“I want you to fuck me right now.”

My dress was getting in the way, so he let go of my wrists and turned me around so he could unzip it. As soon as it fell to the ground, he turned me around, leaning against me and pinning my wrists above my head with one hand.

“I wanted to fuck you from behind, but then I wouldn’t be able to watch you bite that beautiful lip when I make you come all over me.”

He thrust deep and hard inside of me, and I gasped. He brought my leg up around his waist as he moved sharply in and out of me, moaning in pleasure. I lifted my other leg and wrapped them both around him as he let go of my wrists and held me up while he pounded into me like an animal, bringing me to a magnificent orgasm.

“That’s right, baby. Come for me and only me. I know you love it when I fuck you like this.”

His lips brushed over mine as he pushed deeper inside me and filled me up with his come. “For now, you’re mine,” he whispered in my ear.

He set me down and pulled out of me, bending down and pulling up his pants. He handed me my panties and my dress.

“We better get back out there before people notice we’re gone and come looking for us.”

I slipped on my panties and my dress and asked him to zip me up.

“Would it be so bad that they knew we just fucked in your room? After all, isn’t perception everything?” I wiped my lips and walked out of the bedroom. From this day forth, I wasn’t going to play the emotional game anymore. Max Hamilton wanted nothing more than a physical relationship, and that was what he was going to get. It was time I prepared myself for the day he walked out of my life.

Chapter Fifteen

“I’m going to miss you,”I whined as I hugged Molly and Kara at the airport.

“We’ll be back in less than two weeks, and then the hunt is on for an apartment.”

“If you want, I can start looking for you. It’s not like I have anything better to do.”

Kara gave me a soft smile as she grabbed my hand. “Are you sure Max won’t stay after your arrangement is over?”

“Yeah. I’m positive. I don’t know what his plans are, and I don’t want to know. He has deep-rooted family issues, and he has no intentions of settling with me. I can’t go through the emotional pain of hoping we have a future. It’s not fair to me.”

“You’re right. Just hang in there, Emma. We’ll be back soon, and then we’ll get your mind off of him.”

I gave them each one last hug and waved goodbye as they went through security. I sighed as I hailed a cab back to my apartment. I changed into my workout clothes, went down to the gym, and jumped on the treadmill. As I was running, I couldn’t help but think about last night. The party was okay, but the best part was what took place in Max’s bedroom. The hunger he hadfor me when I told him that maybe I would contact Lucas after we split up was unlike anything I’d ever experienced before. I could tell he was jealous and didn’t want to hear of another man. But was he jealous enough to keep me? Could his jealousy overrule his non-commitment issues? Before I knew it, I had been running on the treadmill for over an hour. I was sweaty and desperately needed a shower. I grabbed the towel and wiped my face as I walked back up to my apartment.

I turned on the hot water and let it run for a minute before stepping into the shower. I looked in the mirror and placed my finger on the butterfly pendant Max gave me. The words he spoke haunted me.“I always want you to dance, Emma. Promise me you’ll never stop dancing.”I didn’t think too much about it when he said it to me because I was overwhelmed, and we were running late for the party. But after settling into bed last night, it was all I heard. I didn’t tell Molly or Kara what he said because they’d make a big deal about it. My feeling was that he gave it to me to keep as a memory of him and the times we spent together after he was gone. Just as I was stepping into the shower, my phone rang, and it was my mom. I’d call her back after I was finished with my shower. She'd be mortified if she only knew what I was involved in.

I stepped out of the shower and put on a pair of yoga pants and an oversized T-shirt. It was seven o’clock, and I wasn’t planning on going anywhere. I hadn’t heard from Max all day, and I was feeling a bit lonely without Molly and Kara. I heated up a couple of slices of leftover pizza, poured a glass of wine, and called my mom.

“Hey, honey. How are you?”

When I heard her voice, tears came to my eyes. I missed her.

“I’m okay, Mom. How are you?”

“I’m good. Is something wrong? You sound down.”

The lump in my throat was getting worse because I just wanted to break down to her, but I didn’t want her to worry.

“I’m fine. Kara and Molly left today, so I’m just feeling a little down.”

“Aw, sweetheart. Haven’t you made any new friends yet?”

“Yeah. I have. I’m just a little homesick.”

“How are the men in New York City? Have you met anyone special yet?”

“No. I really don’t have time for that right now with school.”
