really looking for a relationship right now.”
Perhaps if I take her , it will take my mind off Carla, who I can never be with. I need to move on. Have I got it in me to move on right now though? What the hell. “Jacky you know what? Let’s go to Kenza tonight and have a damn good time.”
H er tears miraculously disappear. “You mean that? You’re seriously going to take me out on a date?”
Standing, I back up and sit on my desk. “ Yes,” I whisper, wondering what the hell I’m doing. I need a distraction, but I’m not sure Jacky is the kind of distraction I need or want.
Damn Ruben!
Chapter 11
Carla
Trying to get the spreadsheet data together for Ramon is easier said than done when my mind keeps wandering to Sebastian. I haven’t seen him for close to a week, which is normal, but after the embrace we shared, my longing to be back in his arms is tenfold.
No one has ever made me feel the way Sebastian does. With just one look , my panties are wet and my core throbs to be filled by him.
Having told Ramon to leave things for a few weeks to see how everything goes was stupid of me. Instead , I could be with Sebastian right now, seeing where the thing between us goes. I have the feeling that once I get with Sebastian he won’t let me go. I’ve seen the possessive look on his face when he thinks no one is watching and just knowing he’s kept his zipper up since we met does things to my insides.
“Earth to Carla,” Ram on says.
I press my hand against my chest in fright. “Where the hell did you come from?” I must have been so lost in my daydream about Sebastian that I hadn’t heard the apartment door open.
“Sebastian,” Ramon says rubbing at his temples. It was a bit unnerving that Ramon could read my mind so easily. “Look I know you feel as though you owe me for helping you out when you arrived in Lexington, but you don’t. Noah is your brother, which automatically means I help. In fact, I’d have helped you regardless.”
He crouches down beside me as I spin slightly on the chair to face him before he takes my hands into his. His eyes are solemn as he rubs my hand with his fingers. “I asked you for twelve months to help me out,” he shakes his head to stop me from interrupting, “but when I asked that of you, my brother wasn’t in the equation, you hadn’t even met. I know you said you wanted to carry on like we are for a few weeks, but are you sure you still want to? Because I’ll understand and even talk to Sebastian to smooth the way if that’s what you want. You’re a good person Carla and so is my brother.”
I want to jump up and down and say ‘yes please talk to Sebastian and tell him our relationship isn’t the kind he thinks it is,’ but something is holding me back. I think it’s fear, but I can’t be sure or even what the fear would be of. Fear of Sebastian rejecting me, which I don’t think will happen, but I can’t shake it, and fear of the unknown, which makes my stomach churn.
“I’m scared, Ramon. What if he doesn’t want me? Or what if he only wants one thing from me?”
“Then I’ll beat the shit out of him.”
Pulling my hands free of Ramon’s, I glare at him while he laughs, but when he realizes I’m serious, the laughter dies.
“Sorry Carla, but are you serious? Yes, my brother wants to get in your panties,” he cringes, “but he wants more than that from you. Sebastian has never gone, um, too long without before and from what he’s said he’s not been with anyone since he met you. That fact alone should tell you something. You won’t know unless you give yourself a chance with him, and I promise to beat the shit out of him if he doesn’t treat you like a princess.”
He makes me chuckle. “Princess, huh? I’m afraid I left my crown in Canada.”
“As you’re such a smart ass , I think I’m going to take you out tonight to Kenza. Ruben rang and asked us to head over there. Initially I told him we’d pass, but I think
