Maybe it was the airconditioner, or the aftermath effect of what I and Jeremy had done, but I was shaking. My whole body ached, my legs were trembling where I was sprawled on the floor. Embarassment was wearing in now. I had begged Jeremy not to stop fucking me. God. I actually said that out loud.I shied away from Jeremy’s gaze that was searing heat into my skin, but before the shame could pull me in further, his rough palm slid over my stomach, smearing the mess he had made on me. He was so raw—liked to play dirty. His other hand cupped my cheek, forcing me to look at him.“Look at you,” he muttered, his voice still thick with lust. “Shaking all over. Can’t even catch your breath.”I closed my eyes. “Stop teasing me.”But he didn’t. Of course he didn’t. He dragged his thumb across my bottom lip, slowly and lingering, like he was memorizing the tremble there.“You begged, Teyana.” He smirked, eyes still burning into my skin. “Begged me like you couldn’t live without it.” He added as
“Jer…” My heart was pounding a million, trillion times. He jerked me to his bare hard body, my tank top slipping up a little at the force. His hands held me in place where my skin was naked—my stomach, his breath fanning the side of my face. I was melting.“Where are you going, little nerd?” I recognized that tone. It was the same he used with me that night, before he went all the way with me and gave me my first time. A night I had replayed in my head countless times over.“Jer,” His name slipped off my mouth again, but this time around, it came as a moan. Embarassment flooded my body. “I gave you the option to leave. You stayed.” His voice thickened, hands still holding me in place. “You don’t get a second time.” I closed my eyes. I was at his mercy. “We…can’t.” My mouth said what my body seriously frowned at. “Can’t what, little nerd?” He jerked me around to face him then pinned my body to the wall. His eyes…damn it. I couldn’t look again. So I looked anywhere but him. Or else,
By the time we pulled up in front of a secluded house in what looked like a private area, I was already rethinking my decision of following Jeremy here. We hadn’t said a word to each other during the ride. My heart hadn’t stopped pounding either— since he pinned me over that bike.Jeremy killed the engine, still not saying a word. I exhaled sharply as the distracting pressure of his back left me when he swung off the bike, leather jacket glinting under the dim security lights. I climbed off after him, a little stiffly.His phone beeped. It had been beeping since.“Won’t you pick your call?” I asked. I watched as he put it on airplane mode before responding to me. “No need.” Oh okay. My own phone had gone off before we got here or I would have been so sure Carol would call.Lots had happened tonight. From realizing Stacy was Zayne’s younger sister to the fights, and embarrassment that followed. Not to talk off the moment between Jeremy and I that got me all worked up earlier. It’s been
As I said those words, I felt his body stiffen under my hold. But Jeremy said nothing. The next thing I knew, his bike skidded to a halt in the middle of nowhere. I gasped at the sudden stop, thinking it was a malfunction.But when he just sat there, chest rising and falling sharply, I realized he had stopped on his own. His body was vibrating under my hands…like he was shaking.I slowly released my grip on him. “Are you… okay?” “Hop off” He blurted with a sharp breath that scared me.“What?” I was confused.“Hop off, Teyana.” His tone sounded clipped and alarming , so I yielded. He climbed off after me, then rushed ahead to the middle of the lone road, hunching forward. I couldn’t see what was going on with him clearly from where I stood. But it didn’t look good.My legs carried me toward him before I could stop myself, heart pounding with each step. “Stay back!” His voice jolted me but I didn’t stop walking till I was close enough. I saw him clearly now. He was gripping his left h
Stacy shoved through the circle, her face pale. “Zayne, God no!” She was pulled back by some hefty men who were now separating them. Thankfully, the two still had their faces intact, but there were cuts here and there. It still felt like a movie, like a dream.The two hefty men who looked like bouncers didn’t do anything else. They just stood between Zayne and Jeremy like they were untouchable.I guess it was because of who they were. I should’ve been relieved it stopped before it went too far, but the relentless flashes of phone cameras made my stomach knot tighter. Zayne still had a devilish smirk on his face. Jeremy looked like nothing was funny and he could still kill. I wished this hadn’t had to happen..“Ah, so Jeremy fucking Carter has a weakness now. Your stepsister, huh?” I hated that sneer in Zayne’s voice. And he was so wrong. I was not Jeremy’s weakness. To be someone’s weakness, you have to matter to them. I didn’t think that was the exact case with Jeremy and I.Bianc
His voice had an angry edge to it. My chest squeezed but I forced myself not to flinch. “Excuse me?” I retorted, pulling my hand away from his tight grip.“You are not built for this kind of environment.” His grip tightened on my wrist and I didn’t even think he knew it. “You shouldn’t be here. That’s what I’m saying. Who invited you? Is it…Zayne?” I scoffed, finding myself angry at the controlling tone he emitted. I looked around, we were quite distant from the crowd. Good.“You have no right to interrogate me.” I spat.His stern eyes barely moved. It was killing me. Him standing this close. He must have left Bianca to come here. But it had to do with Zayne, not me.“Oh, I don’t? So you wish so badly to lose yourself into this kind of life? Well, be my guest.” His tone was so cold. His voice wasn’t raised, yet it felt like ice wrapped around it.I was ready to play this game. He thought he was angry? I was more than angry too. Infact, I needed someone to drop all my frustration on,
