| felt my face grow warm at his words, and | exhaled long and hard. | felt called out for always wanting to please

Marco, which was why I had changed out of my first dress this morning to this plain looking one.

My stomach was in knots presently over having Zane stare atright now. | had thought we’d not cross paths

again for now at all. The last twe saw each other was four days ago at that hotel room, whereby we fucked

before | passed out, and right now, it was exactly what | was thinking about. About how he fucked ne so deep

and hard. My face flushed when our eyes locked again and | wondered if he had thought of that night since we

parted ways, or if that was just a mediocre fuck to him. To distract myself from that train of thought, I cleared my

throat as | spoke next.

“So, uh... I didn’t expect to see you here tonight.”

He grinned, a small show of teeth that had my heartbeat accelerating again as he spoke.

“Why? Are you excited to see me? Or disappointed?”

| spluttered this twhile my face flamed again, then he chuckled softly right before his gaze raked over me

once again, which madefeel hot all over.

What did he mean by that question? Was he excited to seetonight?

His eyes raked overagain and this time, he stepped closer to me, making my breath hitch in my throat as |

blinked up at him.

I inched away from him after a couple of seconds, then I tried to gather myself together, but | felt thoroughly

shaken to the core. My insides was a complete mess, and | just couldn't stop thinking how close we were

standing right now, we were so close that | can almost feel his body heat against mine, and right now, | just

couldn't stop myself from thinking about the kind of heated kisses we shared, those kind of kisses which

instantly hadgrowing wet at once, the kind that shookto the core and mademad with desire.

Staring at him right now was makingremember what a good kisser he was, not like | could ever forget about

that, | just never let myself ever think about that since | returned from Italy. | never let myself dwell on it at all,

cause | had already marked everything concerning Zane as banned territory which | mustn't venture into.

However, right now, he was here in front of me, and despitetrying hard to keep myself from thinking about

all those sinful things he did toduring the twe pretended to be dating. | ended up doing just that.

| shook my head and cleared my throat to rid my mind of those lewd thoughts, then Lutied to steer the

conversation to the safest place | could right now

“You're yet to congratulateaboutgetting together with Marco. You're aware that we're now dating.

right?” | mumbled, my voice sounding weak to my own ears, and I silently slapped myself over the head. | held

his gaze as silence stretched between us, then | forced myself to not glance at his lips. Right now, | was

imagining him kissing me, and | hated myself for that.

Since | was now dating Marco, | had no business thinking about stuff like that or about how insanely hot he

looked right now, that’s just disgusting of me, and that’s exactly why I just said what I did. That was supposed

to remind my stupid brain that | was with Marco, and to also stop Zane from stepping closer toor trying to do

something ridiculous like cupping my face and kissingright now, cause | just know that should he do that

right now, I'd be too weak to stop him.

He arched a brow at me, then he scoffed and stepped even closer to me, making my mouth fall open as | gaped

at him while my entire body instantly grew hot.

“W- what are you doin-" | began but he reached out to cup my face, making the rest of my words stumble in my

throat as my knees wobbled a little cause | instantly grew weak underneath his touch.

Oh my god... I'm really so pathetic...

“If I congratulated you about that, then that means it would be fake because | wouldn't mean it.” He revealed

and my face grew hot as | blinked up at him while my brain short circuited at those words, as my heart

hammared away.

“What?” | whispered, feeling like his large palm was burning through my skin.

“Did you forget about the promise you made tofour nights ago? At the club?” He continued and | felt my

breath hitch in my throat as my mind wandered.

My thoughts were all over the place, my brain had stopped working since the moment he got this close to me

and cupped my face, and right now, | struggled to cup with a response. | vividly remember the promise he

was talking about, whereby I told him | was gonna try to move on after | returned back home.

“Uh, | thought the promise didn’t matter anymore since | got back with Marco.” | mumbled weakly and Zane

scoffed while clicking his tongue and my face flushed in embarrassment once again.

“You just assumed wrong. When | asked you to find someone better who'd readily kiss the ground you walk on, |

meant including Marco,”

When I gaped at him, he rolled his eyes.

“What? Do you seriously think Marco deserves you?” He demanded and | flushed again before pulling away from

his hold with the rest of my strength, then after putting a good distance between us, | was able to Breathe a little

better,

“Stop saying what you don’t know, Marco does deserve me,” | muttered, but he laughed and shoved his hands.

into his pockets.

“No, he fucking don’t.”

This time, | scowled at him. “Just, stop cause you're confusing me! If you believed he didn’t deserve me, why did

you helpget his attention and all that for five good days?” | demanded and he shrugged after a few

moments,

“I had to, cause convincing you otherwise back then would have beenbeating a dead horse situation. | never

thought Marco deserved you for a mother.” He revealed and | blinked at him while my chest heaved and my

mind reeled.

When | remained silent, he finally sighed as he spoke. “Well, it's your choice either way. Stay with him if you

want.”

| squared my jaw and folded my arms as | nodded. “Yeah, thanks,”

Weirdly, | felt extremely empty on the inside.

“And thank you though, your efforts ended up paying off, and it's because of how you helpedget noticed by

Marco that we're together right now, so... thanks, | guess.” | called out just as he was about to leave.

He stopped in his tracks and turned back around, then he snorted, the side of his mouth twitching. “I think |

should be the one thanking you instead, cause you helpedachieve something too.”

When he didn’t reveal anything further, | nodded awkwardly.

“Uh, okay.”

When he offereda handshake, | initially wanted to reject it, but that would only reveal how shaken up | am

right now, and so | accepted it. His hand swallowed up mine and my stomach clenched tightly as his thumb

grazed over my knuckles, makinginstantly grow weak kneed, and long after he left, all that I could still think

about was him.

Which was why when | returned back into the building and realized that he actually cwith a date, | instantly
