AmyI woke up with a light head. I willed myself not to think anything about Jace so that I can focus on my work. I realized that I had lagged behind on the book I was editing. I poured myself some coffee and sat in front of my laptop. I am surprised when I finish the book before one. I haven't eaten anything sensible since morning. I last ate a decent meal at Jace's house. Ugh... There he goes again. He just can't get out of my mind. I can't stop thinking about him. I miss him now. I turn off the laptop and go to the kitchen. I try not to remember that Jace was kissing me on that kitchen counter, but it's hopeless. Jace has probably done something to me. I have never been possessed by someone like this. I have to use possessed because I nolonger have any control over my own feelings. There isn't enough groceries in the kitchen for me to make a decent meal. I hate this day.While I am getting angry at my kitchen, someone knocks at my door. I am not expecti

AmyI am so nervous when I get out of the kitchen. My body is still excited from the recent touches that Jace has been giving me. My legs are wobbly and I am slightly giddy. I wanted to ignore the call and go on with the Jace's rewarding and all that he has in store for me, but mom hasn't called me for a while. She could have something important to tell me."Hello, Amy. I'm sorry if I am disturbing you, switie," her voice is sweet and apologetic as ever."No, mom. It's fine. I wasn't that busy," I lie. I was actually very busy. Oh, and I have a man in my kitchen. I wonder what mom would say about that."I have a work seminar on Wednesday. It is going to be held in town where you are, so I want to visit you after," she says."That would be great, mom. I really miss you," I tell her."I miss you too, dear. That is why I can't miss this chance to see you in your new apartment," she says." Me too. I have a lot of things that I want to ta

Amy I am so anxious to when my mom calls me telling me that she is already in town. The seminar is supposed to be ending at five in the evening. She says she will come to my apartment immediately after. I am so excited and nervous. I am just a bundle of nerves and I am afraid I will mess up. I have everything ready for her. I have already cleaned up and organized the entire apartment for her arrival. I really want to show my mom that I am now a grown and independent woman. I just want her to be proud of me. The knock on the door gets me to halt in my tracks. I am in the kitchen getting everything ready with the meal. I have already finished preparing and the only thing left is setting up the table and serving. I ran hastily to the door and take a deep breath before opening it. I don't want to appear a nervous mess when my mom sees me, but I am just too excited. "Mom!" I cry out as I engulf her in a tight bear hug. "Amy, sweetie," she smiles sweetly at me and the entire room heats u

AmyHaving Jace on top of me in my bed while my mom is asleep on the couch just an earshot away makes me feel so dirty. I just sneaked a man into my room in the middle of the night. Jace quickly removes his shirt and discards it on the floor. His hard muscles stretch out of his body in a sexy masculine way. I bet he works out every day. My fingers itch to draw patterns on his hair dusted chest"Seeing something you like?" he raises an eyebrow at me. I smile at him as he leans in closer toward me so I can have a better look. I run my fingers across his hard chest and sexy abs. He has a scar across his chest on the breast where his heart rests. It looks like a slash or scratch, I can't tell. I trace it with my fingers and place my palm on it to feel his heart bit. It looks like someone wanted to pull out his heart. He places his hand over mine and I look at him."My heart beats for you, baby. I don't think it could still beat if I lose you," his voice is raw with

AmyAfter mother and Jace leave, my apartment suddenly feels deadly quiet. I frown at the lonely feeling that starts creeping up my skin. I turn on my laptop and start with the assignments from work. I try hard to concentrate but my mind still drifts to Jace. I wonder what he is doing right now. Did he go back home. He is probably telling Sophia that I will be there this weekend. I bet she is giving him her cheeky smile and Jace mentally roles his eyes. I can't seem to bring myself to the reality that I am alone in my quiet apartment where I am supposed to be putting all my concentration to my work. What happened to me? My future and my work have always been the only things that mattered most. But after Jace, nothing seems to have the similar importance it had before. I am tempted to send him a text but he just left. He would probably think of me as the clingy type of girlfriend. I force myself to work on my assignments until four o'clock in the evening. I get up
