shone, I realized I’d gotten pulled in. It was beyond emotionally attached. I’d begun to feel responsible for Anna’s happiness. I wanted to make her happy…bring her back to life…help her find love again—with me.
When I briefly closed my eyes with the immense fear of what was happening, her face was on the back of my eyelids. Her expression when she orgasmed by my hand, her expression as she slept, her expression after our first kiss, her smile when she put the note on my truck. All of it flashed behind closed eyes.
“Adam. Think. Don’t do this. We can protect her. Walk away if you have to.”
With a small sarcastic chuckle rumbling through my throat, I shook my head—I was past that. I sat with the worst ache in my gut for forty-five minutes until Miranda told me he left—alone, then I put the truck in drive and headed home quite certain that sleep would never find me. Sadly, my heart was feeling something it never had either.
Chapter 13—TJ
When the door was unlocked and opened right up, I was not surprised. The fucking construction worker didn’t have a key to lock the dead bolt and he left her completely unprotected.
The house smelled the same. After checking every single trashcan for a condom or condom wrapper, I was convinced they hadn’t had sex. If there was one thing I could smell…it was sex. Holding my nose up in the air, I inhaled a long, slow breath as I strolled into her bedroom. Her tiny body lay all curled up beneath the covers.
The blood in my veins stewed when I saw the opposite side of the bed crumpled from where someone had laid. Slowly, I stalked toward the bed, leaning down inhaling the air around her. I could smell her arousal and my cock twitched.
Moving away from the bed, I unzipped my pants wanting to taste her but settling for coming near her. I gripped myself strongly, beginning to work my dick up and down dryly as my thoughts ventured to the construction worker touching her.
My eyes studied her parted lips and the small but beautiful cleavage peaking out as she lay on her side. Both her mouth and her breasts were places I would eventually slide my cock. My stomach tightened as the pull deep in my nuts began to heighten.
There was no point in waiting any longer to make her mine. Tonight was an option, but I needed her unsoiled and the only contamination of her would be mine. Almost eleven months I’d waited to violate her and there was no fucking way another man would swoop in here and get her first.
As come inched it’s way up my cock, I watched her and thought about the day I would bury myself deep inside her and it was my name she would cry out.
Chapter 14—Anna
When I rolled over in bed, I smiled when I got a slight whiff of Adam where he’d laid. Even though this was the bed I shared with Michael, I knew without a doubt, he was in heaven looking down on me giving me a thumbs up.
Adam was right. In my head, I was moving on because I knew that was best and that I needed to do so, when in reality, I was stuck—paralyzed in time. Fixated with memories that had shaped who I’d become. Breaking the cycle was crucial, and when I made the bed for the first time, I knew in my heart it was the day of many firsts.
After working for two solid hours, I showered, threw on my jean shorts and a long-sleeved T-shirt and walked outside. A chill was in the air and I smiled when I spotted him across the street. As I nearly skipped the distance, a cat whistle rang out only broadening my grin and causing Adam to turn around.
The desperate look in his eyes was unfamiliar to me and my heart stuttered as I got closer. He didn’t look well—dark circles beneath his eyes and bloodshot centers. What had happened after our night together? Why was he upset?
“Adam? Are you alright?”
I reached up tenderly, laying the back of my hand over his forehead checking for fever.
His throat jetted out as he swallowed, his eyes skimming over every inch of me.
