Chapter 59 - Stolen Passion, Startling Arrival
(Trigger Warning: This chapter contains explicit content and is intended for mature readers.)
I could barely catch my breath as I slipped into the restroom, my entire body tingling with unfulfilled need. What was I doing? Meeting Kaelen in a bathroom like some desperate, sex-starved woman who couldn't control herself?
But that's exactly what I was right now. Desperate. Needy. Furious at myself for wanting him despite everything.
The door swung open behind me. I didn't need to turn around to know it was him - his presence filled the room instantly, making the air thick and electric.
"Lock it," I whispered.
The click of the lock sliding into place echoed in the silent restroom. When I finally turned to face him, the hunger in his eyes made my knees weak.
"You came," he said, his voice rough with desire.
"Don't read too much into it." I tried to sound defiant, but my voice betrayed me, coming out breathless and wanting.
