Chapter 133

A Lot That Needs Fixing

He fucks me there.

I don't even get my dress off, and he only manages to free his cock from his pants. We're

entangled, hungry and desperate for each other, so it's heavy, but quick.

I breathlessly pant over his lips as we both come down from our climaxes, and my entire body trembles when he runs his fingers down my neck and spine.

He stands and settles me on the couch, pulling out of me. He straightens his clothes and heads back to his desk, grabbing his laptop as I fix my dress.

"Can we talk about something?"

He stills for a second but composes himself. "Of course."

I continue, choosing my words carefully. "About you and Zaid."
