All of Me

Melissa

Back in our hotel room, I’ve locked the doors and pulled the curtains. Thankfully, the windows have been replaced with sealed glass. Derek texted he’d meet me in the lobby in ten minutes, and after asking me fifty times if I would be okay, Elaine finally left to spend the night with Patrick.

It only gave me a few moments to touch up my makeup and smooth a brush through my hair. I changed into a thigh-high, silky black dress with a plunging back that goes all the way to my waist in a deep V. My hair is twisted up in a knot showing off the lines of my shoulder blades.

I’d blame the heat in the city, but the truth is in spite of everything happening around us, my heart thrums at the thought of seeing Derek again. I want to allure him. I want him to crave me. I want him counting the seconds until we’re alone again together… Just like I do.

My cheeks pink at these thoughts. We’ve only known each other a few days, but when I’m with him, I’m a swirling mix of bravery and nervous excitement. He doesn’t push—he doesn’t have to. My insides move to him, and his strength provides the most erotic sense of safety.

Waiting by my closed window, I try to remember him as a stranger to me. I can’t do it. We’ve shared too much. He knows everything I’m fighting, and he’s committed to helping me win.

Not only that, he’s the most extravagant lover I’ve ever had. He’s curious and exploring and dominant and surprisingly kinky. He puts me in control while at the same time taking control away, but I’m never afraid or intimidated.

Is it possible to fall in love so fast? I don’t know. I’ve always approached relationships slowly, deliberately. The uncertainty of my life caused me to take a chance with him that first night. I believed I didn’t have the luxury of time, but what started as a final, heavenly indulgence has grown into something much more. Still, even now I can’t allow myself to be caught up in dreams of a future with him.

Glancing at the clock, I see it’s time to go. Taking a moment, I smooth deep red lipstick over my lips. It’s a classic color that matches my complexion, but I don’t want to see blood on my lips. I grab a tissue and roughly wipe the color away. Instead I opt for a fleshy pink, which compliments my smoky eye makeup. I don’t want to be a vamp tonight. I want to be myself.

Riding in the elevator, I only briefly realize Derek still doesn’t know my room number or my last name. It’s incredible in view of all the things he does know about me. Tonight is the night we’ll remove every safety net. Throw caution to the wind.

The doors open, and as promised, he’s waiting for me in the lobby. My breath catches. He’s gorgeous in charcoal slacks, a thin black sweater, and a light blazer.
