CHAPTER 12
AMELIA
A thick layer of silence falls between the two of us as I stare at the door, but for some reason, Adrian is watching me. I look up before slowly dropping my leg from his shoulder, and the sound of a knock comes again, only this time a little louder. Finally, the man who seems confused by something about me stands and sighs. He shifts uncomfortably in his pants and Iâm pretty sure itâs because he came just a second before me. The thought causes my lips to twitch before Adrian is forced to answer the door.
A maid stands there, her cheeks pink, and itâs evident she heard us. Oh well, it will just make our story more believable. I donât have it in me to be embarrassed right now, Iâm too focused on standing to fix my dress and readjusting my underwear while Adrian talks to the maid, holding the door open enough that he can be seen but I canât.
âThe Mistress is wondering where you are,â I hear.
Adrian responds, âTell her I will be there shortly.â
âYes, sir.â
I hear her walk off but before he gets a chance to close the door Iâm pushing past him, ignoring the way he calls my name in concern. He doesnât chase after me, he likely canât, considering he has to talk to his mother. I should stay, itâs part of my agreement, but I canât. Not after what just happened, what I just let him do.
As Iâm calling Russell to come pick me up in front of the house, I canât help but feel nauseous. Not because I didnât enjoy the feeling of Adrianâs hands on me, or in me. No, I feel sick because I did like it. God, I liked it so fucking much. I want more, I wanted him to keep going until we were so tangled up, we didnât know who was who, or where we ended. I am disgusted by my own unending greed.
I donât even love him, but my lust knows no bounds. I also realize with stark clarity that I donât hate Adrian anymore; I like spending time with him more often than not. We get along without even trying most of the time. Our fights are massive when they happen though, and they leave me feeling shaky, something I never thought was possible for someone I felt so little for.
I rush through the party and nearly crash into someone in my haste. Thankfully I donât, because I realize the two people I almost hit are Adrianâs parents.
âOh! Mr. and Mrs. Saunders,â I say quickly, nervously, hoping to god my makeup isnât absolutely ruined. âI hope youâre well. Iâm Amelia Cormier. We havenât had the chance to meet yet.â
âAh yes, my son has been keeping you to himself,â Mr. Saunders says, his tone mildly bored but his eyes appraising as they drag along my dress.
âNo worries, dear. Adrian tends to keep to himself. Heâs quite the black sheep of the family,â Adrianâs mother titters, but there is a sting to her words.
