Breathing heavily after their last bout of sex, Bruce buried his nose in the hair at the nape of Pru’s neck and inhaled her sweet scent. Sated, he savoured the taste of her on his tongue as she snuggled into his arms. He fit against her perfectly, body moulding with hers. Muttering under her breath, she wiggled her hips, brushing his cock into readiness.

He placed his hand on her leg, stroking the soft flesh of her thigh, enjoying the feel of her lush curves beneath his fingers. Glancing down at his hand, he admired the contrast of their skins, his pale and hers milk chocolate. Loving this closeness with her, he imagined their bodies fit together in the same way they would fit each other in their daily life. He admired this woman so much. Her strength and confidence appealed to him, her demanding nature aroused him.

Considering what her daily life must be like, his thoughts darkened, wiping away his feelings of bliss. She was a sophisticated woman, a professional woman. What could she possibly see in him? She dealt with boardrooms and meetings and corporate executives every day. While his office consisted of the van currently parked outside her home.

How could they really make a life with each other? He shook his head, or more to the point, should they even try? His cock deflated as sadness overwhelmed him. He probably couldn’t have her anyway, so warring with himself wouldn’t solve a thing. When this was over, he would move on, continue with his own life and pretend this weekend never happened.

“By the way, who sent the fruits?” Her words distracted him from his troubled thoughts. Her voice sounded tired, her manner relaxed and languid. He should enjoy this short time with her and leave the regrets for later. There would be plenty of time to mope.

Recalling the name scrawled on the note, his mind quickly shifted from despair to jealousy. Pru was a beautiful woman, smart and funny. Anger suffused him and quickly transformed into agony. It should have occurred to him that she already had someone. Trying to dismiss the hurt, he thought at least now he would have an excuse. “Peyton Wagner,” he mumbled in displeasure, pain constricting his chest.

Her voice amused, she mentioned. “Oh, of course. Peyton always provides what I need.” She revealed no other details, no other explanation forthcoming.

His face heated up with anger, a painful distinction from the tightening of his chest. He wanted Prudence for himself, wanted to be the only one she desired. But he couldn’t fight against someone he didn’t know. Or for someone who didn’t want him. The conflicting thoughts made him dizzy, causing pain to spike through his head. Why did he feel like he’d lost out on someone special?

“Oh?” He closed his eyes in disappointment, needing to get himself back under control. This was stupid. He barely knew Pru and yet he had the irrational urge to rip this Peyton person apart.

“Yeah,” Pru began again. “We’re very close, grew up together actually.
