Chapter 109

Brooklyn

Fourteen minutes later, I study myself in the mirror, my stomach a mess of butterflies.

Honestly? The lingerie does look good on me. I turn to admire the way the cheeky little bottom of the lace teddy curves around my ass.

I look-well, way sexier than I thought I would.

Suddenly, a light knock comes at the door and my eyes go wide.

My fifteen minutes are up.

"Just a second!" I call, diving for the bed and grabbing the requested Prada shoes from their place on the duvet. Pulling them on, I kick the empty lingerie box under my bed and turn towards the door.

I take a moment to close my eyes and take a deep breath.

You're the boss, Brooklyn, I tell myself, my heart pounding in my ribcage. You're in charge. Not him.

Lena is whining inside of me, practically keening at the thought of what might happen tonight. She's more than ready to satisfy our heat.

The knock comes again.

"Come in," I call. My voice comes out calmer, deeper than I expected.
