I take a moment to look at her. Her cheeks are pink, and her lips are swollen and red.
She’s so fucking beautiful.
Before I can look at her any longer, she’s lifting her hips and climbing off my lap. The hand that was just between her thighs drops to my side.
I miss the warmth of her.
With her gone, it takes a few moments for me to realize what she might be able to see now with her body not on top of mine.
I hurriedly stand up, awkwardly trying to cover the front of my dress pants. I try to look down to figure out if you can see proof of my orgasm, but I can’t tell. I don’t want to spend too much time looking and make her wonder.
I’ve got to get out of here before she knows.
“So,” Camille’s soft voice breaks me from my panic.
My eyes find her. Luckily, her gaze meets mine, meaning she isn’t looking anywhere else for the moment.
“I can go,” I hurriedly get out, backing up toward the door.
Her eyes go wide for a moment. She looks surprised and sad by my comment, but the shock doesn’t last long. Almost as quickly as it appeared in her eyes, it’s gone.
“Yeah,” she mutters under her breath, looking down to fix her dress so her chest is no longer exposed. “You should go.”
My heart sinks a little because I realize there was a small part of me that was hoping she’d ask me to stay even if I was the one suggesting to leave.
Without saying anything else, I leave her room and rush toward mine.
TWENTY-SIX
CAMILLE
I take a deep breath,trying to calm the race of my heartbeat as I walk toward Pembroke’s front entrance. I spent the entire morning locked in my room, trying to avoid Ryker at all costs.
He knocked on my door.
He texted.
I ignored him.
Eventually, he gave up trying to talk to me. I look down at my phone, pulling up his texts from the day.
RYKER
I’m going to grab breakfast. Do you want anything?
RYKER
There’s an iced coffee in the fridge. I made sure they used oat milk. Just how you like it.
RYKER
You know I can hear you in your room. I know you’re in there.
RYKER
I’m going to Pembroke.
RYKER
