He swipes a single finger down my center, but it’s gone too quickly.

“You’re dripping, Princess. Was it the book? Did it make you wet to read about Xander fucking Jessa with his tongue?”

The book, yes, it turned me on, but only because I was imagining Rhys doing those things to me. Remembering howgood it had felt to have his tongue on me, his fingers stretching me.

His tongue licks up my seam. “God damn, you’re sweet.”

“Rhys,please.”

“You know I’m going to take care of you, Princess.” He places a gentle kiss against my clit before swirling it playfully with his tongue. “This sweet pussy belongs to me, and I take care of what is mine.”

With that, he presses his finger inside me and goes wild.

His skilled tongue devours me.

Licking.

Sucking.

Swirling.

Thick fingers thrusting inside me, filling me up so full and tight. The perfect combination that has me spiraling out in a matter of minutes.

By the time the rush of my orgasm subsides, he’s already cleaned me up and pulled my underwear and sleep shorts back into place.

He doesn’t say another word, but simply turns out the light again before pulling my back to his front and wrapping his arm around me.

As I settle back against him, he presses a kiss to my hair.

I close my eyes and let my breathing even out.

The orgasm let my body relax, but if I don’t watch out, all the possessive things Rhys just said could have me overthinking what is happening between us. I think about what my mom said. That we appeared to be in love.

Could the bad boy really fall for the good girl? Or does that only happen in romance novels?

Eventually, my heartbeat falls into a rhythm with Rhys’s and we both fall asleep.

CHAPTER 48

Colette

Hannah’s picking me up for Chloe’s book club tonight. I got home from the practice studio late, so I’m scrambling to get ready. I toss the book and my phone into my bag when I see a missed text from Rhys.

Rhys:Have fun tonight, Princess.

On my way downstairs, I type out a reply.

Colette:You too!

Before I can change my mind, I add a kiss emoji to my text.

Rhys:I’m still going to finish the book

Colette:You should. It had a happy ending.

Rhys:I’ll come over later and give you a happy ending

That’s me, just a regular girl flirt texting with her fake fiancé.
