She stopped then and sent a stern look at me, and truly it took everything inside of me not to respond with a slap. She was so unnecessary and wrongfully hostile that it was fucking grating on my nerves.
“Please wait here,” she said sternly, and it was time for me to roll my eyes. She headed in, and I waited as I had been asked, and then she shut the door behind her.
It took all of three seconds, and she was back out once again looking even more confused than ever.
“You can go in,” she said, perhaps not understanding my connection with the man.
I didn't give a fuck because what I needed and wanted was to see him and speak to him. And so, with breath held, I headed into the dim and warm room and hoped for the best.
Chapter Thirty-One
Drake
I wasn't surprised that she had reached out to me again. I knew I wasn’t insane. There was something here, and whatever the fuck it was, I knew that it haunted her the same way that it haunted me. However, where I was willing to explore it, she was terrified. I understood her reservations, as she had explained it to me. However, I truly didn't give a fuck. It kept me in a bad mood, and so when she came into the room, I wasn't particularly excited to see her. The masseuse kept on with her work, not missing even a beat while silence continued.
I waited, refusing to say a word and giving her free rein to say whatever she wanted. Eventually, though, and when the silence had gone on long enough to irritate me at her lack of a response, I turned to face her. What I met was a sworn gaze glued on the masseuse's hands and how they worked into my skin. She was massaging my shoulders down the arc toward my ass, and this sight, for some reason, completely captured Evelyn’s attention.
She started then at my attention and met my gaze; however, she seemed a bit dazed and wide-eyed.
I looked at the masseuse then and issued out the instruction.
“Can you give us a bit of privacy?” I asked, and she nodded.
“Yes, Sir, I'll be waiting outside. Just let me know when you want me to come in.”
“Okay,” I replied, and she sent a smile as well to Evelyn before heading out. I waited until she had shut the door, and then I laid back down and shut my eyes. My face was turned away from Evelyn, but I was hoping it would give her the confidence to say whatever she wanted to without holding back. However, once again, she remained quiet.
My patience ran thin.
"Please leave if you don't have anything to say," I said, and she immediately reacted.
"I do," she said, "I mean, I'm sorry, I'm just a bit…"
She didn’t completely finish the sentence, but I was immensely curious about what she had been about to say.
"You’re just what?" I asked, and to my surprise, this time around she replied.
"I, uh… you… I’m incredibly interested in what you proposed."
I was almost amused at her, but instead, all I could do was sigh.
"I know I explained to you what was holding me back and why I was hesitating, so I wanted to seek your opinion on the course of action to take."
She stopped then, and I knew that it was because she wanted my full attention and focus on her. So, I turned until I was facing her. My towel, however, and off-course, fell off, exposing me, but I didn't care. We’d fucked each other mindless before, so there was no scandal. As I stared at her gorgeous and stubborn self, however, I couldn’t help but be amazed at how untouchable she still felt. More like a gorgeous illusion than a really actually breathing woman that I had already thoroughly fucked and couldn’t get enough of.
Once again, I understood that very little of any of this made sense.
"What opinion?" I asked. "What's your question?"
She couldn’t quite meet my gaze, which was a bit amusing to me, so I rose to my feet, taking the towel along with me. I wrapped it around my waist, and then I headed over to the armchair by the corner to take my seat.
She watched me, and then she eventually spoke.
“I think it's best I tell Aurora first. To see what she thinks about this. This is the major mental block what's holding me back, and so I—" she stopped then, and it soon became apparent that it was because of the way my expression darkened at her words.
"You’re," I stared at her because I couldn’t believe her words. “You're asking me to take permission first from Aurora before we can fuck?” I asked. For a few seconds, she went quiet as she hopefully contemplated what she was asking, and then, to my shock, she nodded.
I couldn’t believe it, but at the same time, I realized that I liked her even more. This more than anything revealed her innocence and honesty, and fuck, it did something to my heart once again. But it was also quite foolish and amateurish.
