NATHANShe's still there, trying to pretend she cares about him. Sometimes it's even convincing. But I know you, Collins. I know that's not where you want to be."Nathan? Are you okay?" Diana appears by my side."Yes, I'm sorry for leaving you.""You didn't seem well.""It was just a little tiredness. But everything's fine.""That's good. I have to say, I'm surprised to find you alone here. Seeing Nathan Ryan without a date is quite shocking. The media must be gnawing their nails to find out what's behind it.""Who said I'm alone? I thought we..." She laughs."I was starting to think it was strange you hadn't made any of your bold proposals to me, Ryan.""Well, I can do better..." I approach to whisper in her ear."Mr. Ryan." Kate interrupts us from behind me, I turn to face her. I smile at her and raise a finger, asking for a minute. I turn my attention back to Diana."Well, if you accept... we can leave here, and I can find an amazing place to reminisce about old times," I whisper.

NATHAN"Why are we here, Nathan?" she asks as I park in front of the hotel where I brought her the first time we met."Because we are.""Are you trying to emotionally manipulate me?""I know you, girl. So you know that's not my intention." Her phone vibrates again. The idiot must be calling her for the hundredth time."Turn off that crap," I say before getting out of the car.She follows me to the elevator."Ryan... I think it's best if I leave.""You're staying here.""Why?""It's the only way to make sure he's far away from you.""That's ridiculous. Are you planning on keeping me here forever?""It's not a bad idea.""You've lost your mind.""Stop talking." I can't think straight. My head is a mess.I open the door to the suite, enter, and pour a drink. She stands still."Sit down," I command. She sighs but sits."Tell me what to do to make you understand?" she asks, staring at the floor."What do you want me to understand?""That I'm not going to do this anymore. That I'm only near

NATHAN "What's wrong with good old casual sex? Why complicate everything?" I question."I don't think all women can have sex without involving emotions, bro. But your case is more than complicated, Ryan. First, what was going through your mind when you decided to have sex with a virgin? Then you let her get too close, working with you. In a way, you let yourself get involved and deserve what she's doing to you.""Damn! I don't even know if I'm in love with her.""You miss her, almost hit a guy that night at the club, what is that besides jealousy? I had never seen you in that state before. If you're not in love, then what?""I just don't want anyone messing with what's mine.""Yes, you and your control issues. I think that must be one more reason why you won't work out. Women don't like to be treated like objects.""It's not objectification, it's just care, I want to protect her. I'm not that kind of guy. I'm not insecure, and certainly, not a jerk who wants to use her. I just can't

KATEI knock on the door of the room. Still confused. What did John come to do here? Heavens! And why did he tell my dad he was my boyfriend? I haven't accepted his proposal yet. Is he trying to pressure me? I didn't need another problem. I just wanted to get away from everything. Forget everything.The doorknob turns, and soon he's in front of me. Holy shit! Impossible. I can't believe he's here, and shit, like this. I swallow hard, my eyes stopping at the part where the towel is attached to his waist, blinking as he runs another towel through his hair. The only thing I can do is turn around, but he stops me, holding onto my arm." Not here!" I say with my eyes closed, trying not to explode and scream, feeling the anger heating my body."Come in. Let's talk.""No. No! How many times do I have to say it?""I came here to talk to you.""We have nothing more to talk about.""Come in, Kate.""Let me go." I stare at his hand holding my wrist."I promise it will be the last time. Just let

KATEAfter accompanying my father to Mrs. Berkeley's house, I returned home alone. I had to invent a story to explain about my supposed boyfriend, it was embarrassing. So, it's good that he doesn't show up again. I finish preparing dinner after taking a long bath. My father hasn't arrived yet, it's taking him a while, it's strange for someone who usually has dinner early like him.Someone clears their throat behind me, giving me a scare, I hold a scream in my throat. I turn around, and Nathan is standing in my kitchen, in my house. Oh my God!"What the hell are you thinking? You can't come here!" I go to the window, to make sure my father isn't coming."I thought I could come for dinner. After all, I told your dad that I'm your boyfriend.""Are you crazy? You can't enter someone's house like this. Go away before my dad arrives.""The door was open. Are you cooking?" He asks, looking at my apron."I should call the police. It's not a good idea to be here when my dad arrives, Ryan. Espe

