CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

“Why the hell do you keep choosing dresses that sit way too tight on my chest and ass?” Chiara asks while I wait outside of the changing room for her. A small smile dances onto my lips as I stare at the white door she’s standing behind.

“Did I? My bad,” I reply, but I was well aware of what type of dresses I was choosing.

“Yeah, I’m sure it wasn’t on purpose,” she says with a snort, and I grin at her changing room.

“Let me see,” I reply. A moment later, the doorknob rattles, but she doesn’t open it. Instead, she lets out a nervous laugh and a pained sound.

“Nope. You can’t see this. Half of my boobs are spilling out of this dress,” she explains, but now I want to see her even more.

“Sweetheart, let me see,” I say, making sure to pronounce every word firmly. She lets out a sigh before opening the white door I’ve been staring at for too long.

My breath catches in my throat. My heart explodes at the sight of her. My entire being inches toward her because she’s the flame, and I’m merely a moth, drawn to her even though she’s dangerous for me. It isn’t her breasts either, at least not primarily, it’s everything about her appearance. The way the blue satin clings to her curves and her short brown hair frames the sides of her face. Her green eyes and the way they sparkle with uncertainty. Her full, pouty lips I’m having an impossible time trying not to devour with my own. I can’t quite remember why the hell I’m not supposed to kiss her anyway. We both want me to, I know that now since she told me she wanted me to fuck her, and it’s been driving me wild since.

“Would you stop staring at me and say something?” she says with frustration, and I swallow hard.

“I’m trying,” I reply because I really am. I’m trying my bloody hardest to form words, but she’s too beautiful for any of them to come out. I clear my throat and look away to ease a bit of the tension inside of my chest. “If you’re not comfortable in this dress, we will find you another,” I assure her, my traitorous eyes shifting back to her to make thinking an impossible task. The uncertainty I saw in her eyes before only intensifies.

“I’m not uncomfortable, but this is extravagant and a lot. I’m usually a quieter type of person,” she says, and I nod at her words.

With most people, she doesn’t show who she really is. She doesn’t like them enough to be herself around, but I personally don’t mind it one bit because she’s always Chiara with me. She’s my little demon, my Starling, but she’s just Chiara too. A woman with a heart so big, I’m still getting used to the possibility of owning even a slight piece of it. Hell, if she only ever gives me a hair’s width of it, I’ll start considering myself the luckiest man in the world.
