They’re painted the colour of sin, only making me want to tug her close and kiss her hard.

Well, fuck.

Why the fuck does she always look so sexy?

“I’ll go grab my shoes,” she says, rolling her eyes as she pushes past me, making the hair on my arm stand up.Asshole.

Yeah, this was going to be a hard night. I glance down, and I really do mean that in more ways than one…

Shades of Jealousy

Scarlett

All day I have not been able to think straight. How can I when all I can think about is the fact he kissed me, got turned on by it and groaned in satisfaction? Maybe it’s just a plaything to him but it is dangerous.

Fuck he kisses so good… But when he kissed me, it’s terrifyingly scary to admit, but in that moment, I was ready to forsake it all just for that kiss to continue.

Until reality hit me. Hard!

It was a dangerous move that he made. Imagine if Mama or Dad found out? Just thinking about it makes me shudder, but that didn’t stop me from replaying that kiss again and again all through the day.

But the truth is, it should never have happened, no matter how good it had felt. I’m glad I was the one who pushed him away. Imagine if the smell of my arousal had reached him. Goddess.

I now walk over to my shoe shelf and pick out some black hooker heels, as Mama would call them, and put them on, satisfied with the added six inches. I look in the mirror, topping up my lipstick, ruffling my hair before applying some fragrance.

My heart skips a beat as I stare into the mirror. Who am I trying to impress? I close my eyes, trying not to think of the way his eyes raked over me.

Biting my lip, I look around my room, trying to calm my emotions. Why does he even want me to come along?

Will he try to get the names out of me? I don’t think he’ll do that in front of Indigo, but it’s still weird. Or does he want to suss out if I might tell someone which I definitely won’t?

I sigh heavily, glancing at my grey walls. The feature wall is grey wallpaper with a silver geometric diamond pattern on it. Black curtains and bedding stand out against the plush grey carpeted floor. There are pops of red around the room in the form of some ornaments, some cushions, and my beanbag near my heaving bookshelf. I have way too many books.

My favourite colour is red, followed by black and then grey but it is a certain shade of blue that has been playing on my mind lately. I sigh heavily and leave my room, not sure what the night will bring.

Will I regret agreeing to go?

I can only imagine them both ganging up on me. I hear Indigo protesting about me ‘ruining’ their sibling time as I walk down the stairs. I roll my eyes.

“But Mama! She needs to pack for tomorrow!”

“And so do you, you can both do it when you get back or in the morning, now enough,” Mama replies firmly.

“Yeah, I’ll deal with it later. So where are we going?” I ask.

“Patience, Red. You’ll find out,” Elijah says, our eyes meet, and I look away quickly hoping Mama didn’t sense anything is off. She’s quite perceptive and I feel like they’ll somehow realise we kissed, although I know that’s insane.

“Whatever,” I mutter as Indigo opens the door and rushes out.

Elijah’s gaze runs over my legs before he cocks a brow,glancing at my heels, but thankfully he doesn’t say anything before leading the way out.

“We don’t get to take your Audi?” Indigo looks appalled as Elijah smirks.

“Sorry, Pixie, that’s for two, and since we have a third wheel joining us-”

“On your damn offer,” I growl. “We can take my car... never mind.”

Elijah smirks at my blunder.
