Chapter
57 Audrey & Edwin Audrey's POV
I stared at Edwin in disbelief as he adjusted the wine-stained scarf around his neck. "You can't be serious," I said, reaching. out to tug at the fabric. "It's completely ruined. Let me make you a new one."
Edwin shook his head, an uncharacteristic smile playing on his lips. "I like this one, Audrey. It has character."
"Character?" I scoffed, giving the scarf another pull "It looks like I spilled a bottle of Merlot on it."
As I tugged on the scarf, it unexpectedly pulled Edwin closer. He stumbled forward, his hand slamming into the wall above my head to steady himself. Suddenly, we were face to face, mere inches apart. I could smell the alcohol on his breath, mingling with his cologne. It made my head spin-or maybe that was just the drinks I'd had earlier.
"Careful." Edwin murmured, his eyes trailing over my throat before landing on mine. "You might pull me right off my feet.
I swallowed hard, very aware of how close we were. "Sorry," I whispered... But I must not have been that sorry after all, because I didn't let go of the scarf.
For a moment, we just stood there, frozen. I could feel the heat radiating from Edwin's body, see the way his chest rose and fell with each breath. The rational part of my brain was screaming at me to step back, to put some distance between us. Bur the alcohol in my system had other ideas.
Before I could stop myself, I used the scarf to tug Edwin even closer, pressing my lips against his. For a split second, he tensed, and I thought I'd made a terrible mistake,
But then he was kissing me back, his hands finding my waist and pulling me flush against his body.
I moaned softly into his mouth as his fingers slipped beneath the hem of my shirt, skimming along the bare skin of my waist. The scarf was bunched between us, partially hiding our faces from view in the dimly lit hallway.
It was reckless and s**d, but I couldn't bring myself to care. All I could focus on was the feeling of Edwin's lips on mine, his wide hands exploring my body.
But then, just as things were starting to heat up, Edwin suddenly pulled away. He stumbled back a few steps, his eyes wide and conflicted. And before I could say anything, he turned and disappeared into the crowd, the scarf still wrapped around his neck.
1 leaned against the wall, trying to catch my breath. What had I done? I had kissed Edwin-my boss, my mentor. We had made a promise that we would never make a mistake like that again, and yet he had kissed me back.
But then he had run away. I groaned, sliding down the wall to sit on the floor.
