Chapter 127: Two Hotheads.

"What is wrong with you?" Ivy groaned as she threw a birth control pill in her mouth, and downed it with water.

She washed her face, hoping it would ease away some of her emotions. Not that she regretted giving Silas her body again, she just wished she had punished him longer.

She had wanted him to beg, she had wanted to chip off his masculinity. Well, joke's on her, because he didn't care.

Silas had obeyed, he had surrendered without a fight and that melted all of her defeces. She couldn't bear to see in him physical discomfort so she had let him enter her.

She stared at her reflection, wondering how long this push and pull from her was going to go on for.

"It's almost over," she whispered, consoling or assuring herself-she wasn't sure.

Ivy dipped into the warm bath she made for herself and cleaned up. By the time she stepped out of the shower, Silas was already awake.

"Morning beautiful," he said, his lips curved into a smile, his voice sexy.

"Good morning," she replied, her cheeks burning up with heat.

Silas got out of bed and stretched, his manhood hard as rock making her turn away. "Sorry," he chuckled.

Heat coursed through her as she made her way to the closet and dressed in a lilac shirt and grey pants. When she returned to the room, Silas already had his trousers on.

"Ivy," he said softly, causing her to look into his eyes. "Come," he gestured to the bed and she obeyed. When she sat, he kissed her shoulders. "I'm sorry."

She closed her eyes, her body reacting to the touch of Silas's lips as it traveled to her neck.

"It was a stupid mistake, and I promise it won't happen again."

He was sincere, she could feel it, yet she didn't want to believe him. She turned, moving slightly away from his side.

"What else are you hiding?"

His brow rose in surprise and then he sighed. "Nothing. Just Thomas's case." "About that..."

"Yes," he said, then he told her everything.

Ivy was shocked at his words when he was done. "Do you think Mason is really responsible?"

"Absolutely," Silas replied firmly. "We just couldn't prove it. Besides, it wasn't a direct fight."

"But it's still a fight regardless," she said, clenching her fist. "I need to do something about him."

"Pressing charges, yeah?" Silas asked. "I am on it, though Wade hasn't said anything yet. I just want to know if we can do that without an actual confession."
