Chloe decided to ignore the comment. "I didn't know that you were coming," she said. "And you didn't tell me that you were.""Evan didn't tell me about it until yesterday morning. And I decided to attend so I could surprise you."Chloe gave him a small smile. "Well, I don't mean to be rude, but your surprise kinda sucks.... No offense""Ouch. I'm taking offense" said Matthew and clutched his chest dramatically. "That hurt.. You're a mean girl...""Okay sorry about that" Chloe replied."Sorry can't fix it.""What can?"He appeared to give her question some thought before he replied."Well, for starters, you could dance with me," he said and extended his hand to her. Chloe chuckled and took it. Soon she felt her body against his as he wrapped his hand around her waist and began to move to the tune of the music."So, how have you been?" Matthew whispered in her ear. "I'm sorry I haven't really reached out to you. I have been super busy, but I sure have missed you... A lot""I completely
“Thank you. I’m sorry about…that…” Her words dried up on her tongue as she met a unique gaze. Startling and beautiful.... The man she had been thinking about a few seconds ago was standing in front of her."Timothy!" she said.“I’ve heard of Cinderella showing up late to the ball dressed in a beautiful gown. But not running away from it... Well, except at midnight and it's not midnight yet.” He held the clutch out to her, arching an eyebrow.“I think you need an upgrade in fairy godmothers.” he added.“Yes, well, Cinderella was high-maintenance,” she murmured, accepting the clutch.A sharp bark of laughter escaped him, and from the slight widening of his eyes and the surprise flashing through the dark depths, it seemed the crack of amusement caught him off guard. “And you’re not high-maintenance?” he asked, slipping his hands into his tuxedo pants.The movement opened his black jacket, offering a glimpse of his white shirt stretched across a broad, powerful chest and flat abdomen. He
Amidst her embarrassment, Chloe found herself blushing like a teenager. "Well, you didn't seem to notice all these while we have been standing here talking" she replied, and regretted the comment immediately, realizing that it sounded like she had wanted his compliment all along.... And the pitiable and annoying thing was that deep down, she knew that she had."Who said that I didn't notice." Timothy replied. He stepped closer... Too close... And enough for her to hold her breath. The action still didn't stop his perfume from drifting up her nostrils. Damn, Timothy could be annoying, but she couldn't deny the fact that he was sexy as hell."I did notice how beautiful you are." he continued. "It was the first thing I noticed when I saw you this evening. I couldn't ignore you even if I wanted to. I always notice you even when I don't want to. And with a dress like that, I have to admit that it's impossible to not notice you... I'm sure everyone out there did"Drat! Chloe thought. Damn t
He took a quick glance around. No one was really watching him, he thought, and the most important parts of the party were already done. He was sure that no one would notice or miss his presence at the party since they all seemed to be engaged doing one thing or the other."Come with me" he said, gesturing with his head as he stood, and together, they made for the nearest exit door.___________They were walking through a glass-encased atrium at the very top of the building and neither of them spoke. Soon they arrived in front of a wall of glass with the city spread out below them. The view was simply breathtaking. Across the bay, the city sparkled like precious gems tossed on an endless blanket of black velvet. Dazzling and magnificent."Wow." said Dora."It’s something, isn’t it?" replied Evan. He knew exactly why they were there, but he couldn't seem to make a move. Dora noticed, because she suddenly took his hands and placed them on the glass above his head. With a smile, she slowl
"Evan?" Dora called. "I asked if I did something wrong"Evan slowly raised his head, but he didn't turn to look at her. He just couldn't. "No you didn't" he replied stiffly. "This isn't about you""Then what is it about?" she pressed."We shouldn't have.... I shouldn't have" he paused, his shoulders heaving as he finally met her gaze. "I'm married Dora. I don't know if you were aware but I should have... I should have stopped you. I shouldn't have come up here with you in the first place"Dora shrugged. "So you are married... So what? If you are worried about people finding out, then don't worry. I'm not a snitch and I do not kiss and tell. No one will find out. I'm good at keeping secrets like that..."When he didn't reply, she added "You can come over to my place if you want... So you can spend the night. We both know it would do you some good. Besides, I know enough to know that if you were... Happily married, you wouldn't be at this party alone or up here with me for that matter..
"You are kinda freaking me out" said Christina. "But I'm glad that I came too. I was sitting at home and I was thinking that I should be here with you. I know that I have been very horrible to you lately and honestly I was getting worried that you would soon be fed up with me and leave. I'm sorry... I know that I still have a lot to work on but I'm willing to try and I want you to be there with me.... Just as you have always been. You were right too, I think the only person worried about people talking about me and the baby was just me""Forget about that right now. I'm not leaving you.... Ever" Evan assured her. "And while you are here, what do you say we forget about everything else and enjoy the party"_________"So you are leaving....tomorrow" said Chloe as Timothy walked her to her car after the party. She tried to sound casual, like she wasn't affected by the news in any way, but she wasn't sure she did a good job at hiding how she felt, so she kept her eyes on the road, refusin
She leaned even closer, making sure to crush her breast against his chest so he was sure about exactly what she was offering. "Who said I want you to stop at just kissing me?" she asked, her eyes glittering from the lights... Daring him... Seducing him....She moved her arms from his waist to his neck and pulled his head down to hers. She kissed him passionately, hungrily. Like she had the night they met at bar. Remembering that, remembering how that night had turned out, he pulled back. “Are you sure you really want to do this?”She chuckled. “What are you so worried about?”The truth was that he was the one who was worried. Worried that it would be harder for him to let her go if he didn't stop kissing her. She had already done enough to him....not on purpose... But he could barely stop thinking about her. He wanted her to be with him. He wanted a real relationship... A family... Kids.Kids? Dear god! His mind was wandering. And it was such a shame that he wanted all of this with a
He was pumping into her hand as his tongue trailed a hot path down her skin.“Yeah, like that,” he groaned and nipped the skin of her collarbone with his teeth. "Just like that baby. Don’t stop"Chloe shivered and clenched her teeth as she fought to hold in the moan of pleasure that soared through her body. This was just sex. It wasn’t some epiphany that would change the way she viewed relationships or even how she felt about Timothy. It wouldn't change him leaving or anything else but oh God she didn't want to stop. Couldn't even if she wanted to. She needed his clothes off and moved her hands from his rigid length up to his chest. When she was about to push his jacket over his shoulders, his hands stopped her and Chloe looked up to find his gaze on hers. Before she could speak he scooped her up, carrying her through the doors and into the bedroom.While he took his time laying her down on the bed, his hands moved furiously to remove her dress. Chloe was just about to lift her leg to
