Chapter 37
"There something wrong with my face? You're looking at me like you're gonna hurl, Princess."
Jackson's teased words met her ears in earnest. And as he stepped further into the house, with a whistle being placed between his lips, she grimaced. His lithe hands setting down the delicious smelling boxes before he cocked a brow at her.
He looked so confused, and against her best judgment, she grumbled.
"Your face gave me a heart attack..." The words were so soft, they barely formed a sound.
And as Jackson straightened up from his pizza delivery, he only looked more puzzled as Kaitlyn stared up at him.
"Hm? What was that?"
Her brows knitted and her gaze fell down to her lap.
"Oh--it's nothing. I just said that I wasn't expecting to see you tonight."
The excuse came bumbling past her lips and the girl winced at her lie. She prayed to whoever was listening that he couldn

Chapter 38 "I'll see you all later!" Kaitlyn called out with a wave as she stepped out of the brightly lit elevator, all smiles and cheer as the group by the front counter waved back with enthusiasm.The bounce to her step noticeable as Olivia shared a smile with her from across the counter, her blue eyes falling on the yellow flower the brunette kept close to her person like a guarded secret. Kaitlyn smiled to herself, deciding not to voice who she thought it was from. "See you later, K! Enjoy your day off!" Olivia chirped back and Bob gave her a stern look before nodding his head goodbye to her as well."I will!" She replied.Then she was walking out the glass doors, a smile lighting her lips as she recalled how Jackson had threatened the man not so long ago. The idea was insane to her, feeling as if the event was from another lifetime by now.Everything had changed since then.Two text messages sho

Chapter 39“Ta-da!” Kaitlyn’s melodic voice announced as she twirled in front of the building in front of them, all flirtatious smiles and hypnotic eyes as she held his gaze with her own. “Here we are, Jackson! What do you think?” She asked, her voice shy despite her cheerful actions.And Jackson had half a mind to ask her if she knew exactly what she was doing to him. Her feminine glances leaving his throat dry as he watched her.Want coursing in his veins every time her pretty pink lips so much as spoke his name.“Hm, what do I think? Let me see…” He purposefully drew out the words, knowing all too well how to get under her skin by this point. He crossed his arms, pretending to be puzzled as the little redhead in front of him damn near lost her mind. Her red hair was straight as a pencil today, long and flaring out beneath her knitted hat.It was undeniably cute.But not

Chapter 40"Thanks, princess." Jackson's soft reply was music to her ears. A steady beat to her otherwise rampaging pulse.She loved seeing him like this, happy and content. It reflected how he made her feel so often.She smiled down at the table between them, elated to be appreciated for her hard work at planning their date. She couldn't help but recall when she had planned an elaborate date for her and Randy once upon a time. She had picked out a movie, the snacks, and had planned to see a lightshow with him after.The man had smiled, but he had said he was too tired, and had simply regifted the tickets to Olivia so she wouldn't be alone. It had burned her inside.It was so different to have someone actually like her efforts.To care.The smile didn't leave her face, even as they both gave their orders to the waiter.But it wasn't until after the orders were delivered and their casual

Chapter 41Kaitlyn was breathless by the time he pulled away, his gaze full of shadows and promise as his pants of air fanned over her lips.It was hypnotic, enticing even, as she found herself trailing kisses over his strong jaw, shivering when those rough and needy hands all but encompassed her waist.The touch causing her breath to hitch when he squeezed."How's that for kissing you?" The words were heavy when he whispered them against her ear, and she shuddered when he suddenly rolled his hips up into hers.Against her best intentions, Kaitlyn moaned, her hips having a mind of their own as they dropped down against the swell in his slacks. They rolled in petite circles, heat and friction building up beneath the length of her skirt and stockings as she supported herself on her hands that were knitted firmly in his shirt. The rhythm of his heartbeat matched the pulse between her legs."Jesus, Pri

Chapter 42The date lingered in the back of her mind, when they had left the hotel that morning, they had been different than when they first arrived. The events from last night not only leaving marks on her body, but also on her heart.Everytime his name even popped up in her phone, she found herself smiling. Eager to go home to see him again.And that was why when her day at work reached the end, Kaitlyn was elated."All done!" Kaitlyn cheered from her desk, her back stretching with a loud pop as her hands reached for the ceiling.She'd just finished her last task and was officially on holiday break. It was about a week early, but she was more than happy to use the vacation time to start packing for her and Jackson's visit to her aunt's house.The giddy feelings alive in her system as she began to pack her messenger bag for the day.When she was done, she eagerly bounced up from her

Chapter 43Not regretting it was too much to hope for apparently.Sitting across the man she once saw a future with was horrible, a painful reminder of her shortcomings.No matter how much she loved the new direction her life was going, she couldn't help but reflect on where her life had dismantled to begin with.And it was the much harder to face when the cause of her heartache was Sitting directly across from her--with an innocent grin that she was starting to loathe.It didn't help that the establishment, despite the bitter weather--was mostly empty. The baristas inside scarce as well as they looked like they wanted to be anywhere else.It felt her feeling uncomfortable. With a frown, she sunk a bit into her scarf."I'll buy you whatever you want," Randy offered after a moment, his smile not wavering despite her obvious reluctance."No thanks. I'll buy myself a drink, thank you

Chapter 44 It was getting harder for her to control her urge to cry. "When you proposed to me, you were supposed to protect me, Randy." she spat the words, her vision blurry. "Did you forget that part? When you left to go see her? When I was home alone for hours on end? Or how about when I spent hours picking glass out of my hands while you left to fuck someone else, Randy?!" Randy seemed stupidly shocked at her anger, and he leaned back in his chair. Looking around the cafe as if he was embarrassed. The sight only infuriated her more. He rubbed the back of his neck. His brown hair hiding his eyes. "I did forget. I'm sorry. I just used your expectations of me to justify what I was doing. I know I was wrong now. I knew you would wait for me because as long as we got married, I knew you'd be happy." He paused, lowering his voice. "But I was egotistical and a dick to you. My job was supposed to bring us together but that became

Chapter 45The time spent in on the beach was harder than Kaitlyn ever imagined. What was supposed to be a relaxing getaway had become an uncomfortable stay.Jackson and her relatives didn't get along, at all. She expected it would take a day or two for them to get used to each other. After all, Kaitlyn had been slow to warm to Jackson herself. However, it looked like her Aunt and Uncle were going to be even slower. Between her Aunt questioning her about the nature of their relationship and her Uncle demanding she send him home, she was losing her mind. Jackson, thankfully, had managed to be more level-headed about their various disagreements, but she could tell he was reaching his limit. It would only take one more 'dangerous' or 'freak' comment to set Jackson over the edge, and how could she blame him?It didn't help that she and Jackson hadn't had a single moment to be alone. Her Uncle had been watching them like a hawk. It seemed like every time Jackso
