I could feel their eyes on me. The whispers hadn’t stopped completely.I leaned in slightly, lowering my voice so only Jesse could hear.“You really like making an entrance, don’t you?”His lips curved into something that wasn’t quite a smile.“You looked like you were having fun before I got here,” he murmured back, his tone edged with something dark.I rolled my eyes. “Oh yes, it was lovely being publicly humiliated by Athena and Catherine.”Jesse’s gaze darkened. “I should’ve gotten here sooner. I’ll make sure they regret their actions.”He smiled then leaned in closer and whispered into my ears. "Did you miss me, Bella? Even if you didn't, I did." "I...I....I did not miss you one bit." I said coldly. I knew that deep down, I actually missed him a lot. But I was angry at him. Why did he suddenly disappear like that, without texting back on time and here he is claiming to miss me. He held my waist even more tightly. "I dare you to say that again." I began. "I did not--" He carrie

“You’re perfect,” he murmured. I gasped when his mouth trailed lower, his breath hot against my skin.“Jesse,” I moaned, my fingers clutching at the sheets, at him, desperate for more.He smirked against my skin, his violet eyes locked onto mine as he whispered, “Do you like that?”He slowly helped me take off my zipper and my gown was completely off leaving me only with panties on. His warm hands roamed over my breasts slowly and deliberately, sending shivers through me. He leaned in, his breath hot against my neck, till lips went down to my nipples. "You’re so sweet, Bella." he murmured, his lips biting and sucking my nipples gently. I moaned out loudly in pleasure, my body arching beneath his touch."Oh, Jesse..." I breathed, my voice trembling with need.His smirk deepened at my reaction, his fingers continuing their slow, torturous exploration down my waist."That’s it. Let me hear you."He pulled his mouth away from my breasts, his lips leaving a trail of heat as he moved low

"Relax," he murmured against my ear, his breath sending shivers down my spine.His fingers trailed lower, smoothing over my waist before gripping my hips, pulling me back against his solid frame. I gasped at the sensation, my heart pounding as he pressed a kiss to the curve of my neck, his lips hot against my wet skin."Jesse…" I whispered, tilting my head to the side to give him more access.He turned me around, his dark eyes filled with heat as they locked onto mine. Water dripped from his hair, trailing down his jaw, and I couldn’t resist reaching up to trace the droplets with my fingertips. He caught my hand and brought it to his lips, kissing my palm before guiding it to rest against his chest."You drive me crazy, Bella," he admitted, his voice low and rough.He leaned in, his lips capturing mine in a deep, searing kiss. It was slow at first, teasing, until it wasn’t. His tongue slid against mine, his hands gripping me tighter as he pressed me against the cool tiles. My fingers

Just as Jesse’s lips trailed down my neck, my phone started ringing. The sharp sound cut through the quiet, making me stiffen slightly in his arms.He didn’t stop. His lips ghosted over my ear, his breath warm against my skin as he murmured, “Ignore it.”I swallowed hard. “It might be important—”But the moment I reached for my phone, Jesse caught my wrist, pinning it back against his chest. “Not now. I want you.” His voice was husky, deep, possessive. His fingers brushed over my other hand, forcing me to drop the phone onto the couch.The call ended.I let out a shaky breath, only for the phone to start ringing again. The sound was persistent, insistent.Jesse’s jaw tightened. His irritation was evident. “Who keeps calling you?”I hesitated. “It’s just Ellen—”His eyes narrowed slightly. “Ellen?”I felt weak under his prolonged gaze. “She’s an old schoolmate. We recently started talking again.”His lips twitched. “Is that so?”His fingers slid down my waist, teasingly slow, as if tes

Silence.For a brief second, I thought he might reach for me. But he didn’t. Instead, he just nodded, resigned.I didn’t say anything else either. I stood up and walked out of the room without looking back.Jesse was waiting for me in the car. As we drove, Jesse glanced at me. “So, what happened with Ellen?”I hesitated for a split second. My mind flashed back to Julius, to the conversation I had just walked away from. I opened my mouth, ready to tell him the truth—but the words wouldn’t come out.Instead, I forced a small smile. “She was having some financial problems, so I lent her some money. Nothing too serious.” I let out a light laugh, hoping it sounded natural.Jesse didn’t respond right away. His sharp gaze lingered on me for a moment.But then he simply nodded. “Okay. Well, that’s fine then.” He turned his attention back to the road. “I’ll drop you home. I have some matters to attend to at the office.”I exhaled in relief, grateful he hadn’t pushed further.When we pulled up
