Chapter Eight
Ivyâs car was parked across the street from Cliffâs house, just far enough down the road not to be noticed.
At eight thirty on the dot, she saw his car pull out of the driveway.
She waited patiently, hoping the trainerâs car didnât follow. Five minutes later, there was still no sign of another car leaving the house.
It was the moment of truth.
She picked up her phone and dialed Cliff.

I pace in my bedroom, practically jumping out of my skin.
With Cliff gone and Mellors working in the garage, now is the time for me to march right down there and tell him itâs over. But my body is still humming from the workout, still slick with perspiration, still burning from his touch when he guided me through the burpees and box jumps.
I donât trust myself.
Instead, I take a shower.
I have been conditioned like a dog. Having worked out with him for an hour, I now want to fuck him. Itâs that simple.
It would be so much simpler if I could avoid seeing him altogether. But this was my plan, and now Iâm stuck with it.
Maybe Iâm not giving myself enough credit. Now that Iâve made up my mind, I will be fine. I didnât feel the same pull toward him during the workout. Yes, I still think he is maddeningly sexy. And, yes, I still have a vividâway too vividâsense memory of his touch.
But Iâm done. I know in my heart I am done.
I run my hands over my body, skimming my breasts, my belly, until I reach between my legs. I touch myself, but itâs as if my flesh is numb. I feel nothing, and know I wonât feel anything until I have closure.
I do a quick shampoo, then quickly dry off and dress in jeans and a plain black V-neck T-shirt.
With my hair still wet, I slip into my Uggs and hurry down the stairs.

Ivy waited for Cliff to answer his phone, her eyes fixed on the driveway. She had come too far to have that muscle head leave early.
Stay, stay, stay.
âCliff, itâs meâIvy,â she said in a rush. Slow down. You sound like a crazy person. âI left my laptop at your place this morning. As soon as I realized it I came back here to get it, but Connieâs not answering the door.â
âI just left the house. Sheâs there. Maybe sheâs in the shower.â
âIâm sorry. Can you come back and let me in? Itâs going to be really hard to get any work done without that laptop.â
He sighed deeply. Had she ever been more of an annoyance to him? Probably not. But her plummeting stock is just temporary. In about ten minutes, if all goes well, she will beâas Dukes had phrased itâworth her weight in gold.
âFine,â Cliff says. âIâll be right there.â
* * * *
I walk around the side of the house and hear the same pounding, hammering sounds I heard last week.
The garage is wide open. Peeking inside, I see him once again on the ladder.
