. ”

I see red. “Are you serious right now, Keller? Who is she?” I spit, not holding back anymore. Physically pressing my feet on the floor to stop myself from going over to him.

“Well Princess, if you’re referring to those articles, a little birdie has told me you’ve been reading, that woman would be my PR manager, Stacey. She needed a lift, so I gave her one. Simple as that.”

I believe him, despite my deep-rooted trust issues, every fiber of my being believes him.

“You wanna talk about why you stormed off before even speaking to me about it? Fuck, I’m no relationship expert here, but I don’t think that’s the way we handle shit like this. You near on have a stalker ex, Sienna. I was losing my mind worrying about you. Luckily Grayson had Maddie’s number and managed to ease my worries. You don’t run from me, there’s no point. I’ll always find you.”

He says this last part as he takes a step towards me, and my heart mends with every move he makes. I back up until I’m met with the wall. His hands slam against it, caging me in against his body, his warm breath beating down on my face.

“I shouldn’t have left. I saw the pictures and my heart shattered. After what happened with Jamie, I feel like I’m just waiting for everything to go up in flames around us.” A single tear rolls down my cheek as I explain.

Maddie clears her throat from behind us, which makes me jump. She offers a quick smile and wave as she maneuvers around, straight into the kitchen, putting the kettle on. She’s trying to look busy, but I know full well she’s spying out of the corner of her eye.

“I have something for you, Princess,” he says as he starts lowering his sweatpants. I gasp in horror, grabbing his hands to stop him, knowing Maddie is only meters away watching. Ushering him to the bedroom, his delicious gray sweatpants still hang below his ass. I had to stop him from giving Maddie the full show of his downstairs. I can hear her chuckling echoing through the apartment.

A mischievous glint in his eyes flutters as he pulls down his boxers as soon as I slam my bedroom door shut.

I grab his hand to stop him. “For fuck’s sake, Keller. Do you really think I’m in the mood for that right now? I’m so pissed off I don’t even want to look at you, let alone fuck you!” I’m trying to keep my eyes from traveling to his cock.

A deep chuckle escapes his lips as he shakes my hand off his forearm with ease, continuing to slip his boxers down, his eyes never breaking contact.

God, no matter how hard I try, this man just turns me on, even if I want to punch him in the jaw at the same time. He stands there in all his glory. A plastic wrap covers the area just above his public bone and I only notice once I stop ogling his cock.

He slowly removes the clear tape surrounding the plastic. This man has an obsession with tattoos, I’m sure.

Taking a step back, my eyes focus on the script of black ink and almost bulge out of their sockets. I cannot believe what I’m seeing. Resting just above his cock, in a beautiful dark font reads “PROPERTY OF SIENNA”. It’s delicate and beautiful, which makes it stand out like a sore thumb against his array of black angry looking tattoos.

“W-why would you do that? You do realize that’s permanent, right? After last night, who knows if we are actually even together anymore!” I say, trying to keep the desire off my face. The man can read me like a book. But I want to mess with him a little.

“Branding myself with your name wasn’t enough?” His brow cocks up as he speaks.

“It’s there in ink. I belong to you. Forever. Be angry all you want, even better. How about you fuck me like you hate me, then I will fuck you like I love you? How does that sound?”

He loves me?

“You don’t love me, Keller.” The words burn my throat as I speak.He feels this too?
