Chapter 12; London
London
I woke up slowly, taking my precious time to finally open my eyes. The room was still dark so I couldn't tell what time it was. It could be noon for all I knew; the black out curtains in the hut were wonderful like that. It was the first time I'd gotten up before Sinclair and I took full advantage of it. Sliding out of his arms carefully to avoid waking him up, I leaned over him and stared unabashedly until my eyes adjusted to the darkness of the room and I could see him.After showering last night, he hadn't put any product in his hair so his copper colored hair was full of unruly curls. Lashes a little lighter than the hair on his head fanned his cheeks. He looked sterner in his sleep, his features sharper in the muted light. God, but was he beautiful. I raised a hand and lightly traced his jaw. I liked the stubble on his jaw and I made a mental note to ask him to keep it. "Like what you see?" His voice was soft and teasing. I blushed at beinRelated chapters

She was sitting alone at a table in the corner when I found her at the cafeteria. The place was mostly deserted as most of the breakfast crowd had come and gone. The few other occupants were bleary eyed youngsters who had probably spent the previous night going too hard on alcohol and were still dealing with nasty hangovers. I shuddered at the memory of college me who had once been them.Her hair was loose around her shoulders and the curls were more pronounced. She was wearing loose white pants and a light blue sleeveless blouse. There was an untouched plate of eggs in front of her and an empty cup of coffee.I sat in front of her and stared to my satisfaction. She looked precious and fragile, her shoulders hunched. She was looking out at the ocean but I didn't think she was actually seeing it, her eyes blank. I wondered what she was thinking. I would give all my fortune to be privy to her every thought. I'd give my soul even. I wanted to

London.I found a passable black dress among Cathleen's things. Paired with low black sandals and bright red lipstick, I was dinner ready. I decided to tie my hair up into a pony tail and forgot jewelry, except of course the large rock sitting pretty on my left hand.I grimaced when I saw Sin's outfit. A silky black shirt and charcoal pants. We looked a bit too -for lack of a better word- funeral."You look beautiful." He said."I should change. It's weird how we're both wearing black.""Don't. If they have a problem with it, we'll ditch them."I laughed. "You're looking for a reason to bail out on this." I turned back to the mirror and smoothed my hand down the front of my dress. I was glowing in a way I hadn't for the longest of time. My skin was tanned and my eyes were bright. I looked happy."Ready?" He asked.My eyes met his in the mirror. "I'm ready."Dinner was at the the patio of the

Sinclair.I hadn't seen Cath in exactly four hours, twenty six minutes and thirteen seconds. Not that I was counting or anything. I wasn't that needy.Yeah, sure.I scoffed silently. I could admit to myself at least that I craved Cath as much as I craved air.I had gotten used to us existing in our little bubble and I was feeling a little bit annoyed that these people had burst it and taken her away.Presently, I was hiding at the bar. I had excused myself a while ago from the table where the grooms party had been holding court and bonding over drinks and such, with the pretense of going to go make a call. I ground my teeth in irritation as I checked my watch once again.Bored, restless and itching to have Cath back at my side. I had never been like this. This wasn't me at all and I didn't know what had warranted this sudden change. This sudden urgency in me to be attached to Cath's hip.I was doing my best to concea

London The party stretched far into the night, long after the older people had gone off to bed and my feet had gone sore from all the dancing. At a point, the drums and cultural music transformed into pop songs. Most of us were drunk, and uninhibited so it had started to feel more like a club than a wedding. Sin had cut off my alcohol intake a while back, so I was perfectly sober. Sana and Jay were in one corner talking and giggling and occasionally making out indecently. To my complete surprise, Charlie and Rohan had been dancing together nearly the whole night. I wondered if it was just because she was drunk or if the alcohol had allowed her to do something she had always wanted to do. Those two were definitely going to end up in bed. The thought made me laugh. “What’s funny?” Sin asked me. “Charlie and Rohan.” I replied. He looked over his shoulder at them and let out a breath of laughter. “I called it.”“All that fighting and bickering always looked a tad suspicious.” I n

LondonThe door clicked shut behind me. The sound loud and meaningful in the dark, quietness of the room. The air between us cackled with electricity as we stared at each other. The moonlight seeping into the room illuminated him in shades and silver. His hair looked darker and his eyes were like two pools of unfiltered desire. "We should shower." I said."We should." He agreed, then he reached for his sleeves and undid the cuffs. I pushed his jacket off my shoulders. He began to undo the buttons of his shirt and I followed suit, taking my clothes off, till we were both in our underwear. Mine, a matching nude and his, black Calvin Klein briefs. He held out his hand to me and I placed mine in his. The difference in the size of our palms made something primal come to life within me. I liked the size difference between us. I liked how standing beside his much larger frame, I always felt safe and protected. Slowly, we made our way to the bathroom.The moment felt sacred and I was lo

London.Waking up cocooned into his body was the best part of my day if I was being honest. I enjoyed it for as long as I could, breathing his natural body smell in. Allowing it to feel my lungs and cloud my senses. Soft sunlight filters through the curtains, creating a warm and cozy vibe in the bedroom. I sighed as I burrowed deeper into his body."Good morning. How did you sleep?" He asks in a raspy voice that does things to my insides. Flashes of the previous night flit through my head and I smile in contentment. "I slept well, all thanks to the big teddy bear I slept with last night." I tease.He chuckled. "I don't think I look anything like a bear. A little bit too less hair." "I don't know what you're talking about. You're my stuffed animal." "Hmmm." I can hear the smile in his voice. I open my mouth to say something else but a sharp pain in my middle leaves me gasping instead. Sin shot up to a seating position immediately. "Are you okay? Babe? What's wrong?" I rubbed my s

London The day was perfect. Me, half asleep cuddled up into Sin's warm body, the curtains drawn, the ceiling fan spinning lazily and Sin, reading a mystery book the concierge brought for him. I could get used to this. Nope. Hell no. I wasn't even going to go there. I corrected myself immediately. I could get used to this- with someone who definitely wasn't Sinclair Donovan-Wells. The thought left a sour taste at the back of my throat though. Refusing to think more about it, I settled back into the semi-conscious state where my mind went peacefully blank. The rythmic thump of Sin's heart under my head was just about to lull me into sleep when an unwelcome knock yanked me back to awareness. I looked up at Sin who had a confused look on his face. "Expecting someone?" I asked."No. Go back to bed. I'll get rid of whoever it is." He dropped a kiss on the top of my head before slipping out of bed. Being in bed felt instantly less appealing without him in it. The only thing that separa

London"Do you want to play a game?" I asked Sin. We were back in bed after the drama with his bitchy assistant had passed. We had both agreed that we wouldn't be opening the door to any other uninvited guests. It was better that way. Our time together was quickly ending and I was eager to maximize every second to the fullest. Our time was running out and my heart was lodged somewhere in my throat. That was how terrified I was. Tell him. The thought flittered again through my head. It had been a recurring thought. One I didn't want to address at all. "No. But you want to, so I'm gonna indulge you." He replied.I chuckle. "How do you know I want to?" "I can read your mind.""You're silly" If he could, he'd have found out the truth and kicked me out on the first day. It would have been a relief. I would have gone home angry at Cath and a little bit embarrassed. Then when Sin had simply been just a really attractive looking man to me and nothing else. "What game do you wanna play?
