CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

Convincing my father to allow Carla to come to Boston with me had not been easy. Hell, he hadn’t wanted me to go. He was still determined that I would be attending Columbia in the fall, so that I could sit at his feet and learn the business.

If it weren’t for my mother, my spot at Harvard would be gone. But a generous donation from her held it. For now, at least.

“Wow,” Carla breathed out as I brought her to the edge of the Harvard gate. “This is like very stereotypical college.”

I chuckled despite myself. Carla had been briming with excitement since we got off the train. I’d planned to drive, but whoever had knifed my tires had fucked up the rims. I was pissed, but Carla’s excitement forced me to put it at the back of my mind.

“Why are we here again?” she asked.

Once more, I had taken her hand in my own without a second thought. Last night, I’d slept in Carla’s bed again, appreciating the softness of her body against my own. We hadn’t slept together since the first time but sleeping together in bed felt more intimate in a different way.

I led Carla through the campus with ease, knowing exactly where to go. I should. I’d spent every summer here at different camps back before my father decided that higher education was mostly a waste of my time and talent.

“I’m working on a research paper,” I told her. “I need to meet with one of the professors here.”

Carla’s brow rose. “I thought you just finished high school.”

I chuckled. “I did,” I told her. “I was only going part-time since I had plenty of credits to graduate. I filled the rest of the time with this side project.”

This was the first time I’d talked about this with anyone else but my parents. And neither of them really understood what I was doing.

“What’s the research about?”

“Math,” I told her. Carla’s nose wrinkled, and I tried not to laugh at the expression on her face. Her eyes were looking around campus, taking everything in as we walked. I expected her to stare around instead of asking more questions, but as always, she surprised me.

“What about math?”

I stopped slightly, bringing her closer to my body. “Are you sure you want to know?” I asked. “It’s pretty boring.”

“A lot of things are boring. That doesn’t mean that I shouldn’t learn about them.”

I couldn’t stop myself from leaning down to press a kiss against her lips. She sighed as I cupped the back of her head, bringing her body closer to my own. Carla was wearing one of her miniskirts and a tiny crop top. The feeling of her skin against my hands made me hard, and it took everything in me to pull away from her.

When I did, her eyes were slightly dazed, and her small tongue licked her bottom lip. “I’m working with a software engineer to create a database that uses biographical medical data to discover and alert people of markers who might have genetic illnesses.
