RULE #22: LISTEN TO WHAT SHE WANTS
Ronan
âI donât want to go home.â She whines from the seat next to me as our plane flies over the Atlantic.
âIâll bring you back,â I whisper, kissing the side of her head. Her hair smells so good, like lavender and mint. Itâs a scent Iâve come to love in just under a week. Everything about her is familiar to me now, like sheâs imprinted herself on my skin, already a staple in my everyday life.
Something is off with Daisy today, though. I noticed it yesterday, and Iâm afraid that when she says she doesnât want to go back home, what she really means is that she doesnât want to return to reality.
For me, Iâm nervous that this dream ends in Paris, and the moment we return to our regular lives, sheâll lose interest. The novelty of a much older man will wear off and the electric connection we share will fizzle.
Itâs hard to trust your emotions when luxury is involved. Is she truly that interested in me? If I couldnât fly her in private jets or put her up in a penthouse suite, would she still see a spark between us?
On top of all of that, Iâm afraid that Daisy is still dealing with so much residual trauma from losing her mother, and if thatâs the case, sheâs probably so desperate for an escape, sheâll do anything to get it.
Either way, Iâm nervous. This week has been like a fantasy, but thereâs a hard road ahead for both of us, if weâre going to turn this dream into a reality.
When the flight attendant comes by with our drinks, Daisy perks up, clutching affectionately to my arm. She clearly loves the idea of making this woman jealous, and Iâm not going to stop her.
âDid you have a nice stay in Paris, Mr. Kade?â the woman asks.
âYes, we did. Thank you.â
âJust make up one bed please,â Daisy interjects.
The attendant forces a smile as she nods. âYes, maâam.â
Then Daisy links her fingers with mine and grins sweetly in return. A moment later, the woman is gone, and Iâm laughing to myself. Itâs cute that sheâs so possessive. Is she going to be like this back home? If I come into Salacious, will she still cling to my arm or will she be embarrassed to be seen with me? Being around strangers is one thing, but showing her interest in a much older man around people she knows is a different story.
âIs that how youâre going to be at Salacious?â I ask, my brow furrowed, and my voice laced with a hint of humor.
She takes a sip of her champagne and before setting it down, she scrunches up her face in contemplation. âI guess the real question is why youâre coming to the club in the first place.â
âWell, sometimes I go because I like being there. I donât always go for the sex.â
Her brows are arched expectantly, as if sheâs waiting for me to continue, so I doâbecause I know what it is sheâs really asking.
