She moans softly, her body pressing back against me. "Yes," she whispers, her voice breathy.
"Then show me," I demand, my voice low and threatening. She shivers in my arms, her body trembling with anticipation.
With my arms wrapped around her, I guide her hands to my cock, still hard from our previous encounter. She wraps her fingers around me, her touch electrifying as she begins to stroke me. She turns back to face me. Her eyes are wide with awe and desire as she watches the water spray against her body.
"Fuck, Hadley," I groan, my patience wearing thin. "You have no idea what you do to me." Kneeling, she wraps her mouth around my dick and I groan loudly, my hands grasp her hair as she begins taking my length.
“That’s a good girl,” I growl, looking down at her perfect lips wrapped around my cock. My god, I'm lost. My hands hold her hair and I start thrusting into her mouth, my hips jerking and slamming against her face. Her eyes are glassy, looking up at me through her strands of hair. I thrust harder and harder, feeling like I'm going to cum any second, and then suddenly, I let go. The intense surge of pleasure as I fill her mouth with my release is intoxicating.
She swallows every last drop, her eyes never leaving mine as she sucks me dry. When she pulls away, I see her face glistening with the remnants of my cum, and I feel a surge of satisfaction wash over me."Fuck, Hadley," I groan, finally releasing her. She looks up at me with a smirk, her eyes gleaming with victory and contentment.We both step out of the shower, our bodies glistening and spent. She reaches for a towel, drying herself off as I wrap one around my waist.“So, what happens now?” she asks, a playful glint in her eyes. I shrug nonchalantly, wrapping the towel around my waist, trying to hide my erection that had yet to fully subside. "I'm not sure, to be honest.”
She bites her lip as she stares back at me.“Please don't make me go back, Rhett,” her eyes glisten as we both realise this isn’t a game. I was sent here for a reason. I couldn’t fuck everything up now.
“Hadley, your father sent me to find you for a reason. I have to go back at some stage.” She looks at me with a mix of fear and determination, then closes the distance between us. "Don't do this, Rhett," she whispers, her eyes filling with tears. "Please."
She sniffles and I tuck a piece of hair behind her ear, the sadness in her green eyes makes my heart clench. “I can’t marry him,” she says, her voice just barely a whisper. “Do you know what he does to women?”
The loud crack of the storm above us rumbles in the room, reflecting my emotions at that moment perfectly.
“Hadley, I-” she cuts me off, not allowing me to finish my sentence.
“Save it, Rhett. I don’t want to hear it.”
She leaves the bathroom in nothing but a towel, and I stand there realising I’m in more than deep shit.
I’m a dead man.
Because somehow, I know I won’t be taking her back to her father.
Hadley
I pull up a chair to the large window overlooking the marina. The lightning cracks across the sky, lighting up the earth below, creating beautiful scars across the darkened sky. I continue sipping on my hot chocolate, ignoring the gorgeous man sitting in the same room as me.
The silence in the room hangs heavy, the only sound is the rain tapping on the windows. I can feel Rhett’s eyes on me but he doesn’t say anything. I know this isn’t over, I know he wants to talk. But for now, I need to gather my thoughts.
I sip my hot chocolate slowly, the warm liquid swirling around in the mug. I try to ignore the ache in my chest, the memories flooding back of being forced into this engagement.
“I’m sorry,” Rhett whispers, and I refuse to remove my gaze from the skies. “I’m sorry for confusing the situation and making things worse.”
I sigh but can’t bring myself to look at him.
“I’m not. I’m not sorry at all."
I take another sip of my mug and flick my gaze to him.
"What are you saying, Hadley?” Rhett's voice is filled with uncertainty and concern.
I stare at him for a long moment, my heart pounding in my chest. This isn't just about an engagement anymore. It's about choices, about freedom, and about the life I want to live.
"I'm not sure of anything," I finally admit, my words quiet. "But I do know that I can't go back to the life I had before. I can't marry someone I don't love. I won't."
Rhett's eyes are searching, trying to decipher my thoughts. "Then what do you want, Hadley?"
I take a deep breath, the rain pelting against the window as if echoing my own turmoil. "I want to make my own choices. I want to live my life. I don’t want to be a pawn in my father’s game anymore.” Rhett runs a palm over his face. It’s amazing how sexy he can look in a moment of frustration.
“You can’t run Hadley, no matter how fucked up the situation. You know he will continue to hunt you down no matter what.” His intense gaze burns into me. “I won’t stop hunting you because I know he’ll keep asking me to.”
I know he’s right. I let out a sigh, my fingers tightening around the mug as I take another sip. My parents have always pulled the strings in my life, dictating what I should and shouldn't do, and it's time for that to end."I know, Rhett. But I have to try. I have to live for myself, to make my own choices, to have my ownvoice. I can't keep living in fear."He nods, his eyes showing his understanding of the weight of my words. "You're right, Hadley. You can't keep living like this. But what can you do? Your father will never let you go."I look out the window again, thinking of the rain that falls outside, washing away everything in its path. "I don't know, Rhett. Maybe if I can just find a way to fight back. To stand up for myself, to make him understand that I won't be controlled anymore." I clutch the mug tightly, my knuckles turning white.I feel Rhett's gaze on me, his eyes filled with both concern and admiration. He takes a step closer, his hands gently grabbing my shoulders. "You're strong, Hadley. You'll find a way to fight back. You don't need your father's approval to live your life. And if you need help, I can help you."I swallow hard, feeling a glimmer of hope in my heart. "Thank you, Rhett."
