‘Oh stop it, you are going.’
‘I can get you in even if I don’t come.’
‘I’m not going without you, but I’m going, so so are you.’
‘Things aren’t great with Tommy. I don’t know if being in a room with scantily clad women around him will be a fun evening for me.’
Macey sat next to me and wrapped an arm around my waist. ‘Do you think you’ll marry Tommy? Is he your end game?’
The thought of marrying him was like lead in my stomach. Not a great sign. ‘I don’t know.’
‘Listen Katie, I love you, but Tommy isn’t the settling down type. Have fun with him, enjoy the parties and events, and then find yourself a good man when he cheats for the last time you can handle. Take what you can while you can and then leave him as a memory. A crazy part of your life.’
She pulled me to my feet and nodded at the dress. ‘But for now, two can play at his game. Go to the opening looking fucking bomb and remind him what he’s missing. Make him salivate.’
I still hadn’t told her about my stalker. I wanted to, but something stopped me every time I went to bring it up. Like talking about him would make it real. If I brought him up, I’d have to face the reality of what I’d done with him. Hell, I’d let him feed me his cum. It was fucked up.
Worse, I’d enjoyed every moment.
And I needed more.
Wanting him made me hate myself. I had a boyfriend. I shouldn’t be wanting anyone, far less a masked man who filled my head with filthy words.
‘Okay,’ I said, ‘I’ll try on the dresses and I’ll come to the opening on the weekend, but I think I’m going to go home tonight.’
‘Why? It’s late already. You may as well stay.’
Because I want to go home and see if my stalker will make me come so hard I forget who I am...
‘Just needing my bed.’
‘Fine, but text me when you get in, okay?’
The light from my car headlights flashed over the aged exterior of my home as I pulled up the long, tree-lined driveway. Relief washed through me as the empty driveway came into view. No Tommy. I sat in the car and texted Macey, letting her know I was home safely, while peering out at the dark-soaked woods that surrounded my home. When I purchased the house, the woods had felt like protection, wrapping me up in the isolation that I craved from my changing family.
Before my father died, my life was consistent, but not good. His death, Cameron's marriage, and my mother's return brought unexpected changes.
But recently the isolation had felt more like it was crushing me than helping me.
Switching the car off, I grabbed my keys and phone and made to open the door when my phone buzzed against my palm.
I’d been expecting Macey’s name to pop up, but it hadn’t.
The text was from a number I didn’t know.
Welcome home, Sweetness.
An icy shiver ran down my back as I glanced around, unable to see the masked man anywhere. My pulse quickened as my palms grew clammy, my thumbs hovering over the keyboard.
I could lock the doors and turn my car on and drive to Cam’s. Or back to Macey’s. I could get away.
Another text popped onto the screen as I sat staring at it.
Do you want to play a game?
I swallowed hard as a flicker of heat warmed my stomach.
What kind of game?
