already have so much going on in my head. There’s the meeting this afternoon. Carmella’s desperation to see me and even he fact that Frank is now bearing the brunt of all this. It should be all enough to keep me occupied, but there’s Vanessa, who ust keeps drawing my gaze back to her while she looks around at the jewelry after we step into my sister’s store.

she’s obviously focused on whatever she’s looking at, which is why she casually leans forward but for me, all I can see is the outline of her curves. I know I shouldn’t even look, but I just can’t help it.

Had she worn a different dress, would the situation be different?

While I lead her to the elevator, I wrap my arm around her waist and it feels like it’s been so long since I held her like this. It’s because I’ve been trying to keep a distance but now, here we are.

As soon as we enter the office, I know Sophie’s closely observing so if she plans to tell our parents, I’ll definitely give her something to talk about.

I rise to my feet and stand right in front of Vanessa so she can give me the box. The moment she looks up, it takes everything in me to keep a blank expression and not show how surprised I am. There’s a look in her eyes I’ve never seen. before and I don’t know how to explain it.

As I stand behind her while we’re in front of the mirror, my hands come in contact with her hair and damn, it’s so silky, and soft that I’d touch it all day if I could. I don’t think I’ve ever touched it like this before.

Then, she arches her back a little and I know it’s because of my movements with her hair. This just makes me look down at her ass, which isn’t even a full inch away from coming in contact with my crotch

It then gets a little difficult for me as I make my first attempt at putting the necklace around her neck since I have to keep my eyes on her neck and collarbone. Since she’s in a strapless dress, my eyes naturally drop to her bust area. Fuck. Maybe I shouldn’t have decided to do this just so I could show off.

Suddenly, she rests her back against my chest the moment I move my face closer to the side of her neck, and I feel her ass against my crotch. I swallow hard, placing my hands on her shoulders so I can speak to her and put an end to what I’m feeling right now,

Before I can even part my lips, I finally look at her in the mirror and it’s only now I realize her eyes are closed. Have they been this way this whole time?

“Don’t you want to see how the necklace looks on you?” I ask, taking a slight step back so I don’t feel her ass anymore.

As soon as she opens her eyes, her expression seems so intense. It even seems like her cheeks have turned a little pink, but I must be thinking too much. It’s just her makeup.

“You look beautiful,” I say to her, looking at the whole view of her in the mirror, and I think I mean it.

“Thank you.” Her voice is barely above a whisper and while being so close, I can tell that her breath is a little uneven.

Then, she looks over her shoulder to face me, and I get a closer look at the intense expression in her eyes even though they widen a little. She parts her lips to speak but can’t seem to actually do it. Even with that, my gaze lingers on them before looking back into her eyes.

I don’t know what to make of this moment, but even if I feel strange, I brought this upon myself.

“Well? Are you going to show me as well?” Sophie chimes in, making me drop my hands from Vanessa’s shoulders.

Vanessa approaches Sophie with a smile and shows off the necklace. “How do I look?”
