Chapter 56

“Shouldn’t you have locked the door if you were inside?” He asks as he ignores me in my towel and walks inside.

I snap my lips tightly together and show him the finger. His back is to me now, and I gasp when I see him pulling his t-shirt off his body.

“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” I demand. The last time he did something like that, I completely lost my mind. I didn’t want to get lost in that scar on his chest for a second time. Something happened to me whenever I saw it. I couldn’t risk that, especially not when we were alone, and my mother was supposedly getting married to his father.

“Taking a shower,” he tells me as his hands go to unbutton his jeans.

I swallow, and my eyes widen when he doesn’t stop, not even when he unzips the damn thing. Did he not respect the woman inside here with him, me?

He pauses and finally turns to look at me. My body turns to stone when he walks over to me so that our bodies are inches apart. His chest is staring straight at me, and I try my best not to look at the scar again.

“Are you just going to stand there in your towel and watch me undress?” He asks. Why does his voice seem so familiar to me? Why do I want to listen to him over and over again? What

ave with Adam?Twish someone could tell me. Even like this, when he’s next to me, I keep thinking that this isn’t the first time. I keep thinking that my body wants to hold him close and never let go. These feelings are driving me insane since it shouldn’t be this way. Lord knows how much this man irritates me, so even the thought of me ever wanting him sounds ridiculous in my head.

“Why do I feel like I know you?” I whisper before I can stop myself.

Why does my heart feel like it’s in tears whenever I’m this close to you? I don’t ask that second question aloud, but I want to. There are so many questions that I want to ask, but I’m too scared that I’ll sound crazy for asking them.

Adam steps closer to me and leans me up against the bathroom counter. His hands are placed on the mirror behind me, and I gasp when his arms brush the sides of my breasts. Even that touch feels so familiar to me.

Suddenly, I’m dying to be held by him, to feel his lips on mine. I’m not sure if he’s feeling the same way as me, but he isn’t saying anything at all.

“Amiera?”

Tjump when I hear my mother call my name. I step away from Adam and run out of the bathroom before she can see us like this together.

What just happened between us?

My skin still tingled, and lord knows how much I wanted him to kiss me in there. My mother finds me in my towel and possibly shaking head to toe.
