I like her a little too much.

And she’ll look good in La Perla; she deserves nothing but the best.

It’s just sex,I tell myself…we’re just fucking,but I’m afraid that if I don’t see her soon, I may just lose my mind.

I still feel fucking pissed about her leaving. We should be able to have a conversation about it.

I’m halfway through my noodle bowl, which is utterly delicious, when I get a text.

I glance at my phone and see Ariana’s name on the screen. I open my messages.

Thank you for the flowers, they’re beautiful.

I contemplate whether to reply, but I’m not playing childish games.

You’re welcome. You left in a hurry. I never meant to upset you, Ariana.

The gray bubble tells me she’s replying.

I don’t know how to do this, and I freaked out.

I rub my chin and shake my head.

When I want something, I go for it. I never intended that this is where we’d end up, that’s the truth.

Well, the ball is in your court. I’d like to continue seeing you while we’re here, but that’s up to you. Know this; you’re smart, witty, and beautiful, Ariana, and whatever happens, I enjoyed our night together immensely. Do what you want to do, always x

She doesn't reply back.

I go to the bar and down a couple of shots. Some of the ladies sitting there try to grab my attention, but I’m too pissed off to bother. I should just go and let off some steam and forget about her.

The more I try to turn my mind to something else, the more I can’t let it go.

But I have to.

She isn’t mine to have, tonight or any night.

I’d do well to remember that.

Chapter Sixteen

Ariana

“You know what I think,” Charlize says, as we tuck into the all-you-can-eat buffet. We took a cab ride to a nearby restaurant, and I’m starving, being I haven’t eaten since breakfast. “And I’ll say it again; you’re crazy not to take this opportunity to bang it out.”

I almost spit out my drink, and Imogen doesn’t hold back from snorting out laughter. I give her the stink eye.

“Banging being the operative word,” Imogen pipes up, once she’s done laughing her ass off.

“Thanks, guys, really great advice.” I roll my eyes.

Of course, they wanted all the gossip from my night of saucy sex with Lukas, and while I’m not one to kiss and tell, I had to give them something or else I’d never hear the end of it.

All Charlize really wanted to know was if Mr. Bentley was better than his son, to which I threw a pillow at her head and did not reply with an answer.

The truth is, he’s out of this freaking world. It’s the best sex I’ve ever had.

I wonder if he’s like that all the time in bed, so attentive. He’s certainly very generous with his time, and his tongue.
