This is a bad idea, a total lapse of judgment. Goes against all my boundaries for us. I was staying firm with my standpoint, but I was cracking, and he offered me a loophole, a promise of no complications. The fact that he may be right that we wonât last the next 18 years without slipping up in our attraction was a fair point, which had already crossed my mind. So might as well just cross this off the list.
I know this is not one of my smarter ideas, and I admit there is faulty logic behind needing to get something out of your system. It normally never works. It didnât work last time. Probably wonât work this time, and if I make it to a next time, it will still fail.
But this scenario is too tantalizing, too once-in-a-lifetime. Maybe that is my brain on overdrive, my body just craving to be touched as it hasnât been since that night.
Curiosity, because maybe it feels different since having had a baby. And in this twisted world, it is Leo that eases me away from that thought. The man I was last with is the man to welcome me back to the world of Oâs.
My curiosity of what the world looks like if I cross the line is too strong. My restraint has been granted a break.
Taking a deep breath, I let the keycard go over the door and the little light flashes green. As soon as I enter the room, I canât help but smile to myself. Leave it to Leo to get an expensive suite when a closet would have done the job just fine.
Looking around, I debate where to sit or lay and be waiting.
For him.
Purposely, I went ahead to the room and made Leo phone the sitter to let her know we would be slightly later. I didnât want to walk in with him waiting. No, I need to set the tone.
Already, though, my heart is racing and my core is tensing. Debating if I should be fully clothed when he arrives, I look into the mirror and see my dress and simple heels. It isnât for him. The forest green lace bra underneath may just be for him.
Taking a deep breath, I move the off-the-shoulder sleeve a little more off the shoulder and throw my heels off. Then I turn around and debate between the chair, the bed, or to wait by the window. Quickly I go to close the first layer of curtains at the window but sitting in the middle of the bed wins.
My eyes gently close when I hear Leo putting his key card to the door. Nerves shoot up from my stomach to my throat, taking a pit stop at my heart. The moment I hear the door click open, my eyes shoot up.
And he is devastating. Handsomely devastating.
All night he has looked like this, complete with a little stubble on his face.
He walks slowly towards the bed with that brash grin, that cunning look, the one that says he knows what he is doing.
