Jo’s POV
I stormed out the building rushing to my car. I opened the door quickly and I slide in, throwing my bag on the passenger seat.
Right now, I have mixed feelings, I am relieved that the meeting went well, but my blood is boiling inside.
I looked behind me at least ten times to see if he is coming after me, I wish he had. I want to scream my frustration, I want to ask him the question that bothers me for a while now “why I can’t be loved?”
I sighed for the nth time, I need to get out of here, I need to relax, to sleep, I need to forget.
My phone started ringing and I am not in the mood to answer, but I slowly took it out, I have to admit I still hope it’s him.
Olivia ’s name pops on my screen and I picked up the call. I t
Alex’s POV Probably at some point I am going to kill Damien, for dragging me here, but right now I have to admit this place is Heaven. I took a sip of my Bahama Mama cocktail while I am enjoying the sunset from my hammock. I like the sound of the waves washing the shore, I like how they never give up, coming again and again. I inhaled the salty breeze, it’s so peaceful here. I can sense the calm before the storm I checked the time and it’s still early, she has a late flight and I still don’t know what I want to do. A part of me wants to have this woman, to make her mine, she denied me and she challenged me to pursue her and what can I say, I kind of like it. I am used with women who are fighting for my attention, who throw themselves at my feet but not her and probably that’s why I am acti
Jo’s POV The sun is bathing the room and I struggle to open my eyes, I am afraid that everything was just a dream. The side of the bed where he stayed last night it’s cold and I can’t help feeling disappointed. I hope everything was real. As I move to his side his perfume it’s still lingering on the pillow and now I know for sure he was here. I closed my eyes and I inhaled his scent, if I can’t be with him at least I can enjoy his smell a little bit longer. I checked my phone and I have a message from Sam: “Hey, Good morning! Call me” I don’t want to leave the bed but I know sooner or later I have too. I dialed Sam’s number who picked up instantly. “Hey, Good morning “ I said lazily.
Jo’s POV I am going downstairs for dinner. After crying the whole afternoon, I realized that everything happened because of me. Now I had two options to lay low or to show him what he lost or better said what he could have had. Anyway after changing my mind several times I chose the third option: Be myself. I am wearing a green midi backless dress that embrace my body perfectly. A little revealing, but not to much. I look classy in a sexy way. My blond wavy hair it’s loose on my back and I think I put a little bit too much of make up. But who cares, tonight I am myself, better said my new self. The one who laughs, who flirts, who dances and most of it who pretends that everything is perfect. Yeah that’s me Josephine Jackson and my world is pretty perfect. As I am coming down the stairs I can see Damien’s eyes getting wide o
Jo’s POV “Come on, let’s get you to bed, it’s getting late” he told me softly, waking towards the hotel, but I am not moving. I still have no idea what I am going to do but going to bed it’s not something I consider. I have a feeling that “get you to bed” it’s not close to what I have in mind. Blame his eyes, his dimples, his God body, blame my hormones, I want him. I can’t get him out of my mind. All I want is to touch me, to kiss me, I want one of those passionate nights that everyone has at least once in life. I don’t care if I am acting like a spoiled child, I really don’t. Right now I wish I had more experience, I wish I knew how to make myself more available, to make him under
Jo’s POV After our encounter with Michael and Robert everyone decided that it was time to called off the night. I looked around and see my friends happy and I feel a little jealous of their happiness. Sam is holding Damien’s hand and she giggles every time he says something to her. Olivia is with Josh smiling at each other, they do look cute together. Andrea is telling Matt something and I hope they end up together. Matt seems really nice and she deserves a nice guy. I, on the other hand, I am walking behind them. Alex hasn’t said anything to me after talking to Michael. He hasn’t even look at me and I wonder what happened, between them, what Michael said that he ignores me completely. I am
Jo’s POV I heard him humming before he bended down and pressed his lips on mine. He kissed me gently, taking his time and I am enjoying every second. He looks deep into my eyes and after hemakes sure I know what is going to happen next, he takes my hand and leads the way to his room. I gulped down while my body is following him willingly. I imagined this moment at least a hundred times but now I have a feeling it’s going to be better. Every time he touches me my heart beats so fast that I almost forget to breathe. Alex pushed me gently to his bed while his eyes are traveling down taking in every inch of my body. I opened my legs seductive while I am biting my lip and I can see the sparkle in his eyes.
Alex’s POV I keep swearing under my breath, what a fucked up situation I got myself into.I really thought she is going to be just like the others, casual sex and nothing more.But how wrong was I. Now I can’t stop from wanting her, it’s like my body is addicted to hers. She is lying in my arms completely naked and innocent. How can a person look innocent after having sex. I keep cursing under my breath and I am surprised of how many cursing words I know. From the moment I saw her wearing that red thing all I could think was to mark her, I thought it’s going to be just sex, but the way she kissed me, the way her legs opened to invite me , the way her body started shaking at my touch it made me realize it’s going to be more than just sex.
Jo’s POV I sighed relieved entering my room. Now I am safe, far away from him even though all I want is to run back to his arms. I feel like I left my heart with Alex, but I had to do it. It was everything I imagined and more. I knew it from the beginning it’s going to be just one night and thanks to Damien’s call, I’ve got to leave, skipping the awkward moment. It was simple. No goodbyes no tears no drama. It was my choice so I’ll do it all over again if I had too. A single tear escaped from my eyes. That’s all I am going to shed, not like he doesn’t deserve more it’s because I have to move on.
