Defending the Post
Marquise
Relationships? Not for me. “I love you” leads to people leaving. I don’t do heartbreak, and I definitely don’t do commitment. As long as everyone knows their role, we’re good.That was my world. Until Erin stormed onto the sideline.
She’s not like the others. From her bold tattoos to her sharp tongue, nothing about her fits into the boxes I’ve built for women. She challenges me. Exposes parts of me I’ve buried. And worse? She’s not here for casual anything.
She asked for friendship. But I want more. Even if I have no clue what that means.
Erin
L.A. was supposed to be a fresh start. An exciting step up in the music industry. When Jhae offered me the role of creative director and assistant, I said yes without hesitation. Free rent. Creative freedom. A dream opportunity.
Then I met him.
Marquise is cocky, frustrating, and magnetic. He gets under my skin in all the worst and best ways. I see the walls he hides behind, even if he’d rather drown in attention than admit he’s afraid. I offered friendship. He demanded more.
Now, I just have to keep my boundaries in place. Easy, right?
