This is a sincere laugh. A real one.
“Yeah, we can’t have that. Give me a second; I’ll return to my usual asshole self.”
“You do that, sir, you do that.”

LANDON
Song: Rosenfeld – Dangerous Woman
So, you remember when I had this theory that Lexi is a witch? Well, I am pleased to say, my theory was correct.
Because nothing else could explain why I couldn’t let her out of my car for nearly an hour since we parked in front of her apartment. We have been sitting here, surrounded by the night and yellow cabs driving around, wrapped up in one another.
Nothing about tonight feels like it’s just sex. Absolutely nothing.
This little girl, little vixen, has cast a spell on me, making me behave like an irrational, lovesick idiot. I am thirty-five years old, for Pete’s sake, and this tiny twenty-one-year-old has me wrapped around her pinky in a matter of one day.
Okay, she has been drawing me in for a month, tightening her stronghold a bit more each day, but nothing prepared me to feel what I feel.
And that’s her.
She feels fucking phenomenal in my arms, on my tongue, and on my cock. I can’t let her go. I can’t bear to be away from her for the next few hours until I see her in the office at her usual spot.
By the way, just how the hell am I supposed to keepthisa secret in Fashion Linc? How can I not touch her when my whole body demands it?
We have barely said anything to each other since our explosive sex and her words about falling for me. I took it as a joke, but deep inside, something stirred. Something tugged on my heart when she said we can’t have that happening.
It’s what I want, right? I don’t want her love. I just want her body. But then why does that feel like the biggest lie of my life.
God, I am so messed up. I might as well really be a soulless, shameless demon because I want this little girl to fall in love with me. I want her heart, her mind, and her body, yet I am not willing to give her a piece of mine.
I can’t.
I won’t.
“I should go,” she quietly whispers into my chest, and I grudgingly ease my hold on her. Lexi fixes her clothes and hair and moves off my lap. Just before I think she will leave without saying anything, she leans in and gives me a sweet, shy kiss on the cheek. “Good night, Landon.”
I draw her closer by her neck because fuck sweet kisses. I want it all, and I take it. I slam my lips to hers and take her last breath away, making her live off of me alone.
“Sweet dreams, my little kitten,” I say, and she pushes the door open with a mouthwatering smile on her face.
Damn it, maybe I can give her anything after all. Even myself.
I stay outside her apartment after she is long gone, thinking and analyzing this whole day.
I was ready to give her up, I was ready to sign her resignation letter and set her free, but then she came in to say goodbye, andI snapped. I could not under any circumstances let her leave me without at least one full taste.
Or so I thought…
Because I should have known better. I should have known that one taste would never be enough with Alexandra Ellis. She was sent to this earth to make my life hell; she was sent to be my penance for all my sins.
I knew all that, and yet I still couldn’t resist her.
I signal for my driver to get going, and we drive off with my mind full of confusion but zero regrets.
The sex is mind-blowing, and I still have so much in store for Lexi. All I need to do is keep my stone-cold heart tucked away. Keep Lexi miles away from it and from bringing her hammer down to it to set cracks in the stone façade.