KATE"If you don't change that regretful look on your face, I won't touch you," he says, sitting on the couch. I take off my jacket and throw it on the floor."I want...""What?""I want you to touch me in every possible way. But, you know, I... I've been with someone else," I say. He closes his eyes, squeezing them as if feeling physical pain."Yes, and I hate that. Why? Why did you do that?""I wanted to," he breathes deeply, pressing his fingers against his forehead with a look of anger. "But I guess a part of me believed it would help me forget you. And if it makes you feel better... I thought of you, even unintentionally." I move closer, wrapping my arms around his neck and straddling him. "Don't you mind?""Yes, I do care... but I've been with women who have done much worse than sleeping with two guys in a week.""I guess I didn't need to hear that.""I used to be much worse than I am now, beautiful.""That's how you called me when you first talked to me.""Back then, I didn't k

KATEI get up, gather my scattered clothes, and put on my jeans. I overslept. I have to go back home."What are you doing?" he asks drowsily."I have to go back home.""Now?""Yeah.""Are you kidding? It's late.""You can go back to sleep.""You won't.""I will.""Why?""My...""Your?""Nothing." He's going to tease me again."Your father?""Don't be stupid." He gets up, letting the sheet slide off, completely naked. Then he walks towards me, stopping in front of me with his messy hair. God! It's hard to concentrate."What would your father say if he knew what we did here?" he asks, crossing his arms over his broad, muscular chest."It's more about what he would do. He would probably use the shotgun that's on the shelf in his office.""He has a gun... thanks for letting me know." We laugh. What a wonderful smile."I really have to go because he thinks I'm sleeping in my room right now, and I really don't want to have to explain to him that I was having sex with my boss.""Stay." He pu

KATE"You're crazy! What the hell is going on in your head?"" 'It was nice seeing you again, Kate?' ""Shut up, you idiot.""Why are you angry? Should I be angry too? 'It was great seeing you'? And what does 'old friend' mean?""Never tell anyone that we're dating. I feel disgusted with myself when you say that.""I just wanted to make it clear that you're with me." At least he didn't use the word "mine" this time. "Disgust? How should I feel about that?""What I'm saying is that when I say you're my boss, you can't immediately say we have an intimate relationship. Because it makes me look like the slut who's fucking the boss. And, by the way, we're not dating or anything.""You agreed to give it a try.""On my terms. Do I have to spell it out for you?""You're annoying.""And you're an imbecile. Acting like I'm a piece of meat.""You're not going to tell me who he is?""I already said he's a friend!""No. You said 'old friend.' I know exactly when that term is used.""When you have

KATEFor one single day, I feel like everything is in its rightful place. I don't need to worry about practically anything, except for John's persistent messages. On that night when Ryan pulled me away from dinner, I made up an excuse saying that he needed my help to urgently resolve work matters. I'm not sure if he believed me, but I'm certain he found the situation very strange. After that, John started sending me messages asking if everything was alright. I briefly replied yes, explaining that I was traveling for work. Then I turned off my phone, and only now do I realize that I haven't touched it since I arrived. As expected, there are some missed calls and messages. Not only from John but also from Lisa.From: JohnFridayAre you traveling with your boss?From: JohnTodayKate, are you okay?From: LisaFridayKate, what's going on?

NATHANI managed to find the place, thanks to the hotel receptionist. She knew where the bar was and gave me the address, which luckily wasn't too far away. There was a sign with giant flashing letters: Old Moon. There were also several people outside. I found a place to park.I left the car and headed towards the entrance of the venue. The place was big and packed. How was I going to find her?I thought about calling and looking for someone with a cell phone. But she doesn't answer. Damn! It's no wonder, with all this noise. I look around again. Nothing... Wait, I spot the guy who was at her house earlier, near the counter. I approach him and touch his shoulder."Excuse me.""Yes? You're...""Yes. Nathan. Kate told me she was here. But I'm having trouble finding her. Have you seen her?""Sure. I'll show you." He signals for me to follow him and starts walking towards the back of the bar. Further back, I catch sight of her. She was laughing and then shouted something to her friends at
