"You’re not getting aith that shitty goodbye" He calls, stalking over to me

"What do you wan--"

His hands circle ainstmy breath away He’s waro, I almost stumble backwards The kiss was that intense

"I’s harder for you, but I’" He smiles and you’d swear I didn’t say a word to upset hiht"

Feeling rather defiant, I put ?"

He flicks his brows once, cockily "You will be"

I arch an eyebrow

"Me" He adds with a wink "I’ll see you later"

I watch the car froht Just like that the frustration I feel toward Seth is gone All it took was one kiss and I’ve forgiven him I’m like putty when it comes to him and he knows exactly how to ain and I’ve run out of things to do I cleaned, had a shower and watched a movie I peel ood I approach the bed and kickup the bag and du to fall out is one of Seth’s hoodies He’d forgotten about it and left it onjust in case Dad saw it He didn’t and he didn’t suspect anything the next day either Not that he would hter have sex that’d be aard I take my phone from my bedside table and dial Seth’s nuet Seth’s address off of hi he has it Will Seth mind if I show up at his house to drop off his hoodie? A ent through in Concord I know I can wait until he gets here, but I don’t want to I want to see him

"Hey, Olly?" Dad answers

"Yeah Dad, it’s etcabin rattle and bang in the background "It’s one-zero-three Promenade Way"

"Really? Like the Promenade Way up on the hills?"

Prohtly out of town I’ve been up there twice and if I thought Selena’s house was aious palaces up there

"That’s the one I gotta go sweety, twoet soroan throwing my phone onto my bed

I frown How does Seth live on Pro hih to cover even a quarter of the cost of the houses up there My curiosity is too strong to not go and take a look for myself so I slip into my pair of tennis shoes and throw a thin, white jacket on over ht pink cotton short-shorts out of the house, but the weather is quite warrab Seth’s jacket, head out the door and get in ain

Still no answer

The closer I get to his house the more I think this is a bad idea Seth is a very closed off personhe isn’t going to appreciateup like this But, as much as I want to turn around, I can’t take my foot of the accelerator

Soon, I pull up in front of house one-zero-three andaddress I survey the huge, two-storey house and its beautiful dark chocolate bricks On the second floor, there’s a small white stone balcony with small white outdoor furniture The house looks dead quiet and absolutely peaceful I’ve never seen a house so breathtaking It’s like it belongs isolated and surrounded by gorgeous, lush rab his jacket, slip out of the car and slide reen and I curl e to run barefoot over it There’s no fence blocking outside intruders fro in--not that this place would have people like that, I suppose My shoes stick to the pretty chocolate stepping tiles and past the blooarden I stop to look at the flowers, there are so ainst the brown bricks

"Can I help you?" A husky, wo the jacket toin a wide, cane chair I relax a little, but when her espresso dark eyes glower atreturns

"Hi," I say as politely as I can I step closer "Does Seth Marc live here?"

"Have you coarette and htly as she does so

What the hell kind of question is that?

"NoI’htly, but she cuts me off

"What’s your name? Tiffany? No, you look like a Natasha"

I know I’ the slur attached to her words I shake htens her beautiful, caramel dress-suit and struts down the steps to tower over me

"I’m Olivia" I state

"And have you come for sex, Olivia?"

My lips part as my senses and every inch of my skin flood with nervous heat "Ito--"

I hold the hoodie out and she cuts ain "So you haven’t had sex with my son?"

"No--well, I--ait Did you say son?"
