MasukGRACEDing.I picked up my phone to see a message from an unknown number.My hands shook, and I nearly dropped the phone as I saw a picture of Hayden and me kissing.“If you don’t want this published in the school blog with an eye-catching caption, meet me tonight.”I instantly knew it was from Eric. Only he would be stupid enough to try to hold this over my head.My hands wouldn’t stop shaking as I stared at the screen.I closed my eyes and pressed the phone against my forehead. I felt sick at the thought that I was at his mercy. This wasn’t the right time to let our parents know about my relationship with Hayden.“Where?” I asked, frowning.He replied with a hotel name and room number.“Shit!” I cursed, feeling the urge to smack my phone.My first instinct was to call Hayden, but I didn’t want the situation to escalate even further.“Is everything okay?” Madison walked into the room and asked.I sighed, not knowing where to start. My red eyes were a giveaway that everything wasn’t o
GRACEHayden was a few steps away in a black suit, speaking to one of the board members. He kept glancing over at me like he was keeping track of where I was.“Grace, Hayden, come here.” My mother called out.I turned. She was walking toward us with her hand on the arm of a man I had hoped never to see.Eric.My stomach twisted hard.Mom smiled like she was delivering good news. “I want you both to meet Eric properly. Eric, these are my children. Hayden is my stepson, and this is Grace. You two already know each other, of course.”Eric’s eyes landed on me first, filled with shock, then he looked at Hayden and sneered.My stomach ached. I knew that look all too well. It wasn’t anything good.Mom kept talking, bright and oblivious. “Eric and Grace have been dating since they were in high school. Right, you haven’t mentioned him in a while, darling.”Heat rushed to my face. Hayden’s shoulders went rigid. I felt like rolling my eyes at her words. How could I mention someone I was no longe
GRACEThe way he handled me made me feel so wanton, not like the good girl my mother raised me to be.I needed it so badly it hurt. I needed the way he filled me, the way his fingers dug into my hips, the way he looked at me like I was his world. I leaned back, hands braced on his thighs, and rode him harder, watching his eyes close with pleasure.One of his hands left my hip and found my clit again, rubbing while he fucked up into me. The dual sensation was too much. I came a second time, walls clenching hard around him.“Fuck!” he cursed under his breath and kept going, chasing his own release.He didn’t last much longer. A few more deep thrusts and he pulled me down hard, burying himself to the hilt as he came with a low sound against my throat. I felt every pulse of it inside me, and I stayed there, shaking, while he held me through it.“I love you, Angel,” Hayden whispered.“I love you too.”I lay on his body, panting slowly, his cock still twitching inside me. Eventually he kiss
GRACE“Our trip ended up being cancelled. It was an entire waste,” Madison grumbled.“The snow got worse, and it would be terrible if someone died from frostbite.” I shrugged, putting a few clothes in my suitcase.“That’s true, but still everything I had planned was destroyed.”“The teachers had no choice. It was either risk it or turn back.”“Grace!” Madison yelled. “Why must you sound so logical?” She jumped on my bed, my clothes falling to the floor.“Madison,” I yelled, sighing.“Why do you have to leave for the weekend? School just resumed,” she whined.“I know but my mother called and I must attend this charity gala that Richard is hosting.”I didn’t want to go, but I also did not have a choice and could not withstand my mother’s begging. On the plus side, Hayden was coming with me, and I felt excited.“What would become of my life with you gone?” Madison cried dramatically.“You really don’t have any tears dripping down your face,” I pointed out, rolling my eyes.“Fine! You kno
GRACE“What the fuck just happened?” Ryan groaned, slapping his forehead.“Stop shouting, I need to think,” Madison yelled, pushing Ryan to the side.“Who was the person who wanted to see a deer? A motherfucking deer,” Ryan replied.“I didn’t see you complaining when we went to see them.”I looked at Hayden, who was looking at it all with a blank face, and pinched him.“Can you guys please stop fighting?” I tried to stop the argument.“What are we going to do about this? We are in the middle of nowhere,” Madison said to me, panicking.“Shouting isn’t going to solve anything. We need to brainstorm on how to get help.”I looked around, and the snow was beginning to fall harder.“We need to act fast, or we will get frozen by the snow, and we won’t be getting any help,” Hayden concluded.I brought out my phone and saw that there was no signal.“Please check your phone if we would be able to get to Mr Scott.”“Grace, I have signal!” Madison yelled loudly.“Call him then,” Ryan reprimanded.
GRACE“Gracie!” Madison yelled, hugging me tightly.“Could you please stop spinning?” I said in alarm.We staggered together as she set me on my feet. I was still in awe of the strength she had in lifting me.“I miss you terribly,” Madison said, flipping her hair.“I miss you too, my baby,” I said, hugging her.“Now tell me everything that happened over the holiday.” She dragged me to her bed.“Girl, I already told you the tea over the phone,” I laughed at how interested she was in the topic.“I know you did, but nothing beats a face-to-face storytelling.”I sighed and lay on her bed, and began telling her the beginning of my love story with a big smile on my face and a fluttering heart.“Wow,” Madison exclaimed after a while.“I can’t believe that you are dating Hayden Reid!” she screamed.I quickly grabbed her mouth to stop her from speaking.“What the hell, Mads, lower your voice,” I hissed.“Whatever, Grace, I’m sure no one is going to hear us speaking.”I went back to my box and
