KYRIE I was about to walk the fuck out . I swear I was . But just before I could force myself to turn and leave , fate played its little joke . She spun around , and her body slammed into mine so hard she nearly bounced off . Her headphones slipped off with a smack , tumbling to the floor . Instincts didn't ask for permission because it moved before I did . I found myself holding her from falling . And the second my hands landed on her bare skin , everything went to hell . She was so fucking warm . Her skin hit my chest , and her breasts pressed into me for a split second too long . It felt so perfect , firm , and real . And I swear on everything , I forgot how to breathe . That tiny thong was still dangling from her hand like a goddamn flag of surrender . And her skin ? Fucking velvet and utterly desirable . Was fate imposing this girl on me ? It seemed the universe wanted me to fall for this temptress so badly . We froze , staring at each other like we were both too afraid to say a word . I was drowning in those deep blue eyes of hers that were totally identical to Jessa's . And God help me , for a second , I couldn't tell who the fuck I was holding . Jessa . Eve . Jessa . Eve . God , it felt like an utter sin even comparing both of them . 1/3 7:26 Sun , Sep 21 Chapter 23 My jaw clenched as I felt her chest rising against me , and the heat from her skin crawling under mine . I was a millisecond away from losing every bit of control I'd been clinging to since I opened that fucking door . I couldn't tell if she was trying to scream or apologise , but I could've kissed her senseless right there when her lips parted and the words refused to form . I could've claimed her mouth just to see how much she'd melt ... or resist . Just to feel what kind of fight she had in her . But I fucking couldn't . Because I had no business wanting this girl . She wasn't mine . She wasn't even supposed to be tempting . And that was what made it worse . It was infuriating how she easily made it difficult for me to keep my resolutions . I had found the woman I had been obsessing over for months , yet here I was being drawn to another woman whom I had just met barely three days ago . I felt embarrassed when she was the first to clear her throat and push away from me like I was some kind of plague . She stepped back from me like I burned her , scrambled for the towel , and practically tripped trying to get it around her again , clearly ashamed that I'd just seen something most men would kill to see .. She gulped nervously , " Sorry , " she muttered in a small , shaky voice , almost as if it hurt to speak . " I didn't know anyone was ... I thought ... You didn't knock ... " Her eyes darted everywhere but at me . Her words were a mess . She wouldn't even look at me . Her hands were shaking as she fumbled with the towel . Her face flushed pink , then red , then something close to purple . Full - on mortification . My body still reacted to her touch like a traitor . She took a step back and turned to make a break for the bathroom , probably to hide and melt into 2/3 Chapter 23 the floor , but I caught her wrist and yanked her back before I could stop myself . She gasped again , and this time , it went straight to my dick and it nearly snapped my fucking restraint in two . I was a millisecond away from covering those small lips of hers with mine , just to swallow her gasp . God , I hated myself . Everything about this screamed wrong . And still ... I looked down at her lips . Her goddamn lips . So small . So pink . So fucking soft - looking . I was so fucking close . My fingers tightened just a little on her wrist . I gritted my teeth and forced my voice to sound like steel instead of lust . " Get dressed . Saint wants you at the office . Now .
