What if Maddox…?
What if he didn’t want this to last, what if this was a onetime
thing for him?
I didn’t even know what I wanted as my mind filled with
confusion. My heart was heavy with mixed emotions. My
body ached from last night, but my heart hurt.
Tears burned the back of my eyes, and I cupped my face,
feeling stupid. For a moment last night, Maddox was mine,
and I was his.
But that was it.
Just one night.
Maddox wasn’t the type to commit, and I needed more
from him than just a one-night stand. There was no point in
risking our hearts when the thin thread between us had
already snapped.
We couldn’t undo what was done.
I had to walk away; I had to leave, though I would
cherish last night for the rest of my life.
I eased off the bed and quickly wrapped my robe around
me, before walking toward the door. I turned the handle
but never got a chance to walk out. The door was suddenly
slammed shut, and I was torn away from it. The world
spun, and my back slammed against the wall.
Maddox loomed over me, his eyes dark, his dirty blond
hair disheveled, and he was still… naked. I peered up at
him through my lashes, my heart racing. His lips curled,
and he looked enraged.
At me?
Because I was leaving?
Because of last night?
“Where do you think you’re going?” he asked, his voice
dripping with something akin to… possessiveness? His jaw
tightened, and my stomach flipped. “Back to Lucien, so you
can fuck him, too? Was last night not enough?” Maddox
snarled.
