chapter 12

MARCUS

Yeah, I did not sleep, let me tell you. That couch went from comfortable to painful real quick. I wasn’t going to sleep on Dill’s bed. I wasn’t going to even talk about the fact that it didn’t look like she’d opened the door to her parents’ bedroom in ages. It was definitely the couch for me.

Because Harlow really did need to be alone. The last thing I wanted to do was leave her, but I knew, looking at her face, that she needed me to leave. It killed me.

I lay awake for hours, going back and forth between replaying it all in my head, feeling the kind of joy I didn’t think I’d ever get to feel again, and then thinking about how badly I must have fucked it up, and feeling like I deserved far worse than the pain of knowing I might lose Harlow forever.

Had it hurt her, what we did? She’d said she’d needed it. And she’d meant it—I could see it in her face. I kept telling myself I had to be sure that it wouldn’t do even worse emotional damage than I’d already done, I had to be sure, but in the end, was I? Or did I just finally lose control and give in to what I wanted, what I’ve always wanted? And, in the process, did I screw this up beyond all repair?

I’m not used to questioning myself like this, and I don’t fucking like it. Most things are simple. Harlow isn’t.

I’m still lying here, trying to figure it out. It’s morning now. Gray, still, the storm on its last legs. It’s soggy and wet outside, and I couldn’t give a damn. All I’m thinking about is Harlow.

The sight of her naked body.Jesus, the sight of her. The way her eyes get even bigger as she comes. The way she moves for me. The way I can feel it when she’s about to lose control.

The way she tastes.

I said once before that I am not the strong one. I guess I proved that last night. And Harlow knew it. She knew what she was doing, knew I wouldn’t be able to hold out forever. She’d already taken me, body and soul, and she made damn sure that I took her physically. And I don’t regret a thing I said or did, because it was all true. Because she is mine, just like I’m hers.

But after that? Upstairs?

That was different.

I know that was different.

That might have been further than we should have gone. Because she let me make love to her, and she made love back, and I don’t think either of us were entirely prepared for that. Even though I’d dreamed of exactly that, for five long years. In a million different ways. And it was better than anything I could have imagined.

I think I always knew this, even way back then, but now? Harlow Chase is the only one for me. As a man, I begin and end with her. I have become who I am because of her.
