REMEDY

“Forty-eight hours is all it takes…”

My fingers stopped twirling around my curls and I lifted a brow, turning my head towards Lathan, who quietly sang along with the music Tessa had connected to the car’s speaker.

For the past ten minutes, we rode in Lathan’s souped-up black on black Jeep, heading towards an unknown destination.

Well, it was only unknown to me and Tessa, who sat in the backseat quietly.

When Lathan normally chauffeured me around, he drove one of the inconspicuous black SUVs parked in my four-car garage.

Today was my first-time riding in his personal vehicle and I had to admit that I was enjoying the experience. The Jeep was lifted several inches higher off the ground than normal, so I’d needed help climbing into the passenger seat. Once settled, my eyes took in the black and chrome interior that looked like one of the vehicles on those popular car renovation shows.

Tessa was used to riding in it, so she’d hopped in with ease, immediately leaning between the front seats to plug her phone into the charger port.

Since leaving my house, I’d alternated between trying to figure out where we were going and watching him. He seemed so at ease, maneuvering through the streets in a slightly slouched position that only increased my attraction to him. His left arm rested on the door, propped up so his hand had easy access to toying with his beard. The other was tossed lazily over the top of the steering wheel, using the bottom of his palm to navigate rather than his fingers.

Sensing my eyes on him, he looked over, lips lifting in a smile that caused an inferno down below. Turning back to face the road, he had the nerve to chuckle.

The asshole was fully aware of what he’d caused.

To me, the progression of our relationship felt swift and I still hadn’t had enough time to settle into it.

One moment, I was doing my best to remain distant and the next thing I knew, I was riding his face in a hotel in Huntsville.

After our sexual relationship began, I eagerly gave into the lust, feeding a physical need for release I’d denied for so long.

But this attraction I felt for him now was… different, because it had nothing to do with the ache between my thighs that flared to life each time he was around. This ache firmly lived in my chest and it was such a foreign feeling that I feared speaking or even thinking about it too much would jinx us.

God, I was terrified of what I felt.

I did nothing in half measures, so when Lathan cracked open the safe around my heart and snuck in, the immediate feelings I experienced were too big, too soon, and overwhelming.

Times like these, I wish I hadn’t pushed away every single person I cared about because advice about how to navigate this shit would be so helpful right now.

I was in uncharted territory.

Or up shit’s creek without a paddle, as my grandma used to say.
