I’m starting to think I needed the break. It’s been days since my night in the dark room and as the time passes, so does my heartbreak. Don’t get me wrong, not hearing from the club made me a little upset, but it’s probably for the best. I no longer wear my Society X necklace. It’s hidden in my underwear drawer at home.

I backed off from Kai because I thought there might’ve been something between me and my mystery man. It’s probably a good thing there’s not. Losing my virginity to someone I don’t know isn’t something to be proud of, but I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything else.

Taking Kai to the Saturday market is going to be fun. I haven’t been to it in a long time. The GPS leads me to an expensive apartment complex in the city. I drive around until I find his unit. It’s definitely bigger than my entire house.

I check my makeup and run a hand through my hair before getting out of the car. Kai opens the door before I even knock. His smile sends butterflies through my stomach. With his hair underneath a baseball cap and dressed in a pair of jeans and a T-shirt, I can’t help but think he looks like a normal guy. Not one who makes a gazillion dollars a year.

He stands in the doorway smiling. “Did you want to come in or should we go?”

I nod toward my car. “We should probably go. It gets really crowded later.”

“All right,” he says, locking the door. “Let’s go.” We get in my car and head toward the market. “Thanks for seeing me again. I honestly didn’t think you’d want to.”

I shrug. “I’ve had a few days to think. I never should’ve said we were too different to work. There’s nothing wrong with being friends.”

“Exactly,” he agrees, giving me that seductive grin of his. “We can always figure out everything else as it comes.”

I smile back. “I’m good with that.” There are cars everywhere, but I’m lucky enough to find a spot that won’t make us walk a mile. My arm brushes against Kai’s as we walk and shivers run down my skin. The next thing I know, he has my hand in his as we cross the street. It feels so good.

“This is awesome,” he says, glancing at all the different vendor booths.

“Wait until you try the cinnamon and sugar roasted almonds. They’re over in that area.” I point at the far side of the market.

My stomach growls just thinking about them and Kai laughs. “Sounds good to me.” His fingers tighten around mine and I smile. We slowly meander through the first row of vendors and I’m glad we’re taking our time. I don’t want the day to end. “Why did you agree to come out with me today?” he asks.

I try to ignore the pang in my chest. “Remember when I told you I had a complicated relationship?” He nods, his brows furrowed with concern. “I think it’s over.
