Chapter 2

“W….What…..do you mean?” I stammered with slurred words.

The alcohol had started taking its effect on me. Oliver came and sat next to me. He lifted his hands and brushed the strands of hair to the back of my head “You don’t need to worry because you’re with me now.”

My heart beat increased instantly. I hugged myself as tears flowed on my face. Not even my husband has ever made me feel this way. For a split of a second, his words placed together my cracked soul. I just wanted to be held in his arms. I just wanted to feel like a woman for ones in my life.

However, this man was my enemy. What was I even thinking?

“I know what you need and I can give it to you. You just have to say the words.” he mumbled hoarsely as he caressed my face, sending little shivers inside of me. I knew at once that he was seducing me and I was fucking allowing him.

Why was I warming up to his advances? Was I that desperate to have him in my bed? He was fucking forbidden for me! I just didn’t understand why my body was being drawn to him like a magnet.

It’s just that I had missed a man’s tenderness. From the moment his skin met mine, he ruined me inside and my mind refused to reason.

Jasmine, snap out of it! You’re throwing yourself from the pan to the fire!

“Mmh …. Oliver, I can’t. I can’t cheat on my husband.” I mumbled as I turned my head away, heat spreading all over my face as sparks started igniting in my body, wild and untamed.

He consumed me, my lungs felt congested that I couldn’t breathe well from holding my breath for too long.

“Why don’t you give him a real reason to divorce you? I know my friend and if he is determined to divorce you, he will. So, are you willing to sleep with a stranger instead of me?” his words made my body shiver. I swear I was losing control!

I shook my head “No, but you also hate me! ”

He creased his mouth lazily and smirked “ I don’t remember telling you that I hated you. Listen, I’ m just giving you an opportunity to resolve a difficult situation. But if you’re not interested, then it’s fine. The door is wide open. You can let yourself out “He suddenly lost his patience and I knew that the ball was on my hands.

“Alright… I’ll do it, but on one condition. Promise me that there will be no strings attached. After this, we’ll have nothing to do with each other. we will continue our normal life as before, okay.”

I threw caution on the wind. Screwing him was better than a total stranger. I knew I was out of my mind but I needed him desperately. He was my only way to escape the heartbreak and even if he was using me for sex, I couldn’t care less.

“Deal” an evil smirk tugged on his mouth as he looked at me with lust. It was the first time I was seeing him relaxed. I never even thought that a man like him would desire a woman like me, the unwanted trash and plain as Jeff had branded me.

His words sunk deep into my soul.

I never planned on sleeping with Jeff’s friend but somehow, he deserved it. I will beat him to his game. There was no need holding on to the love that was never meant to be. Oliver was right. It was a high time that I divorce him and move on with my life.

Five years was a long time to put life on hold for ungrateful piece of shit.

“Relax....this is not going to work if you keep on flinching every time my hands lands on you “Oliver whispered as he lifted me on to his lap. I screamed nervously as I held on to his neck clumsily. I still couldn’t grasp the fact that I had accepted an offer of sex from my husband’s best friend.

How crazy could I get?

“Kiss me …” he ordered as his hot burning stare remained on my lips. The heat coming from him was like a furnace, burning its way deep into my bones and crashing my weak resolve.

I heaved a sigh and lifted my head towards him. Before I could do anything, his lips captured mine. His strong hands held the back of my neck as he guided his tongue inside my mouth. For a moment there, I forgot to breath.

He completely consumed me as he invaded my mouth like I belonged only to him. Like he was just waiting his entire life to kiss me. I have never been kissed like this and I fucking got smitten to the extent that I didn’t want him to stop.

“I need you. Don’t stop. “I whispered as I straddled him. I knew I was shameless but now that he’d seduced me, there was no turning back. I was going to lay back for once in my life and enjoy the pleasure from a man, even if he wasn’t mine.

“You can have all of me tonight. I’m going to claim you like no one has ever done. By the time I am done with you, my name will be branded in your soul and locked in your heart .” his warm breath fanned my skin as I shivered in need.

For a moment, I lost all senses in me and all that I could feel was this unfamiliar desire that was stirring inside of me. The more he kissed me, the more my body demanded. I knew I was out of my mind to do this but the moment he touched me, I forgot who I was. I forgot all my troubles.

He pulled back and I managed to breath in a good amount of air. I filled my lungs and lifted my shy eyes to his.

“I have never been kissed like that. “ I mumbled. Silently, he stood up and lifted me with him on his waist “Jeff must have been a fool to waste such a sweet woman like you “he whispered on my ears and then gently kissed my already swollen lips.

“Aren’t you afraid that he is going to hate you for this?” I asked in between kisses.

“That’s my business to handle. Just focus on enjoying yourself, okay. I’ll show you what you have been denying this sexy body “He stated coquettishly as he laid me gently on the bed.

Soon, his shirt came off and I got to see the sturdy chest, muscled arms and the six-pack underneath it. Gosh, he was easy on the eyes, the kind that belonged on a magazine cover. It was a fucking crime for a man to be this gorgeous. No, perfect was the best word to describe him.

“Can I touch you?” I asked as I swallowed hard, my spit almost chocking me. I didn’t think that I deserved him or any one as handsome as him. Jeff had made me think less of myself.

“Yeah …I’m all yours and every part of my body belongs to you. “The moment he said the words, I couldn’t hold myself back. I had to feel him. I had to just memorize this moment so that I could fantasize about it later.

I kissed his chest as my hands slid down to his belly and further bellow to his v section. The moment my hands stopped on the hard rock member on his groin, he groaned and I smiled.
