In case you follow both of my blogs, just know the teases aren't always the same. The tease on Sunday's Elle Chadou blog won't be the same as the one I am about to post here. Enjoy!
Excerpt:
“I
noticed Syd still isn’t speaking to you. Do you know she shared a suite with
Seth and I last night? Thank God there is a sitting room because she passed out
on one sofa and I passed out on the other. I couldn’t sleep with Seth, not when
he was out cold due to a dose of hillbilly heroin. I could kill that fucker.”
“You
can always leave, you know. I can call up Dominic and get you two separate
suites if you like.”
Talia
eyed the cigarette he was smoking with unfulfilled wanting before she focused
on his gaze again. “That’s all right. It will be just an extra expense and
besides, if it ever got that bad, I would just shack up with Misty and Keren.
They’re decent enough…for biker chicks.”
Kaz
took mercy on Talia and offered her his cigarette which she snatched quickly
and took a long drag before she inhaled and exhaled slowly. “I almost forgot
what these tasted like. I have been smoke-free for almost two years and now
look what my boyfriend has reduced me to but…it’s like that song. I can’t break
free from him and I hate it but at the same time, if he was so unbearable,
couldn’t I just cut loose of him?”
“No, because
love doesn’t work that way and we both know it…don’t we, Kasper?”
Both
Kaz and Talia turned to see Syd standing there with her camera still in her
hands.
“Do
you mind if I take this?” Talia inquired as she held up Kaz’s cigarette.
“Nope.”
“Cool,
we’ll chat later.” She walked off quickly and soon it was just him and Syd,
face to face.
“Listen,
I know I fucked up last night—”
“Why
are you blaming yourself when it is my
problem?” she questioned in a bitter tone. “I’m the one who can’t accept you
aren’t ready to be serious about me and it just scares me because I don’t want
to lose you. You don’t have to be with me—hell, Talia was drooling over your
every word and she’s a good person but anyone with half a brain can see she is
looking for an out. She doesn’t really want to be with Seth but at the moment,
she doesn’t have a choice.”
Syd
walked closer until they were less than five feet from one another. “I don’t
want to lose you, Kaz. It’s not worth it and I can deal with your problems but
you need to let me in and stop shutting me out because you think I will just
fall apart and not be able to take what you can dish out.
“I’m
not a child. I entered this relationship with my eyes open and I knew what I
would have to face. Please don’t do this to me and don’t try to minimize what
we have. I love you and I know you
love me too but if you can’t say it then I can deal with that and I won’t ever
push you to say anything before you’re ready. Are you feeling me?”
He
pulled her into an embrace and held her tightly. “Yeah, I’m feeling you.
But…the only thing is I do love you, Sydney. I love you so much and I don’t
want to lose you over words I was too much of a coward to say. Do you forgive
me?”
She
smiled into his eyes and his heart melted. Everything he’d planned with his
head had all been forgotten about because his dick was now firmly in charge.
Kaz
knew her game and yet, he still couldn’t bring himself to care. This chick had
him utterly and thoroughly pussy-whipped; if that weren’t bad enough, she had
him heart-whipped too because he couldn’t think about being with anyone but her
and to a man like him, that was not only a scary thought but one, which made
him wonder if he’d ever had control over this particular situation?
To Be Continued...
Have a great weekend everyone!
